Eating here was an absolute disgusting experience. It took 20 mins to be served, we weren't offered anything to drink, when we finally received drinks that we requested the cans were greasy, it was an issue to ask for new drinks & overall it seemed like we were bothering them to be properly served. When we finally received our food which were poutines & a burger, the burger was raw in the middle this was after the frozen burger was microwaved. When I mentioned to the main cook that the burger was raw in the middle & the excuse was that its 3 o'clock in the morning. I have never received such subpar low level service. I will let never eat from this establishment again. & if you value your health you shouldn't either.

Owner selectively treats customers like potential dine & dashers, my companion & I were both asked to pay BEFORE receiving our food, a policy that the other customers seemed to be exempt from. I've never been treated this disrespectfully in any dining establishment before, to have this happen in a mediocre greasy spoon is pure comedy.

Everyone is friendly. Food was quick to get to the table. Poutine was good. Nothing spectacular but a solid poutine.

Might be the best cheesesteak in Canada... & squeaky cheese curd poutine... if the cheese curds don't squeak you know the poutine is weak.

There is nothing that completes my night out more than ending it at AA with the best poutine in Montreal!!! The owner is the most hardworking restaurateur serving the community since 1968😄 A must try.

Old school greasy spoon which you don't see much of anymore. The owner, an incredible man from the old school, who has owned the restaurant for several decades & clearly has dedicated his life to this place & his family. Amazing establishment, a must for anyone that wants to feel what it means to be Quebecer & Canadian.
