Ricotta pancakes with strawberries - best pancakes I tried in North America! This place is famous for bbq meats, brisket especially, but everything else they offer is equally delicious! Really happy they opened permanent shop at Atwater market.

J'ai pris les pancakes riccotta avec les fraises & un thé. Le service était très vite & smooth. Le highlight du repas devrait être le sirop qui venait avec les pancakes. Il était léger, très liquide, avec un arôme citronné ou floral. J'avais envie de demander c'était quoi. Les pancakes étaient bien mais j'aurais aimé que le contour soit crispy. Overall j'ai aimé mon expérience & j'y retournerai! Contente d'avoir cet établissement dans le quartier.

A must-try for locals & tourists. Aylwin BBQ has consistently been serving the best brisket in Montreal for years. Adding deli options like Montreal smoked meat through a year-round location indoors is an awesome move. They put the smoke in smoked meat.

I like Aylwin Deli. I just have no idea what it is supposed to be. It's laid out like a cafe. It's called a Deli. But the menu is not a deli menu except for a few items...& it's listed as a BBQ restaurant. Despite the conceptual confusion, the food here is pretty good & well priced. I had the ricotta pancakes, which isn't a common item & this was the least I recall paying for the dish in Montreal. The guy behind the counter provided amazing service. All of the seating is hightop counter seating, which I don't love but since I was alone this time anyways it was fine.

Super chill staff & the food is amazing

The reuben sandwich is to die for 🤤 It has medium fat meat, melted cheese & choucroute.

The brisket is not bad but the Reuben really stole the show & i'll be back for more. Their fries are very good as well. I'll be back for more & I will have to try their poutine as both the meat & the fries are amazing!

I recommend this spot. They also have breakfast items which I did not get a chance to try but seemed very good from what I saw in people's plates.
