Review Summary

Chenoy's is described as a classic Montreal smoked meat deli with a nostalgic old school vibe, where generous portions, a reliable smoked meat experience, and friendly service meet in a setting felt to be timeless and comfortable for groups and families, with ample parking and approachable prices. Many reviews praise the juicy, well seasoned smoked meat, big plates, and a menu that has something for everyone, along with solid breakfast options and a welcoming interior that evokes a true Montreal deli atmosphere. The interior is repeatedly praised as charming and nostalgic, while the service is often highlighted as attentive and helpful. Some feedback notes inconsistencies, including lean cuts with little flavor, fries that are underwhelming, and desserts like cheesecake that can be dry, as well as occasional delays or communication gaps. Overall, Chenoy's remains a West Island staple for those seeking the classic deli experience and a sense of tradition, backed by loyal regulars who keep returning despite the occasional flaw.

As a young adult, Chenoy's was one of the only restaurants that was open late, or 24/7. After clubbing, it was the place to go & grab a bite before heading home. That was some time ago, & it hasn't changed. The old-fashioned smoke meat is exactly the same. Served warm on rye bread with yellow mustard. I ordered the combo, so the sandwich plate had fries, coleslaw, & a crunchy pickle. To be honest, the meal was very good except for the fries. They weren't quite cooked enough. The inside & outside were cold & limp. Not the best. We did enjoy our lunch. Service was quick, so it's the perfect place to go for a business/work lunch hour.

This place hasn't changed in 25 years. Biggest Matzoh ball I've ever seen. Old fashioned smoked meat is on point. Has a very cool old-timer feel.

Great place. Hasn't changed since the 80's. But still great. The only thing I could offer them in terms of improvement - slice the smoked meat thinner. This is a personal preference as the smoked meat was delicious.

Excellent milkshakes, thick & creamy.
Fries were delicious, burger was pretty good too. Service was great as well.

*Updated #2 I enjoyed my dinner so much last time I came back this week, I ordered a grilled chicken it was juicy & perfectly cooked, the bun however was overcooked. I also asked for cheese to be added to my chicken burger there was a charge of $3 for 1 piece of cheese. This time the fries were frozen kind, not good at all. Not sure how the fries can change from week to week Disappointed cause they were really good last time. Once again the service was great.

This restaurant does feel like it's stuck in a time warp, nothing has changed over the years except the prices. Needs an update, & I found it a bit dingy too. Bathrooms are the worst extremely small - broken down - no handicap washroom either.

We just ate at Chenoys on St. Jean in the west island. We wanted a good smoked meat sandwich sorely disappointed.

First, there was none of the dry old fashioned smoked meat again, so we ordered the regular spicy one. Unfortunately the meat was cut too thick, but the real disappointment was that they changed the bread they used to use & replaced the rye with a new flimsy toast style bread. It just turned to mush on the sandwich, had a different flavour that didn't fit with the sandwich, & the whole flavor was off. Service was fine though & that was the only good thing.

The smoked meat sandwich was a real disappointment after being so much better for 30 years.

If this is what they will continue do in the future, we'll go elsewhere like Moe's, Smoked Meat Pete's, & Abys which all have better smoked meat sandwiches than Chenoy's now.
