About

Chenoy's serves authentic Montreal style smoked meat that is cured and spiced according to long-standing traditions. Each serving consists of hand-carved, tender beef piled high onto fresh rye bread, typically accompanied by sharp yellow mustard and crunchy dill pickles.

Patrons encounter a straightforward environment where the focus remains entirely on the quality of the cured meats and the efficiency of the kitchen. Portions are notably substantial, ensuring that every plate delivers a heavy, protein-focused experience characteristic of traditional Jewish delis. The establishment maintains a no-nonsense approach to service, emphasizing quick preparation and the reliable delivery of staple comfort foods that define the local smoked meat culture.

Review Summary

Chenoy's is widely regarded as a classic Montreal deli that serves exceptional smoked meat and hearty breakfast options in a nostalgic, diner-style atmosphere. Many visitors appreciate the generous portion sizes, flavorful meat that is often described as tender and high-quality, and the efficient, friendly service provided by a welcoming staff. While the restaurant is frequently praised for its consistent value, comfort food, and timeless appeal, some feedback points to the need for facility updates and interior renovations to match the quality of the meals. Despite occasional inconsistencies in food preparation or hygiene concerns noted by a minority of guests, the establishment remains a popular local destination for families and long-time patrons seeking an authentic and affordable deli experience.

We went to Chenoy's this afternoon. We had top service by your Sara Feldman. We have gone many times before. But she is exceptionally great. Thank you Sara Kohar K.

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.

We hadn’t been to Chenoy’s in a couple
of years.The food (especially the old fashioned smoked meat)was as good as ever.The service was exceptional.Our server,Lavera did everything but cartwheels to make sure we had a good dining experience.
We would return for the food,of course but being served by Lavera again would be the cherry on Chenoy’s amazing cheesecake.

First let me start off with : I know now why all Chenoy's have slowly closed everywhere.Walked in on a Friday late afternoon into a morgue.Was seating & preceded to order a "Jumbo" old fashioned smoked meat plate at $19.99.The drinks & fries came first then the punchline of a joke came.The sandwich i got didn't even resemble a regular size , i took a pic.When i put the rye bread on the meat & held it , it had about 1 inch of meat.I've never complained about food in my life but this was just straight mocking the customer to my face.I called over the waitress & asked: "Does this look like a "Jumbo" sandwich ?" I said "What does the regular sandwich look like?"She has the audacity to say "Smaller than that".I took the picture & got up & walked out of that miserable place.Mocking your customers will only close the place down faster , which i hope it does & therefore put it out of its misery.Went to La Belle Province & had 2 bigger sandwiches for $3.00 more ($23)Mark my words this place will follow in the footsteps of the other Chenoy's .....Don't waste your time or money.

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.

We were in the mood for deli & had never ordered at Chenoy's. The person taking my order was very friendly & our order was perfect. Definitely, best smoked meat sandwich I ever had, the meat is lean, not salty & melts in your mouth. The fries & coleslaw were good & so was the Club sandwich with real tasty chicken. Happily surprised!
