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.
The waiter was rude. I showed him what I wanted to order on the menu & he made me repeat it 4 times like a 5 year old in front of my friends. Also'tip' &'taxes' are not the same. A tip is if you're respectful & I want to give you a little something extra. It's not mandatory. Taxes are mandatory. I'm never going back there again. At least at Marathons I actually feel welcomed there because the employees are nice there & want to serve you! & they don't rush you & make you feel like an idiot when ordering something from the menu. The food was alright but I want to be respected if I'm a cash paying customer. Not treated like shit.
C'est l'un de mes restaurants préférés & je viens de lire que les excréments de souris sont partout dans la cuisine sur vaisselle & ustensiles en 2022 & 2023 avec 7200$ d'amendes. EST CE QUE CEST RÉGLÉ? Ca veut quand même dire que j'y suis allé souvent a l'époque & j'aurais mieux fait de ne rien manger...

L'institution de l'ouest de Montréal Chenoy a été fermée en urgence en 2022 par les inspecteurs après une infestation de souris, qui lui ont depuis collé quatre amendes pour la présence de vermine.
Every year my Hockey pool puckers come here twice a year. & it's a great place..its quiet. Lady waitress always friendly & many love the smoke meat pizza...the food is great ..no complaints at all..that's why we keep coming back 6 years in a row. & will continue our journey their...Heads up.Servixe & food is great
This is just to remind myself not to go there again. The gentleman whobserved me was very pleasant. I ordered at 11:38 & got my food at 11:48hrs. The French fries were like I microwaved them from the night before & were scarce. Pickle & coleslaw were fresh. I specifically asked for medium fat & received the leanest smoke meat I have ever been served....not happy. Also, the meat had NO flavour. The only zip from the sandwich was from some extraneous pepper. For the price I should have gone to yagel bagel, microwaved the meat & ate my pickles from home. For the price? Meh & naw...

Ordered 1 Exprees Smoked Meat sandwich & 1 Chicken Strips Express. Was told the strips would take a bit to make, happy to here instead of waiting with no communication. All was excellent.
