Came here for some late-night food. Hands down one of best poutines you can find in the city. Also, their club sandwich is a must-have. Without a doubt, Chez Claudette will be my go-to place whenever I visit Montreal.

Some of the best poutine in Montreal. The gravy is strong, thick, well-spiced, & fills every crevice of the plate. The curds are squeaky, firm, but still tasty. The fries are where Chez Claudette becomes contentious. Double-fried, a bit smaller, & crunchier & more uniform in size than your classic poutine, they are a matter of taste. I felt that they matched the gravy & curds well, though they were not my typical style.

The staff & look of the place (not to mention the washroom) are not exactly friendly, but feel cozy & fitting in their own uncanny way. Not to say the staff were not polite & professional in every way, but it may be a bit of a surprise depending on where you are from.
