I stopped here after work in a rush, & I couldn't believe how great the food & the service was. I made a mistake when ordering & they were understanding & kind. The poutine was so delicious that I may make this my go to spot!!

La poutine était très bonne, mais peu de fromage. Tout le reste était bien!

I got the classic & my husband got the Marilyn. The fries were flavourful & I enjoyed the gravy. I personally prefer a more crispy fry for my poutine, but these were not soggy either per se. There could've been more cheese. But the cheese that was there had a nice pull. Overall, I enjoyed my poutine.

Best poutine ever, fries not frozen, super nice server woman. Huge choice of poutines. Real cheese that makes cute sounds when chewed (chwik chwik), real brown sauce (& others). I can't add photos, I couldn't resist it.

Si la devanture & l'intérieur ont un certain âge, les lieux restent sans nul doute parmi les meilleurs de la ville pour la poutine. La carte offre un large choix, les portions sont généreuses & elles sont très bien préparées. Meilleure place de poutine du quartier & des environs.

Favourite poutine in la ville. Old school sit in or takeaway place with a great ambience. Prices went up a bit but still affordable.
