This place is truly a hidden gem. I honestly haven't found anything that comes close to it. Without a doubt, they serve the BEST POUTINE IN MONTREAL.
While I haven't had the chance to try everything on the menu yet, I've had quite a few dishes, & every single one has been phenomenal. You can really tell that the food is made with care & passion.
A huge part of what makes this restaurant special is the chef. He's been there since the very beginning, & after years of visiting, I'm always impressed by how consistent the quality & taste remain. That's something you don't find often.
On top of the amazing food, everyone who works there is incredibly friendly & welcoming. They make you feel right at home every time you visit.
I absolutely love this place & will keep coming back. Highly recommended!

As other recent reviews have pointed out, the fries need to be a little bit crispier for the poutine. We also had another variation with meat & onions which was a lot tastier.

J'aurai aimé rester assez longtemps pour tester toutes les poutines !! Allez y les yeux fermés.

Une des meilleures poutine que j'ai goûté (la toute garnie)

J'ai acheté une poutine classique, la sauce était tiède & visqueuse & n'avait presque aucun goût. C'était désagréable à manger.

C'était une poutine incroyable ! Comment j'ai fait pour ne pas connaître cet endroit avant ?! Les fans de poutine, foncez, ça vaut vraiment le détour !🤤

Calmos sur la sauce : j'aime bien quand il reste quelques frites sèches sur les bords. C'est mon seul petit bémol, car sinon la poutine était excellente !
