J'ai passé un bon moment réconfortant chez Claudette les serveurs sont gentils & agréable, c'était ma première poutine & c'était incroyable bon !
Merci les gars !
C'était parfait à tout les niveaux.
Un très large choix de poutine & bien d'autres, un accueil très bienveillant & très chaleureux ! Surtout avec des enfants en bas âge. & puis c'était un simple délice pour un prix plus que correct. Mention spéciale pour la Poutine Cochonne, incroyablement bonne !
A friend & I ordered poutine from Chez Claudette during our weekend trip to Montreal! We ordered the classic poutine. It was pretty good & the fries were soft. I prefer crispy fries with my poutine as a personal preference, but still enjoyed this authentic poutine! I would rate it a 8/10. Staff were very nice & spoke in English & French.

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.
Je vais très souvent la bas & jamais déçu ! Service agréable & poutine super bonne !
J'ai ramené mon ami Guillaume qui a la base n'aime pas les poutines , ici il a adoré !

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.
On est venus en famille pour goûter à la meilleure poutine de Montréal. Nous n'avons pas été déçus. La cochon effiloché, la New Yorkaise & la classique en format petit, ont su nous rassasier. Les serveurs ont été de bons conseils.
I am ruined for poutine now... I will forever crave Chez Claudette. Came back multiple times because I enjoyed my poutine that much. I hope to visit Montreal again so I can have another!
