Je boycotte ce restaurant depuis presque 3 ans. On m'a servi un repas qui sentait tellement mauvais que je ne l'ai pas mangé, le chef arrogant ne voulait pas y goûter. De plus, je demeure tout près & il y a toujours des gens qui ont vomis dégueulés, c'est pas bon signe.
De grâce la Banquise est peut-être plus long mais pas comparable.

Le service était sympathique & accueillant. Le menu est vaste & original & plusieurs choix semblent très bons! Plusieurs alternatives végétariennes de burgers sont aussi offerts.
J'ai essayé la poutine tandoori. Elle était assez bonne, mais elle aurait pu être excellente si les frites avait été meilleures. Je n'ai pas tant aimé les frites que j'ai trouvé trop foncées & trop huileuses (je soupçonne qu'on n'ait pas changé l'huile dans laquelle on fait cuire les frites depuis trop longtemps).

I loved their food; having had the vege club sandwich. It was absolutely delicious! Prices were very reasonable too!
Service was poor. We waited at the front not knowing if we should be seated or not, we ended up walking in & got stopped by the waitress who was a little rude, telling us which table to take. Waiting time for food was decent. But once again, every time the waitress came to serve us she was not pleasant.
We had gone for dinner & it was very very loud, seeing as though from Wednesday to Saturday it's open 24hrs, people who drink in the neighbourhood go to Chez Claudette for their after drinks fast food. So if you,re looking for a calm place, I wouldn't recommend it.
All in all, the food was amazing, & I'd probably go back for it.

Ce resto de quartier est presqu'une institution à Montréal. Ce resto offre des déjeuners exquis avec fruits (voire même cochon selon notre choix), une poutine à tomber pas terre, un menu du jour toujours apprécié & du junk food bien apprêté... comme un bon 'greasy spoon' doit le faire.

Ma compagne & moi aimons aller régulièrement à ce resto le matin de fins-de-semaine... après une bonne jouissance matinale !

Le resto est simpliste, convivial, paisible... avec un service efficace & des prix raisonnables.

Seul bémol: Le stationnement est un enfer.
