Les temps sont ptet durs, je veux encourager mais étant amateur de poutine celle-ci ne contenait presque pas de sauce, vraiment ! & quelques morceaux de fromage 🤷🏻. À s'y méprendre avec une barquette de frites? Il faut corriger ça car pour l'instant je ne recommande vraiment pas. Commentaire tardif sur une consommation d'il ya plusieurs semaines.
Restons positifs, lacune facile à corriger !

Seems like a lot of people like this greasy spoon in the neighbourhood. I'm not one of them. Most of the time I pass there people are eating poutine which is probably not the best choice if you're health conscious & might I say... have taste.

My favourite place in Canada I have eaten. May been bias because this is the first & only poutine I've had but it was the best food I've eaten. So delicious & crazy affordable. The staff are lovely & the restaurant has a very cosy welcoming atmosphere.

I went for a poutine at lunchtime. The fries are perfect but it stops there. The cheese is refrigerated & not fresh so it melts & really affects the flavour & texture. The gravy has a nice thick feel but it fell a bit flat on flavour.
The place is an institution & I bet other food is delicious. It's just not the spot if you're looking for the best poutine in the city.

Service is top notch & pricing is decent.

C'est la troisième fois que je vais ici & je suis toujours aussi satisfait du restaurant. Les poutines sont super & le service est excellent. Aucun problème à avoir une table.

C'est mon adresse préférée en ville.

Solide poutine! Sauce pleine de goût, frites bien croustillantes, vrai bacon & fromage frais. Tout était excellent. Petit plus pour la propriétaire, super sympathique & accueillante.

Chez Claudette was recommended by a local friend when we asked the best place to try an authentic poutine while travelling the city. It did not disappoint! The selection of poutines were diverse & all sounded delicious. The poutines themselves had delicious cheese curds with a delightful squeak, the gravy was perfectly savoury, & the fries were perfectly salted & crisp. The staff were also very accommodating with our limited French skills. I would highly recommend Chez Claudette.
