Been going to this place for the past 30+ years, every few years or so. During this last visit, I noticed a significant improvement in overall taste & quality. The staff were also so kind & smiley. The poutine was generous with large crispy but chewy fries (not too fried either) & the sauce was light & not too salty. This is a stark difference compared to how it was before: overcooked fries & thick, overly salty sauce.

After asking, the staff shared that the restaurant has been under new management for the past 1.5 years. Would definitely recommend coming by & trying them out again!

It needs love & repairs, especially the wood structures for kids. Take them down if you will not maintain them.
You get what you should expect, hot dogs, burgers, fries, nothing complicated.

No nonsense fast food that's actually fast & good. They don't pretend to be something they're not & they're not charging post-apocalyptic prices for cheeseburgers & fries like so many others.

Edit for 2025: prices are way up.

The food here is overrated. The poutine is expensive for what you get-barely any cheese or sauce. They slice the cheese thinly & hide it under the fries, creating the illusion of a generous portion. If you want your money's worth, go to Votre Maison. It beats this place in terms of price, value, & what a proper poutine should be. Sorry, not sorry.

The owners went out of their way to make sure that this place was kid friendly! 👌 👏 wow . There's an indoor & outdoor playground.
Beautiful water fountain ⛲? as well.
Food is delicious but not much variety. It's straightforward hot dogs, pogos & hamburgers.
Definitely recommend visiting this place when in laval.

The best burgers in town. I visit 1-2 times per week.
They always have the same great taste. Their homemade fries are tasty & crispy.
Very fast service & all the team are super friendly.
They have a nice outside garden with a kids' playing area.
I highly recommend this place.
