Chez L'Gourmand is described as a charming family run spot by the water where a charismatic hands on owner handles the cooking with real care. The menu features handmade burgers, especially the Gros Gourmand, hearty poutine, house made fries, smoked meat sandwiches, chicken sandwiches, fish and chips, and even pizza. Reviews praise the warm, friendly service and the owner who makes guests feel at home, with many notes about excellent value for quality and a welcoming atmosphere. The food is often highlighted as fresh and flavorful, with standout components like the burgers, poutine with rich gravy and squeaky cheese curds, and crispy fries, though a few comments mention occasional undercooked fries or portions that feel small for the price. Overall the impression is highly positive with frequent returns and strong recommendations to try the menu at this waterfront spot.
Nous avons pris un sandwich poulet croustillant, un Burger L'gourmand & une petite poutine porc effilochée, c'était excellent ! On sent le fait maison & la poutine est devenue notre numéro 1. L'accueil de André est super chaleureux foncez !

♾?/10 excellent meilleur poutine que j'ai mangé de ma vie frite bien moelleuse cuit dans l'huile de boeuf & le propriétaire est très drôle & sympathique je vous recommande tous se merveilleux restaurant c'est incroyable merci beaucoup
Le restaurant Burger L'Gourmand était exactement ce à quoi je m'attendais. Un vrai burger avec de la vraie viande fraîche, des garnitures de qualité, simples & santé - rien de commercial. Ça goûte comme un BBQ maison, mais version restaurant.
On sent que le cuisinier fait ça avec passion. Tout est parfait : le goût, la rapidité du service, & l'organisation. La cuisine est ouverte, on voit tout se faire devant nous, & le service est très sympathique.
Qualité-prix très abordable ! Pour deux personnes, j'ai pris un double cheeseburger & ma conjointe un cheeseburger, avec une poutine assez grosse pour partager & deux boissons - le tout pour 58$ tip inclus. Franchement, c'est un très bon prix pour de la cuisine maison de cette qualité.
Honnêtement, je ferais n'importe quel détour pour revenir manger ici. Un des meilleurs burgers en ville !
First time trying this place, called for pick up, was ready in 10 min, very nice owner & staff, & the food was delicious & very reasonably priced! Will be going back many times. Extra points for having the old Scottish flags up on the wall as well!
Très belle découverte. Accueil sympathique & que dire de la nourriture: nous avons adoré. Les frites étaient excellentes . Le sandwich au poulet pané un délice.
Super nice local place. Came here on a 5 hour layover from the airport. Guy was super friendly, spoke English & French & was happy to chit chat. The poutine was good & very much enjoyed the sandwich. Accepts card. Didn't see wifi advertised but didn't ask.
J'ai essayé le burger Gourmand! Exceptionnels burgers & frites, le propriétaire est super sympathique & prend ça très à coeur! Merci encore, je serai assurément de retour bientôt!!
I think I have officially had the best lunch experience in my life right in this spot. The owner (one man show) is the greatest example of the most genuine best hard working chef in Canada. The whole lunch was an experience I will not soon forget. Great conversations with the owner, other patrons in the restaurant & you almost forget how delicious the food is he prepares for you with the most care & quality one can offer. Thank you Chef, this was an incredible experience for me & my friend, keep up the great work, & don't ever retire;). You made our trip from Toronto to Montreal 1000% worth it.
Stopped by here during my shift because I saw all the reviews & it wasn't too far out of my way. I ordered the smoked meat sandwich & I cannot recommend it enough (the fries were great also)!
I wasn't in the store for long but André gave good, fast service & was great ro speak to. I'll definitely be eating here again if I have the chance

One of the best burger place I have had the pleasure to try. It was delicious, brioche bread, made in house patty (all meat no filler) in a friendly & welcoming atmosphere by the owner/operator. It will be for my wife & I our go to Burger joint from now on.
Absolutely fell in love with this restaurant! The food is INCREDIBLE & André is so kind & passionate about what he does. He gave excellent recommendations & made everything in house (very quickly!!). The poutine might be my new favourite in the city… We will definitely be back as need to try the whole menu! Thank you André!
