Chez Tousignant Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
Casse-Croute (Snack Bar)BurgersPoutineComfort Food
It’s fast food, but made to order. The result of a late-night chat, and a handful of cooks. Who wanted to put the salt back in the butter. A bag of cheese curds that goes with supper. Assembled hot dogs, made proper. And fine toppings on a beautiful burger. But! You must order from the counter, and get up again when it’s ready to gather, except on weekends, and only for coffee (maybe with sugar). Prepared like it was meant to be, no fodder. You can arrive here hither or thither, it really doesn’t matter. Even better. Tous, chez Tousignant.

Review Summary

Chez Tousignant comes across in reviews as a nostalgic Montreal casse-croute with a retro diner vibe where burgers are the centerpiece, the double cheese burger and house-made hot dogs along with a standout poutine drawing frequent praise. The buns are described as soft, the fries well made, and the in-house sausages give a distinct flavor to the hot dogs. Burgers are often called juicy and well balanced, with the texture of the patties and the overall flavor a highlight, though several comments mention portions that feel small and toppings that can be overly saucy. Prices are a recurring topic, with many noting that the food is tasty but pricey for what is offered and some saying value can be inconsistent. Service is described as friendly and efficient by many, but a few reviews report uneven attitudes or longer waits, affecting the overall experience. Taken together, the reviews present a popular destination for burger and poutine lovers who value nostalgia and quality ingredients, while reminding potential visitors to consider price and occasional variability in portion size or execution.

Le meilleur double smash burger sans prétention à Montréal.

Tried the double cheese burger. It was fine but expensive & in the end I didn't like it very much, it felt just like a brick of calories with no flavor contrast or texture contrast to me. Maybe all that cheese fusing the meat together didn't help. Maybe I'm just not really into smash burgers.

Montreal has some serious smash burgers game & I must say, Chez Tousignant, is a big player, had a double cheese burger & it did not disappoint at all, from the juicy perfectly seasoned patties to the home cut fries😀
Keep up the good work guys👍👍

So glad I got the Double Cheeseburger. Don't settle for single patty.
Buns - had the perfect texture/chew for the patties
Patties - crispy edges, juicy, beefy
Cheese, sauce, toppings all perfectly balanced
The seasoning tasted like a unique blend of spices - the secret ingredient that gave this burger depth.
Really good burger, will definitely return.

J'y suis allé en 2018, j'étais a l'époque convaincu d'avoir mangé le meilleur smash burger de Montréal. Un offre qui se rapprochais d'un burger de la chaîne in & out en Californie. Le rêve! J'y aurais donné un 5 étoiles a l'époque. Aujourd'hui victime de l'inflation & de la réduflation, leur offre est trop chère & la quantité trop petite pour leurs prix. Le goût est bon, mais la taille est franchement ridicule pour un double cheese burger. On le retrouve tout petit dans son papier, l'air triste. J'ai cherché le pain sous la galette tellement il était mince. Bien loin de mes souvenirs de 2018. Les ingrédients sont p-e de tres bonne qualité & le pain fait maison, mais cela ne justifie en aucun cas leur prix. On parle de fast food ici, & a 17$(14$+taxes) le double cheese petit qui n'inclus ni breuvage ni frites c'est a se demander si on nous ris pas en pleine face

Went with my son. He had the Tousignant poutine. It was good but small for 18$. I took the double burger. It was very good. I would of probably eaten 2. They also have beers. Seating arrangements are a little tight. Staff was friendly.

Went there for the first time. Tried the double cheese burger & the Tousignant burger. Both were very good sized considering smash burgers are often very small. Both were very satisfying but the double cheeseburger was a tad salty. Also tried the regular poutine & it was very good. Fries, cheese curds & gravy were well put together. Perfect ratios. Regular hot dog was good also but does not taste like a regular hot dog. I think the meat was chicken. I don't usually order hot dogs but wanted to try it. I wish they had onion rings. I would definitely go back as the food was very satisfying at a reasonable price & the quality of the ingredients was apparent. The service was also excellent & friendly.

double cheeseburger: amazing with special sauce. Frites sauce also top notch. Poutines are a must try. Bonus to have a local beer as well!

My favourite burger joint in Montreal. The patties are crispy & juicy, perfectly toasted bun, toppings complement the beefiness of the meat. I always get the double cheese but I mistakenly ordered the wrong item yesterday. The very friendly & warm staff promptly made generous accommodations for me & made sure that I enjoyed my meal. Very grateful & glad I came here for the last meal in Montreal on this trip. Looking forward to returning again!
