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 is described as a retro Montreal casse croûte with a focused, small menu built around smash burgers, a few hot dogs and poutine, and everything made in house from the buns to the sausages, giving a warm, old school diner vibe. The burgers are repeatedly praised for juicy patties, good texture, and expert balance, with standout mentions for the double smash burger and the Tousignant burger with maple ham. The poutine is a frequent highlight, though a few reviewers note portions being small or the gravy more savory than salty, and some say the large size would be better shared. The hot dogs, especially when homemade, are a mixed bag but generally seen as solid, while fries earn compliments for crispness and flavor. The atmosphere is described as charming and casual with fast service and friendly staff, though a minority call out inconsistent or less enthusiastic service. Prices are often described as high for fast food, but many feel the quality and in house touches justify the premium and justify a visit, especially for those craving classic smash burgers and comfort food with a nostalgic edge. Overall, Chez Tousignant looms as a beloved pick for fans of unapologetic, well executed diner style burgers and poutine, even as some visits raise questions about value or consistency.

Chez Tousignant emmène le fast food à un autre niveau. Le prix est un peu plus élevé qu'un fast food traditionnel, mais la nourriture est fraîche, de qualité & fait sur demande. Le hamburger est vraiment bon, la poutine est excellente & il est possible de prendre un bon coke au cerise, quoi demander de mieux?

On aime bien d'habitude le burger de Tousignant & c'est de la bonne « comfort » food donc en ce samedi soir devant un match des canadiens , on a pas hésité. Malheureusement cette fois-ci les proportions des poutines étaient décevantes pour une grande poutine & une poutine régulière, & ce malgré la reconnaissance que « tout coûte plus cher ». La sauce « gravy », un élément si important aux poutines, n'était pas au rendez-vous. En espérant que ce commentaire soit lu comme une critique constructive & que le restaurant ajustera son offre.

Meilleure Poutine de Montréal ! Un service incroyable réalisé pour un serveur (= Arnault) talentueux & sa fine équipe 🤩

This place has the feel of a rearranged American diner with small casse-croute focused menu. I was hungry enough for two items but wasn't feeling a poutine, so I went for a cheeseburger & a hot dog. The pricing here is sensible except for the hot dog, which wasn't particularly special either. The cheeseburger was spectacular, however. Amazing texture, perfect composition. Service wasn't great. The cook was nice but the girls working there could have been friendlier.

La poutine est délicieuse, mais trop petite.

La poutine grande n'est pas même assez pour partager à deux.

& non, je ne suis pas un gros mec qui mange comme un cochon, ou cas ou vous vous en demandiez.

Tu sais, le sentiment de payé trop cher pour quelques chose de très ordinaire, les reviews sont tous tellement positif que j'y suis allé, 10$ le hot dog, 15$ le format de poutine que ma niece de 2 ans aurai encore faim après, petit conseille mes amis, pour la poutine faite griller vos frittes un peu plus & arrêté d'inonder la poutine de sauce, j'ai l'impression de boire une soupe ak des morceaux de pattates molles dedans. J'ai pas essayer le burger, j'avais oublié mon chèquier, mais guys revoyer vos prix & donnez un produit de meilleur qualité. Ambiance quand meme cool soit dit en passant.

Je suis une habituée de Tousignant. Leur poutine est, selon moi, la meilleure en ville. Jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Ma poutine n'était aucunement à la hauteur de ce que ce restaurant m'a habitué au fils des années. Les frites étaient à peine cuite au point où certaines étaient crues à l'intérieur. Manifestement le garçon de cuisine était trop occupé à mansplanner la vie à sa pauvre collègue pour frire les pomme de terre correctement. J'ai malheureusement pris la commande pour emporter & constater le tout une fois à la maison sinon, j'aurais exigé une nouvelle poutine sur le champ. Il me fait plaisir de payer le prix quand la qualité est au rendez-vous, ce qui n'était vraiment pas le cas ce soir, malheureusement.

Un classique du quartier, 100% validé pour un bon burger / poutine

Premium old school dîner vibes where high quality well made food meet their higher than average asking prices.

Had the cheeseburger & poutine. Both were top of the line with no quality compromises.

Worth it for foodies & enjoyers of well made things.

Chez Tousignant nails that nostalgic Montreal casse-croûte vibe, right down to the retro counter & classic menu. The hamburgers & poutine are seriously delicious-comfort food done right. While the prices are a bit on the high side for what you get, the overall experience makes it worth it. A great spot when you're craving that old-school diner feel with quality eats.

Went for a lovely meal late night The place was beautiful. Looks like something from the 50s

burger was absolutely delicious. Poutine was outstanding even the hot dog was the best.

The only thing that I did not like was the attitude of the girl who was taking our order she was not happy. She made a very awful face like she was not happy doing her job or not happy serving us even to huff & puff very inappropriate & because of that I will not be returning again

all they have to say is when you have first time customers entering & they're asking questions about the food or asking for a accommodates
please don't be giving attitude, faces & huffing & puffing it's very unprofessional it is part of your job to serve people & give service
