Review Summary

Décarie Hot Dog stands as a historic and beloved Montreal institution, cherished by generations for its nostalgic charm and classic fast-food staples. Many patrons frequent this cozy, vintage spot for their iconic steamies, crispy fries, and hearty, generous portions that offer great value. The staff is widely regarded as friendly and welcoming, creating an environment that feels like home for regulars who have been visiting for decades. While the establishment enjoys a strong reputation for consistency and a warm atmosphere, some feedback points to occasional inconsistencies in food quality, particularly regarding the poutine sauce, which some find overly peppery or not to their taste, and intermittent issues with service speed or payment methods. Despite these mixed remarks, the majority of visitors view it as a must-visit local treasure that captures the authentic spirit of a traditional snack bar.

A place you can count on to always be the same

Starting coming here as a kid in the 70's. Food, service were always fantastic! Today's visit was a complete disappointment. Hot dogs were good -can't really mess that up, but the poutine was nasty. Cold fries, a very thick & congealed gravy, & minimal cheese. The cheese didn't even melt. Definitely not the quality I was used to. These workers were definitely not the family owners. Sadly, I probably won't be back

Was my first time going there after a long day at work & service was super fast, very affordable. Was surprised my food cost me $29 for the amount I has. ( it was a lot & delicious) & as I was waiting i read their poster on the wall & was really touched by the one where we pay for a meal & people can come claim it. This is a business that care about people & the perfectionnism. Definitely gonna go back

I've been going here since 1995, & I went today after 30 years. & it still hasn't changed, & the people are still there family to family. it's wonderful to see the nostalgia & the unchanging business, but with the same quality food.

I've eaten here for as long as I can remember since I was a child. The food is always good, people are always nice & the quality has always been great! Best hotdogs in the city!

Other than the prices, the rest is pretty much unchanged since 1980 when I first started going there. I haven't yet found better steamy hot-dogs & fries in Montreal.
