Myer Dunn founded Dunn's Famous Restaurant in 1927. Due to my grandfather's unique recipes and high quality standards, Dunn's Famous quickly became a local institution for Montrealers and visitors alike.
In keeping with the Dunn's Famous tradition, I invite you to visit one of our locations and experience what montrealer's have been raving about for years.

Dunn's Famous is seen as a dependable spot for smoked meat with consistently flavorful meat, generous portions, and quick service, though some visits note that the poutine can be underwhelming and a few plates are drier or greasier than hoped, while the prices can feel high to some diners. The menu is varied and praised for creative uses of smoked meat beyond classic sandwiches, with desserts like strawberry cheesecake often highlighted as a standout, and sides such as fries receiving mixed remarks. Service is described as friendly, attentive, and efficient by many, though a few experiences mention slower pacing or timing issues, depending on the crowd. Ambience ranges from stylish table designs and warm welcomes to calls for refreshing the decor at certain locations, but the overall impression is that the restaurant delivers solid food and good value for portions. Taken together, Dunn's Famous earns praise for its signature smoked meat and generous servings while inviting occasional critique on specific items and price, making it a go to choice for smoked meat lovers seeking a reliable dining experience.
Opened my 25 dollar sandwich & it was unrecognizable very very sand that no one knows how to put a peice of bread then the insides then another peice of bread
Très belle accueil, Température un peu froide a l'intérieur de l'établissement, excellent service, efficace, souriante & discrète(pas achalantte). pas vraiment d'ambiance & prix un peut dispendieux.
Très belle ambiance lors de nos after meetings. Patricia est d'une accueil incroyable! Tellement gentille & à l'écoute de nos commandes! Le repas est délicieux, le café est d'une pure merveille 🩷 & puis, que dire de la fameuse croustade aux pommes, aussi délicieuse dans l'esprit que dans le goûter! 😋💕
J'adore ce restaurant, super service avec un grand menu toutes les uns meilleurs que les autres. Pour les amateurs de smoke meat, c'est un des meilleurs endroits.
