Dunn's Famous consistently receives high praise for its iconic Montreal smoked meat, which many diners describe as tender, flavorful, and available in customizable fat levels to suit individual preferences. While the menu offers a wide variety of diner-style classics like poutine, latkes, and cheesecake, experiences with service and food consistency can occasionally vary between locations. Most patrons appreciate the generous portions and the efficient, friendly nature of the staff, often highlighting the welcoming atmosphere for both late-night meals and group gatherings. Although some visitors note concerns regarding pricing, portion sizes, or occasional lapses in service quality, the majority of reviewers view the establishment as a reliable, classic destination for authentic comfort food.
Great food the Dunn's poutine was a big portion & quite filling. The fries were crispy & the sauce was good & the smoked me is on point. Service was good as well with my server checking in for refills & to make sure the food was to my taste. The atmosphere is clean & classic looking but I find the music is a little loud for the environment & to be able to converse with others.
This Dunn's has the best food from all the franchise, the service is always welcoming & efficient. Everything we tried from the salads to the smoked meat was great. I love that you can choose if you want your smoked meat lean, medium or fat. I usually don't like smoked meat because it is overly salted & too fat, but I got a bagel sandwich with lean smoked meat & it was amazing; the meat was buttery soft, not excessively salty & just the right amount of fat to my liking! Their poutines are also great, with a nice dark sauce & lots of cheese. Also, I couldn't leave without getting the warm cookie with ice cream for dessert, my favorite!
Although the food is a little pricey, the thai chicken salad was delicious & the service was great. Our waiter was always available if we wanted more sauces or water.

Je suis une fanatique de ce resto bien avant le Covid, depuis 2006 environ. Quand je demandais un sandwich extra maigre la viande ce défesait tout seul & tombait dans l'assiette, j'adorais. J'y suis retourner, il y a 2 semaine tard le soir, toujours aussi achalandé 👌🏻 Mais mon smoked meat netait plus le meme, les tranches restaient en tranche (extra maigre) Excellent service Rapide & que dire de leur POTAGES DE PATATES & fromages, échalottes, dans une sauce crémeuse.😱 moi qui deteste les salades & potage de patates c'est le seul endroit ou je m'en régale 🤤 VOUS NE POUVEZ PAS NE PAS GOÛTER AU POTAGES !!! ☺️👌🏻💥
La nourriture est bonne, mais la poutine a toujours très peu de sauce. Ce n'est pas une poutine, mais des frites au smoked meat. C'est dommage. À chaque fois que je commande la poutine, il n'y a presque pas de sauce. Je recommande les burgers, mais pas la poutine.
Boff, je pense pas recommander labas, j'ai utilisé Uber eats pour une commande de fin de soirée & boff la nourriture m'a déçu, j'avais pris une poutine, 1èrement on dirait que les frites étais déjà prête depuis un bout, & il se sont surment dit ; oh avec un peux de sauce & du fromage on verra rien... mais WRONG!! Ça se voit & ca se goûte 😠 ensuite 10$ pour 8 petite ailes de poulet avec en coin une petite salade pas fraîche 😔😒 j'ai vraiment l'impression d'avoir perdu mon argent
le smoked meat à l'ancienne, les frites & la salade de chou,,,
je ne commande jamais de smoked meat donc je ne peux pas comparer avec d'autres endroits mais là j'avais envie de ça & je ne l'ai pas regretté, c'était très bon (tiède mais bon),,, j'adore aussi la salade de chou de ce resto qui est sucrée!!
Point très négatif:
le spaghetti!!!!!
vraiment à éviter!!!!! les pâtes sont beaucoup trop cuites, il y avait de l'eau dans le fond de l'assiette & on a dû redemander de la sauce car un coup mélangé, c'est devenu un spaghetti blanc!!!!
la sauce, soit-dit en passant, ressemble pas mal à la sauce genre catelli en canne!!!!!
le service était correct & rapide, rien à redire, mais pas exceptionnel!!
