If you don't know, you need to. Amazing Poutine! Some of Montreal's finest. If you haven't tried you need to. Make sure you get the smoked meat on top if you're not vegetarian.

Finally decided to give it a try & ordered the Dunn's famous poutine. Food is not bad, they open pretty late & the location is great. But the service is pretty none existent. After sitting down for 10 mins couldn't figure out who's our waiter/waitress & had to ask the host. Overall good as drunk food.

Tried the poutine here & it was absolutely amazing! The fries were crispy, the cheese curds were fresh & squeaky, & the gravy was rich & full of flavor. A true Canadian classic done perfectly! Highly recommend if you're craving comfort food.

This place closes after midnight. We got to our hotel around 11pm, this was one of few options we had. & I'm glad we went there. Their smoked meat is hands-down one of the bests. We shared a smoked club sandwich, asked to upgrade our fries with normal poutine, Louisiana soup & french onion soup. Everything was delicious. Their smoked meat & french onion were amazing. I didn't care for it. I don't was it, but I have to mention that I never had it before, so I can't be a good judge of poutine.

Smoked meat poutine was decent. Definitely not the best I have had in Montreal. Personally think Schwartz's is better than Dunn's. Strawberry cheesecake was pretty good. The table they sat us at is not suitable for two; it is cramped & too small. Staff was nice.
