Dunn's Famous is widely regarded as a Montreal landmark for classic smoked meat, with sandwiches that are huge, tender and flavorful, often accompanied by great poutine and crisp fries. The atmosphere blends diner charm with a lively sports bar feel, and the service is typically fast and friendly, making it a reliable late night or post game option. The smoked meat is the star for many, praised for rich flavor and generous portions, though a few notes mention occasional dryness or price concerns and some side dishes needing salt or freshness. Staff are frequently commended for attentiveness and recommendations, while a few experiences cite uneven service or maintenance issues like cold bathrooms. Overall Dunn's Famous delivers comforting, filling meals and a nostalgic Montreal dining experience that many visitors and locals return to for a dependable classic.
I am not too impressed with the Dunn's on Decarie & the one in Laval, but this Dunn's on Metcalfe (which is the original one) continues to be really top (superb smoked meat, superb service, superb ambience). I was there again last night & it keep shining on all fronts (the service was again great & efficient, the ambience too, the "petit combo" sandwich dazzled, etc.
A visit to Montreal isn't complete without eating at a smoked meat restaurant. Dunn's is one of the originals, dating back to 1927. Their slow-cooked brisket is delicious: well-flavoured with an almost crumbly texture. Perfect. We had their smaller option, as this was lunch. Perfect size & perfectly delicious. We are moving on from Montreal tomorrow, so a visit to Dunn's was the ideal lunch to finish our visit here. I chose: - Le Petit Combo: our small sandwich served on rye bread with homemade fries, coleslaw & dill
Waiters don't accept our amount of tips, but push to pay anount they want. Very unpleasant experience. Will not coe there again. Destroyed our mood for all day & a long time!
Memorable menu, & suitable for breakfast, lunch, dinner. So much good food here. On Metcalfe near Simons, accessible by Peel Metro stop & a short walk.
