Across many reviews, Dunn's Famous is described as a Montreal classic known for its smoked meat sandwiches and generous portions, with fast service and a lively, historical vibe. Guests praise the tender, smoky meat, crispy fries, and supportive atmosphere, with standout items like poutine and cheesecake mentioned; the staff is often highlighted for quick, friendly service, though a few notes point to occasional crowds, long lines, and busy times, and some criticisms include inconsistent fries, leaner meat options, and older bathrooms in need of renovation. The late hours and family friendly ambiance are also noted, making it a reliable stop for locals and visitors seeking a comforting, nostalgic Montreal dining experience.
The smoked meat sandwich on rye bread was heavenly. It was served with coleslaw which balances the fat of the sandwich. It was the best sandwich I've ever had in my life. But I guess fries are not their forte? They were soggy, oily & takes away the joy one feels while devouring the sandwich. They should gather together & reinvent the way they do the fries.
This was me & my friends' first stop for our Montreal trip. Our hotel wasn't ready so we left the bags & explored for a bit. My friend said he knew exactly what we were going to do & looked up a place to get poutine. We both shared the montreal smoked meat poutine. Delicious! The gravy was light & the smoked meat added the salt. Definitely a place worth stopping

Meat was great, black cherry soda was the best part of the meal for me. I had the rueben & it was good. White older crowd & the waiter was fast as hell as was the food. Probs has sentimental value for longtime customers, not my vibe as tourist.
Oh my gosh, what a funky place & AMAZING smoked meat. The cole slaw is very unique yet delicious. The onion soup was filled with onions! Loved that. Even the French fries were great. Service was great.
