Dunn's Famous

Some spots have so much history, you feel you're in a movie set as soon as you walk inside. That was definitely the case at Dunn's, where every booth felt like a place where the story's exposition had unfolded & the dialogue exchanged. Excellent, classic vibes!

Food was great. The smoked meat sandwich is what they're known for & it came out tender & juicy. The classic Jewish deli treat: a brisket, dry-cured for 14 days in a blend of peppercorn, garlic, coriander, & mustard seed, then slow-smoked, steamed, & hand-sliced onto fresh rye bread. Pair it with the tang of sauerkraut & a dill pickle & you're in business.

Pro tip: go with the'super combo' large smoked meat sandwich, upgrade the fries to poutine, & just share that with your partner in crime. It's perfect!

I was on the hunt for Dunn's black cherry drink to complete the meal, but they had run out. Hopefully you'll have better luck ordering one.

The smoked meats on the rueban are great & food portions are worth the higher pricing here. The poutine was good, but the gravy was a bit sweet. During the day this place is too busy to enjoy with all the tourists, but the 24 hr open time is extremely welcome after 9pm when all other restaurants are closed.

Bel endroit. La nourriture était bonne & les portions étaient bien.

Le serveur aurait pu venir nous voir plus régulièrement pour nous servir de l'eau par exemple ou nous demander si tout était correcte.

We had a party of six at the beginning of a busy lunch time. They seated us quickly, answered questions about the food options & retuned promptly to take our orders. The food came out quickly & we were happy with each entre. We were unfamiliar with this cuisine because we live in Kentucky. We would definitely eat here again if / when we return to Montreal.

Had the Reuben sandwich at Dunn's in downtown Montreal, & it was every bit as good as its reputation. Fresh, flavorful, & made with care. It's impressive how a place with so much history still delivers such consistent quality. Definitely worth a visit!

I really don't understand why anyone would wait in line for the other more famous place in Montreal for a smoked meat sandwich. The smoked meat here is amazing & portions are generous. If you aren't a big eater, get the small plate. Deeelish!
