Frite Alors! is commonly praised for its poutine, with many noting rich cheese, generous toppings like sausage or pulled pork, and crispy fries, though a few feel portions or cheese amounts could be larger. The menu includes smash burgers, burgers, and sides, and several reviewers highlight the burgers as a strong point and the overall quality of the accompaniments. The space is described as spacious and casual, with indoor and patio seating and a relaxed street vibe that makes for a comfortable visit. Service is generally friendly and efficient, but experiences vary from quick attendance to longer wait times or delays with orders, especially during busy periods. Value is often described as reasonable, with good drink options and predictable lunchtime specials, although a vegetarian option is sometimes lacking and a few days are noted as off days affecting overall quality. Overall, many reviewers would return for the poutine or burgers, while acknowledging that the experience can depend on timing and day.
The space is quite spacious with plenty of seating. It wasn't too loud, & the place has a very local, laid back feel. I went in the early afternoon on a weekday, so it wasn't busy at all. It felt calm, quiet, & comfortable.
The menu includes poutine, smash burgers, burgers, & a few side dishes. I ordered the sausage poutine. It was really good & came with a generous amount of sausage. The food arrived quickly, about 5 minutes after ordering.
There was one male server working the floor. He was friendly, attentive, & very efficient. He moved constantly, stayed flexible, & paid attention to every table. Very professional overall.
Definitely worth trying. I would come back if I am in the area again.
We visited from Alberta, wanted delicious poutine while in Montreal, & were not disappointed with our experience. In fact, my friend who had not yet experienced a poutine which she enjoyed, really enjoyed it! I was delighted that she finally could understand my enjoyment of poutine. Both the poutine & the side salad that we shared were delicious! Would highly recommend this place!
Nous avons tous aimé notre repas . Servi dans un délais raisonnables étant donner que nous y avons été juste avant notre spectacle au théâtre st-denis.
Restaurant qui manque clairement d'amour.
Service qui laisse à désirer.
45 mn pour des frites !
1 seul verre d'eau servi, bref, ce n'est pas le meilleur endroit pour faire une halte.

Malheureusement je pensais retrouver un peu de cuisine de chez moi, mais fort déçue de mon expérience, j'ai pris à emporter une petite frite&andalouse (je suis à 2min du lieu) : frites trop grasses, toutes moles, la moitié est trop cuite voire brûlée & une partie pas assez cuite, l'andalouse elle a un goût de crème au paprika. 7$ pour tout jeter :(.
Restaurant très agréable, je suis belge & vis en Espagne depuis des années, lorsque je suis aller visiter le Canada, lors de mon passage a Montréal j'y suis aller & j'ai été surpris, les frites me rappellaient les frites de mon enfance en Belgique, tres bien cuite, les viandes sont bonne & le service par les différents serveur est tres agréable, j'en garde de tres bon souvenir. Ils sont également très attentifs à tout se qu'il se passe & son aux petits soins avec les clients. Lors de mon prochain séjour j'y retournerais avec plaisir.
Food was good, but it took 20 minutes just to get our order taken & another 30 to get our food. We were originally going to eat at the restaurant, but ended up taking everything to go after we got tired of waiting. I don't know if we just caught them on an off day, but the overall experience was slightly disheartening
Non si può andare in Canada senza assaggiare il poutine, sorta di miscuglio di patate fritte, formaggio e salsa. Può essere molto pesante. Non avevo consigli di persone del luogo, tra i posti dove l'ho assaggiato questo era il migliore decisamente. Il fatto che la clientela sia locale prevalentemente la dice lunga...
