Overall, reviews describe Frite Alors! as a casual, spacious spot with a local, relaxed vibe and solid seating options where poutine, smash burgers, burgers, and sides are the main draw. Poutine is consistently praised, with generous toppings and flavorful cheese, and several versions including Montréalaise style are mentioned; the fries are generally crispy, and portions are described as satisfying though a few comments note small portions for certain poutines. The smash burgers are a standout, and the menu is seen as reliable with reasonable prices, a good beer and cider selection, and quick or friendly service in many visits. Attentive and professional staff appear in most reviews, though a few mention slower service or longer wait times, particularly during busy periods or for takeout. The atmosphere ranges from calm midafternoon visits to lively evenings with a pedestrian street setting and outdoor seating, and the place is described as a good option for a Montreal style casual meal that patrons would return for when in the area.
La cuisine est typique mais très bonne. Le serveur bouclé est très gentil & très à l'écoute. Vraiment les burgers sont excellents je recommande on reviendra c'est certain !!
Merci pour ce bon repas !
The cheese they put on the poutine is fantastic, but unfortunately there just wasn't enough of it. If you get any poutine other than the one that comes with double the cheese, I'd ask for extra cheese (can't remember if that's an option when you order online though). The fries are ok, not quite as good as the cheese but not terrible either. The gravy though is where things took a turn for the worst. It just wasn't that good in my opinion. Mine also had the pulled pork on it, which was fine & a decent serving.
If they can fix the gravy & add extra cheese it would push their poutines to 5 star.
Service was fine, but this is a takeout order placed online. There was an issue with the order not being ready when I came to pick it up, even though we were late to pick it up due to traffic. They claimed there was some issue with the tickets not printing, & thankfully I didn't have to wait very long (about 10 min). Not sure if that's a common occurrence or just a one off.

The food was amazing. Love a good Montreal Poutine. I got the small Tex Mex, the server had such a positive attitude that made the experience so much better. The small poutine was the perfect amount of food to keep you full & not overly bloated. Will definitely come back

It's was delicious! Cheese burger with gluten free bun, with a gf cider to wash it down!!!
I had the wonderful Ambre as my server. $ well spent....I'll be back!! Lol!
Belle terrasse sur la rue piétonnière en été. Les smashburgers sont délicieux. Les frites sont sublimes & le service est bon. Les toilettes sont propres. Nous y reviendrons.
Good service & delicious food at a reasonable price. I'll definitely be coming back again to try their sandwiches! They also have a good selection of beer.
Bon service & prix raisonnable. Venez durant la semaine pour profiter du menu midi, les prix sont très bon. Bonne sélection de bière & cidre disponible.
Les serveuses étaient gentilles mais l'attente était très longue. Nous avons attendu très longtemps assir & le soleil c'est presque coucher. smash burger était bon mais pour un restaurant nommé frite alors, les frite n'était pas top top. Que des petits bout un peu trop cuit, jetait chanceuse si j'avais plus de 4 frites de de plus de 2 cm.
