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.
My go to for some of the best smash burger in town, easy, fast & cheap, good beer to match it with. Fries & poutine were really tasty & crispy. Wasn't busy when we went but service was fast & efficient. All in all an easy place if you're craving a burger & some fries.
Had a pleasant dining experience here! The staff was lovely & accommodated me on any queries i had with the menu considering this was my first meal after landing here, thank you very much! My first poutine here & it's remained on the top of my list for the best so far!!
Stopped here during a visit to the city on a very quiet Saturday evening. We were the only people in the restaurant ... Then, my burger arrived fairly cold but my friend's poutine seemed okay.
Place is okay, food is good. They do NOT have grilled cheese, but well, it's Google fault, not their. Probably they used to have it. Not anymore. Overall, good & affordable.
It took about a good 10 minutes before someone came to take our order, & there were only 3 other customers in the restaurant. Afterward, it was almost 20 minutes to get our order because, apparently, the machine did not spit out our order. The smash burger with bacon was really greasing. The fries were crispy, & the Frites, Alors sauce was spicy. I was curious about this restaurant, & I'm no longer curious. I'm not sure I'll come back.

Fries were cold, gravy was lukewarm, so the curds didn't even soften. Very disappointing. The lemonade cocktail was okay, the redeeming factor was the service.
Absolutely loved my visit to Frite Alors! The poutine was the perfect blend of crispy fries, rich gravy, & cheese curds-comfort food at its finest. The la baguette marquez sandwich was equally impressive, with fresh ingredients & an incredible crunch. Our server Marlon was exceptional, providing attentive & friendly service that made our experience even better. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving delicious food & great service! 5 stars all the way!
