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.
Tout simplement la meilleure poutine de chaîne de restaurant que j'ai mangé. Les frites font la poutine ici, non seulement l'odeur intoxicante des frites se sent depuis la rue, mais le mariage avec la sauce & le fromage de qualité font de celle poutine simple un régal sans égal dans sa catégorie. Ça vaut le prix un peu plus dispendieux!
Bon restaurant mais les burgers ne sont pas incroyable pour le prix, mauvais pain, peu de sauce & un papier qui prend l’humidité du burger & qui s’effrite avec la nourriture
Comfort cuisine that pairs well with a limited budget. Their "Vladimir" poutine is the standard against which all poutines can be measured. & this location is walking distance from amazing pubs to complete an evening of gastric excess.
Upon arrival I saw papers everywhere 'chef wanted!'...& saw that there was only a staff of 2,a kid behind the kitchen & a young girl serving...both extremely young! (early 20's).
The young chef obviously had no idea what he was doing as, after waiting for almost 40minutes for 2 burgers, the food was cold & terrible (almost raw!).
This means frits-alors cannot give a guarantee of quality, so I would definitely not go back! Major disappointment!!
