Deli Georges a été fondé en 1997, un restaurant familial situé à Laval. Notre viande fumée est épicée, âgée et fumée de façon traditionnelle chez nous. Venez nous joindre dîner ou souper pour goûter la tradition.
George's est décrite par les avis comme une adresse où le smoked meat est tendre et savoureux, souvent considéré comme le meilleur de Laval et presque équivalent à des références montréalaises sans nécessiter de déplacement, avec des portions généreuses et des frites croustillantes accompagnées d'une salade de chou appréciée; le service est rapide et le restaurant fonctionne au comptoir, l'ambiance pouvant paraître simple ou datée; le rapport qualité-prix est jugé raisonnable, certains prônant le choix medium fat pour un goût optimal; malgré quelques critiques sur l'ambiance ou des variations d'une visite à l'autre, l'ensemble des retours montre une expérience solide et l'adresse revient fréquemment sur les listes à visiter pour son smoked meat maison et sa constance.
Its the best smoked meat period. You're eating meat, not lester hot dogs. I dont get the low ratings for the ambiance. Its smoked meat & its good. The fries aren't brown like belle pro. Good sign. Frozen or not. You're there for the meat. A go to. My opinion only everybody has their own
If you want to eat 5 star smoked meat & you want to avoid the lineups at Schwartz's, this is the place to go. Forget the smoked meat chains, they serve what we refer to as cold cuts. They just warm them up before serving. This is authentic house smoked brisket. Real meat & nothing but. Maybe a touch on the dry side sometimes so get it medium. But that's their style. My mom said the pickle & coleslaw were excellent. That's coming from a Polish mom that used to make the stuff herself. I've been here a few times & they still have the same fries of which I am not a huge fan. Guys, if you change to homemade fresh fries, people will be going to Schwartz's to avoid the lineups at your place!

this is definitely the best smoked meat you'll ever taste. if you like Schwartz's style smoked meat then you'll love this, same great taste but you don't have to go downtown.
Food. Smoked meat only. Asked for between lean & medium fat. It was very very dry. I was there at about 3:00 ish during the week & non one was in the restaurant. They sliced the meat promptly & I asked for a slice & tasted it, it was completely dry. This was right out of the steamer. I honestly stated it tasted very dry & they didn't say anything. I really wanted to return the meat as I knew the rest would also be beyond dry.
Service. Reasonably decent. There is a bit of a chip on the shoulders of the two fellows who were service as it was not a very welcoming reception at all.
Atmosphere. Basic deli nothing fancy at all. It is clean.
So I have eaten here years back shortly after the opened & it was pretty good. Their fries were nice as was the smoked meat.
So when I was in the area I thought it was safe to say that I'd stop by & bring back some fresh hot sliced classic Smokey meat with a rye bread for dinner.
When I arrived at home we immediately opened the container & did not hold back. We each took a slice & happily placed it in our mouths to devour with pleasure. Sadly this did not happen as planned.
First the meat was super dry beyond belief & only mayonnaise (not me) was able to make it somewhat palatable from a texture perspective.
The other thing we were able to notice was the changes in colour of the sliced of the brisket. What I have experienced is that when a brisket is not fresh, meaning it has been reheated in the steamer more than once, like the following day or for a prolonged time, this change in colour happens. To me this confirmed that the meat they served was not up to par with previous experiences.
The second issue was the taste. Aside from being overly salty (I am a salt fanatic so this means it's really salty), not to the point of being inedible, but so much so that all the flavour is salt.
This moves us to the next IMPORTANT point - the taste. I'm sure everyone has enjoyed the classic taste of Rubens, Lester's, Shwartzes, Dunns, & of course (Ben's from years past) & the likes of classic smoker meat places in Montreal. Well this smoked meat did not taste nor smell like any of them - not even remotely. It's not that it's bad per se, it's more like a let down as (like everyone) I wanted a Montreal smoked meat taste experience. I found out that they smoke their own meats in house. Perhaps their recipe is different? I do t know nor do I honestly care, what I do care about is keeping up the traditions flavour of Montreal smoked meat. Perhaps Montreal needs to install a standards certificate like Italy does with its cheese & France did with its wines etc. I would never call this smoked meat, smoker brisket yeah - but that's it.
So, I'm truly sorry to say that I am honestly unable to suggest eating here as I will not be returning either.
This is not person & perhaps my decades of eating smoker meat has hit a new standard that a'cut above the rest', but I do believe that I'm quite certain the couple of pounds I bought & had freshly sliced hot out of the steamer were definitely not up to the Montreal standard of smoked meat.
Le meilleure smoked meat
(viandes fumées) de Laval.
Meilleure que le compétiteur de Montréal. Restaurant assez grand pour manger sur place, sans être tassé comme son compétiteur Montréalais. Commande pour emporter disponible. George's Deli,
c'est tellement bon!☺?

Overall good experience. Had the smoked meat sandwich plate. Generous portions. Smoke meat taste was decent. Quiet & very clean seating areas. Was a bit pricier than expected cause the menu screenshots uploaded are old, but not more than most other places- cost me $30 for the plate & a canned drink.

2025 update: still incredible! Just get medium fat & everything is butter smooth! Very very good smoked meat & fries, was there a couple of hours ago, definitely one of my best spots in Laval. Prices are similar to other places. They was a fat smoked meat sandwich, the fat isn't hard, it melts, absolutely delicious 🤤 always!
Best smoked meat à Laval ! La viande est fraîche, juteuse & délicieuse. L'humble extérieur cache en fait une bonne adresse cachée que seule les habitués connaissent. Je recommande de prendre'medium/fat' pour le goût. Le service est toujours efficace. 🫶❤?
Smoked Meat made & Smoked inhouse. Just as good as that other place & no crazy line ups. George's son's run the restaurant. Nice guys. The sandwich was stacked !!!

Some of the best smoked meat I've had in all my years in Montreal. I heard that old man George used to work for Schwartz's before going off on his own to open his own place… & boy does it show! Will be returning there not just for the great smoked meat but also for the incredibly fair prices.
I've been eating here for well-over 20 years. Not only is the deli phenomenal, the staff (family-owned) is friendly & honest. Bathrooms are always clean. If you're in Laval & crave a juicy smoked meat sandwich, this is THE place to go.
Terrible smoked meat. It was so dry, had zero taste, the ketchup was more brown than red. It oxidized. Used to be best in Laval, now it's avoid at all cost. Will never return. Will make the drive to Pete's next time.
If you are craving a classic smoked meat as similar to Schwartz, then this place is for you. Keep in mind it is more pastrami like & in doing so can feel heavier. Inside is clean but dated. I do recommend if you are craving that pastrami like smoked meat.
