Greenspot comes across as a quintessential Montreal diner, celebrated for smoked meat sandwiches and legendary poutine, with generous portions and fast, friendly service, and a nostalgic retro vibe that keeps customers coming back for comforting, affordable classics, while some reviews note variations in poutine quality and occasional service hiccups, yet the overall impression is that Greenspot is an institution delivering reliable comfort food and an unpretentious, homey dining experience.
My buddy who grew up here took me to this charming old school diner & I'm sure glad he did. I ordered the smoked meat platter with loose bread & the chop chop poutine. have had smoked meats around Montreal & New York & I'd have to say this one blew all the other ones out of the park. The meat was so juicy, moist & had an incredible Smokey flavor. The poutine was also fantastic. I ended up coming back here a second time before leaving Montreal to get another smoked meat fix.

I think this spot is timeless, the interior throw you back into the 60s, but with really good poutine !!! The prices are very reasonable & the staff very effective! I will come back!
Poutine: -fries 3/5 -cheese 5/5 -sauce 4/5 More sauce would be a bit beneficial too compensate with the fries but other than that thats a more than decent classic cantine poutine
Commander sous-marin Bravo 10 pouces. Reçu nos assiettes assez rapidement de la serveurse. Sous-marin a beaucoup de garnitures (steak, pepperoni, salade, etc) & très bon. Les pizza & les poutines ont l'air énormes aussi. Cela explique pourquoi le restaurant existe depuis longtemps & est toujours populaire. Près du métro Lionel-Groulx.

Top notch for late late night food, but there's not a lot of competition. I wouldn't bring a guest. As a diner during the day, it's middling. The fries are inconsistent. I was trying to show someone a proper Quebec poutine & it was a fail, but I've had decent ones from here. That all sounds pretty negative. Let me end with: this is 1000x better than chains & if you want a steamy or classic diner fare you cannot go wrong.
I'd say it was a good poutine! I've been told there are other good places but I'd say this is around a 4-4.5/5 Good service, free wifi, nice classic diner vibe & located close to atwater market!
Très bon restaurant bien typé américain ou manger de très bonnes poutines, viande fumée ou sandwich club. Déco rétro. Très bon service & rapide. On a commandé deux grandes assiettes de poutine pour deux adultes & deux enfants, on a eu du mal à finir. Avec un sandwich de viande fumée & 4 boissons plus le tip de 15% nous avons payé 75$ & nous étions repus.
