Review Summary

Greenspot is widely regarded as a beloved Montreal institution that offers an authentic, nostalgic diner experience with its vintage decor and classic atmosphere. Many visitors praise the restaurant for its hearty comfort food, particularly the generous portions of smoked meat and a variety of poutines that are frequently cited as among the best in the city. The menu is extensive, catering to a wide range of tastes with reliable breakfast options, sandwiches, and traditional Quebecois fare at reasonable prices. While the dining environment is consistently described as lively and charming, service levels can vary, though many guests highlight the fast, friendly, and professional nature of the staff. Despite occasional inconsistencies, this long standing establishment remains a go to destination for those seeking a genuine and satisfying local dining experience.

The poutine & smoked meat sandwiches were good but we got better at other places but still a good option for the price. The place was a bit busy so it took kinda longer to get our food & bill. Staff was kind & attentive though. They spoke perfect English & French

My partner's meal was good, although it's difficult to mess up eggs & toast. I was excited to try this place especially given the positive feedback, but it was by far the worst place I've had in Montreal. Firstly, the menu online is not the same as in person. They did not specify online that there is a different breakfast/lunch/dinner menu, so went in at 10 am & couldn't order lunch. As I wanted the smoked meat sandwich, I asked someone (not our waitress who didn't know the answer) how much smoked meat the side is in comparison to the sandwich. I was told that the side was the same amount, so I ordered this & a side of rye bread to make it myself. I was presented with three (yes, THREE) very thin slices of smoked meat. It was so thin & little it had no taste, the bread had more taste! I understand it is a side, but I was told it was the same amount as a usual smoked meat sandwich. Then, we waited 40 minutes for our waitress to come to us to pay our bill. She never came once to check on us or refill my water. They then tried to charge me for coffee I didn't ask for & never drank. Extremely unhappy, worst smoked meat in all of Montreal & horrible service. I have nothing positive to say for me.

I was in town for a business trip & noticed this place was conveniently located near my meeting, so I decided to give it a try. Since it was my first visit, I went with the classics: a lean Montreal smoked meat sandwich & a small poutine. I also asked for extra pickles.
The cashier was friendly & even commented that I had made a great choice. While waiting for my takeout order, I got a good feel for the restaurant-the atmosphere was welcoming, & both the staff & customers seemed genuinely friendly.
The smoked meat sandwich was outstanding. The meat was tender & flavorful, & they were generous with the pickles, which were crisp & delicious. The poutine was a little on the salty side for my taste, but it was still very tasty.
I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town, & I think I'll be trying one of their famous hot dogs.

Great experience!

Food is amazing, best poutine & smoked meat I had in Montreal. The interior is also really pretty!

The staff were all patient & very hard-working the whole time. Food came pretty fast.

The food is exceptional. The smoked meat is very clearly done well. However, the portions are HUGE. I went with 5 people, you can probably all be full with 2-3 dishes.
Will definitely be back.

I asked for the medium fatty smoked meat sandwich. It was okay. I was expecting some fatty bits but it was still too lean. The chef or cook was even asking the cashier if it was'really medium fatty?'
I guess they just dont do fatty or medium fatty variations of their smoke meat. Too bad!

Poutine au smoked meat avec supplément bacon & onion rings

Le Greenspot est un véritable classique à Montréal. Réputé pour ses nombreuses poutines & son excellent smoked meat, il fallait absolument que je l'essaie. L'endroit a énormément de charme, avec un décor de diner rétro qui ajoute vraiment à l'expérience.

La poutine est excellente : les frites sont bien croustillantes, la sauce est savoureuse, le fromage en grains est généreux, & le smoked meat est parfaitement tendre. Le supplément de bacon & d'onion rings apporte une touche gourmande qui vaut le détour.

Je recommande vivement cette adresse. Le Greenspot fait désormais partie de mes poutines préférées à Montréal.

Petit plus : il est assez facile de se stationner à proximité. L'établissement est aussi facilement accessible à vélo en longeant le canal de Lachine ou en métro.

Nourriture & service vraiment merdique. Je ne comprends pas les gens dans les commentaires qui disent que c'est la meilleure poutine de Montréal… La serveuse était vraiment nonchalante. Mon mari & moi avons pris une poutine, la sauce goutait le brulé, & les frittes n'étaient pas bonne, viande hachée sec & smoked meat rempli de gras. En général, pas une bonne expérience. J'ai l'impression que les gens vont là simplement pour l'ambiance & la nostalgie du restaurant.
