Greenspot emerges in reviews as a Montreal institution and a classic diner with a retro vibe, where hearty comfort food, generous portions, and reasonable prices draw locals and visitors alike. The menu consistently features poutine, smoked meat, burgers, steaks, clubs, and all day breakfasts, with many praising the poutines as among the best in town and the smoked meat as tender and flavorful. Breakfast highlights include eggs Benedict twists and big plates of breakfast staples, while longtime diners enjoy the familiar, no frills service, fast and friendly when busy. The atmosphere is described as nostalgic, cozy, and unpretentious, though the space can be noisy and booths may feel cramped, and a few reviews note slow service or variability during peak times and occasional inconsistencies in taste. Still, Greenspot is repeatedly praised for its approachable price point, consistent comfort food, and the sense of stepping back in time, making it a dependable go-to for satisfying meals that hit the spot and satisfy cravings for a classic diner experience.
J ai mangé un hamburger avec une boulette calcinée La poutine n était pas mangeable Frite mal cuite , la sauce était gluante & mauvais goût Je suis très déçus Donc petite poutine & hamburger Avec taxes & tissus = $ 23.00
Went in for a poutine, got poutine, I had no prior experience on it so I guess it was good & perfect but just not for me. Service was great, the atmosphere was really an authentic diner experience so highly recommend if you like that. Nathans hotdogs looked delicious & one member of our group spoke highly of them. Wine/beer selection was a bit small but I guess they arent the main attraction there.
The poutine was good, don't think it's even near the best in Montreal but it was good. Service was subpar, the lady serving me was great but not so much the manager/owner of the restaurant.

Une super belle expérience, Ambiance , déjeuner, service numéro 1 Y a du monde , le restaurant est figé dans le temp ... je recommande au personne nostalgique du bon vieux temps. Malgré le grand nombre de monde , le service était numero 1 & nos assiettes super bonne . Un grand merciiii
Great old school Americana atmosphere. Friendly people. Quick, efficient service. The only thing they could do to improve... serve le vrai maple syrup.
Resto de style rétro qui existe depuis au moins les années 1950. Endroit reconnu pour le smoked-meat. Aussi, nourriture en abondance! & les frites maison sont des méga frites. Rare de nos jours de retrouver un resto qui sert une aussi grosse portion pour chaque assiette du menu (de type traditionnel) : on a dû emporter le tout tellement que la quantite était grande & qu'on n'arrivait pas à tout manger.
