Greenspot est perçu comme une institution montréalaise au charme rétro, offrant une cuisine réconfortante de type casse croûte avec poutines généreuses, smoked meat et burgers, et des brunchs copieux à prix raisonnables. L'ambiance nostalgique et le service rapide et sympathique font partie du charme, même si le service peut être inégal et certains plats peuvent manquer de finesse ou de fraîcheur; l'absence de réservation et le bruit parfois élevé sont aussi mentionnés. La clientèle est fidèle et l'endroit est apprécié pour son accessibilité et son côté convivial, faisant de Greenspot une expérience authentique et abordable du diner classique où l'on retrouve les classiques de Montréal.
An absolute staple for classic Montreal fare! This old-fashioned diner has been serving authentic eats for decades; just stepping inside the restaurant transports you to a far simpler world.
We got the classic smoked meat sandwiches & the poutine. The soft bread is loaded to the brim with super tender & flavorful smoked meat & accompanied by tangy mustard. If you're visiting Montreal for the first time, smoked meat is definitely a must-try food, & Greenspot did it justice. Their famous poutine was fun & tasty as well. We got the small size, which was still plenty to share between two people. Despite being drenched in the hearty gravy, the thick-cut fries remained very crispy. The cheese curds had the right amount of'squeakiness' every Canadian is looking for & made for a delightful eating experience. You can't go to Quebec & not try poutine. The combination of fries, gravy, & cheese seems simple yet is surprisingly layered with the contrasting textures.
Greenspot is the spot for an unassuming, undeniably wonderful meal!
Excellente adresse pour de la viande fumée à Montréal. Le Green Spot est un classique du Sud-Ouest, avec une viande fumée savoureuse, tendre & bien assaisonnée, servie en portions généreuses. Le pain est frais, les accompagnements simples & efficaces, exactement comme on l'aime.
L'ambiance est authentique, sans prétention, & le service est rapide & sympathique. C'est le genre d'endroit où on revient pour le goût, la constance & le côté réconfortant.
Un incontournable pour les amateurs de smoked meat dans le Sud-Ouest de Montréal. Une valeur sûre.
Service & Atmosphere were great. Parking is the worst in this area. Heard this was one of the best spots in MTL for poutine sadly It's not….but the Hotdogs are great & the smoked meat was good. Avoid the chicken souvlaki, bland rice & underdressed salad & overcooked chicken. For a Greek diner I expected better. Poutine was mid, tasted more like Ontario style, bland & curds while plentiful were not squeaky. Great atmosphere & again amazing service. This spot is def best for Steamés & probably awesome for breakfast. The fountain coke is super good at this place.
Great diner, perfect smoked meat sandwich. Prices are a bit high, but what else is new for the area. went at 11am on a Saturday & got sat right away. Iconic place!
Viemos conhecer esse tradicional restaurante em Montreal. Atendimento rápido e muito simpático. Conheci a cerveja Boreale Rousse e adorei. O sanduíche smokedmeat estava delicioso. Adoro comer poutine e o deles também estava ótimo. Acho que vale a pena e, com certeza voltaremos.

I heard about this place for a while & decided finally to give it a try. We were really hungry so we opted for the smoke meat & the pizza. Surprisingly ,the person in the phone didn't ask what cut for the Smoked Meat we wanted, the sandwich was ok, nonetheless. The pizza itself was a little bit too salty. We are not sure if we will be back
Got the smoked meat sandwich & the grilled salmon. There's 2 for the price of 1 on beer 🍻 during happy hours. The food was amazing ! Will be back again.
We had hot dogs, pepperoni poutine, smoked meat sandwich & a sub sandwich.
The sub sandwich took forever forever forever to come - the waitress apologized twice for the delay - so I wouldn't recommend ordering - it's just a big smoked meat sandwich anyway.
The smoke meat sandwich is deceptively small - the bread is like a fig leaf on the meat. Eat one for lunch & you don't need dinner. The meat was delicious & tender. Recommend.
The pepperoini poutine was really good. Very generous portions.

Here for a few days & was referred to this restaurant. The experience is one for the books & will definitely recommend it to anyone in town looking for comfort food! Our waiter Cody helped to make the experience pleasant. Food was great too! Bacon was cooked to perfection & the smoked meat was flavourful.
Finally tried out Greenspot Restaurant, an old school diner institution, known for their breakfast & poutine. - The house combo ($16.25) - smoked meat, crepe, bacon, ham, sausage, beans, toast & hash browns. Nothing memorable, heavy - Grilled cheese ($7.45) - meh. Skip it - 2 eggs with ham ($11.25) - standard fare - BLT with egg & cheese ($10.75)
Greenspot Restaurant is a true gem with a rich history dating back to 1947. This iconic spot has been serving delicious comfort food for generations, & it never disappoints. I ordered the smoked meat omelette & chicken brochettes, & both were exceptional. The omelette was perfectly prepared, loaded with flavorful smoked meat, while the chicken brochettes were juicy & perfectly seasoned. The nostalgic charm of the restaurant, combined with its decades of culinary tradition, makes it a must-visit for anyone craving a classic, satisfying meal. A timeless Montreal treasure!
This is the spot for a great Montreal Poutine. The best gravy in town! Sandwiches are great too, I usually take the smoked meat sandwich. Service is pretty good (although a bit slow at times because it's always super busy!) & the vibe is awesome! It takes you back to the good old days. Totally recommend.

Classic Québécois diner serving wonderful poutine (27 varieties) & smoked meat sandwiches among other classic diner eats. The Classique is a perfect poutine with dark rich gravy & perfectly squeaky cheese curds. Best gravy in town. I would recommend the medium smoked meat sandwich also. A must visit when in Montréal.
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.
