Review Summary

Icehouse is widely regarded as a lively and welcoming neighborhood gem known for its Tex-Mex inspired comfort food and laid-back atmosphere. Many patrons praise the standout fried chicken and flavorful fish tacos, often highlighting these dishes as some of the best in Montreal. While the restaurant has built a reputation as a go-to spot for groups, celebrations, and casual dining, recent experiences have been mixed. Some long-time customers feel the quality has fluctuated under new management, noting issues with service consistency and occasional overcooked meals, while others continue to enjoy the vibrant energy, friendly staff, and consistent flavors that have defined the experience for years.

Beau petit resto, ambiance conviviale, accueil chaleureux & invitant. Notre serveur, Victor, a bien pris le temps de nous expliquer le menu & de nous conseiller sur les différents plats & cocktails proposés. Nos choix se sont arrêtés sur: en entrée (partagée) le 7 layer dip avec les tortillas maison .. un vrai délice! En plat principal, les savoureux tacos au poulet frit, & les côtes levées hyper tendres. Nos cocktails: bourbon limonade maison & Margarita. Tout était succulent, très satisfaites de notre visite!

Stopped by Icehouse last week for the food! The staff was excellent, Ben in particular. He was topping off our drinks, knowledgable on the menu, & even had a quick intermission to play bass with band! What an absolute legend. Someone give this guy a raise!

Wow! Quelle découverte. Petit resto de quartier offrant une cuisine maison style pub tex-mex, ambiance chaleureuse & festive. Tout est fait maison & ça se goûte. Le poulet frit (avec un glaze au miel) est phénoménal. Dans les meilleurs poulets frits que j'ai mangés. Une panure épaisse & croustillante, un poulet juteux & un glaze sucré qui complimente le tout! J'y retournerai assurément pour goûter à d'autres plats.

Quelle belle découverte sur la rue Roy. L'ambiance est vraiment accueillante & on s'y sent tout de suite bien.

Les tacos étaient absolument délicieux, avec une présentation soignée & beaucoup de fraîcheur, notamment grâce aux oignons rouges & à la coriandre qui rehaussaient parfaitement le tout. Accompagner cela d'une boisson bien fraîche avec une tranche de citron, c'était exactement ce qu'il fallait pour passer un excellent moment. Je recommande sans hésiter.

J'étais un grand fan du Ice House, mais notre dernière visite a été très décevante. On dirait qu'il y a eu une baisse de qualité. Burrito au poulet frit avait juste du riz, de la salade & du poulet frit trop cuit. Le menu sur l'ardoise indique des ingrédients différents de ce qu'on a reçu, dommage.
