Review Summary

Reviewers describe Icehouse as a warm, unpretentious spot with a welcoming vibe, where generous portions and solid flavors anchor a menu that ranges from fried chicken and ribs to tacos and seafood. The fried chicken is frequently praised for being juicy, crispy, and well seasoned, the brisket sandwich is often divine, and the shrimp po'boy and Baja fish tacos get notable accolades for taste and texture. Drinks are highlighted for being well crafted, with margaritas and bourbon lemonades mentioned as standout options, while the atmosphere is repeatedly described as intimate and lively with friendly service and fair prices. Some diners note occasional hiccups, such as a misstep with a reservation, items that can be saltier or overcooked, and occasional beverage pricing quirks, but improvements under new ownership are also mentioned. Overall Icehouse comes across as a dependable Montreal favorite that blends comfort food, good drinks, and a welcoming setting.

I ordered the fish tacos to go & the total was 19 bucks with tax & tip. It came with 2 tacos & the fish were overdone in the fryer. The service was great & great vibe but I found the value & quality poor for the price.

truly our kind of place-& we can't believe it took us this long to discover it. A long-standing favorite for many, it now firmly holds that title for us too. The space is intimate & refreshingly straightforward, with great food, great drinks, & prices that feel more than fair. Every part of the experience hit just right.

The brisket sandwich was divine: melt-in-your-mouth tender, perfectly smoky, & deeply satisfying. The shrimp po' boy was phenomenal, & the fish Baja tacos were nothing short of incredible. Add to that drinks that were as fun & well-crafted as the lively atmosphere & music, & you've got a place that knows exactly what it's doing. To top it all off, the service was genuinely lovely. A total win from start to finish.

Amazing across the board!

The service was impeccable, thanks to Zach & his team. I highly recommend the margaritas with your meal. I tried the fish tacos, the fried chicken tacos & the crispy tacos with beef & I was impressed. Everything was delicious, although the fish was overcooked & therefore quite crispy! If you can make it for dollar wings, take advantage of it!!

Like... the best margaritas, the best spot, just tucked in steps away from vibrant st laurent, & just... but just... no kidding, BEST fish tacos i've ever had. Literally felt like i was in Costa Rica by the beach.

A cute little place for a bite. The Po' Boy was fantastic, as were the Fish Tacos. They have a great $14 Margarita between 5 & 7pm. Un petit restaurant génial!
