Decent bbq meats. The fried chicken was slightly dry. The ribs were good & tender but very very saucy. The smoked potato salad was amazing.
The service was sort of bad but the restaurant was packed so I don't blame them. They brought us the wrong food & 1 of the guests got his food almost as we were finishing ours.

Straight up I had a really nice time, you should give this place a try if you haven't already.

It recently changed ownership after about a decade of the same guy running it. Apparently he was a well-known chef, but he wanted to retire to a farm. So a father & son bought it & now it has new life. The father (Sal) is the man in my review who is super nice & welcoming!

Food was great! You can't really go wrong with some southern classics like fried chicken, pulled pork tacos, ribs. Loads of flavour & good quality. Fun little ambiance & I'm sure the outdoor terasse in the summer is a great addition.

If you're a kid who grew up in Chomedey , Laval from the late 1970s to the mid 80's & have ever eaten at Moma Bears, they served the exact same fried chicken. Perfectly cooked with a sweet hint of maple syrup.
