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.

Nourriture excellente avec un service hyper sympathique! Les nachos & le pichet de Bourbon Lemonade sont un must!

Fried chicken to die for. I crave it sometimes, lol. We enjoy going there for an early dinner & a couple of bourbon lemonades. Music is good & service as well. Very familiar & easy going spot.

The person I am assuming is the owner/manager is warm & welcoming. He suggested ordering the whiskey lemonade & it did not disappoint. The taco I ordered was just okay. There isn't much meat in it, so for $13 for two, that was disappointing.

What bothered me is that I asked for a side order of their smoked potato salad, which sounded really interesting, but the waitress decided not to bring it because'someone else's meal comes with potatoes'...soooo I'm just supposed to force them share their food with me? I wanted to laugh when she brought it because there was only about 1 1/2 tbs of potatoes. To her credit, she did say she would bring some if I'really wanted it,' but she had no right to make the decision she did in the first place. That pissed me off, so I won't be returning.

The place was just down from our airbnb. Two of us decided to stop in for a beer. As we walked in, we both commented on how cool the atmosphere was. Service was great that night, & the food smelled incredible. 2 nights later we went with our group of 5 for dinner. The Burritos, Nachos, & Po'Boy sandwiches were incredible, not to mention the house specialty drink, Bourbon Lemonade. The service was incredible as well. They were very welcoming. Well worth checking out!!

Not what it used to be, but was still good. Lemonade is a bit on the sweet side... you've been warned!
