About

Icehouse specializes in authentic Texan barbecue and vibrant Southern cuisine that emphasizes bold flavors and high quality ingredients. The menu centers on expertly seasoned fried chicken paired with house-made honey butter and spicy hot sauces that define the regional culinary profile. Diners encounter a selection of flour tortillas filled with slow-cooked proteins and fresh garnishes representing traditional taco culture. The interior reflects an unpretentious industrial aesthetic featuring rustic textures and communal seating arrangements that facilitate a direct focus on the food. Each dish relies on traditional smoking techniques to achieve deep, savory profiles throughout the extensive protein options. Patrons experience a consistent commitment to comfort food classics that honor the culinary traditions of the American South through precise preparation and robust flavor combinations.

I love this place ! Eric in the kitchen is great! Fried chicken is amazing... best fried chicken to be honest. It's juicy & crunchy. The batter is TOP. Jalapenos Poppers with ranch, 7 layers with the good kind of tortillas chips. They have Tacos as well !!

There's also this Italian Father-Son duo that I adore , great service & great conversation.

Definitely a must try.

À notre arrivée, il y a eu une légère confusion en lien avec notre réservation. Par contre, ils ont réglé la situation assez rapidement & en plus nous ont compensé pour le malentendu. Un excellent service!

La bouffe est incroyable. Le poulet frit est tendre, juteux & croustillant sans être trop gras. Les portions sont très généreuses & les prix raisonnables.

Use to come here religiously in university with my buddies from 2021-2024, made a trip down memory lane tonight for a solo dinner & couldn't be happier. Although under new management this year, I couldn't notice a difference & only noticed improvements (especially in $). Father + Son owners were legends, I'll defiantly be back for the $1 wing nights when habs play (go leafs)

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!!

Présent pour une game de hockey entre amis, on a eu le droit à des ailes de poulet à 1$ ch ! Malade comme endroit, on s'y sent comme à la maison
