Jack Flat BBQ offers a vibrant Texan-style smokehouse experience that many diners find both festive and memorable. The menu features a variety of meats, with many guests praising the flavor and tenderness of the brisket, ribs, and burgers, while the generous sharing platters make it a popular choice for groups and celebrations. Visitors frequently highlight the welcoming atmosphere, which includes country music and line dancing, contributing to a lively night out. While the high volume of the music can sometimes make conversation challenging, the attentive and professional service provided by the team often enhances the overall visit. Although some guests have had varied opinions regarding specific menu details, sides, or pricing, many consider the restaurant a go-to spot for high-quality meat and a fun, unique dining environment worth returning to.
The best BBQ is here. Brisket, Ribs, Bucket of wings on Sunday -all great. Wish they had better sides like fresh cut fries instead of processed, mashed potatoes, baked beans, etc.. Way better than Diablos (tough beef ribs & brisket)
This was my wife's & I first time visiting Jack Flats BBQ. We arrived at 4pm on a Tuesday & they just opened. We looked at the menu & the server came over & asked if we had questions & we said it was our first here. Here explained the small menu & pointed out the'Jack Flat BBQ Experience' & said that's what they're known for. Not being a stranger to BBQ & have a really good idea as to what great BBQ is & what should come a platter of'Huge meat trays & accompaniments' (that is what is described as) we ordered it for us. It was $49 per person so it would be $98 as it's a 2 person minimum which we were holding at the explanation of the menu or is it listed on the menu. We ordered 2 cokes & they came in the smallest glasses, pretty much a hi ball glass. Our'huge meat trays & accompaniments' arrived & I was very under whelmed at first glance. 1 tray had 4 ribs, 3 pieces of brisket, 3 slices of turkey & 4 pieces of pork belly & 2 pieces of plain white bread. The other tray had fries, caesar salad & green beans. Keep in mind there was no option to pick what meat or accompaniments it came with or did it would t say what it came with. I've been to numerous BBQ places in the US & Canada & this was probably the worst for what was offered in a platter that gives you a good sample of what they have to offer. The turkey was kinda dry & cold, the brisket, ribs & pork were ok, nothing great by any means for their rating of 4.3 with 2.2k reviews. Not sure why anyone would want a caesar salad at a BBQ place but where's the baked beans? The Mac & cheese? The corn bread? The coleslaw? Potato salad? Instead here's some green beans & salad & plain krinkle cut fries & plain white bread. The sausage? The pulled chicken? I gladly would have not had the dry turkey & had a sausage but there was no option to pick your meats or sides. Throughout our meal we asked for refills on out pop & they refilled out small glasses & brought them back. End of the meal I asked for the bill & was charged $3.50 PER POP/REFILL for a total of $17.50 with ZERO mention that the pop wasn't free refills nor did they have ANY mention of fountain drinks on the menu so we didn't know the price. Needless to say the bill came to over $130 after tax & was definitely not worth it. I will not be coming back at all. I know BBQ isn't cheap but the value for your money & the fact no refills on pop & not told about it is ridiculous.
We went to Jackflat BBQ with my wife & our three adult sons & had a great overall experience. We did the Jackflat BBQ experience, had three pitchers of hard drinks the total came to about $516 with tx + tip definitely on the pricey side, but the food was very good & well prepared. The atmosphere was excellent, lively without being overwhelming, & made for a fun family night out. What really stood out was our waitress, she was absolutely amazing, attentive, friendly, & made sure everything ran smoothly. While it's not an everyday kind of place price-wise, it was a memorable experience & we enjoyed ourselves.

We've been to several bbq restaurants in montreal, & they always have some Texas decorations , but this place was blaring country, everyone wearing a Stetson & even a waitress wearing daisy dukes. I've been to places on the south like this. & this was a fun imitation of those.
The menu had did not have much information on what the food actually was going to be. For example no information on what's in the Jack flat burger, just a name & a price.
The food came out really fast.
But none of the food was hot. The bread was toasted but full on cold.
The brisket had a nice smoke ring & taste but tepid. The ribs were dry & lacked taste.
There seems to be some games upstairs. Kids seemed to be having fun
Quelle belle découverte ! La formule jackflat BBQ qui remplit la table d'une multitude de viandes fumées & accompagnements à partager à 50$ par personne, quel merveilleux concept qui nous permet de goûter à tout! & tout est tellement délicieux, un régal 👌👌👌 C'est réellement ma meilleure expérience BBQ ever! Le restaurant est wow, le service est excellent, & l'ambiance est festive. Je recommande fortement Jackflat BBQ pour une très bonne bouffe & un bon moment entre amis.
C'est notre 3e visite au Jack Flat du Centropolis à Laval & non tout est toujours aussi froid! Je comprend que les viandes sont fumées plusieurs heures & que la viande ne sort pas du fumoir live en nous servant. Mais le reste mériterait d'être cuit par contre...
Les frites sont horribles (molles, graisseuses & surtout FROIDES). Pour un resto qui affiche plusieurs poutines au menu c'est une honte. Restez dans le BBQ guys...
Nous avons noté que le brisket, la dinde & le porc sont excellents mais les ribs sont médiocres, durs & élastiques. Mac & cheese sec & froid.
Le menu n'a aucune description, ni photos?
Pour terminer, si vous aimez l'ambiance grosse cafétéria entassée, inconfortable & bruyante, c'est la place!
Mais ne soyez pas inquiet on y retournera pas une 4e fois.
Jack Flat BBQ absolutely blew me away. The food is insane - every bite is packed with flavour, perfectly smoked, & honestly addictive. The meat is tender, juicy, & cooked better than anywhere else I've tried. The sides? Perfect. The portions? Generous. The service? Friendly, fast, & genuinely welcoming.
You can tell they put passion into everything they make. If you want BBQ done right - like seriously right - Jack Flat BBQ is the place. I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could. Hands down the best BBQ experience ever.
We were a group of 5 people & we were recommended to go for the Ranch Menu (59$/person) which gets you a shared platter with all the variety of meats & a shared platter with all of the sides. The meats are all really great. The highlights are definitely the brisket & pork belly. Incredibly tender & flavorful. For the sides, the best ones are the mac & cheese & the fries. The amount of food that comes with the Ranch Menu is more than enough for any appetite. But there is also the option to get theKing Ranch Menu which adds a smash burger per person for 10$.
The service was great. The vibes in the restaurant are also fantastic with Texas Ranch style decor. Plenty of screens to watch sports too.
The price for the dinner came out to 85$ per person with tip (with one diet coke).
All things considered, it was a great experience & I recommend to all BBQ enthusiasts!
It was pretty good. The atmosphere was insane. They got huge tellies for game nights. The BBQ was amazing with very generous portions. We had the King ranch platter. We ended up taking ours leftovers to go. The cocktails... Initially, I had the banana monkey & a friend took the pina colada. Those weren't good. It tasted awful. I dont know what was in there but they had that rotten aftertaste . But they were super comprehensive about it. They changed the cocktails for strawberry daiquiri & that was excellent. I would ,definitely, go back to try some desserts. We were so full we couldn't reached dessert tonight...
