Jack Flat BBQ offers a vibrant, festive atmosphere with a unique Western theme that many guests enjoy for gatherings and sports events. A wide variety of smoked meats, particularly the brisket, ribs, and smash burgers, are frequently highlighted as delicious, generous, and flavorful. While the service is often praised as being attentive, friendly, and efficient, experiences can vary depending on the evening. Some visitors feel the pricing is on the higher side and note that the lively environment can get quite loud, which may not suit everyone. Although a few guests have encountered inconsistencies with food temperature or portion balance, many others describe their time there as a memorable and authentic BBQ experience that warrants a return visit.
If you want to eat some succulent ribs & a juicy brisket voilà Jack Flat BBQ The service & the food take you to the state of Texas 🇺🇸, I loved it & it exceeded my expectations. Thanks Guy's 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Too expensive on the meat for the portion size & It was cold when it got to the table. I know it's smoked, but there was still a good amount of unrendered fat on the ribs which was less than appetizing cold. I was expecting something closer to what I experienced in Nashville, the food was just not there. Drinks at Happy hour were a good price. Ketchup bottle was old & fermenting, it literally exploded when we opened the cap 😂 Atmosphere is great, so it's a shame.
Unfortunately, the food was just bad. Side dishes are better then the meat, which is fine but lacks in flavor & warmth. Overpriced like all bbq places, good service & ambiance... But I cannot recommend the bbq meat. Tough ribs, ok brisket, porc belly wasn't much to write home about. Turkey was fine, you can't mess it up. The offered sauces where good.

Visited Jack Flat's on my first time in Laval's centropolis as it seemed like the most unique choice. They put the space to great use, adorning the room with lots of southern-cowboy-esque decor. They even clear space for square dancing in the evenings which was fun to see. The service was great. Lots of seating on their outdoor patio section. A very impressive drink menu with loads of fun options. As for the food menu, the variety is alright. Some good options, with the ribs probably being the top pick. The brisket was good but paled in comparison to others I've had. I'm a huge mac n cheese love so couldn't skip that, I was pleased with the level of creaminess. Doesn't come close to real Southern BBQ but for Quebec, it will do.
First impression was it was super country decided & well lit up inside. You gotta reserve in advance though as this place is super busy & lines go outside to her in if you don't réserve. I w had the pork belly, ribs, brisket & potatoes it was SOOOOOO good - just like what you'd eat in Tennessee, Texas. My only complaint is that I wanted more drinks & the waitress was busy obviously with the crazy amount of people !
Amazing food! Amazing atmosphere!! Love the food the meats were all good whit a smoky flavor & fall apart. We ordered the rodeo tasting menu for 3 which the server explained really well how it worked. However when we got the food we got a platter whit some smash burgers ( wich we dint order) Whit the platter or meats. We let the server know tht we dint get this but since they had alrdy dropped the food & we ate some fries from them they coudnt take it back. The server let us know tht we got somebody's else order & brought us the alrdy forgotten mac & chesse. Later while eathing we realised we only had one piece of meat each, one rib piece & one slab of brisket. We later asked the waitress if the order we got was truly ours but she assured us we got more than enought food for 3. All this to say we woudve loved to seen wht we woudve got instead of the burgers maybe they coudve replaced it whit the actuall sides the dish comes whit as we dint really want 2 burgers ( in wauch were 3 not even 2). Anyways loved the food tho if I would to go back would be just for some meat by pound & not the tasting menu.
I have eaten at over 50 BBQ restaurants throughout North America. Crappy BBQ, McRib has more flavor. When Jack Flat BBQ started it was great, now sadly because they're at a price point they cannot charge more, they have cheapened the quality. 1. Bread was stale 2 cheap ketchup not Heinz 3. Ribs had no flavor & hardly could taste any smoke, just a lot of salt. 4. French fries were not warm, just sitting in a pan, waiting to be served A disappointment & very expensive, I will not go back, now if you want great BBQ near Montreal go to Robbie's Smokehouse & Burger Bar, best BBQ in Quebec.
Samedi 24 août 2024 | 19 h 30. Beaucoup de monde. On arrive sans réservation. On attend environ 5 min & nous sommes placés sur la terrasse. Serveur agréable [jeune homme châtain assez corpulent]. Service correct, rien d'exceptionnel, d'empressé ou authentique. Je prends une bière 0.5 % IPA amère. Goût teinté par le verre mal lavé avec odeur de vaisselle (!). Ça part mal lol! Je demande « si la salade de chou est bonne? ». Me répond honnêtement. Je la reçois avec mon Jack Flat Smashburger & elle est très bonne! Aucun enjeu de ce côté. De style maison. Hamburger épicé & aussi excellent. Viande goûteuse. Attention, il est épicé, mais pas indiqué comme tel au menu. Aucun problème de mon côté toutefois. Les prix sont compétitifs. Mais tout doit être acheté « à la carte ». Mon ami a pris des Ribs & il a dit qu'elles étaient excellentes. Petite portion toutefois : 3 ribs/16 $. Pour moi : 43 $ [service 15 % inclus] pour 1 bière 0.5 % | 1 salade de choux | 1 hamburger. Prix correct & même assez compétitif. Mon ami a trouvé absurde le prix du dessert maison [renversé fraise/rhubarbe] à 12 $ (!). Ça ne valait jamais ça : petite portion avec crème glacée commerciale à la vanille. 5 ou 6 $ maximum! Pour un bon dessert, mais c'est maison & ça n'a aucune finesse. Thème « Western » un peu trop appuyé à mon goût avec des rodéos & autres stampedes qui jouent en boucle sur les TVs dans la salle à manger (!). Sur la terrasse, c'était bien. All & all : je retourne probablement. Plats servis rapidement, même si le restaurant était bondé. Service pas assez attentionné ou authentique Serveur s'est présenté toutefois, ce qui se voit rarement de nos jours. Pas de sel/poivre entier sur les tables. Poivre cheap. Revoir l'attention ou suivi aux tables par vos serveurs [« Tout est correct ici?; Vos plats sont à votre goût? » Etc. ] 4/5
Awesome date night. Shared the assorted smoked meat platter with sides. Loved the ribs & homemade bbq sauces. We got to meet the owner & visit the huge smoker. He had us taste the best bite of bbq OMG! We now have to come back & eat the brisket on the bread topped with a pickle & some pickled onions! He took the time to answer all my newbie smoker owner husband's questions, that was above & beyond of him. The owner's passion for BBQ is contagious. Thank you so much Cédrick for that wonderful experience! See you soon!
This place makes you feel as if you had taken a plane down to Texas, including the famous southern hospitality. We even got a tour of the fumoir. As one enters the decor gets you in the mood. The aroma of the food is enebriating. But once you get served the magic starts for real. The ribs, the pork belly, the brisket, oh the brisket!!! Everything is so masterfully cooked. The meats melt in your mouth 😋😋😋 I think our family has found our new favorite spot. Highly recommended!
