VERY DISAPPOINTING

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.

Meat was good!

We were a big group so we had to order the group menu with different meat & sides.

All the meats was the stars of the show, If I could, I would have not ordered the chicken wings, they were really mid. The fries & all the veggy sides were good.

The drinks were waaaay to sweet.

That place is huge, has two floors & outdoor seating.

Je ne crois pas que tous les avis soient authentiques. Peut-être suis-je allé au mauvais moment, mais ce que j'ai mangé n'est pas ce que vous mangeriez dans un BBQ du sud des États-Unis. Un brisket est censé être tendre & se défaire à la fourchette, en raison de la cuisson lente nécessitant plusieurs heures. Le mien était plutôt sec. Le pork belly était très gras, car le gras n'avait pas'fondu' entre les morceaux de viande. J'ai donc dû retirer le gras. Les ribs de boeuf étaient bons, mais pas mémorables. La dinde avait bon goût mais pas extraordinaire non plus. Des drinks a 14$, une bière light à 9$, bref ne vous imaginez pas dépenser moins de 75$ par personne, au bas mot. Avec mes deux enfants qui ont partagé une petite poutine, un plateau dégustation, 1 cocktail & une bière, on parle de 220$ avec pourboire. Un des employés qui amenait la nourriture aux tables étaient frustré de la vie peut-être & disait des commentaires aux enfant du style:' il va falloir que tu tasses le cellulaire si tu veux manger un jour mon grand' alors qu'il venait tout juste d'arriver a notre table par derrière. Il parlait pas mal comme ca a tout le monde autour. Heureusement, les autres serveurs étaient gentils & avenants, mais il ne faut pas s'attendre a un service personnalisé, c'est bondé de monde. Les gens que je connais qui y sont allés disent que c'est plus un endroit pour boire des bières & cocktails entre amis, mais encore là, à ce prix, il faut avoir du budget pour y passer la soirée!

Il faut absolument réserver & bien à l avance . La nourriture arrive très ( trop ) vite . Ils te donnent 2 h . C est très bon . Conseil prenez plat partage de viande vous avez un peu de tout & c est excellent. Les burgers & autres viennent sans accompagnement. Il faut commander à part . Le brisket est de loin notre favori . Les drinks sont très bons . Bco de bruit mais c est le but aussi . Service rapide attentionnée. Endroit pour fêter donc grinchatds s abstenir . Nous reviendrons .

The food is to die for , bring an empty stomach because you are going to fill it up! Might not suggest for a first date because you will be bloated ( for a good cause). Servers are polite & are all in cowboy apparel which is awesome!! The ambiance is very nice however the music might be a little louder than one would like. The drinks are also fantastic. This quickly became my favorite restaurant! ♡☆

Waiters & waitresses were excellent. We were a group of 21 & no ones had to wait long for asking for something. Food was really good & also drinks. Around 10pm, there were people dancing on country musics.

Unbelievable food right from the smoker they have on display. The meat was incredible, & the service was also phenomenal. Our server Felix was super attentive & helpful, always with a big smile, food came out really fast, & when one of our drinks came our wrong (due to a machine problem, the bar staff are also great), he changed it immediately. Really, I am very impressed with this place. Shout out to Felix for the great service & the whole team for a fantastic meal. The only thing I think could improve is that the selection of hot sauces. Frank's red hot & tabasco don't qualify as "hot" sauce to me, would have killed for something stronger. Otherwise 10/10. UPDATE: We came back & it's still fantastic. Miguel was our server this time & once again the service was impeccable. The meat is out of this world & I can't stress enough how fast it comes out, it's amazing. The sauces still leave something to be desired. Could improve on this point still

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.

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 !

Le service était médiocre. J'aurais dû écrire moi même sur la tablette. Le repas était très ordinaire. Je fais de meilleurs burger. Par contre la salade de patates était très bonne. Les drinks étaient banale mais au moins il y avait de l'alcool. Zéro ambiance à l'extérieur.

First time at this type of restaurant, I was not expecting the interior to be decorated in such ways. The place is clean & the staff is really friendly. The waiter was made the effort to speak English to us despite his mild accent. The food was good, but nothing to impressing to make, & it was an interesting experience for the decor. The place is intriguing. This is more of a place to go have a casse-croute & have some drinks with friends. I would probably go back one day.
