The menu centers on thick-cut, flavor-dense sandwiches served on rye bread with classic yellow mustard and crisp pickles.

Review Summary

Jarry Smoked Meat is widely regarded by many as a classic Montreal institution, praised for its juicy, tender smoked meat and nostalgic diner atmosphere that has remained consistent for decades. While many patrons frequently highlight the excellent, friendly service and generous portions as reasons for their long-term loyalty, experiences can be polarized; some diners express disappointment regarding the quality of the frozen fries, the texture of certain meat orders, or occasional lapses in service staff attentiveness. Despite mixed opinions on sides like pickles and poutine, the restaurant remains a go-to destination for those seeking a traditional, no-frills meal, with many highlighting the homemade cheesecake as a must-try highlight of their visit.

Si vous voulez un vrai smoked meat des années 80 & des frites cuites dans du shortening animal qui goûtent le ciel vous êtes à la bonne place! Le gâteau au fromage est divin en passant

First time in Montreal & I'm so glad I stopped at Jarry Smoked Meat.

The staff were absolutely amazing & made me feel welcome right away. Since I had never been there before, I asked them to bring me whatever they considered their signature meal for a first-time visitor. They suggested the smoked meat sandwich with fries, coleslaw, & a pickle-& wow, what a great choice.

The smoked meat was incredibly tender, juicy, & full of flavour. One of the best sandwiches I've had. Everything on the plate was fresh & delicious.

For dessert, I asked my waitress what her favourite was, & she recommended the strawberry cheesecake. It was fantastic. I was already pretty full, but it was too good not to keep going. I couldn't quite finish it, but I gave it my best effort!

Great food, outstanding service, & some of the friendliest staff you'll meet. Experiences like this are what make travelling memorable.

I'll definitely be back if I find myself in Montreal again.
Highly recommended!

Nice experience my wife gave you a 6 & I gave you a 4.
You need to make sure your rye bread is not dry, even though you get it each day, the smoke meat guy needs to be more diligent when making that expensive sandwich.
Dry rye bread kills the sandwich.

Will for sure be back. 👍

Ça faisait très longtemps que je n'y étais pas allé, & c'était aussi bon que la dernière fois 😉. Leur smoked meat est toujours aussi bon ! Un incontournable si vous êtes fans le coin. Ou pas, tsé, c'est assez bon pour faire un détour!

I left Montreal 34 yrs ago & when I return to see my family about twice a year, I always make a stop at Jarry's. Consistently good food & exceptional service. Worth the drive. Wether it's the smoke meat special or pizza or Reubens, you will not be disappointed.
