Excellent meal. I had the classic smoke meat sandwich with fries. Great place to bring tourists because it is 100 percent Montreal. Excellent service. I will be back.
Très bon service. L'assiette avait une bonne portion de salade mais les brochettes étaient un peu carbonisés. Bon rapport qualité prix pour la table d'hôte. Le patron vient aux tables s'assurer qu'on est satisfait.
I've heard about this place a couple of time & I was disappointed. The poutine wasn't a real poutine, wrong cheese ! Instead of cheese curds they used Mozzarella ! & the smoked meat was normal. Nothing special about it. & The portion is quite small .
Five of us went there for dinner last night. Their smoked meat was absolutely spectacular. Highly recommend it. The hamburger was terrific as well. The pizza was good, but not quite as good as I had hoped. The rest (we also got poutine, Caesar salad, & butterfly shrimp) were just average. Then we tried 3 of their desserts: strawberry cheesecake (terrific), caramel carrot cheesecake (good), & sugar pie (stale & not good at all). Good service overall, they were very accommodating for our large group.

Was pleasantly surprised. We all had the smoked meat with fries & coleslaw, & if course a slice of pickle. We had the medium fat. It was very tasty. My 90 year old Italian mom ate everything on her plate except the pickle. & that says it all. Also, the waitress was very pleasant & spoke both our official languages.
Ça faisait longtemps que je voulais essayer cette place.
Mon sandwich smoked meat était bon, mais ça paraissait que c'était des frites congelées & elles n'étaient pas assisonnées. Des frites avec des patates fraîches goutent meilleur & ça réduit le food cost.
Côté service, j'ai été pris en charge assez rapidement, mais j'ai trouvé étrange de me faire demander si je voulais remplacer ma frite par une poutine avec mon smoked meat. Ça ne se fait pas selon moi. Ensuite je me fais demander si je veux du fromage Suisse dans mon smoked meat. Si j'en avais voulu, j'aurais commandé un Reuben, pas un sandwich smoked meat. Au moins elle ne m'a pas demandé si je voulais de la moutarde dedans.
La serveuse est venue me voir seulement une fois, c'était 5-6 minutes après que j'aie terminé mon repas. Aucun remplissage d'eau, même pas venue me demander si tout était correct, rien.
Bref, c'est parce que le smoked meat était bon que j'ai donné 3 étoiles. Pour le reste, on repassera.
