Second Review: 18 May, 2025. I ordered the Scooby Poutine. & it's a go out & try.
The Scooby poutine was really good. It was perfect & not that salty or greasy for my liking. I end up finishing the whole plate.
The service was okay & the ladies were really nice & kind. We had mix servers so be aware of who you are tipping. Also remember the Gov. takes a lot of tips through tax so please be aware.
Love this restaurant & even though there is a line to get in on busy days the wait is worth it.
God Bless the Owners & past & present employees of this restaurant. We will be coming back.
God Bless you & thank you.

Original Review: Please don't send any negativity or hate towards the staff & anyone else involved. This review is my attempt to report on others & my opinion.
Here is my full opinion on La Banquise. We were 2 people dining. At around 1:00PM. On 08 Dec.
Pros:
A) The food is alright.
B) It has a nice atmosphere.
C) Prices are fairly reasonable.
D) Not a far walk from the Metro & they have some services you can use.
Cons:
A) Service was not the best as the waitress was like pass me your plates. You are suppose to pick them up yourself. Anais is who speaks three languages English French & Spanish was a little rude to us. We feel like she did not want to serve us nor help us after we were done eating.
B) The toilet was flushing by itself. Plumbing problems will be bad later on.
C) T-Rex poutine includes bacon but we did not find it on our plate.
D) The place is too small & if you are a person that needs extra space you will be crammed in there.
E) The employees should be more happy & persistent.
F) Parking may be a challenge to find.
Conclusion:
All in all. It's not my favourite place anymore.
I will only dine in if we have guests or visitors or a group but for me personally.
I will be avoiding this place for dine in & maybe just doing takeout if Alone.View more
After being here for 3 years, I finally tried this place. It wasn't worth it for me to wait in line. The place across the street Ma Poulet Mouillé has better poutine.View more
We had the shoot out poutine & spicy sausage hotdog. The fries weren't anything special, the sauce was oddly thick & extremely salty & it didn't have a lot of cheese curds. There was a lot of meat on the poutine, all of it extremely salty. The spicy sausage hotdog was supposed to have a creamy coleslaw & you can see from the photo that there was hardly anything there. Would not recommend.View more
Always a line up, bring time with you. It's famous but the atmosphere could be better, also very very loud. The food & menu itself is amazing. There is something for everyone to find - not only poutine. They also offer salad & great sides along with kids menu.View more
Very very busy place. Went there around 2:30 pm. Have to wait at least 30 minutes to be seated, but it was ok. Food was good but difficult to go in between your table due to not enough space.View more
A must try delicious poutine place in Montreal! I never really liked poutine but this place changed my mind - turns out I just didn't come to Montreal to try the authentic poutine!View more
Must try restaurant. Wait time was short & quick, friendly servers.View more
Bonne endroit pour tester & découvrir la poutine. Portion généreuse & bonne ambiance.
Typique & traditionnel !
Faut y passer !View more
One of the best poutines ive ever had & i am not usually one to have'specialty' poutines. I usually prefer a typical poutine with curds. My hometown in northern ontario has 2 chipstands both ranked top 10 in the world so im well versed in poutinery knowledge & La Banquise''Southwestern' ( i think) poutine with the onion rings & guac was amazing!
Only con of this place is its very small & loud but some people might dig that. Seems like a place people just go in for a quick snack then leave, not hangout for too long. Definitely recommend!View more
Pas d'attente pour avoir une table pour 4.
Ambiance bruyante mais inimitable.
Depuis le temps que l'on me parlait de la Banquise !!!
Super momentView more
They were SLAMMED when we were there but they still managed to seat us & feed us within 20 minutes. &,oh my soul.... The food! Some people like to say'overrated' as if this makes them sound cool & niche. Guys, this place is genuinely good! Better than others? I don't know. But it's definitely not overrated. It lived up to the hypeView more
Bonne expérience, la poutine est délicieuse & mérite sa réputation.
Le seul bémol empêchant les 5 étoiles est le service qui est assez froidView more
