If you want elite smokehouse bbq, this place is incredible. An amazing gem in Montreal! You will leave full & very satisfied! The brisket & beef ribs are INCREDIBLE! I've eaten a lot of bbq & Lattuca is by far the best.

Although I haven't had the chance to eat at Lattuca Barbecue yet, I already feel like a valued customer, & that speaks volumes. I had a reservation for Sunday, July 20th, 2025 (3pm-5pm), & was genuinely impressed when someone from the restaurant personally called my cell to cancel in advance due to a family obligation. That level of courtesy & communication is rare these days.
It's clear that Lattuca Barbecue cares not only about the food they serve but also about the people they serve it to. I truly appreciated the heads-up & the respectful way it was handled.
I'm really looking forward to finally visiting & trying their famous brisket. I've heard nothing but great things! If their customer service is any indication, I'm sure the food will be just as incredible.
Thanks again, Lattuca team, see you soon!

Should be up to the standard if they charge that much for little food & service (some staff were attentive)

Nous avons pris lebeepas de groupes pour 8. Tout simplement délicieux…wow. Nous avons compris rapidement la raison pour laquelle le chef John a remporté ses prix. Nous recommandons ce restaurant à tout les amateurs de brisket &/ou de smoker. Excellent service nous allons y retourner assurément.

Both the beef ribs & the chicken were amazing. Seriously good. But the hot side dishes were all cold. As for service, I cannot stress how terrible it was. Firstly there's no menu, so you have no idea what anything costs. Our drinks arrived after 30 minutes, we were never given napkins, our order was given to another table, & instead of fixing it the server just disappeared. We had to fix it amongst ourselves. Oh & I was asked if we want the bill while I was still eating. I might do takeout for the ribs again, but this is not a place one should be dining in if this is the standard service.

Poor menu choices
High quality beef
Needed to be wiped
Too expensive

I was in Austin a few months ago & this place holds its own with Franklin BBQ.

No joke. Best smoke meat EVER, in MONTREAL. No kidding. Typical Texan style & I love it.

The menu is verbal only which is fine since it's so simple. The brisket was a bit dry but the pulled pork & pork rib were really good! The service was very fast & the sides were good.

Stumbled upon this gem, the brisket, beef ribs & chicken was amazing, delicious, tender, & flavourful! The sides of coleslaw, Mac n cheese & baked beans were also delicious & flavourful ! The staff were friendly, & were great fun! Highly recommend this place for a wonderful experience! 'Can we get a pitcher of the water?'

Une envie de barbecue texan m'a poussé à aller tester le Lattuca - & que dire à part que je reste sur ma faim dans tous les sens du terme. Une fois les taxes & le pourboire ajouté, le plateau avec 2 viandes & 2 accompagnements revient à environ 45$. Les portions sont petites, le tout est servi à peine tiède, le brisket est trop cuit, les fèves semblent sorties d'une conserve, même le mac&cheese est décevant, seul le porc effiloché tire son épingle du jeu. Niveau ambiance c'est bien triste pour une soirée d'été, la musique est à peine audible, le lieu manque de décoration. Bref, je ne le recommande pas du tout!

Brisket tasted like Jesus's sandal & the macaroni & cheese was a sloppy watery mess, however the Smoked beans were genuinely life changing. I can go on & on & on about how delicious these beans were, I am honestly considering bringing my partner just to eat a bunch of beans. The poor patrons that night haha!

Great food, great service, reasonable price (given the portions!). I'm not an expert on BBQ but the meat was delicious, particularly the brisket. Would highly recommend.
Lukas
Enjoyed the food very much & was very pleased & honored to meet the owner himself who was down to earth, & a gentleman . & we will be back, & we will bring more people with us.

Had dinner here with my sister a few nights ago & the food was amazing. Everything was so tasty & fell right from the bone. Also the staff were super nice & accommodating. Would definitely come back anytime :)

The brisket was incredible & the rest of the food was delicious too. Will be back for more. Service was great.

I love this place. We go every year we're in town for the Grand Prix. Great BBQ, & that's coming from someone that lives in Alabama.
