We had to convert a dine-in reservation to a take-out because my ladies weren't feeling great. We got brisket & beef rib. The beef rib was delicious, but the brisket was amazing. So good my picky daughter would *not* stop talking about it. & I agree, it was utterly fantastic...it's no surprise it's won awards.

Beans were tasty, slaw was good, & the wife said the Mac & cheese was good. I'm a celiac & the meals came with separately packed Mac & cheese, & they kept one meal for me without.

Staff was lovely & helpful when I picked up. Will happily return in the future!

Nous sommes fan de smoke house & celui-ci vient de battre notre top 1 ! Cuisson de la viande est exceptionnelle ambiance très familiale, nous avons rencontrez le propriétaire & avons passer un bon moment avec lui au bar a connaitre l'histoire de ce petit restaurant qui est fort intéressante. Il ny a pas de menu car cest en quantité limité pour la viande ! & sincèrement on oubli les menu quand nous goutons a toute la saveurs des viandes!!! Je recommande très fortement ce restaurant & merci encore au propriétaire pour la très belle soirée 😊

Everything about this place is an absolute gem. The price put me off a bit, but it turned out being so worth it! Meat was fresh & tender, drinks were perfect, service was friendly & knowledgeable. Will be returning when I'm back in the area

It's a very restricted menu, but something new to experience at least. Waitress was extremely kind & service was quick even though it was busy.

Came in without a reservation & the owner was able to seat us because it was only my wife & I. He makes just enough food to cover the reservations but did accommodate us & I'm so glad he did. Best brisket I've ever had & the sides were perfect. I highly recommend & we will be back!

Very expensive. They don't have a menu, so you don't really know what to order/what they have & how much it costs. The service was so bad that the chef came out & told the table beside us that the service at the restaurant'was shit.' It opened at 6:00, & they wouldn't seat us because they had'so many reservations,' even though the restaurant only had 2 people in it. She said we could make a reservation for 6:30 - not sure how they expected people who were being seated at 6:00 to be finished by 6:30, but when we did come back at 6:30 the restaurant only had 4 people in it. It was completely empty. The food was fine, the sides were ice cold & since there was no menu, it was kind of unclear what food we were receiving. The decor inside could use a lot of work. I find it hard to believe they have won many awards for their food. While the meat was fine, it was nothing special. I would not recommend nor come back.

We ordered the sharing platter for three people - two beef portions & one pork rib. The portions were huge! I'm someone with a really big appetite, but I couldn't even finish it.

The flavors were absolutely unforgettable. The smoky charcoal aroma combined with the rich, juicy meat was just incredible. Every bite was packed with flavor & left a lasting impression.

This is truly authentic BBQ, both in taste & in portion size. It's a great place to come with friends or family, & one that I would happily return to. Highly recommended if you're looking for delicious, hearty barbecue in Montréal!

Went as a large party for 8 with a reservation. Service was beyond terrible. Took 20 minutes before we got any water, 20 before they took our drink orders, another 20 before we got to *hear* the menu since they don't have one. We had ordered the brisket, the pork ribs, & the chicken for both sides of the table. When we did get the food another 30 minutes after ordering, it was only half of our party's food, & then another 10 minutes before the other platter arrived, with one of the meat orders wrong to boot. They claimed that the wrong order was them swapping out the ribs for the pulled pork so that we'could try out the whole menu'. When it came time to get the bill, they had to take pictures of the bills since their receipt printer was not functioning.

Every single part of the sit down experience was one failure after another up until the very end.

Extremely disappointing with the experience. If you want to try the food, I'd recommend getting it to go or through a delivery app, though I'd still be wary of the price on those.

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.
