About

Lattuca Barbecue functions as a specialized smokehouse focused on authentic, slow-cooked American barbecue techniques. The menu features premium cuts of meat prepared with traditional dry rubs and finished over hardwood smoke to achieve a distinct depth of flavor. Signature offerings include tender beef brisket, succulent pulled pork, and glazed ribs served alongside house-made accompaniments. The preparation process prioritizes prolonged cooking durations that break down connective tissues to ensure optimal texture and moisture retention. Guests encounter a straightforward menu configuration centered on meat-forward plates and classic sides designed to complement the smoke-heavy profile of the main dishes. This establishment maintains a functional atmosphere suited for focused exploration of regional barbecue traditions and bold, savory flavor profiles derived from meticulous temperature control.

Best barbecue in Montreal I've had. The meat just falls off, & they have a dual platter where you can try all their sides that's great with a friend or date. Service is a bit slow however, we waited more than 30-40 minutes for our meal. It seems they have the cooks bring the food from the kitchen, then cut & plate it at a separate counter. They have a confusing menu, where it's a flat price with some add-ons. Just let the employees explain it to you. 😅 I've also attached it in the fourth image.

Apart from the food being 10/10, it was the most hospitable dining experience I've ever had. John is a great guy with great stories & he sure knows his way around some good southern style bbq. If your from Montreal or anywhere else, make it a point to come here, you won't be disappointed.

Best smokehouse on the island. The beef ribs are what it looks like the most of what we find at the best smokehouses in Texas.

Wonderful to chuck down warm meat during the cold winter, then washing down with beers or whisky. Had a mix platter that came with 3 sides which are pretty decent but the meat are the highlights. Flavourful, tenderness, juicy meat with sauce. Smoked brisket & ribs are fabulously cooked. Melting away from each other as you pull them with your fingers. Chicken isn't dry & is tender to chew.

I reserved a table for 6 at Lattuca BBQ & I was so happy & looking forward to go & eat this supposly very good Pitmaster. So dissatisfied it's not even close to what I hate or tried in other smokehouse or BBQ joint. The pulled pork was full of fat. The pork ribs there was one little piece as you can see in the pictures. The brisket was good but portion were very small. The best piece of meat was the beef rib that's why I gave it 2*. Sides were limited to 3 choices. Baked beens coleslaw & very little portion of mac n cheese. No fries & nothing else. I found it pricy on top of it all. I had heard some good things about the place. But the end result was very deceiving. I would think twice if I would of known this before. Don't waste your money go somewhere else. BtW the menu you see on the website is not updated / not good anymore (does not update the menu) & no menus at the restaurant either. PS owner M.Lattuca had no carisma unfriendly & lacking interpersonal skills. I've seen owners make you feel very welcomed in their restaurant, but this guy, needs to work on his skills set in all areas!!!! Happy Birthday to me
