Lattuca Barbecue est largement perçu comme une vraie pépite du barbecue texan à Montréal, offrant des portions généreuses et des viandes fumées à point accompagnées de sides savoureux tels que mac and cheese, coleslaw et baked beans. Le brisket et les ribs reviennent le plus souvent comme des incontournables, le tout dans une ambiance chaleureuse et décontractée et un service qui peut être attentif même lors des périodes les plus chargées. Certains avis soulignent l'absence d'un menu écrit et des prix relativement élevés, ainsi que des temps d'attente ou des soucis de service, mais la qualité de la viande et le goût fumé restent largement loués. Le concept repose sur un plateau partagé et une cuisson au charbon, ce qui permet de goûter plusieurs viandes et de satisfaire les appétits généreux. Pour les amateurs de barbecue, c'est une adresse à ne pas manquer lorsque l'on visite le Vieux-Montréal, avec une expérience souvent décrite comme parmi les meilleures BBQ hors des Etats-Unis par les visiteurs. En somme, c'est une destination prisée des connaisseurs recherchant une viande fumée authentique, des plats copieux et une ambiance conviviale, même si une organisation plus fluide du service et une meilleure communication sur les tarifs seraient appréciées.
Great place to go if you are looking for a great dish of brisket, ribs, smoked chicken. The cocktails were really good too. This was our first visit but this restaurant has been included in our list of favorites ones. John the owner is a very kind, sweet & passionate of his work. Thanks John & your team for a beautiful dinner & evening 😀.
As soon as the pilot says we can use our phones, I text Gianni & asks him to save me a Beef Rib. Not many BBQ spots north of Texas can do a beef rib as good as this guy… of course I'll have the brisket, the pulled pork & the ribs too & then roll home, very happy.

Meat is of a good quality. We had brisket, beef rib & pulled pork.
What I didn't find in comment section that is important: if you come as a group you have to order 1 option of meats & sides for everyone. You cannot order your choice of meats or sides. Even though each of you is paying separately, the choice gets limited to only one. So make sure that you share tastes with everyone in the room otherwise you're stuck with the majority.
My friend & I were looking for Bbq & stumbled across this place on google maps. The service we got was impeccable & the food was just as good as it looks! We got the sharing plate with 3 meats & 3 sides. All the sides (mac & cheese, coleslaw, & beans) were flavourful & all of the meats (smoked chicken, beef rib, brisket) were tender & moist. I'd love to come back to try the other meats next time! The atmosphere was cozy as well & we were sat by the window.
Let me tell a little story. About 3 weeks prior to visiting Lattuca, I was in Dallas, & had some great BBQ while down in sunny Texas. When a co worker said we were going to Quebec, & he booked reservations at'An amazing' BBQ place, I was confused. Quebec & BBQ didn't go together in my mind. But, oh how wrong I was. Latucca may very well be the BEST BBQ I have ever had, & I'd like to think I've had a lot, having lived in NC for 4 years. We ordered a group platter, each with our own set of sides, & those by themselves could have been a meal. The Slaw, with a vinaigrette base was amazing. Great Mac & Cheese, & the baked beans were as well. But that meat platter, holy crap. Pulled pork, pork ribs, & brisket. I have absolutely 0 critiques, & 0 complaints. John Lattuca may have to open a place in Seattle so I don't go broke flying to Quebec for dinner. Outstanding place. Thank you Pitmaster Latucca, & staff for the amazing experience.
The Best BBQ Outside of Texas!
We come to Lattuca BBQ year after year all the way from Ontario, & every single visit reminds us why this place is unbeatable. The smoked meat here is absolutely phenomenal-tender, juicy, & packed with flavor that rivals the best Texas barbecue.
The brisket melts in your mouth, the ribs are perfection, & the sides complement everything beautifully. The atmosphere is warm & welcoming, & you can feel the passion behind every dish.
If you're in Montreal & love authentic BBQ, this is THE spot. Worth every mile of the trip!

I was introduced to this style BBQ around 8 years ago by a good friend. I was apprehensive about how this experience would go as it's mostly just meat. We took a share platter with all 5 meats. After the first bite, that instant tender, melt in your mouth, smokey meat hit my palate just right. That beef rib is the best rib I've ever eaten. This meal is not for everyone, but I can honestly say that if you like BBQ, try LATTUCA once in your life. If you like Texas style BBQ, this is the place to be. They also have a nice variety of alcohol to go with the meal.
Since going 8 years ago, I've tried to share this experience with other BBQ enthusiasts every chance I've had. The staff are very friendly & attentive. The owner is very down to earth & a great host. Even though he is extremely busy managing & trying to cater to everyone, he tries his best to cordially convers with all of his guests.
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!
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.
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.
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?'
Both ribs (beef & porc) were really amazing. By far the best I had in town. The sides, the pulled pork & the service however are really not as good (service a bit slow with no water refill, pork a little dry & lacking flavour other than smoked). Id definitely go again for those awesome ribs though, they are truly top quality.
Horrible service!! Reserved for 2 at 6pm, arrived at 5:58, only to receive our food after an hour & a half, when tables who arrived after us received their order around 7pm. We had to call the waitress twice, & obviously they completely forgot our order.
Beef ribs were burnt & super salty on the outside, but bland to no taste in the inside. Brisket was okay, tender & at least evenly salty, but that's it, no other flavor. The only flavorful thing was the mac & cheese.
Also, during our entire visit, our cup didn't get refilled not even once, I was so thirsty at the end that I started eating ice :)
Absolutely amazing BBQ! The beef brisket & beef rib were both incredible - juicy, tender, & full of smoky flavor. Easily some of the best I've had in Canada. The sides were great too, especially the baked beans & mac & cheese. Portions are generous & perfect for sharing. Great vibes, friendly staff, & worth every penny. A must-visit for any BBQ lover in Montreal!
Tried the barbecue beef & smoked chicken. The beef was quite greasy, & while flavorful, the rib's crispy edge was too hard to chew & overly salty. The smoked chicken turned out a bit dry.
Service was average - about 20 minutes wait for the order. On the bright side, the country-style background music created a relaxed & pleasant dining atmosphere. Decent experience, but not quite memorable.
