Le Jus is an Afternoon to late-night Comfort food Restaurant in Montreal. We serve smashburgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, and sides fast, fresh, and made with care. Our menu is simple but bold. We’re open late so people can grab real food when most places are closed. No gimmicks just good comfort food, halal-friendly, and made for the Montreal night crowd.
Le Jus is described as a small, cozy spot in NDG where the smash burger stands out and the chicken burger is just as memorable, with generous portions and very reasonable prices for the quality, plus friendly staff who make guests feel welcome, a playful vibe with board games, and a concise menu that is well executed; poutine is praised by many, while a few reviews note overly salty patties or undercooked fries and occasional crowding, yet it remains widely regarded as one of the best burger spots in Montreal and a reliable local favorite.
Going in, there's a few place to sit & seems to invite you to chill with board games available. You're welcome by a small counter to order where the staff is friendly & will just openly chat with you.
The service is quick as you'd expect with flavorful food. The smashburger is well executed letting the beef shine in all of its crispy edge glory! The price is decent too. Not to take away from the star, but the fries are amazing & for me, were the highlight.
If you're in the neighborhood & craving for a burger, you can't go wrong here.
I ordered via Uber Eats, this is one of the best smash burgers in town. So tasty, big portion, it will definitely be a repeat for me. My photo may not do it justice but that's the classic burger.
Excellent smash burger, parmi mes préférés de l'île ! La viande est bien grillée & croustillante, le fromage fond divinement bien dessus. Les frites épicées sont superbes. Je ne manquerai pas d'y retourner pour goûter les cheesy fries & le burger au poulet.
?The Food: Fast, fresh, & packed with flavor. ?The Price: Unreal. ~$15 or less for a burger & a cheap upgrade to a combo. ?The Vibe: Chill, non-formal, & the staff are incredibly welcoming.
?It's rare to find quality food at this price.
The sauces & concepts are very well thought of a little wink to the Philippines & the montreal culture is all over this menu.
The fried chicken is generous & flavourfull definitely worth the try.
Don't sleep on this spot!

Sorry,this missed the mark for me. I ordered the bbq burger to go with fries. Im not sure if the excessive salt is the norm but it was way too much for me. The burger was not it for me. It seemed like mayo was added & its not on the ingredients. Also there was so much sauce that the patty seemed non existent. & no napkins on such a messy burger. I had high hopes.
Petit restaurant qui n'a pas l'air de grand chose mais WOW, la nourriture est INCROYABLE. De loin le meilleur burger de poulet frit que j'ai mangé (celui au miel) & un de meilleurs smash burgers que j'ai mangés. La viande est goûteuse, juteuse & parfaitement cuite. Les frites piquantes sont un super accompagnement & le
Grilled cheese, aussi simple qu'il soit (fromage, oignons caramélisés & beaucoup de beurre) est délicieux. Les portions sont très généreuses & les portions hyper abordables. Ils ont aussi un burger du mois avec une saveur vraiment originale à chaque fois. Ça vaut VRAIMENT la visite.
The Smash burgers are really good. I would definitely recommend, they also have student discount combo, which is great for students & is also less expensive than a single Smashburger. It is really cold inside so I would recommend taking out.
