Fantastic smash burger location

Le Rookie is so good. Cream cheese & hot honey is an incredible mix of flavors that blend so well together. +2$ for extra patty (very reasonable price). Cheesy fries were really good too. All around fantastic burger experience. Definitely recommend for all burger lovers.

Service was super friendly. Atmosphere in the restaurant is great with nice decor & games available to play too.

Hands down best smash burger & chicken sandwich spot in montreal. Chef is an absolute assassin in the kitchen, I casually walked in & ordered 1 smash & 1 chicken, I was so shocked I got up & asked for another burger & the guy suggested the smash with honey & jalapenos/cream cheese, unforgettable. Chef knows how to make a proper skirt for a smash burger, thin crispy perfection. Only sad part about my experience was not having enough room to try more things. Highly recommended, absolute gem for montreal.

A Five-Star Masterpiece of Culinary Aggression
Oh, please-strap yourselves in. If you're tired of'edible' food &'reasonable' textures, you simply must visit Le Jus on Monkland. I'd give it five stars, but honestly, five stars feels like an insult to the sheer, unbridled local heroism happening in this tiny room.
Here is why you need to drop everything & support these'good local people' before they accidentally fix the economy entirely:
The'Smash' in Smashburger
We started with the classic hamburger. It's a'smashburger,' & they really took the name to heart. Most places just sear the meat; these visionaries apparently pulverized it into a state of crispy, lacy defiance.
The Bun: Suspiciously soft. Like a cloud that's given up on life.
The Cheese:'Delicious' in that way that makes you wonder why you ever bothered with fancy imports when you could have this molten yellow joy.
The Fries: Let's talk about the oil. It was so fresh I suspect they pressed the olives (or canola, or whatever magical elixir they use) right behind the counter while staring me in the eyes. Lightly spiced, crispy, &-thank the heavens-not frozen. Because nothing says'I'm a culinary elite' like identifying a potato that hasn't seen the inside of a freezer.
The Weaponized Chicken Sandwich
But the pièce de résistance? The Fried Chicken Sandwich. This isn't a meal; it's a structural integrity test for your jaw.
'I have to tell you, it was the best fried chicken sandwich I've had in Canada. It was so crispy that I remarked to my son that I'm afraid I'm going to break a tooth.'
Finally! A restaurant that offers the thrill of a high-stakes dental emergency with every bite. If you aren't risking a $2,000 crown for a spicy honey glaze, are you even eating? The combination of that glaze & the jalapenos provides a lovely distraction while you pray your molars hold up against the sheer, tectonic crunch of that breading.
Why You Must Go
Support them. Not because the food is good (which it is, in a terrifyingly crunchy way), but because they are'local.' & as we all know, local calories don't count, & local grease is basically a charitable donation to the neighborhood.
Go to Le Jus. Bring your son. Bring your dental insurance card. It's a riot.

The chicken burgers were amazing.
The beef burgers were super tasty but also super smashed.
Easy on the smashing boys!

It's hands-down the best Smash Burger on this side of town. I had The Rookie, & it was a work of art. Seems like a busy little spot, but I arrived at 6pm on a Thursday night & was still able to have'date night' vibes with a friend that gave us plenty of time to eat & get in a good visit/chat. May have been a bit too crowded for that if we'd have gone at 7pm. I will be going back to try the chicken sandwich soon. The anime decore was unique & a welcome addition to NDG.
