Mon chum n'a pas pu commander parce que le personnel ne parlait pas un mot de français. Montréal est une ville bilingue, mais on doit quand même parler un minimum de français. Ce n'est pas normal de ne pas pouvoir commander dans sa langue à Verdun.

Le Petit Wellington is a successful rebranding of Wellington Street's classic Laterna snack bar.
While irradiating a hole in the wall aura, this humble restaurant offers a simple but delicious menu of burgers, fries, poutines, & a few other items. The menu is tight, the choices may be few, but you are guaranteed tasty freshness in both ingredients & preparation.
The poutines & burgers are really good & prices are decent. As of the time of writing this review, the house offers a soup, fries, smash burger & a soda can for 13,99$. Good value.
The place is clean & offers comfortable seats. The clientele is typical'Verdun' but it leads an extra eccentric charm to the place.
It took me 15 years to come here, I plan to make it a regular haunt.
The food was amazing ! I especially loved the smash burgers, they were so good with just the right amount of sauce so it doesn't become soggy. Staff is also very kind & welcoming . Can't wait to come back & try the steak poutine !
I had such a great experience at Le Petit Wellington! The hospitality really stood out-while we were waiting for our food, they kindly offered us soup, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The food itself was fantastic. I highly recommend the smash burger & the poutine both were absolutely delicious.
Delicious, reasonable price, the owners gave a nice healthy little soup while waiting. Tried both a smashburger & the tandoori chicken salad; both were simple & excellent. Wholeheartedly recommend.
More eating room inside than it looks from the outside.
Quel petit bijou! Les employés sont d'une grande gentillesse, le restaurant est très propre & tout est délicieux! La soupe aux lentilles & légumes en entrée est réconfortante, le sous-marin au steak est rempli d'ingrédients frais & savoureux, le smash burger est très bon & les frites aussi. De plus, les prix sont très raisonnables! Ça sera notre nouveau « spot » quand on a envie d'un bon repas réconfortant. 😊
Every single time we go service & food are on point. Today my son went & he told me that they were vraiment gentil avec moi. Their smash burger & poutine are next level :)
