We've been here three times in the last two days… & we're already planning to go back again.
The food is amazing, the service is great, & the price point makes it even better.
I originally ordered the bacon burger, & honestly-it's the best smashburger I've ever had.
I didn't realize it came with soup, & I was a little hesitant at first because I'm pretty picky about soup-but wow. It's packed with flavor & ended up being the perfect addition to the meal.
The chicken sandwich is also really good. It has a thin, slightly sweet BBQ sauce that makes it stand out from other chicken sandwiches.
The poutine steak fries are delicious, & the regular fries are absolutely perfect, in my opinion.

As a true poutine enthusiast with a very high bar for authenticity-having tried countless spots across Montreal & the regions-I was skeptical at first. But, I'm so glad I gave this place a chance. The poutine was excellent, high-quality, & clearly made with respect for the dish with fresh potatoes.
What really set the experience apart was the hospitality & service. While I waited for my takeout that I ordered on place, the server kindly invited me to sit & brought over a complimentary homemade vegetable soup. It was such a thoughtful (& delicious!) gesture. I've never been to a restaurant that offers a free soup of the day while you wait-it was such a kind touch! Great food & even better service-I'll definitely be back!

Small, vintage Verdun diner with amazing food! No complaints whatsoever! Whatever you choose on the menu comes with a delicious soup-du-jour (I would have asked for seconds). I ordered the smash burger Wellington & it did not disappoint one bit! Same for the poutine with chicken nuggets!❤? So glad we went there today!
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.
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 :)
I hate going to places 30 minutes before they close. We ended up staying 15 minutes past closing. It was cold -18 nd my wife & I wanted to try this place out. One word for the owner: welcoming. Amazing service, food was delicious, had the steak poutine. We spoke to Rakib one of the employees, he was warm, kind & welcoming as well. I will definitely be coming back with my wife but earlier next time

Really nice restaurant with a warm & welcoming atmosphere. The staff were very friendly & seated us promptly. We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary soup, which was delicious, as well as free bottles of water. The burger & steak poutine were both very good & well prepared. Overall, a great experience,would definitely recommend this place.
Great place & very friendly staff. Kids enjoyed the soup, popcorn chicken poutine, & Caesar salad. Smash burger & fries well made. This place is a gem.
Originaires de Bangladesh, les 3 serveurs & cuisiniers servent de la cuisine locale notamment de la Poutine.
Nous avons bien apprécié le potage offert avant le repas.
Cette délicate attention fait chaud au coeur surtout lorsqu'il fait un temps maussade en hier.
La nourriture est bonne & la quantité est plus que satisfaisante.
