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.
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.

The food was much better than typical fast food & was ready quickly. They were so kind & checked in to make sure we were enjoying everything. The portions were generous & great value for the price!!
Very warm welcome with a soup on a cold day, staff super friendly & nice
Soup was fresh & perfectly seasoned. Loved the soup
Smash burger was very well seasoned & really good. My preferred burger
Chicken burger was also very good. Extremely saucy
Fries are decent, not really seasoned so add some salt & pepper yourself.
This is a hidden gem. Best steak sub I ever ate.....loaded with juicy steak, delicious. Can't wait to try their double smash burger. Very reasonable prices.
Le Petit Wellington is a hidden gem. I had the double smash burger with fries-absolutely the best burger I've ever had! The meal started with a delicious soup, & the price was super reasonable. The place is cozy, the staff are kind, & the owner is very welcoming. I'll definitely be back!

The food is absolutely delicious! The staff is friendly, providing fast & excellent service. The prices are also very reasonable. The place is clean & has a relaxing atmosphere. Overall, it was a great experience!
We came in rushed because of an event close to this place. They quickly gave us a delicious soup before the main dish, which was one of the best & freshest burgers I've had in a while. The prices were pretty much unbeatable as well. Also liked the atmosphere when the whole family of the owner came in lol, would come back again for sure!
