Review Summary

Le Roi Du Smoked Meat is described as a classic retro Montreal deli on St. Hubert, prized for its legendary smoked meat which many reviewers say is tender, flavorful, and served on fresh rye with generous portions. The place feels like a warm, family oriented diner with friendly service, though some notes mention cramped booths, decor in need of refresh, and occasional concerns about cleanliness. Reviews are a mix on value and portions, with the meat widely lauded but some diners finding sides or prices less satisfying and a few meals not hitting the mark. The menu has expanded beyond the traditional sandwich to include items like poutine, clubs, and even smoked meat pizza, yielding a range of experiences from excellent to mediocre. A few readers report inconsistent service or changes in the menu that affected their expectations, yet the overall impression remains that this is a nostalgic Montreal staple with a strong smoke meat identity. Many describe the atmosphere as charmingly old school, making it a go-to for lovers of classic Montreal deli flavors despite some ups and downs.

La viande fumée est vraiment excellente, belle expérience gustative. Les desserts industriels par contre☹?. En revanche les apéros sont hors de prix (avis français). & le fait que l'eau soit difficile à obtenir est désagréable, dommage de sortir de table en ayant soif…

This is Montréal smoke meat at its best. Wonderful service, a great sandwich, fries & a pickle. What more could anybody want?

Le smoked meat est délicieux. Les serveuses sont gentilles.

Seule chose, le mur de droite & les tableaux devraient être nettoyés. Il sont très sale ce qui n'est pas trop salubre.

Dans un style rétro, menu très varié, smoked meat, poutine , club sandwich, brochettes & autres. Pas besoin de faire la file comme dans un autres restaurant bien connu pour manger un smoked meat. Le service est correct, musique pas trop forte, on peu parlé sans crier.

Ce restaurant est celui ou ma mere m'amenait après son magasinage sur la plaza saint Hubert. C'était le debut des années 70. Ils ont gardé le meme decor. C'est tres propre. Le sandwich a la viande fumée est encore tres bon. Le service rapide & efficace.

It was a good place to get authentic Montreal Smoked Meat sandwiches. Portions were large enough to fill you & it was all reasonably priced. A smoked meat sandwich with fries & a drink costed us $22 each.

There was a street festival going on which gave us a more better experience.

I wanted to try out the smoke's meat sandwich in Montreal but tell the truth. The food itself is small portion & I paid two sandwiches including tax. It came to $35. I can get a full meal for $15 & I will be full just because it's a smoked meat sandwich doesn't mean that their potions should be disproportionate. Does service & the customer service is on point but the food itself truly was not hitting the mark. I'd rather go somewhere else where I can get my money go further.

Ordered an all dressed smoke meat pizza on a trip to Montreal, & was confused about the options on Uber Eats. I called & asked in french if the person I was speaking to spoke or understood english, so I knew if I needed to continue in broken middle school level french or could swap to english.

I was then told,'YES & OUR MEAT IS NOT HALAL!' & was then hung up on.

I was pretty shook? I just wanted to ask about the options for the pizza but didn't even get the chance to ask. I'm not even muslim so I'm confused as to why she yelled that in the first place? Was pretty unprofessional.

I called back anyway & asked in french about the differences in the smoke meat pizzas, & was provided the answers I needed, but I'm going to reconsider ordering from here in the future on my next visit.

The pizza's were good, but not worth the hassle.

Edited Review to Owner's Reply: I called on July 26th, at 5:40pm.
My ubereats order was a: 14' Grosse Pizza Spéciale Le Roi.

4 stars for their smoked meat. Sadly their poutine was disappointing (basically sauce & fries, two cheese curds)
