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.

I ordered a chicken noodle & the waitress assured me it was good. The broth was good but the noodles were like little pieces of wet kleenex. Very overcooked! The vegetable salad I ordered was excellent. Even though I returned the soup the waitress made me pay for it. So I will not order soup again. Please, please do something with the bathroom, it appalling. The bathroom is in the basement. The smell of javex is very strong, & the bathroom looks awful. it's cold & looks like a dungeon. C I

Honestly, I can't say anything about the food as I didn't eat here. We sat down, I took a look at the menu & I just couldn't eat there. It was very expensive, the place was dingy & although the staff was very pleasant I just couldn't eat there. I can't tell you why. It was also my birthday & I just didn't feel like that place was going to do the occasion justice. Maybe the food is great...I honestly can't say.

A Montreal institution, the quality of their smoked meat has never wavered. Although prices have gone up across the board, they're still relatively affordable here. It remains one of my favourite eateries in the city.

Personnel sympa & efficace, snack-bar typiquement Nord-américain.

Ça vaut le détour pour du smoked meat & des mets grecs. Les prix sont raisonnables.
