*** THIS REVIEW IS INTENDED TO HELP THE RESTAURANT FOR THE FUTURE***
Here's the no bs review.
Two main concerns, price $ & quality.
The chicken tenders themselves are a bit rubbery & dry. They also lacked some seasoning.
The waffle fries were good but also lacked seasoning.
The sauce containers are just too small for the average person, so you need at least two containers, perhaps even three if you want to enjoy the chicken.
That brings me to price.
I wouldn't be very critical of the food if the price was reasonable. But 28$ for 3 tenders & fries doesn't justify the lacklustre taste & quality. Whatsoever.
The restaurant itself is trying to go for a diner vibe where the staff serves you the food. I don't personally understand it but it's not a concern for me either.
The staff were very nice & helpful.
This restaurant needs to audit the foods quality & consistency.
Got the large buffalo poutin, was enough to feed my partner & I. It was amazing poutin with tender spicy chicken. Very good service by zama :). Will def come back

Had a great experience at Madame Poulet. Very clean establishment. The chicken tenders were moist & crispy. Marie provide very friendly service. Highly recommend. I even bought take out to bring home for the kids after.
One of the best chicken tenders & mac & cheese I've had. Marie was a great host, she gave us the big room with the family table. The chicken was like homemade chicken not the basic super processed chicken tenders you get some places. A+
I couldn't believe everything on the menu is under 20$ even including trios! The Tomacluck was my favourite, so tender & juicy, & very well paired with the MP classique dipping! The spot is well lit & big, very nice vibes & nice staff, plenty of parking, highly recommend!

Excellente Food, Bright, & Clean, Open, late after skating near by . Will Be Back for sure. Chicken was tender private room with TV to watch baseball for the kids was awesome, the staff knows how to treat customers , more than two bathrooms.. but just in general the tender chicken was not heavy at all we took 20pcs & 1 fries bucket was more than enough.
First time here & we will come back here when there is a chance (not close to where we stay). The receptionist was very kind, friendly & helpful. We could feel her passion to serve customers good food. Though order process was a little slow, everything was great.
We enjoyed the food. The food was nicely made. The tenders were juicy yet perfectly fried. There were only 2-3 groups of people in the restaurant when we were there. The restaurant is huge, bright & clean. It was comfortable to sit down & enjoy our food.
Additional point, there were lots of free parking!
Absolutely delicious !!!! Was looking for a fried chicken resto that wasn't a mega fast food chain & honestly I was very pleasantly surprised. The chicken is so tender & juicy & breading is amazing. (I ordered delivery the next day as well because of how much I loved it. The decor of the place is modern & airy. They have a private room with glass walls for events. There's a terrace outside as well. The service was excellent! The waiter was very kind & professional. All in all, would recommend 100%!
I ordered from this restaurant off of Ubereats. The 3 piece chicken tender was really good. I paired it with their special sauce, & I enjoyed my meal a lot. However, the fries were very bad. I was disappointed to throw almost all of it out. Idk if the in-person experience with fries is similar, but I don't recommend getting'em.

Me & my friend wanted a late night snack & we stumbled across Madame Poulet on google & were super excited to try. We both got trios, I got the 3 piece chicken tender with poutine as my side & water as my drink & she got a classic burger with mac n cheese as her side with water as well. The mac n cheese was very good but my friend did not like the sauce in her burger. My poutine was very average & the tenders were not as crispy as I usually like. But the BBQ sauce was super good. The service was not the best. The woman taking our order wasn't the most helpful or nicest. We got our orders after 15 minutes of waiting, which was perfect. I would come back here just for the mac n cheese.
Fried Chicken Gem. Best fried chicken I had in many years. Tender, seasoned chicken & fresh cut waffle fries. Wow, we will be there again soon. You never had fried chicken like this. Loved it. Thanks Madam Poulet.
It's not bad but don't go there thinking that it's fried chicken (on bone). It's basically just chicken tenders or chicken wings. The popcorn chicken is a bit disappointing as I was expecting more meat in them, & it was really more along the lines of the left over breading from the chicken tenders. Like I said, it's not a bad chicken place, just not really what I was expecting. Oh & the nacho waffles were very disappointing. I know, I know on the menu it does just say it's waffle fries with nacho cheese but for the price you hardly get any of the cheese & it's really quite lazy to call them nachos fries lol. All in all it was an interesting experience but I think I'll still drive to Cornwall for Popeye's Chicken if I want good fried chicken
