Great value for money. Very tasty & filling. We got 3 bowls all got different tastes. 4th one was the XL wings & fries; super delicious & the fries are great too. Also Halal. Service was fast too. Overall great spot.

Employees arguying in front of customers, saggy chicken wings with uneven sauve, unevenly cooked & uncooked fries. Other monteiros are way better.

Leaving this review from a place of love.

You guys destroyed literally the best poutine in town by switching to very mid potatoes vs actual fries.

Please go back to the old recipe. 20x better. Much love.

WRONG FOOD + HUMILIATED.
Ordered TO GO chicken piripiri without any spice sauce, no beans, no white sauce. Advised staff I have allergies & I can NOT eat the spicy sauce. I did tip my order, different then the big group that were there. My order came wrong, SUPER SPICY, it probably got mixed with the big group order. Untill that moment, I wasn't upset, mistakes can happen.

Returned to the store with my wrong order to have the cashier REFUSE the food exchange & mock me! Laughing with the cook staff in other language. I raised my voice & directing myself to the staff she (the cashier) was talking to & making fun of me, I said'this is unacceptable behavior. It is NOT like I want free food, I only want what I ordered: a food I could eat, not super spicy!! I have allergies! What is your problem?! Why are you in the back making fun of me in other language right on my face? I am literally right here!'
The men that was at the grill, the one I direct myself, told her to make me a new one. She was relutant, he pointed at the food counter & spoke other language, she then started making me a new one but she made sure to fill it with beans & put the white sauce & everything I told her previously I did not ordered/wanted.

It was my second time coming here. McDonald's staff have better behavior & customer service. The way the cashier behaved I am sure she is friend/family of the owner.

Poutine rating: 9.5/10
One of the best poutine in Montreal. I can never look at poutine the same again, Monteiro raised the bar. The mix of sauces are crazy good, fries are nice, the cheese is chonky & the chicken mmmm chickn.., & the cilantro yooooo let's go.
Spicy or medium adds a lot, mild & bbq are a bit lacking in comparison but still a fantastic poutine.

Ordered the chicken bowl with salad, rice, & fries. Calling it'bland' would be generous. The rice & fries had absolutely no flavor, & the chicken was so lightly seasoned it felt like a conceptual idea of seasoning rather than actual food.

So I tried to save it by seasoning it myself & asked for salt & pepper. I was told they don't have any. A restaurant that serves food but doesn't have salt or pepper somehow explains everything perfectly. If even the customers aren't allowed to season the food, I guess flavor just isn't part of the concept here.

Wild experience. Fully deserves the one star. Would not recommend unless you're actively trying to avoid taste.

Not very clean, French fries not cooked enough. Chicken was cold.
Go to poulet rouge across the street instead. I must add to be fair that they have a great potential if they master the cooking of their stuff.
