About

Montreal Poutine delivers an authentic interpretation of Quebec culinary traditions through a focused menu centered on fresh ingredients. Hand-cut potatoes undergo precise frying to achieve an ideal golden texture, providing a structural base for thick, savory gravy. The inclusion of squeaky, high-quality cheese curds ensures the essential pull and richness expected by local enthusiasts. Smoked meat offerings feature slow-cured beef brisket sliced thin to preserve tenderness and seasoning intensity. This establishment prioritizes the classic composition of these staple dishes, emphasizing proper ratios of potato to sauce and cheese. Patrons encounter a straightforward environment where the engineering of the poutine remains the primary technical objective. Every preparation adheres to established regional standards, prioritizing ingredient integrity over unnecessary culinary embellishment or complex plating techniques throughout the diverse selection of menu variants.

Review Summary

Montreal Poutine offers a memorable dining experience in a historic setting, featuring generous portions of poutine that many visitors consider among the best they have tasted in the city. The restaurant boasts a cozy, atmospheric interior and a charming terrace that enhances the overall vibe for those exploring Old Montreal. While many guests praise the friendly and accommodating staff, particularly when dealing with large groups, others have noted inconsistent service speeds and a policy requiring the purchase of bottled water instead of offering tap water. Although opinions on price and specific dish quality vary, the restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking a quintessential, comfort-focused Montreal food experience in a unique, centuries-old building.

0/5 stars. Absolutely do not waste your time or money here.
We ordered two poutines & they completely forgot the second one. We had to bug the staff multiple times just to get our drinks & the rest of our food.
When the poutine finally showed up, it was a total disaster. There was barely any gravy. Just a pool of watery liquid at the bottom of the bowl (Italian poutine). The cheese curds felt like they were pulled straight out of the fridge, totally cold & un-melted.
If you're in the Old Port & craving a good poutine, skip this tourist trap. Walk a little farther out of the area for the real deal, you'll thank yourself later. Don't let the name fool you, there's nothing authentic about this place.

I was there with 3 friends after a long drive from Ajax so we were hungry.

The server took our drink order & it never arrived. They were nice & moved us to a larger table when the 4th member of our party arrived.

We ordered drinks again (they charge for water as only bottled available) & poutine. The poutine was delicious.

We waited a long time for our bills. It was busy but they seemed to have lots of servers around so not sure why there was such a delay.

Terrible. The absolute worst gravy (if you want to call that gravy) ever. I couldn't even get through more than 3 bites. It took us a while to get the terrible taste out of our mouths too.
If you want real poutine, do not come here.
