Montreal Poutine shows up in reviews as a strong, comfort-focused destination in Old Montreal, offering huge portions of poutine in a warm, rustic setting with a courtyard vibe and stone walls that many describe as charming. The menu items such as smoked meat poutine and fried chicken poutine are consistently praised for rich gravy, squeaky cheese curds, and fries that stay crisp; portions are often ample enough to share and are considered good value for the price. The atmosphere and service receive frequent compliments, with friendly, attentive staff and a lively ambiance noted, though some visits mention slower service, busy crowds, or occasional missteps like a spill or delays. A recurring practical note is that tap water is not provided and bottled water is the default option, which some guests find disappointing on top of higher prices. Despite occasional drawbacks, most reviews emphasize a positive experience, with many saying the experience is memorable and that Montreal Poutine remains a go-to spot for authentic Quebec comfort food in a historic, courtyard setting.
Beautiful place to have your first poutine experience. Not many gluten-free options, but our waitress was beyond kind & suggested their fried onion poutine without gravy, & we were incredibly satisfied! Creative, caring, & delicious. Oh, & amazing locally brewed beer! Will return!
In Montreal with my family & wanted to try poutine. So naturally decided to go to a place that has poutine in its name. Dont expect surf & turf here. Menu has about 10 items as it should & they all excellent. We all ordered various versions of poutine & a hamburger. Tasted great. Place was busy for lunch. Service was quick & pleasant. While as a healthcare provider i dont recommend making this dish your daily menu - worth a try. Thank you
The place was really cool & my poutine was pretty good. My issue was with the service. The other servers were kind & very accomodating. Unfortunately the server we were given was rude the entire time & made one person at our table cry with how disrespectfully she spoke. Also, the sandwich portion size is tiny for the price & they charged 4 dollars for water.
Beatifull restaurant above the city streets the inside is gorgeous but the star of the show if the food & service. Dennes our server was a pleasure to meet helped us within seconds to the point we didn't need to ask for service he would be there. The poutines were AMAZING & the plating of them was just artfull 100% will be returning & THANK YOU Dennes my whole family had a wonderfull night thanks to you :)
The service was wonderful, Dennis was genuinely kind & did his best to communicate with us despite the language barrier, he & the chef did a brilliant job & the Poutine here was absolutely brilliant. The place has a very warm atmosphere, the music was wonderful, the lighting etc. Everything was up to par. I'll definitely be coming here again!

Mon amie voulait absolument me faire découvrir la fameuse Poutine, nous avons donc mangé une poutine là-bas, bon je n'étais pas emballé par l'idée du plat de base, j'ai essayé quand même, je doit dire que la serveuse m'à proposé de me mettre la viande à part au cas où je n'apprecierai pas, quel belle idée, laviande est exceptionnelle, malheureusement je n'apprécie vraiment pas la poutine, mon amie quant à elle à mangée sa poutine au complet & ensuite la mienne, je doit dire que les portions sont vraiment énorme, donc autant vous dire que c'est qu'elle à vraiment apprécié la poutine, quant à moi, la serveuse m'à gentiment proposé de prendre un autre plat, la cuisine était en train de fermer donc je n'ai pas fait le difficile j'ai prit le plat qui arrangerais le plus les cuisiniers, rien d'exceptionnel ce qui est normal en fin de service, mais le cadre est sympas, le personnel est génial & bon bah la poutine est excellente apparemment, je ne peux pas être objectif là-dessus, je vous recommande de vous faire un avis par vous même, j'ai apprécié mon moment en tout les cas !
The food here was so good especially the poutine, it was really busy when we went so it took a while from getting seated to getting our food to even paying. I can't wait to go back to Montreal just to get a poutine from here again :)
Enjoyed a classic poutine in the evening - the fries & cheese were delightful. The side aisle tables offered pleasant outdoor views adorned with hanging money plants. The ambient lighting added to the overall experience.
We came from Toronto to try their authentic poutine but were really disappointed. Cheese was not heated, was way too salty & the poutine was dry. I wouldn't have been able to eat the ketchup. Save your money & go to McDonald.
