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.

Great atmosphere. Cute little place.

But!! Don't waste your money.

Poutine tasted horrible. Barely any curds, no sauce (even after we asked for extra sauce when we ordered) -
Sangria pitchers are super watered down.
Service takes forever.

Place was filthy & over prived. I have had much better poutine many times. This was mediocre at best. Very, very disappointing!

We were looking for a place to sit & relax with a drink & some poutine after lots of walking. The man outside asked if we wanted to sit outside or up inside with a street view. We chose the inside street view. It was nice & cool which was perfect. The poutine was very good & a large portion. The drinks were excellent as well. Ismael took amazing care of us. He was the best! Don't hesitate to go here to relax with some good food & drink!

Poor service, had to wait forever to be seated. Then additional 20 mins get server. We got our food pretty quick & the poutine was mediocre, then had to wait some more to finally get our drinks after our food was served. Needless to say, will not be going here again.

I've walked in front of this place a million times & told myself tonight was the night, I was in the mood for a good poutine & with a name like Montreal Poutine, you can't go wrong, right?

It was alright...

Nothing to write home about. The gravy was your typical BBQ-style St-Hubert grocery store variety. Fries were OK. Cheese was squeaky, at least.

Patio & music were amazing, though.

Would go back for drinks.

Don't waste your money here!! You will get better poutine & smoked meat sandwich in Costco food court.

This was probably the best poutine I have had during my trip to Montreal. It had the perfect amount of gravy & cheese. We ordered one to share & ended up ordering a second because it was that good. I'm honestly surprised this place only has a 3.9-star rating; it definitely deserves higher!
