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.

First time having routine, which I thought was very good & would order again. Waitress recommended next time order with pulled pork, which sounds great

Best poutine in Montreal & excellent service!! It is a little hidden, & on a second floor, but the ambiance feels almost like a speakeasy. A true hidden gem. I got poutine with smoke meats, & they let me drink my tea from home!!! Would recommend to anyone who is visiting Montreal & would like to try their coveted poutine.

Would give 10 stars if possible. A mix-up led to a last-minute need to accommodate our group of 21 people for a company lunch. Jenna accommodated us immediately, remembered every single order without writing it down, & the food was spectacular & portions generous. Indoor & outdoor (sidewalk in front plus more intimate courtyard) seating only adds to the experience. Highly recommend!

Wow! This is an impressive poutine, which is a bold statement for a city famous for its poutines. First & foremost, it was delicious!! The portion is huge, the service is great, the outdoor terrace is fantastic & the price is very reasonable for the giant portion of fries, cheese, gravy & smoked meat in the one I ordered. Big menu full of options for everyone, I highly recommend.

This is hands down the best fries I've ever had. We're talking about poutine - & this place takes it to another level. Perfectly crispy, freshly cut fries, rich & flavorful gravy, & fresh cheese that ties everything together - an absolute explosion of taste.
On top of that, the staff is incredibly friendly & welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better.
Honestly, one of the best places I've ever tried. Highly, highly recommend - you have to try it!

Pleasant retro vibe, great service & probably the most savoury poutine we ever had - surprising gem in a rather touristy area, we loved this place. Particularly recommend the smoked meat poutine.

My family & I had very uncomfortable expirence when we visited this resturant. The customer service that we received was unprofessional & racist. The moment we stepped inside the store crew is already telling us about the tip (which is fine to mention btw but the crew's tone made it sound like we're not gonna pay). Also, they were telling us to close the door already but all of us didnt even step inside yet. I wouldnt recommend this restaurant to everyone.
