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.
Mid restaurant in my opinion. The location was nice, we got seated next to the window so the view was great but the food was so so. The poutine was a bit too salty & the chicken seemed to be cooked for a bit too long.
In the heart of Vieux Montreal, this odd s as place to enjoy the famous local poutine.
Me?
I chose the Putin with smoked meat, & was terrific.
You?
Well, come, make your choice & share your experience.
No tap water? that's just cheapskate. I was used to come here with my friends & family who come visit me, but I'm not coming back again. The ambience & food is very low average. Luckily there's better options around.
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.

Hostess was not polite or welcoming when we came in … seated us at a table at the end of the secondary space & we were there waiting for service for about 10 minutes … we just got up & left …. Really disappointing because we came from Brazil & were looking forward for it
