Overall, reviews describe Paul Patates as a classic, comforting Quebec diner experience with poutine that many say is near perfect. Generous portions, good value, and quick, friendly service are repeatedly noted, along with a retro atmosphere, chrome stools, and even a house spruce beer that many consider a highlight. The poutine is praised for crispy fries, rich gravy, and fresh cheese curds, while the burgers and hot dogs are also well liked. Occasional comments mention slight cheese shortfalls, fries that can be less crispy, and hours that are sometimes limited, but the overall sentiment is that this spot delivers authentic, satisfying comfort food that many would return for.
If you're craving a good old-fashioned poutine just like in the good old days, Paul Patates is the place for you! The portions are generous, the value for money is excellent, & the service is pleasant. A classic that never disappoints. A must-try!
Si vous avez envie d'une bonne poutine traditionnelle comme dans le temps, Paul Patates est l'adresse qu'il vous faut ! Les portions sont généreuses, le rapport qualité-prix est excellent & le service est agréable. Un classique qui fait toujours plaisir. À essayer absolument !
Poutine presque parfaite. Franchement, tout ce qui manquait c'était légèrement plus de fromage (mais bon, c'est un peu l'éternel problème avec les bonnes poutines), sinon c'était vraiment super. La déco aussi est très cool, ce qu'il y a de mieux niveau'diner'.
Bref, je recommande à tous les curieux.
Wow que dire de la poutine elle est excellente les frites fraîches & croustillantes La sauce n'a pas trop le goût de BBQ malgré la couleur c'est une bonne sauce gravy & que dire du fromage frais. Le hot dog 🌭 etait aussi délicieux décor rétro & ils font même leurs propre bière d'épinette un grand coup de coeur ♥?
A classic corner casse croute, one of a dying breed. Excellent frites, good steamies, & a much more pleasant dining experience now that they changed staff to a new less drama breed of counter staff.
I'm giving this place five stars because it offers a great experience if you're seeking to get a couple of steamies & some fries just like the good old days.
The hot dogs & garnishing were very fresh, & taste it just like the typical Lester steamie. Unfortunately the fries were a bit disappointing. Not sure what oil they use but it had very little flavor, overly browned & soggy. They do not rank amongst the top fries if you're looking for the typical Quebec style.
This is diner food perfection! The double burger was phenomenal. The two beef patties were perfectly seared & incredibly juicy, served on a fresh, toasted bun.
Equally great were the fries-thick-cut & tasting truly homemade.
It's a classic, satisfying meal executed flawlessly.
