Amazing poutine! Crispy fries, rich gravy, & perfectly melted cheese. Highly recommend!View more
I had the popcorn chicken poutine & it was definitely one of the better poutines that you can get in Quebec. The taste of the gravy was very good, the fries were done properly, I just wish that there was more cheese.View more
Classic poutine with smoke meat. Standard hand-cut fries, good sauce & fresh cheese. Grilled cheese Burger was very good. Well worth the price. 8.7/10View more
Paulo & Suzanne - A Nostalgic Dive into Montreal's Diner Excellence
Tucked unassumingly across from Sacré-Coeur Hospital on Boulevard Gouin, Paulo & Suzanne is a beloved 4-star classic diner that embodies the soul of Montreal's no-frills, hearty dining culture. This cash-only gem is a time capsule of retro charm, serving up some of the city's most satisfying smash burgers & submarines-a must-visit for late-night cravings & comfort-food purists.
**Atmosphere:**
Stepping into Paulo & Suzanne feels like entering a quintessential mid-century diner. The no-nonsense decor-vinyl booths, checkered floors, & fluorescent lighting-pairs perfectly with the hum of conversation & the sizzle of the grill. It's a place where locals, night owls, & hospital staff mingle over steaming plates, creating a cozy, unpretentious vibe that's both nostalgic & refreshingly authentic.
**Service:**
Service here is brisk & no-flicker friendly, matching the diner's straightforward ethos. The staff, seasoned & efficient, keeps the pace lively without sacrificing warmth. They'll hand you a laminated menu, shout your order to the kitchen, & have your meal in front of you before you've finished people-watching. It's diner service at its finest-uncomplicated & reliable.
**Food & Drink:**
The menu is a love letter to greasy-spoon classics, but Paulo & Suzanne elevates simplicity to an art form. Their **smash burgers** are legendary-thin, crispy-edged patties piled high with melty cheese, fresh lettuce, & tangy sauce, all cradled by a butter-toasted bun. Each bite is a perfect balance of crunch & juiciness. The **submarines** are equally stellar, stuffed with quality cold cuts, crisp veggies, & a generous slather of house dressing on pillowy bread.
While the focus is squarely on comfort, the execution is precise. Portions are hearty, flavors are bold, & everything tastes like it's made with a dash of pride. Just remember: bring cash (no exceptions), & don't skip the hand-cut fries-golden, salty, & ideal for dunking in gravy or ketchup.
**Late-Night Appeal:**
Paulo & Suzanne truly shines after dark. Open late, especially on weekends, it becomes a haven for post-bar crowds, shift workers, & insomniacs craving a 2 a.m. burger fix. The energy is infectious, with laughter & clattering plates creating a soundtrack to your meal.
**The Verdict:**
Paulo & Suzanne isn't trying to reinvent the wheel-& that's why it works. This diner is a testament to the enduring appeal of well-executed classics, served with zero pretension & maximum flavor. Whether you're fueling up after a hospital visit, capping off a night out, or simply chasing the perfect burger, this spot delivers. Just come hungry, bring cash, & leave your foodie snobbery at the door.
**Final Rating:** 4/5 - A timeless Montreal institution where simplicity reigns supreme.View more
Avocado eggs toast with fries, yummy 😋 great service with smile 😁🤩View more
When we were in a mood for a completely indulgent meal, we went out of our way to this joint to grab a juicy greasy dripping, molten cheese smashed burger, fries & poutine. After this, we felt very satiated for a good while.View more
BEST hotdog of my life! I've had it before, the Quebecois, but today it just hit the bullseye! The cabbage had the right amount of tanginess, the toasted bun was perfectly buttery, pickles spot on & those fries on top...well, perfection! We ordered poutine as well. THIS place deserves an award & to be placed on a map for BEST traditional Quebecois fast food. I will be recommending it to anyone who travels here looking for a mega satisfying treat!View more
It is a cute greasy diner, haha. Homemade fries & burgers with authentic quebec taste. Must visit at least once! The poutine is mouth-watering & yummy! Regular poutine in photoView more
Greasy spoon doing things the way they should be. Grab a stool at the counter & stuff your face full of delicious fries & burgers.View more
Maybe a bad day.. Soggy fries & some weren't cooked all the way.View more
Had dinner with friends to celebrate a birthday, & because we decided to eat on the terrasse outside, we all ordered meals to go. While there is a small sitting area at the back with table service, every take-out order is taken at the counter, so every single customer has to line up in a very narrow corridor. The BBO poutine I ate was full of meat & was quite tasty, but the fries were unevenly cooked. Pricing is fair, but they only take cash.View more
Classic sat night spot Burgers fries poutine hits the spot.View more
This is a great spot for good ol' burgers & fries. The poutine is awesome. Good portions. The 3D burger is fantastic (grilled cheese, club sandwich & burger) Cash only.View more
Super poutine, de loin meilleure que plusieurs endroits du cartier! Bémol : service efficace, pas très chaleureux, mais correct. Toutefois... J'espère que l'employé qui m'a servi en était à sa première journée pcq il n'était pas en mesure de dire "numéro 5" en français... Je suppose que d'ici quelques jours il apprendra par coeur, au pire, le mot "numéro" & quelques chiffres, après on passera au "bonjour" , ""Merci"... Reminding you they are called "FRENCH fries"... Haha! C'est pas pcq on rit que c'est drôle.View more
Ordered Hamburger Steak. Very good. Fries a bit wet & missing the bread bun & butter. 4/5View more
Seriously overhyped. Fries were nice & crispy, almost too crispy, but cheese was cold & non squishy, & to finish off, sauce is very bland, & uneventful. Overall a 7.2/10 poutine for us. Oh also, cash only… annoyingView more
