Paulo et Suzanne is a well-established Montreal diner known for its classic comfort food, particularly its generous poutine portions, variety of burgers, and all-day breakfast options. Many patrons describe the atmosphere as cozy and nostalgic, often highlighting the consistent quality of the ingredients and the friendly, welcoming service. While the restaurant has a loyal following that appreciates its long hours and authentic charm, common points of feedback include the inconvenience of a cash-only payment policy, the small seating capacity, and occasional variability in consistency regarding portion sizes or wait times.
Been ordering here both in person & on uber eats for a long time. In the last while, I've been disappointed every time I order. First of all, very stingy with the ingredients. Every time I order a poutine, there is barely any cheese. I often go out of my way to PAY for extra cheese, & even then they hardly put anything. When paying 26$ for a poutine with extra cheese, I expect a lot of cheese. Potatoes & gravy are worth pennies, so if this place wants to cut corners by barely putting any cheese, they should at least lower the prices. In the last 5 orders I've placed, the bacon was forgotten in my burgers 3 times. This upset me every time. The last thing I want to mention is drinks & ubers. Why put cold drinks in the bag right on top of hot food? Every time I order, the cold drink is directly on top on the hot food, so by the time it's delivered to my door, the water bottle either makes my food get cold or becomes hot because of the food. I can't comprehend why they do this, what I do know is that it's ruined half of my orders. I'm not gonna act like I've never had good food here, there's a reason I re-order so frequently. I really do think there's a couple of things that need to be done better to ensure nothing but positive experiences for the customers. Hopefully this helps
J'y suis allé pour la première fois, la poutine est excellente.
Par contre, la façon de commander & de payer est la raison pourquoi je laisse 3 étoiles, je suis arrivé sur place & j'ai dû commander en ligne parce qu'ils ne prennent pas crédit ou débit. Rendu en 2026, le système devrait être meilleur.
Maintenant que je sais comment ça fonctionne, j'y retournerais parce qu'il y a beaucoup de choix sur le menu.
Les poutines sont terrrribles (délicieuses) je recommande!Excellent service!! À 3h00 du matin, on a commandé 8 grosses poutines de plusieurs sortes différentes, aucune erreur dans la commande & le personnel était souriant. L'endroit est très petit je vous suggère de prendre pour takeout. Petit stationnement à l'arrière (peu de place) parking sur la rue en général. La seule raison que je n'accorde pas 5☆ c'est parce que c'est seulement argent comptant... mais il y a une'ATM' sur place.

Best poutine in the greater montréal ever. anyone saying otherwise has burnt taste buds or has not tasted their wonders yet. The service 11/10. I asked for extra onion rings on my poutine & they didn't just gimme some extra, they added a bag with extra over the extra. I don't usually leave reviews, but this place deserves its 5 stars
I'm a longtime customer & am incredibly frustrated. The hours are listed as 24 hours on Sundays (& on the phone as well) but all delivery apps were shut off by 1 AM. When I called, I was told 1:30, which wasn't accurate. Misleading hours & poor communication.
