Picked this place because we wanted a poutine & they came up with several good reviews on their poutine. Walked up & found a tiny hole-in-the-wall place steps off of Sainte-Catherine that couldn't hold more than 10-12 people. Looks like they are family run.
Wife & I shared a double burger & poutine & I have to admit both were excellent. The portion was large enough that it was sufficient to feed both of us for lunch. Hot & fresh, I guarantee I'll come back next time I am in Montreal.
Was staying at a local hotel & saw great reviews for this place within walking distance so gave it a try. We got poutine & a steak burger. The employees were friendly, & the food was both cheap & delicious!
My son wanted me to give this ten stars out of five. The poutine was really great, & the burger I had was fantastic. The people running the place are delightful & kind, & if you like little family run places with great vibes & good food, then this is the place to go.
Neighborhood pillar!!! When I'm thirsting for poutine fries, this is my place! The owner cooks it quickly & he & his wife are friendly. Prices are great. I prob go there twice a week or so when I visit.
Great little hole on the wall we had our first Korean hotdogs & poutine very pleased
As others have stated, run by an older couple who seem nice. Very hole in the wall. I got there 15 minutes to closing & ordered a poutine. They took my order, but didn't offer any toppings (even after I'd asked) - just the standard cheese & sauce. It was affordable - I think 7CAD. Didn't see it on the menu. The poutine, however, was too salty. I avoided the sauce as much as possible & just ate the cheese & fries. I still could barely finish just that. People seem to love the burgers, but poutine is definitely not the move here.
Picks is operated by a lovely older couple out of a tiny, smokey storefront with three small tables inside. It epitomizes a hole-in-the-wall. The burger patty was cooked perfectly although was a tad overworked, it was elevated by a high quality roll & fresh, quality toppings. The poutine was generously topped with curds & a typical sauce, the fries were frozen but crisp, fluffy inside & seasoned well. I would definitely return in the future as I felt it was greater than the sum of it's parts.
Amazing!! I love their poutine & burgers. They are good quality, tasty & for a very good price. The owners are super nice & get the orders ready very fast
