Good tasty food for affordable price, manager/owner very kind & not only fixed my owner but added more to compensate for a small mistake. Great customer service. Thank you!
Ordered takeout, so can only comment on the food! Food - 5/5 - Chicken Bowl with 2 sauces - Rated this high for what it is & overall value... If you're looking for a healthy rice bowl, with flavour & some variety, this place is great. It's like the French version of Chipotle or Freshii... perfect when you're ordering in on a random night, don't want to spend money, but are looking for something healthy & tasty. I can't remember the sauces I ordered, but you get to pick what you want, so it's great!
We got the mini bowl each & it was A LOT, I don't know how people can eat the full size bowl. I got the BBQ chicken, guacamole, beans, corn & cucumber with rice. My partner got the garlic chicken, guacamole, tomatoes, onions & cucumber. Both bowls were super tasty & good price / value. This is a bit like fast food so service was solid & seating was basic but if you are looking for tasty, healthy, customizable food for good price I recommend Poulet Rouge on Ste Catherine.
The food at here is exceptional! Very tasty & well prepared & you can choose among many menu options. I've been eating here for a couple of years now. Love the service & the employees are always so friendly & take care to offer the best quality! They always have a smile on their face! Highly recommend this place!!
Can't believe it took me two years of living in MTL to come here. Many people I know spoke so highly of Poulet Rouge & now I see why... Fresh, filling, tasty, & reasonably priced! I ordered two one flavour rouge bowls for us & one is easily enough for two lunches. I also appreciate how our bowls were thoughtfully presented - they looked just as good as they tasted. Service-wise, my takeout order was processed & ready for me very quickly & served by friendly staff. Overall, Poulet Rouge is a great choice for a filling, relatively healthy, & budget-friendly meal!
