Reviews were good so we tried it out. We ordered takeout, two poutines & a burger. Burger was very good but poutine was a letdown. We ordered a large & the box was stuffed 97% with fries with only a bit of cheese sprinkled on top, & it was dry because there was not enough gravy. The small poutine we ordered was decent & proportions of cheese/fries/gravy were normal. Probably wouldn't go back.

We came here on Friday December 20th in the early evening & ordered to go. The place was empty - we initially wanted to order online but noticed the menu was different, less selection, so came in person. We tried one of their smashburgers & a poutine which featured cheese curds, as well as cheddar cheese, green onions & sour cream. The food was delicious but my only complaint is the very small portion size & high price. The burger by itself is over $10 & is super thin - I understand the concept of smash burgers but was surprised it did not come with fries or a drink for that price. The poutine I chose was a "regular" size but felt like a small. The food is also packaged in these cardboard take out boxes which are not lined or waxed so unfortunately most of the sauce absorbs through the paper. There are lots of different container options such as alimunium or waxed cardboard that can be used which would be a more ideal choice especially for poutine. This is just bad planning.

Restaurant de cartier. Poutine excellente, mais je dois avouer être plus fan de leur burgers! Un vrai délice!!!!!!! De la vrai viande, fraîche! Un burger de franchisé arrive pas a la cheville de leur burgers!!! Après un bon moment à pas y être été, pas déçu de la nourriture. Toujours aussi bon. Mais le jeune homme qui a pris ma commande, n'avait pas le sourire au lèvres. Ma jamais offert la mayo avec mes frites. & le haut parleur sur le comptoir de commande, pas une mauvaise idée, mais le son beaucoup trop fort. Je m'entendais pas penser.
