Since the day I tried their poutine, Poutineville has always been my favorite. I've tried many, many places but their Mexican Poutine still stands as my favorite poutine. I also recommend their fried cheese curds; I love them.

Tried this place with a friend as we are both poutine lovers. What a great discovery! The create your own poutine is awesome & allows for endless possibilities. We tried the Poutineville (a poutine with pulled beef & w wine sauce) & the Montrealais (a poutine with smoed meat, mushrooms, swiss cheese & sauce). Both were very delicious, especially, the smashed fries. The owner is super friendly, goes around every table to great his guests. The waitress was very pleasant, courteous & fast. She came back to the table several times to ensure our satisfaction. A definite must try. You will not be disappointed.

I live near by so, I'm a bit of a regular.

Poutineville is a cut above most Montreal poutine joints. It has a neat, innovative, build-your-own-poutine menu design, including surprisingly tasty topping choices like marinated aubergines (yum!) Their patates écrassées (crushed potatoes) are very nice & should be widely copied.

I think their poutine sauces are just a little bit too thick & starchy - I prefer something a little bit runnier. I also note they're not totally consistent - sometimes the pepper sauce is SUPER spicy, sometimes not very spicy at all - so I guess there was some experimentation with recipes going on in the kitchen.

For a place specialized in poutine, you'd expect nice big chunks of consistently fresh, squeaky cheese curds, which you don't always get.

Those are nits. It's a nice place for a casual late night poutine. (I'd avoid Friday & Saturday evenings, though, when the lines tend to spill out onto the sidewalk.)

Some people say the service tends to break down when the place is super full. Since I've never come when it's bursting, I've only ever had really nice, smiling, quick service.

Note that the Gay Village location is way more stylish than the original Petite Patrie store.
