The food is good although the bread & dressing was not my taste. The service was acceptable & the ambiance could be better for sure.

I wasn't feeling well on my way to Reuben's & almost turned back, but I'm glad I didn't. When I arrived, I told the server I was taking out, & he still kindly offered me water - a small gesture that already showed how thoughtful the staff are. I ordered their famous smoked meat sandwich (which lived up to the hype!) but had to step away for a while because I felt really sick.

When I came back, the owner noticed & asked if I was okay. I told him I wasn't feeling well, & he immediately offered me a bottle of Perrier to help me hydrate - & wouldn't even let me pay for it. That simple act of kindness genuinely made my day & helped me feel better.

It's rare to find that kind of care & humanity in a busy restaurant. Beyond the great food, Reuben's has truly wonderful people. Highly recommend.

Meilleur salade César de ma vie ! Je mange là depuis enfant & ma mère mangait là enfant aussi & c'est devenu notre incontournable lorsqu'on vient à Montreal. Cheesecake = un must !

The meat lacks flavour. It's stacked in a one sided fashion. So the half sandwiches have the shape of triangles in cross section. The fries were cooked in over hot oil & had that chemical burnt type flavour. As a two day visitor to Montreal I feel as if I've squandered an opportunity. I'm really looking forward to Schwartz's tomorrow for lunch.

Food was a good portion for the price paid but not very good, the service was absolutely amazing & the restaurant had this speakeasy vibe which was quite cool but the machines made an annoying noise & a man behind the bar was speaking loudly into a speaker to the kitchen but we could hear it

Very cool restaurant, felt almost like I was transported to a past decade. Love the vibe & decor. Extremely well maintained establishment. However the food itself felt mediocre. Portion size of the kaiser sandwich was very disappointing & the meats were just okay. There was a subtle lack of attention to detail like placing the pickle on a hot plate just made for a warm pickle which isn't very appetizing. Poutine was probably my favourite part of the meal. Also one awkward moment of the meal transpired where the server dropped a mayo pack on the floor but swiftly picked it up & tried to conceal her putting it back on the plate & served it to me right after. Extremely odd & somewhat disrespectful moment which I assume was a momentary lapse of judgement. Overall my expectations for the food itself was not lived up to, but it's a cool restaurant.

This is a cute little upscale Deli. The staff are friendly, the place gives oldstyle pub vibes on a classy level.

The prices are a bit on the high end, & you can expect to pay around 30 bucks on the lower end. I went for the lunch menu sandwich combo, & it came with a 6oz sandwich, fries, coleslaw, & a pint all for 30 dollars. The fries came crispy & stayed crispy, & 6oz is misleading, i could not finish the second half the portion was so substantial.

Beautiful selection of pastas & steaks aswell.

10/10 recommend. I will be back next time i fly in for business. Would be a great location for stakeholder engagement.

Shoutout to Wayne for bringing the good vibes & humor. Did i mention the frosted pint glasses?

Perfect lunch.
