I only tried it once, I got a « sous-marin smoked beef sandwich »
I got one thing to say… waste of money
They fill the sandwich with mushrooms & peppers with small pieces of meat
Very disappointed…
First time in Montreal. We have made it a point to try poutines daily. This place is my favorite so far! (We have been to 2 others). The Montreal Smoked Meat poutine was delicious, & I will definitely have another before heading back to Ontario. Thank you for the great food, & service!
Rock'N Deli on St-Catherine in Montreal is a must try for smoked meat fans! Their halal smoked meat sandwich is incredibly juicy, tender, & melts in your mouth with perfect smokiness & seasoning a burst of flavors on soft bread. ? The Reuben is tasty too, with delicious meat, though they oddly lack customer knives. ? Unique smash burgers, like the Royale with added smoked meat, are enjoyable & add a fun twist. ? Poutine is surprisingly good, decked in gravy & extra meat. ? Staff are super friendly & the vibe is lively with good tunes, but fries are just meh & prices can feel high ($25-40 for a sandwich). ? If you're not French-speaking, minor communication hiccups might occur. Overall, great spot for halal eats in downtown - try the signature sauce! 4/5 stars.
A must go for smoked meat lovers, very clean ,quiet place, food is fresh none of that reheated stuff.
new mangement really made a difference.
For people who only eat halal this is the spot. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
First meal in montreal & it was fantastic!! Poutine & montreal smoked meat, couldn't get any better then that! The gentlemen running the show were very nice & the service was great!
We ordered the smoked meat sandwiches & the club smoked meat trio. The club has way less meat than the regular sandwich. I replaced the potato with sweet potato fries, definitely worth it.
Overall good experience, though it doesn't quite stand out compared to the best smoked meat spots. So definitely room for improvement.
En cherchant des spots à smoked meat a Montréal, nous avons vu ce restaurant sur la liste des endroits à essayer.
Le service est parfait & l'ambiance est conviviale. Cependant, nous avons étés un peu déçu par la viande qui est la spécialité du lieu. Elle n'avait pas grand goût & la texture n'était pas très agréable.
Au contraire, les onions rings, les frites normales & de patate douces sont très bonnes !
Rock N Deli is a great spot in Montreal if you're craving halal smoked meat! The halal smoked meat sandwich hit the spot - super flavorful & tender - & the chicken club was just as good, fresh & filling. The portions are generous, & everything tastes fresh. It's awesome to have a halal option for this Montreal classic, definitely worth a visit!
