This place screams nostalgia. The Montreal smoked meat was fantastic. We got the large plate & it had a great variety of lean & fatty.
My only critique is that the $3 sharing fee should not apply to the large plate as it's too much food for 1 person.View more

I was going to just grab a sandwich to go instead of dining in in the OG diner, but I'm so glad that I waited! I made a new friend at the counter & had a wonderful conversation with them. The service was also amazing & I loved the staff's banter!
The smoked meat sandwich is obviously amazing - considering the big pile of smoked meat sandwiched between the rye, the saltiness of the smoked meat was beautifully adjusted & wasn't overpowering the umami of the meat itself. Would come again in August if I had the time!!View more

Honestly, the place is pretty overrated. $15 for a smoked meat sandwich is kind of overpriced since the quality doesn't really seem exceptional. The service is just okay, nobody smiles or says hi. Overall just an okay placeView more

The meat is absolutely great. But I wonder what's with Montreal's obsession with oily blackened french fries? Doesn't everybody understand that 1) The best fries are the golden yellow colored fries & 2) the reason they are soaked black with oil is because the oil is overused & fries taste worse because of that?View more

Quality of the smoked meat sandwich has certainly fallen from what I remember. They only seems to give the lean & dry pieces for the sandwich. It's not juicy at all but chewy & lacks flavor. The bread is also very basic. Yes its still an iconic place but don't get the sandwich...the plates are better because you can choose to get juicier better quality pieces.View more

Lovely food, great flavor you can choose the smoked meat to be lean which tends to be dry, medium fat or full fat. The flavor of the full fat sandwich is juicy. Very flavorful. The atmosphere is buzzing, you can sit at the bar or the tables which seat 6 at a time. There are about 10 tables. The place was packed & the service was speedy.View more

Like an old time N.Y. deli, Schwartz's did not disappoint. The smoked beef sandwich is large enough to share.View more
