L'incontournable Schwartz vous sert la meilleure viande fumée depuis 1928, sa recette est originale et ses épices uniques. Imaginez, vous passez la porte et vous vous retrouvez 75 ans en arrière sur l'historique --Main-- de Montréal. Un vrai monument à Montréal qui a reçu des célébritiés et des visiteurs de tous les coins de la planète.
Schwartz's Deli est largement décrite comme une institution montréalaise, célèbre pour sa viande fumée emblématique, une ambiance de deli old school et des sandwiches généreux que beaucoup décrivent comme fondants en bouche; malgré les longues files, le service est généralement rapide et efficace et la file avance souvent rapidement, avec un comptoir à emporter juste à côté pour les pressés. Les avis saluent la tendreté et l'assaisonnement marqué de la viande, le pain de seigle traditionnel, ainsi que les accompagnements comme les cornichons, les frites et la poutine, tandis que certains notent une graisse variable de la viande ou des portions inégales et parfois un service peu constant; dans l'ensemble, l'endroit demeure un passage obligé pour les amateurs de viande et un morceau mémorable de l'histoire de Montréal, même si certains estiment que le prix et l'affluence peuvent être des inconvénients.
Two weeks ago during our visit to Montreal, we went to this restaurant. After dinner, we left a tip, but the lady at the cashier seemed unhappy with the amount. She told us that for bills over $100, a tip higher than 15% was mandatory, & she rudely waved the tip money in front of us. We found this behavior very disrespectful & uncomfortable. Unfortunately, after this experience, we would not consider coming back again.
Visited Schwartz Deli on a Sunday afternoon at 3 PM. There were 3 of us & we waited for 30 minutes outside with only a few groups ahead. The place was crowded. We were seated at a shared table with 6 seats.
We ordered two smoked meat sandwiches & one poutine. The smoked meat was tender, the bread was thin & dry, & portions were small. The poutine was disappointing. Fries were overcooked & tasted burnt.
The bill came to about $50 (tax included, before tip), which felt overpriced for the quality & small portion size. Service was mediocre & rushed. The restaurant seemed more focused on turnover than experience.
While Schwartz Deli has a long-standing reputation & history, in my opinion, it was underwhelming & didn't live up to the hype. There are many other great restaurants worth exploring. This was a one-time visit, & unfortunately, not somewhere I'd return to.
Muhte?em ötesi bir lezzet. Mutlaka gelinöeaimgerekwn bir uwe. Porsiyonlar büyük. 4 ki?i bir sandwich ve combo menü ile doyabilirsiniz. Çal??anlar çok samimi. Fiyatlar uygun.
After an 8-hour flight, I was desperate for comfort food. Having only seen poutine in YouTube videos, I felt lucky to stumble upon this place-full of authenticity & history.
The staff were very welcoming, & as a solo diner I quickly got a seat at the counter. I ordered the Schwartz poutine, which arrived almost instantly & completely delivered. The combination of cheese, fries, gravy, & smoked meat came together in rich, satisfying bites. My only complaint is that I wished the portion were twice the size.
Prices are slightly on the higher side, but considering the portion & sheer indulgence, it's easy to justify. Definitely worth it.
Must go when in Montréal.
Fast service: order, eat, pay & leave.
Always crowded.
But that's part of the experience when dine in at Schwartz's.
Our waiter Tino, amazing & friendly.

I made the trip in & this review is just based on take out as i just wanted to try the famous sandwich & fries. For 30 dollars it isnt worth it. The sandwich is the size of a regular hamburger from McDs & the fries were under cooked. I have a feeling the eat in restaurant has the atmosphere going for it but bring your wallet as it is rather expensive. Jerry's on the north side of the island is better value & atmosphere

Visited Mar 6'26 for lunch after our sight seeing from Basilica Montreal. Ordered Sand Viande Fumee, Schwartz's poutine & the pickles (cornichon). Love all of them!!!! Even I packed one more Viande Fumee for our flight to Rome. Be sure to arrive before lunch or you find yourself waiting for table.
