Beyond the iconic smoked meat, the kitchen prepares flame-grilled burgers made from premium beef patties topped with classic fixings. The dining space features an unpretentious, casual environment designed for high-volume service and efficient delivery of hearty comfort food. Patrons encounter a straightforward approach to American-style barbecue traditions with a focus on generous portions and consistent flavor profiles. Every plate highlights a commitment to traditional preparation methods that prioritize texture and seasoning over modern culinary complexity. This establishment functions as a dedicated destination for those seeking a robust, no-frills encounter with high-quality smoked proteins and savory, well-executed grilled staples.

Review Summary

Smoke Meat Pete is widely considered a staple destination for authentic Montreal style smoked meat, offering a unique, rustic atmosphere frequently complemented by live blues music. While many patrons praise the tender, flavorful meat, generous portions, and high quality of the sides like fries and coleslaw, the overall experience can be polarized by factors such as fluctuating prices, occasional inconsistencies in meat texture, and a loud environment that may not suit everyone. The ordering process, which involves paying at the counter before being served, is sometimes described as confusing for first time visitors, yet the staff is generally noted for being friendly and efficient. Despite some debates regarding value and volume, the restaurant remains a beloved landmark for those traveling through the area who appreciate a lively, character filled dining experience.

This place is an institution, a must try if you're in the area. One of the best smoked meat restaurants in town. Don't leave without trying their smoked meat spaghetti sauce! They also have live music here on most nights.

A place I wanted to try because often I kept passing by that restaurant lots of cars parked so I said one day I'll try it , I wanted to see what all the hype was so I decided to go & try it. Big mistake. Way overpriced for the quality I mean I paid Close to $30 for a handful of french fries a small tiny sandwich & a small drink & the taste wasn't that great big deception I do not recommend this place 🙄, THE BELLE PROVINCE SMOKE MEAT SANDWICHES & FRENCH FRIES ARE A THOUSAND TIMES BETTER & WAY MORE AFFORDABLE

After a long drive to Kingston, ON & back, my son & I decided to stop & try Smoke Meat Pete for the first time. We were lucky to find parking in front of the restaurant as I am 68 years old & have 2 bad knees, & a gentlemen outside was nice enough to direct us to the spot. We proceeded to go into the restaurant & while we were waiting in line, a rude elderly lady holding a Starbucks cup yelled loud enough for the entire restaurant to hear'can the blue BMW please move, you're blocking the front door'? So I went out with my son to see which door we were'blocking' but we were 6 feet away from the side of the door. We went back in & informed the lady that we were not blocking anything, & she doubled down. We asked why there is no'no parking' or'reserved' sign saying parking is not permitted there, & she said the establishment is a family-owned business. What does that have to do with anything? It must have been her spot ha ha! She said there are lots of handicapped customers, which I completely understand as I have very bad knees but the handicapped ramp was even further away on the other side of a railing & leading to the another door, completely unobstructed. She told us to park in the parking lot across the street for a different establishment. Again this must have been her spot & ahe wanted it back lol...
If she asked nicely, I would have moved to a different spot just to be nice, but we left the rude lady & we will NEVER be back as a potential new customers...

J'ai découvert ce viande fumé restaurant dans les commentaires d'un billet de voyage sur une ville étrangère, alors nous nous sommes arrêtés ici sur le chemin du retour après la cueillette des fraises. L'ambiance du restaurant est très originale. La poutine au viand
fumé & les spaghettis sont excellents, mais les ailes de poulet m'ont laissé indifférent. On a offert des crème glacée gratuites aux enfants, tout le monde était ravi.
