I can fully appreciate the stains & demands that the Covid 19 has had in keeping & maintaining your business with all of the Government regulations that you must now follow coupled with the need to increase your prices a little to try to recoup some of your losses, but to now be charged over $15.00 (tax in) for a regular smoke meat sandwich (which by far now exceeds other deli's) which is basically two small pieces of bread (cost ) & few slices of smoke meat (cost ), & also your smoked meat specials to now go to well over $19.00 (tax in) is way over the wall...As a result your once affordable place is no more, so myself & some of my friends who had been regular customers will now be taking our business elsewhere to more affordable Deli's, & rest assured there are plenty of them around with good old fashion Smoked Meat......Smoked Meat Pete is not the only game in town..it has lost its luster having priced itself out of a convenient market place for family & friends to attend...sadly reviewed by a former customer(s)

Un des meilleurs smoke-meat que j ai manger. J y retourne avec différents amies aux deux semaines & tous le trouves vraiment bon. Ambiance resto rustique ce qui fait son charme & employés super sympathiques. Un petit bémol en soirée le band joue fort alors je prévilègie l espace vitrée autour du resto pour pouvoir échanger.

I have gone to this establishment over the years & have been getting disappointed more & more. This time the service was as per usual bad, a little worse than usual. I expect it so it does not surprise me as much anymore. The thing that really disappointed me the most this time was the smoked meat, no one in our party cared for it. My 10 year old daughter was the most excited to go & was the most excited to leave. She ate half her sandwich & thought the other half was slimy & gross ( her words). Good thing there is a Dairy Queen right beside, we went there so I could make it up for our groups experience.
Overall the place used to have good food & bad service, but now it has still bad service & the food is not so great anymore. The bands seem to be good every time I have gone but a guys got to eat. If you have an opportunity to go else where take it.

I have been going there for years, since way before he became a big deal. I understand if you need to increase your prices, the price of beef has drastically increased whithin the last few years. But your quality & quantity has dropped. The jumbo used to be a real Jumbo sandwich & was worth the price difference compared to the regular. Now it seems like all you get is a better piece of bread with the same quantity of meat as the regular. It looks like you have figured out a way to stack the meat so that the sandwich looks big when looking at the front of it.

Your fries are really not what they used to be, last 3 times I have been they have either been soggy or borderline burnt. They used to have the best fries period!! Now they do not even always use the famous Manitoba red potatoes they used to brag about in newspapers. & seriously, other places around have decent fries too, yet a large french fry to go is about 3 times the price of anywhere else at your restaurant.

I am sorry pete but it looks like you are all about the hype now, organizing biker events, concentrating on the music etc etc... The food is going downhill :(

Always order the smoke meat when I go to Pete's & it's always very good. Yesterday, when I went, they had some juicy looking ribs on display at the counter. I ordered a half rack & was very surprised at what was brought to me. The ribs were not like the ones displayed. They were awful. The ribs were mushy & bland. Kinda like they were boil for a long period of time & the only flavour was the BBQ sauce slathered all over. Shame on me for ordering ribs at a Smoke Meat joint. The good thing out of this was, I was refunded my money after I complained.

I have never had such a disgusting fat filled smoked meat sandwich in my over 50 years of life. I picked it all out of the fat saturated rye bread & over 1/2 the content was fat. When the waitress showed the so called chef & owner all the fat picked out of the sandwich, he shrugged & walked away. Eexceptional customer service NOT!!!

I regularly brought friends & family to this Resto & the fries & meat are good when not all far. Off day I guess but the owners lousy attitude that got me. I will not go back. You'd think that with a restaurant full if 'vote for us' in the Resto Montreal contest that Pete would practice a bit more customer service rather than customer insult!

I have taken my wife & son to Petes for as long as I can remember. Not only does he have some of the best Smoked meat in Quebec, his fries are legendary. Pete is always behind the open pick up counter greeting people. (Wish he would add smoked meat to the steak platter already)

It can get loud with the live jazz & blues bands though so plan accordingly.

This is a MUST visit spot for foodies when you are in "comfort food" day.

I have eaten there twice in the last year & I have left with the same observations. I have never been to a restaurant where the fries included scraps of over fried potatoes. You have to stand in line to order your food & they accept cash only. For your convenience they have a ATM cash machine that charges you $2.00. The place is no bargain & the food sucks.
