Les avis décrivent Smoke Meat Pete comme une institution légendaire à Montréal, avec des portions généreuses de viande fumée tendre et savoureuse, des frites et une poutine remarquables, et une ambiance blues dynamique portée par des groupes live qui attirent locaux et visiteurs. L'accueil est souvent salué pour sa gentillesse et son service efficace, mais plusieurs commentaires signalent une hausse des prix et, dans certains cas, des portions plus petites ou une qualité de viande inégale, en particulier pour les coupes maigres ou plus grasses. Le cadre peut être bondé et le système de commande au comptoir est fréquent, avec des plats à emporter très populaires; malgré tout, la valeur globale fait débat à mesure que les prix augmentent, tandis que beaucoup affirment que la viande, la fumaison et l'authenticité de l'endroit valent le détour, surtout lors des soirées avec musique live.
The smoked meat was great - it's a shame about the bread, though. For $26, one would hope for a better quality rye bread (or a pickle to accompany the sandwich 😅). Would've given 5 stars if it weren't for that 🤷🏻?♀? Poutine was good too - no complaints there. The service was friendly & the band was FANTASTIC (it made for a lively atmosphere!)
Very nice place! Always very nice staff! Clean for an old style resto. Great atmosphere, music, band, nice people. & the food, the most important, it's realy good 👍 😋. If i could remove half a star, it would be for the price. It is a bit more expensive that it should be in my opinion. I do go there sometimes & will go again, but i would go more often if i had more than 2 kidneys to sell. But it's always full, so...i recommended

Im rarely this impressed with service, with food, & ambiance. I thoroughly enjoyed the smoked meat & the band that was playing. Our waiter, Eric, I think, was extremely polite & despite his humble beginnings was fantastic!
I've been to this restaurant MANY times. We visited friends in Vaudreuil yesterday & stopped in at Smoke Meat Pete on the way home. It's a five or so minute drive from their home. We had our dog with us so we couldn't leave him alone in the car. We got a couple of meals to go & ate in the parking lot. His Highness may have gotten a bit of smoked meat as a treat. Great meal as usual but the sandwich was a bit sloppy. You couldn't help it because of the confines of the car & the to-go box. Fries had a bit of a sweet taste to them. Loved them. Smoked meat was piled high on the sandwich. Loved it. Whenever I'm in the area, I stop into this restaurant for my smoked meat fix. Ile Perrot is much easier to get to than trying to get to Moe's or Ben's or Schwartz on the Island by crossing the bridge on the 40. I've never been in the evening when they've had the live band playing blues but that's hopefully remedied soon. I will be back.
Smoke Meat Pete is hands down the best smoked meat in Québec. The sandwiches are packed, flavorful, & incredibly tender. Portions are generous & the quality is always top notch. They also have live bands on select days, which adds a great vibe to the experience. A must-visit for anyone who loves authentic Montréal-style smoked meat.
Toutes étaient parfait !!! L'ambiance avec un band de blues c'était vraiment malades !! Le steak parfait
J'y retourne sans hésiter, ca vaut le détour !
I'm from MTL & driving to Iles Perrot for Smoke meat is so worth it. You can't beat it. Nothing comes close. Absolutely the best! The meat is so juicy & flavorful. Plus if you're lucky you get to enjoy a great band while dining in.

An absolute delight!
Every time I am in the Montreal area, I try very hard to pay a visit to this place. It's probably close to 15 years since I was introduced to Smoke's, & it's one of, if not my favorite place for Smoke Meat.
The service is top-notch, portion, quality, & flavor excellent.
For myself, it's also very convenient when I am entering or leaving the Montreal area. Next to the Dairy Queen Ice Cream Parlor, It's practically on Highway 20, which is an alternative, more scenic route to take.
This time, I also tried the ribs. & they were an excellent choice as well.
Also, the atmosphere is great although I had take out, this place was popping, filled with excitement, both with a lively patrons & a very friendly staff. It's also equipped with a cover patio for the warmer climate, I'm guessing. The structure, furniture, & paraphernalia are filled with character & a certain quaint, cozy popping atmosphere.
Live band in the evening, night.
This is definitely a nice place to put on your hit list of places to eat.
BTW, great coleslaw 👍🏾👍🏾
& another recommendation: get the 1lb special to go (cold), this is to enjoy when you get back to Toronto.
It's about $35 with all the fixings.
So the atmosphere was great...cant image how it would be when the band was playing. Very casual..
Food was a little overpriced but so is everything today but it made up for in taste. Had a poutine & a smoked meat spaghetti. Fortunately the spaghetti was 2 for 1.
Best smoke meat ever!
Une viande excellente qui fond dans la bouche & des frites croustillantes, nous nous sommes régalés.
Il s'agit d'une place avec une vraie identité & une ambiance familiale.
L'endroit est quelque peu petit mais ça ne joue pas sur l'expérience. Live band un peu bruyant par contre mais très sympa quand même! Je recommande vivement.
Meilleur smoke meat dans l'ouest. Ambiance exclusive. On entre dans une autre époque. & que dire des bands de Blues. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée. Les portions sont très génereuses.

One of the best smoked meat spots. No reservations needed, however it's almost always full. Service is great, whether you speak French or English. Live band performances sometimes. I recommend the ribs, just get the entire rack, it's really good.
Excellent endroit pour du très bon smoked meat. Leur salade de chou a un goût spécial & différent des autres restos, un peu trop vinaigrée. Malheureusement, l'expérience sur place est quelque peu gâchée par l'espace un peu restreint & la musique forte lorsqu'il y a un band. Je préfère le smoked meat de Dunn's mais Pete est tout de même parmi les meilleurs.
The vibes was perfect!! The band was amazing, the food was faster than we could get a seat?! What more could you ask for 😆 definitely recommend going here & get the fries!! If you love potatoes you'll fall in love with them🥰
The food is great, been going here for years. I've always had to order for takeaway though because eating indoors is just too loud because of the bands playing in a small room.
