Smoke Meat Pete est largement reconnu pour servir l'un des meilleurs smoked meat de la région de Montréal, de nombreux clients louant la viande tendre et savoureuse, les excellentes côtes levées et les frites fraîches. Le restaurant offre une atmosphère rustique et unique, souvent agrémentée de musique blues en direct, ce que beaucoup d'invités trouvent agréable et authentique. Bien que le service soit souvent décrit comme amical et efficace, le processus de commande, qui exige que les clients commandent au comptoir avant d'être servis à table, peut être déroutant pour les nouveaux venus. Malgré la grande qualité de la nourriture, les avis sont partagés concernant les prix, car de nombreux convives estiment que le coût est devenu assez élevé par rapport à la taille des portions. Certains clients ont également noté que le volume de la musique live peut rendre la conversation difficile, et que l'espace physique peut sembler encombré ou nécessiter un entretien. Néanmoins, pour beaucoup, la combinaison de plats traditionnels, de divertissements animés et d'un personnel accueillant en fait une institution incontournable pour les habitants comme pour les voyageurs.
Smoked Meat Pete is one of those places that feels timeless. We tried the classic smoked meat sandwich, the full rack of ribs, & the smoked meat poutine, & everything was excellent. The smoked meat is rich, tender, & full of flavour, easily among the best you can find in Montreal & the surrounding area. Honestly, if this place were located downtown, it would probably be considered the best smoked meat in Montreal.
The ribs were generous & well done, & the poutine with smoked meat was comforting & satisfying. Their coleslaw is also very good & pairs perfectly with the main dishes.
The atmosphere is friendly & welcoming, & you can really feel that this is a place people have been coming to for years. It's always busy, especially in the summer when lineups are common, which says a lot. They also have a varied menu with things like pasta & ice cream, making it great for families & groups.
If you want to experience truly great smoked meat at a place that's stood the test of time, Smoked Meat Pete is absolutely worth the trip.
First time here, from out of country. Recommended by a local friend, & I truly loved it. It was described as the best smoked meat, & it lived up to the expectation. Amazing smoked meat; good flavor, good texture, moist & tasty. Incredible ambience. Only down was I did not come on a night of live music which I saw the stage for. I really must come back to enjoy that, & especially get more smoked meat. I also enjoyed the poutine.
A must visit for leaving or entering Montreal. Great smoked meet & fries, great coleslaw & poutines. Great for take out. Can get busy do get there early.

Came across this gem while on the way to the east. We got poutine & smoked meat sandwiches & they did not disappoint. The smoked meat was tender & flavourful & packed. Absolutely enjoyed every bite & will definitely be back.
Smoked meat sandwich, coleslaw & pickles are definitely on point. I went in expecting a good smoked meat sandwich, what I got was straight out of the steamer Montreal Smoked Meat on good rye bread. No reheating done here. Coleslaw is delicious & fresh, & their pickles are probably from a jar, but they're definitely quality, not Bicks mass-produced junk.
The only gripe I have was the smoked meat poutine. Sauce was a bit sweet for my tastes & the cheese wasn't fresh, didn't have that bounce or squeek of fresh cheese curds.
At the end of the day, it's an excellent smoked meat restaurant in a low-traffic part of the west island. Definitely worth a visit.
We got there for 11 am, our poutine was ok. Warm fries & the gravy was the only warm part. The smoke meat was tender & delicious. The half chicken was hot, their special bbq sauce was excellent.
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.
