Best place for a smoked meat sandwich anywhere in the world (in my opinion). So delicious & juicy, the smoked meat not overly salty as some smoked meat can be.

Unfortunately this was not a great experience:(. The service was fine but the brunch was not great. The beef bacon was so salty it was almost inedible…we ordered two standard breakfasts (fried eggs, bacon, home fries) swapped out toast for bagels & had coffee (refills aren't free after 11 am?). The bill came out to over $80, for breakfast (2 people).

I had the smoked meat omelette with knish & both tasted fantastic. Even though the place was packed, the service was excellent-my coffee cup was never empty! My wife ordered the smoked turkey sandwich with potato latkes; she absolutely loved the sandwich & the latkes were perfectly crispy & excellent.

The presentation is simple & no-frills but the portions are generous. Don't go there expecting a trendy, modern brunch cafe. This is a classic neighbourhood deli with a great retro diner vibe. I highly recommend the Snowdon Deli!

C'était génial. Un immanquable à Montréal. La vainde fumée est la spécialité du lieu, & ils s'en chargent de la faire briller. Le service est aussi excellent & tout le monde était très gentil. Je suis sûr que je reviendrais.
