Les avis présentent Snowdon Deli comme une institution montréalienne au charme old school, où la smoked meat tient la vedette et où le sandwich smoked meat, tendre et généreux, s'appuie sur d'autres classiques comme le brisket, le corned beef, la soupe au matzo ball et les latkes; l'ambiance conviviale et authentique, le service chaleureux et efficace, ainsi que la possibilité de prendre à emporter ou sur place, ressortent régulièrement comme des points forts, tout comme les cornichons et la salade qui accompagnent les plats; les portions et les prix font parfois débat, certains trouvant les portions plus modestes ou les tarifs élevés, mais la majorité s'accorde à dire que la nourriture est réconfortante et bien préparée; la soupe est souvent louée pour sa clarté et son goût, les knishes et les pickles restent des incontournables et le deli est recommandé comme une expérience culinaire montréalaine à ne pas manquer; au final Snowdon Deli offre une expérience traditionnelle et satisfaisante pour les amateurs de smoked meat, malgré quelques aléas de service en période de forte affluence et de variabilité dans les portions et les frites.
Great spot to get the Montreal smoked meat sandwich. The sandwich is solid & the combination of smoked meat, bread, & mustard is delicious. My brother & I also tried poutine from here which was pretty solid too. Service was excellent, our waitress was super friendly & did a great job with anything that was needed on our end, I would give six stars if I could for the service. The atmosphere was pretty nice, felt like a classic spot that you could tell was loved by the community. Definitely would recommend coming here.

I recently bought aged Karnatzel as I have done for many years & it seems obvious to me that Snowdon Deli has changed their supplier. It was alwsys my favorite treat & now it tastes like rubber with no depth of taste whatsoever.. sad as Karnatzel is such a staple in deli purchases
Smoked meat & Lox are very good lunch options. Always love picking up the party sandwiches. Usually fresh & tasty Jewish food with quick service. Also the eggplant 🍆 salad is amazing.
My family & I love coming here. The vibe is old school, & nostalgic. The bagel & lox is a absolutely delicious. The home potatoes & pancakes are excellent. We always enjoy our meals when we come regardless of what we order. The service is warm & friendly. Definitely one of our top breakfast places.

I thought I had the best sandwich in Montreal. But Snowdon was excellent. The vibe, the wonderful servers made this just a great experience. Look forward to visiting everytime I am in the city.
I'd say that this is the best smoked meat sandwich that I ever had. It was extremely moist, tender, & had a ton of flavor. Their pickles were also excellent & true fermented deli pickles. If you're from NY or NJ, you'd love this place.
Classic deli with a great smoked meat sandwich. Was smaller than I was expecting, but full of flavour. The meat was so tender. The matzo ball soup & potato salad were also great.
Today in Montreal .
I'd spent a considerable amount of time researching kosher delis in Montréal. I settled on Snowdons. Far enough off the track to lose the tourist lines & it had cred 🤷🏼?♂?.
Walked to the metro to find the system was locked out due to the strike . But the train wasn't. So we took the train to Lachine ? No busses. The deli was 2.9 km away . On foot. A pilgrimage with KA . We pushed on ! 😄
Snowdons didn't disappoint. Smoked meat sandwiches, kniches , half sour pickles , coleslaw , cucumber salad .
All the Jewish greatest hits . But, the surprise turned out to be the meat balls in sauce with fries. Jewtine we called it. Unbeatable . Oh, & Karneatzel . & Flieschers cherry coke !
The staff were so accommodating. We were inquisitive & clueless . We were given chopped liver on rye to see if we liked it & ended up buying a bunch of stuff for the hotel ❤?
What an experience .
I lived in Snowdon for 10 years & never went there until the last month because I had to leave the neighbourhood. It's pretty good. Maybe the best of its kind in the city & that's a big statement considering the other one.
Our second favorite of the three smoked meat spots we tried. The sandwich was tasty, meat was well done & lovely peppery flavor, & the matzo ball soup was delicious. The service was on the slow side, the staff's friendliness made up for it.
L'endroit est convivial pour les passants. Le smoke meet est très bon. Le service est bien aussi main en anglais la plupart. Les portions ne sont pas généreuses donc ca devient un peut cher à la fin.
I ordered the tongue sandwich with fries & was not impressed. The sandwich was served cold & lacked seasoning, which made it quite underwhelming. The fries, however, were good
