Semplicemente delizioso! Un panino che viene fatto così dal 1932. Ne abbiamo ordinato uno a testa, poi subito altri due. Non si fanno modifiche (giustamente). Location storica con quel fascino passato che da sola vale la strada da percorrere per raggiungerlo. Le bibite vengono assemblate al momento, davanti al bancone. Cetrioli sotto aceto buonissimi. Il personale è gentile e sorridente. Si paga solo in contanti o con circuito canadese, che noi, dall'Italia non avevamo. Ma la ragazza al bancone ci ha spiegato dove prelevare e abbiamo risolto in un attimo. Consigliatissimo! Panino perfetto, bibite perfette, atmosfera perfetta!View more

Lovely historic deli! I visited Wilensky's as part of a food tour, & it was a very fun peek into Montreal's culinary history. It makes a very cheap, quick lunch if you're in the area, & I appreciate that the deli still feels like a 1920s movie set. The staff is super friendly & feels extremely passionately about their mustard -- so don't try to ask for a sandwich without it -- & it feels like a lovely neighborhood joint. They specialize in the Wilensky special, which includes grilled bologna, salami, cheese, & mustard on a Kaiser roll, which my fellow food tour guests seemed to really enjoy. Their vegetarian alternative had egg salad & mustard on a Kaiser roll, which was tasty, but honestly not my favorite part of the tour; the bread was a little bit too dry, & it felt rather one-note with just the egg salad. Even so, it was a really fun visit, & I'm sure it's better for folks who eat meat.View more

No trip to Montreal's complete for me without a Wilensky's with Swiss cheese & extra mustard! Absolutely delicious little snack with a proprietary corn meal dusted bun that I have never seen anywhere else makes this the perfect little treat. A MUST eat in Mile End!View more

Great people, good food that always hits the spot we went on a secret food tour & came back the next day. The sandwiches are the best I ever had. It's a baloney, mustard, & cornmeal type bun with great texture. Also comes with a side of pickle spears. Will come back again when we go to MontrealView more
