Les critiques s'accordent à décrire Yans Deli comme une adresse moderne et chaleureuse où la nourriture est exceptionnelle: pastrami et brisket remarquables, latkes croustillants, soupes riches et plats faits maison, servis dans une ambiance conviviale et un cadre soigné. Le service est généralement décrit comme attentif et sympathique, et la carte, qui va du brunch aux plats à emporter en passant par des boissons maison, offre une grande variété pour toutes les occasions. Si les prix peuvent sembler élevés et certains repas ont connu des ratés, l'ensemble est perçu comme une expérience culinaire mémorable qui donne envie de revenir pour explorer d'autres plats.
Delicious matza balls & soup but 40$
For 2 soups & 5 matza balls? Bit expensive but so good might be back anyway… Soup was indeed stacked with stuff not just broth so maybe thats Y
Beautiful, minimalist space with food that is extraordinary. I had the chicken soup (which was the best I've ever eaten), & simply had to bring one home. Also had the pastrami omelette - don't let the simple name fool you -this was an elevated, delicious egg frittata; juicy & bursting with flavour. Can't wait to come back to try so many other tempting dishes...

I think the word Deli fooled me. This is much much more. From soup to dessert every bite was an explosion of flavors. I need to go back again & probably again to make sure that I was right the first time & chose other things on the menu! Thank you for a wonderful experience!
I was there today & wanted to tell Yan myself, but he was busy with other patrons & it was close to closing time, so I'll share this here.
I've been here about half a dozen times, & beyond the food being excellent (I haven't tried everything yet, but the chicken soup is to die for, a true umami bomb, & the celeri soda… who knew?), the staff is absolutely stellar.
Every single visit, they've been efficient, engaged, & genuinely friendly with every table & customer I could observe, regardless of age, gender, or what was ordered. In any dining establishment, that level of consistency is pure gold.
I truly hope that in these difficult times for the food industry, Yan's vision results in success equal to the quality of the product being offered. This place deserves to be a mainstay on the Montreal culinary scene.
An absolute amazing experience! From the friendly greeting, to the comfortable atmosphere, delicious food, everything was perfect. Even the music was great. This is better than any deli I've been to. For dinner, we tried a variety of dishes, including soup, steak, chicken & pastrami. You will not be disappointed. I cannot wait to return!
Great food , Benji served up an authentic & delicious Jewish style brunch. The latke was HUGE , eggs & salami delicious , salmon plate decadent. Service was friendly. I very much enjoyed the dish-ware too.
I also went there for dinner service.
-We ordered the chopped liver to start. It was a pate style chopped liver. It came with pickles , challah roles & a delicious everything bagel seasoned compound butter. Yum.
-for main I had the chicken noodle soup. Awesome ! Top tier matzo ball & kreplach (don't tell bubby)
-we ordered the steak frites which consisted of a specially prepared brisket & fries in a decadent mushroom sauce. Wonderful! & great sauces to go with the fries.
-we ordered the special of the day which was a latke sandwich of steak tartare , topped with a devilled egg & caviar??? Delicious innovative haute cuisine that we've never tasted before & loved.
-throw in the home made celery soda to drink & the very friendly & attentive service & you're in for a great experience.

It's a deli except everything is different, more creative & better. Think the best challah you have had, the biggest richest bowl of chicken soup & potato latkes with beef tartare & caviar. Insanely delicious.
10 stars for service if I could. Food was amazing as well. I had the chicken soup & the sandwich special which was their brisket & corned beef on challah. Our server Matt was super accommodating & energetic. Thanks Matt!
Came to Montreal from Ottawa to meet a client & had to give Yan's Deli a shot & wow, what a gem. I had their special soup & sandwich, & it was absolutely fantastic. The quality is top-tier, & you can tell they put real care into what they serve.
Tried their celery soda too… incredible. You have to try it.
This place is definitely becoming a staple for me whenever I'm in Montreal. Can't wait to work my way through more of the menu. Highly recommend. 🙌
Hat's off to these guys. They know what they are doing. Great vibe here. Business lunch for 2. Incredible! We ordered:
2x Matzoh Ball Soup with Kreplach.
2x Club Sandwiches
2x Diet Cokes
= $65
Looking forward to trying some deli next time. I cannot wait for my next visit!

Yesterday was one of those rainy Mondays, the kind that makes driving from place to place for work feel even heavier. It was also one of those days when I was missing my mom deeply. She passed away this summer, & rainy days like that used to be the ones where she'd call me in the middle of the day to say,'I made matzo ball soup for you, come pick it up on your way home.'
While driving, I thought maybe I'd stop somewhere for soup. Not just because I wanted something warm, but because I was craving that comforting feeling of being cared for, something that reminded me of her. I went Yan's Deli, & although the door was unlocked & I walked in, they were actually closed.
Benji greeted me kindly & apologized, saying they were closed. I told him I had really been hoping for some soup. He paused, looked at me, & said,'I could probably do that for takeout if that's OK.'
So on a day when it was pouring rain, & the restaurant was closed, this man stopped what he was doing, went into the kitchen, & made me soup.
While I waited, I held back tears because his kindness & generosity were exactly what I needed in that moment. It felt like a small act of love from a stranger, & somehow, a little piece of my mom's warmth shining through.
When he handed me the bag & said,'It really is soup weather,' I smiled & thanked him. Sitting in my car, eating what was probably the best soup I've had in a long time, I cried missing my mom, but so grateful for the compassion of someone who didn't even know me.
It might sound cliché to say that this place & this soup will hold a special place in my heart, but they truly will.
Thank you, Benji, for reminding me that kindness still exists in the simplest moments. I can't wait to come back.
Visited Yan's Deli today & had their chef's special menu as suggested by our very friendly & attentive server Jenni.
The burger was amazing. Served in challah bun with an egg on top of the patty was one of the best I've had in Montreal.
The cheesy tomato soup hit the spot. It was hot, fresh, right amount of cheese on top & hearty. Finished my meal with a decadent, fluffy blueberry French toast. Everything was excellent. The space felt warm & welcoming. A great spot for elevated comfort food in Montreal. Highly recommended.
Pros: Delicious & well priced food paired with great service. Parking available.
Cons: Navigating traffic in Decari
