The owner is so kind & sweet. We make sure to stop by every time we're in town. Great authentic kabanos, kovbasa & sandwiches made fresh on the spot. We also always leave with a little something for the ride home ☺?

Quel excellent service ! Merci à Angel pour son acceuil incroyable & le meilleur sandwich à la saucisse que j'ai mangé ! J'ai trouver mon nouvel endroit pref !
Best smoked meat sandwich! We searched around for the best smoked meat in Montreal & this highly rated Deli showed up. & after going, I completely understand, not only is the smoked meat delicious, the atmosphere, friendliness & heart of the deli shines through! Can't wait to come back :) Came in as strangers, left as friends.
Délicieux sandwichs, & que dire du cheesecake à la pêche! Le service est toujours très sympathique, même lorsque la toute petite boutique se transforme en longue file d'attente.
Pour les fans de gâteau forêt noire, on y trouve notamment des cerises griottes en conserve & fraîches congelées.

The only thing better than the sandwiches, was the customer service. Very lovely lady behind the counter. This will be a spot I stop at every time I'm in Montreal. Thanks Angel!
Angel was so helpful & able to make over 30 delicious sandwiches in less than 20 minutes to satisfy out touring rugby team from the UK. Made the boys day at a cost that suited the budget. Six stars.
Lovely neighborhood delli! Authentic & charming with such a friendly owner! The smoked meat sandwich is one of the best ever tried! There is a wide range of Ukrainian delights not to be missed. Will be back again!
Sandwich délicieux a très bon prix. La propriétaire est très sympathique & offre un service de qualité. Un petit commerce de quartier qui vaut la peine & qu'il faut encourager!
The smoked meat tasted decent but lacked the tender, melt-in-your-mouth quality I was hoping for; instead, it felt chewy & reminded me of a hot dog, which was disappointing. The bread was slightly dry, failing to enhance the sandwich experience. While the deli offers a respectable selection, it doesn't compare to the renowned Schwartz's, which clearly remains the gold standard in the local deli scene.

What an amazing deli! We had the hot smoked meat sandwich & it was incredible. Great selection of deli meats kolbasa & Ukrainian treats. The woman who served us was delightful. 10/10, we will be back the next time we visit Montreal.
Went in for a smoked meat sandwich & left very satisfied. Probably the best one I've ever had & the egg bread it was served on was delicious. The server was super friendly & a delight to chat to whilst I waited! 100% will return when next here
