I first found out about Corned Beef House on facebook, my friend uploaded a photo of giant sandwich filled with layers of meat and I couldn't wait to check them out. I am in Entertainment district pretty often but didn't notice Corned Beef House until I literally looked it up. It's not tucked away, but a little hard to find around the corner just off of major street where you can find milestone, jack astor and hooters.
I decided to drop by for a dinner on a week day with a friend and walked into a restaurant pretty much empty. Corned beef house is not really set up like your ordinary deli, but more so your neighborhood bar. The atmosphere is pretty laid back and would be perfect spot for quick lunch or family dinner.
Every Monday, they have a Man VS Sandwich contest where if you consume a 40oz sandwich within 1 hour, your sandwich is free! Anyone up for the challenge? I don't think I could do it..
The menu is pretty simple, you can get a deli sandwich ( choose from Montreal smoked meat, corned beef or couple other choices) and then choose the size (Huge 7oz, Gigantic 10oz or Colossal 16oz). You can get the sandwich by itself or make it a combo by adding couple more dollars and get it with soup or salad.
With the bread, you have choice of light, dark and marble rye and then choice of mustard with yellow, dijon and honey mustard.
Ordered: Corned Beef Sandwich platter 4/5
* 7oz sandwich with light rye bread and honey mustard on the side
* Substituted fries for poutine, coleslaw and pickles for $13.25
* Corned beef was super flavorful and there was so much of it
* light rye bread was dense and held up quite well but I still wouldn't try to hold up entire sandwich
* I am not the biggest fan of poutine, but really enjoyed it at Corned beef house
* Generous amounts of cheese curds on top were squeaky and delicious
* Coleslaw was tangy and complemented the heavy sandwich
Ordered: Montreal Smoked Meat 4/5
* 7oz sandwich with light rye bread and dijon mustard on the side for $8.49
* This was my first time having smoked meat sandwich and honestly I couldn't tell the difference between 2 sandwiches
* I enjoyed both of them nontheless
* Dilled pickle on the side was juicy and just perfect
Ordered: Onion rings
* Since we were getting poutine with the platter, we decided to try their onion rings
* Really large portion and loved the crispy batter
Summary: Overall I really enjoyed Smoked meat sandwiches at Corned Beef House. If you are in the entertainment district feeling hungry, check out Corned Beef House and maybe try their challenge if you are brave enough!
