  • I love Montreal. Adore. Obsessed. It may be chalked up to the amazing European style architecture, the beautiful local crowd, the fact they speak French and it is also because Montreal has a plethora of amazing restaurants. Le Gros Jambon is one of those restaurants where you love Montreal a little bit more while you dine here. Located in an old diner like setting, Le Gros Jambon is located on the cusp of the Old Port near a bunch of hotels - the Westin, Embassy Suites, Loft, etc.. which if you are staying in one of those head here. Don't go with a group as literally this place has NO tables, just counter space. When glancing the menu, you smile. Diner food but with a gourmet, gastro twist. I was debating between the duck blt and the coca-cola burger, and the owner said to try the burger. A burger topped with coca-cola mayo, caramelized onions, a fried pickle, lettuce, tomato and a delicious bun this burger was gonna be legendary. I opted for the poutine on the side for a +$4. Did I mention reggae was playing in the background? I'm not talking about some best of Bob Marley ish, I'm talking Lee Scratch Perry, some old stuff. Yes. The food came out. The burger was near perfection minus a few main factors: It was overcooked. I don't know if they cook burgers here well but, no pink in this bad boy. I was never asked how I wanted it cooked but, this is how they serve it. I do like my burgers a wee bit bloody so it was a bit of a let down also, you couldn't really taste the coca cola in the mayo and if a burger is named after one ingredient, it better damn as well taste that way but, damn that fried pickle was amazing. Maybe rename to Fried Pickle burger, since that was clearly the star of the show. The burger did have so much going on and all the flavors went really well together. The poutine was really good, a great taste to the gravy, loads of cheese curds, perfectly fried fries. Yes. Now, was it legendary as it sounded? No. But, still solidly good for the $12ish price tag. I would definitely recommend coming here especially if staying/living in the area. This is a gem of a "diner" and their unique twists on some classic favorites along with their super chill/hip diner atmosphere make this a no brainer. If asking for the burger maybe mention you'd like it medium? (If you do indeed want that). Full bar as well!
