| - OK, this is easily the best American BBQ in Montreal now.
Came in after a whole week of rain and needed comfort food. After finding out their fried chicken is one of the best in the city, I made up my mind to come in and see if all the hype is real.
It is.
Seriously, after looking at the menu and the piles of food going by me to other customers, I was torn between ribs and fried chicken. Dimitri, my server offered that I could have both by ordering one plate and pay by the piece of the other. So that did it, I ordered BBQ beef ribs and a piece of the fried chicken. I should say that what I got was A RIB, not ribs, the thing was massive and the amount of meat on it rivaled any steak I've had. It reminded me of the kinds of ribs Fred and Barney would chow down on in the Flintstones cartoon. The meat was practically falling off the bone, the top was crusted and inside all the BBQ sauce had somehow been absorbed. I did not mind for a second throwing my tables manners out the window and looking like Conan the Barbarian, because it was that good. The fried chicken was also fantastic and I intend on ordering a full plate next time.
Fries, coleslaw and other sides were average. The Bloody Mary was great and Dimitri is a great server.
Because my rib was so big, I barely made a dent into it and they were more than happy to wrap it up and allow me to take it home which was cool.
I'm coming back with some more carnivore friends.
