| - Great service, great food, amazing 'Mexican Bulldog'.
My friend and I came here on a whim after every other place we wanted to go to was closed. I was sure I would be disappointed since I had my heart set on something totally different. I also thought we'd be walking into one of Montreal's tourist traps that pile large amounts of tasteless food on your plate for a ridiculous price, BUT, I was pleasantly surprised! I wouldn't say every aspect of the meal was perfect, but they definitely know how to smoke and BBQ their meat for a very reasonable price!
We shared the jalapeno poppers that were stuffed in cream cheese and wrapped in bacon, they were delicious. Only order them if you can handle spice, because these pack one hell of a punch. For my main dish, I ordered the pork/chicken/brisket sliders - the pulled pork was my favourite of the mini trio. It was juicy, sweet, and full of flavour. The smoked chicken came second. However, the brisket didn't blow me away very much, I found it to be somewhat dry. My side of sweet potato fries was the best of the two side choices you could make, they're fresh and you can totally tell by their taste and how vibrantly rich they look. I would not order the smoked vegetables side ever again, in my experience they were rather tasteless and the corn was absolutely stale. There are various other side choices to choose from that I'll check out next time as I work my way through this rich menu.
Make sure you order a 'Mexican Bulldog', they make a stellar margarita, topped off with a bottle of corona. Two great drinks in one! You can't go wrong.
