| - I was a little skeptical about this place cause oh why get fried chicken/soul food in Montreal. (When I'm visiting from the States) But oh man i was wrong. This place is the bomb. I can't be completely sure how authentic this is, but damn, it's delicious. So this place is a bit small. It can only hold like maybe 6-10 people sitting inside the actual restaurant. BUT you have an option for a picnic! Which I did read about on other yelps or have imagined it would be an actual picnic. Since there weren't many open seats for a group of four, we did a picnic. Dinette Triple Crown gives you the picnic basket, the blanket, utensils, mason jars for cups, water, napkins, sanitary wipes, etc. All the things you need for a picnic at the park that is across the street from the restaurant. (Oh and you have the option to take out as well if you're a local)
So I had no idea that they actual did that! I was super surprised. The ladies at the counter are super nice and down to earth. They answered our questions and was really accommodating when we didn't want a picnic cause we thought it was gonna rain, but we did the picnic anyway because they had the basket ready. The lady said it was really nice to have a picnic under the gazebo at the park. And that's exactly what we did. It was so nice!
Now for the actual food, it is delicious~! I had some mac & cheese with a side of fried sweet potatoes. This mac & cheese is definitely different than the norm. You can real taste the cheese because it was slightly bitter or tangy? I'm not sure, but it was different. It was also pretty heavy. I love sweet potatoes and it came with sauce. It tasted so good! I had a piece of my friend's chicken, and it was juicy and moist in the inside. When I thought fried chicken, I thought they bread it and deep fried the chicken. That was not the case. I'm not sure what they did but it goes well the sauces they gave us.
It may be a little expensive but it is portion is right for the price. They also had some alcoholic drinks that I look good too.
I see some reviews about the wait time, we came off peak (in the summer), so we didn't wait too long. Maybe 30 minutes. It wasn't too bad. I would love to come back and try something else!! Get the chicken! You won't regret it! :)
