| - If you're a first timer in Montreal, this stop is a must even if it's just to say you've tried it. However, there are better places for subsequent visits with shorter lineups.
The lines are long, usually a 45min wait during peak hours and the seating area is crowded. It's definitely a go in, eat, get out, joint. There are three options for the sandwich: fatty (the juiciest), medium and lean.
On this past visit, I got the fatty sandwich, the French fries, coleslaw, a dill pickle and a Colts cherry cola. The "classic" meal. It was a lot of food. The sandwich was meaty and the meat melted in my mouth. The fries were well cooked, and warm right out of the fryer. Everything else was simply mediocre, hence the ranking.
If you're coming for the sandwich you won't be disappointed, they are consistent with the smoked meat. Everything else is a toss of the coin. This place is worth trying once, but with other places around with similar quality, once might be enough.
