| - It was our first time in Montreal and many told us we had to visit this place - so we did! We visited on a Saturday afternoon during our touristy weekend in Montreal, and found the place super busy. Luckily, we came around 1:00 PM and there was no lineup for a table. We were seated right away. If you don't want to wait hours for a table, visit during off-peak meal times (it's open 24 hours anyway).
First, if you're driving. We found free street parking right by the park located beside the restaurant. But note, parking is only free during certain times of the day (I think our particular spot was only available before 3:00 PM). Make sure you read the signs!
Second, the food. Carbs galore but it was worth it. Our server suggested getting the onion rings as a side to our poutine, with honey as a dipping sauce. GET THIS! The best onion rings I've ever had - fried to perfection, thin and crispy, and the honey was a cherry on top. For poutine, we got the T-Rex poutine which was full of ground beef, pepperoni, bacon and sausage. This was delicious but not the best - the meat and fries could have been crispier but overall, a decent choice.
A great poutine experience in Montreal. Atmosphere is lively, and you'll enjoy your time here. With tax, and tip, we paid a total of $22.00.
