When in Montreal, do as the Montrealers.
Except this inconspicuous joint on Prince Arthur isn't patronized as much as it should be. Their pizzas are very fresh and tasty, and the poutine is cooked to order. The fries are sizzling as you wait, and are then garnished with a very generous portion of delicious cheese curds and a massive dab of steamy gravy.
I find their poutine to be the one of the best in Montreal and certainly the best value for money. The large ones are HUGE, all for 5 bucks and something.
The owner is always cheerful and up for some banter. Exquise is fantastic, and they apparently do some local delivery too!
