Don't believe the hype. Go check it it yourself. Very busy, even at 1AM when we went. Waiting to sit in seemed like a long time so our party opted to get take out.
For the record, I know having takeout does not give the food justice.
The fries were thoroughly fried dark brown. For a poutine, there was lots of gravy and cheese curds. The cheese curds do not melt but have a rubbery texture. I enjoyed it at the beginning but quickly the fries became soggy. Quite salty but not bad.
Try it yourself.
