We read everywhere that you can't visit Montreal without trying poutine...so we did. It's not for everyone. Poutine is fries covered with gravy and sprinkled with cheese curds. It's EXACTLY how you'd expect it to taste =P
The ambience of this place is really chill and it seems like a fun place to hangout with buddies (especially if you're drunk). I liked the bright colors and the mismatched décor; appeals to the younger crowd as it seemed like everyone was under 30.
On to the food...the fries are really good! Unfortunately, that was the best part. The gravy was very wet and the taste got old fast so we ended up picking only the dry fries after awhile. If you want poutine with meat, I recommend getting the steak NOT the hot dogs. The hot dog was very rubbery and seemed like the cheap of the cheap stuff. They do have some decent beers too.
We would not return, but it's only because poutine is not our type of food. This place is doing something right because the locals LOVE it.
