Hit the spot! Great 90s music playing in the place too. Our server, Val, was super accommodating when I messed up my order (sorry lol). Really tasty!

We are locals and this was our first time there. The inside is cleverly decorated and fun. We were greeted right away by a young man that seems to do everything with warmth and a smile. We sat at the window. He guided us with his menu knowledge and we ordered a delicious sub with lotsa meat and cheese, poutine and fried pickles. Sub Philly cheese steak 10/10 Poutine 8/10. ( more cheese under plzz) Fried pickles 8/10 needs a new dip Service 10/10 Food is flying out of the kitchen 10/10 Bathrooms needs upgrading Next time we’re trying the smoked meat ! Would highly recommend ! Need more/better desserts

Hate the way they changed the montreal smoked meat sandwich. Was much better when it was on a sub and toasted.

Place was packed. Perfect location for lunch after visiting the museum. Being a good dad I waited for a table and enjoyed a pint at the bar while kids looked at nearby shops. Food was great. Best cheese steak I’ve had. Atmosphere was relaxed and exciting at the same time. Enjoyed some local guys singing along to country songs at the bar. Would go again.

Overpriced, food isn’t great. I ordered the pina colada was way too sweet, and the beyond meat sub didn’t have any veggies in it. Burgers are subpar.

This restaurant makes amazing drinks, we got our food before our drinks and the bartender was kind enough to order us drinks on the house. Awesome environment, shoutout Jeff for making our birthday trip memorable!

Service, food, and atmosphere were all incredible!!! Definitely will be coming back when I visit Montreal in the future. Shoutout to our server Jeff, he was amazing 10/10 service. I ordered the regular smoked meat sandwich. The meat was juicy snd delicious, the sourdough bread was freshly baked, the pickle had a nice crunch, and the mustard gave a nice acidic kick! Mouthwatering is definitely an understatement! As someone who takes pride in the food they eat, I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Montreal to come to this gem of a restaurant.

Stumbled upon this place accidentally and honestly did not expect to be this impressed. The Montreal smoked meat sandwich was the real deal, perfectly tender and generously stacked just the way it should be. The cheesesteak hoagie was equally amazing, juicy, cheesy and honestly one of the better ones I've had in the city.
