The poutine was simple with good texture on the fries, & not overly salty gravy. The burger was juicy & the toppings tasted fresh.

La best place à saint roch pour une bouffe de fin de soirée!

Pas la plus grosse salle à manger, mais de toute façon quand tu commande en takeout c'est tellement chaud que si tu habite à 10 min de marche, cest encore chaud quand t'arrive chez toi.

Le staff est crissement friendly aussi, j'ai honnêtement rien a redire 🫶

Casse-Croûte Chez Gaston is a great little hole-in-the-wall spot for classic Quebec casse-croûte fare. Their club sandwich is excellent, & you can switch out the fries for a poutine for just three bucks more-a deal worth taking. Drinks are a bit pricey, but that seems to be the trend everywhere these days. Overall, an excellent stop for casse-croûte lovers like myself.

Delicious poutine, melty cheese curds, wonderful gravy, good sized fries, crispy bacon. The Poutine Sylvie delicious - probably the best poutine I've had in Canada so far.

Visiting QC & wanted to find an authentic Quebecois poutine, & this place delivered! Staff was very friendly & the poutine was great.

This place was recommended by a local & it did not disappoint. The potatoes were a bit sweet (I noticed Quebec fries are usually like this) which isn't a bad thing.

Cheese was squeaky although I wish it was more melted & hot.

C'etait ma premiere fois dans ce restaurant & j'ai vraiment aimer mon experience! Les deux travailleurs ont faite sur que j'étais a l'aise & bien servit. La nourriture est frais faite (on peut meme dire qu'elle est faite devant toi!) & l'atmosphere est "friendly". Non plus de fermer tard, ils sont vraiment vite pour te servir. Merci beaucoup guys!

I came to Quebec City with some friends for the ComicCon of 2024. Our Airbnb place was RIGHT beside Chez Gaston. We all love their poutine. They are soooo good. 5 stars all around.
