Classic poutine. Great taste, not super salty like in other places. Owner was cutting yukon potatoes right there. Freshest curds I've tried, they even tasted like fresh cheese. Best poutine I've had.

Poutine Sauce brune efficace. Mais pas extraordinaire. Parc contre les frites étaient bien cuites & il y avait beaucoup de fromage. Donc une bonne poutine ! Je n'ai pas goûter au reste du menu. Mais tout me semblait bien.

Excellent poutine. Got the "sylton poutine" which is pretty much everything you can put in it. Very fast & efficient service. Couple were friendly & chatting with customers.

Authentic poutine, really tasty.
The server/chefs only seemed to speak French so was a little awkward ordering but we just named the one we wanted & all’s good!
It’s only a small place so not much room to dine in.
But would highly recommend for some proper poutine!
