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!

De la folie cette poutine (moyenne Gaston).
Ne changez rien, c'est de la bombe.
Rapport: Qualité/prix/quantité imbattable. Merci pour cette bonne bouffe !
