Superbe endroit pour manger une poutine ou un burger, surtout après une grosse nuit !
Institution locale de la poutine, typique de la poutine : fromage frais en crotte, frittes cuite comme il faut, & choix de sauces & condiments :) Il ne vaut mieux pas avoir des problèmes de cholestérol, mais là on s'en fiche!

Très bonne Poutine a un prix raisonnable. Côté service & salle à manger c’est ordinaire mais la qualité & le prix de la nourriture compense amplement

This may not be your average Michelin starred experience, but you get 100x as many meals. Any fast food chain should look to these guys as an example of optimal quality to price, as these guys have maxed it out completely. I wouldn't come here for the health benefits, but absolutely do come here for the mental health benefits related to their food...you'll probably leave happy, & with money still in your bank account.

From a food perspective, it's pretty damn solid. The poutine was incredibly tasty & comforting. The one I had was topped with fresh to order onion rings, which alone were worth the visit. The other food that I saw looked damn good too. It was unfortunate I came here for 2nd dinner/snack, but I'll definitely be back for 1st dinner & 2nd breakfast whenever I'm nearby.
