Review Summary

Casse-Croûte chez Mag receives highly polarized feedback, serving as a popular destination known for its generous lobster-themed dishes and iconic poutine. While many patrons praise the fresh, large portions of lobster and the scenic outdoor picnic area, others express frustration regarding inconsistent food quality, specifically citing issues with soggy or burnt fries, lukewarm sauce, and occasional concerns over ingredient freshness. The establishment is frequently busy, leading to long lineups, though many find the service to be efficient and friendly despite the rush. Opinions on pricing are mixed, with some feeling the generous portions justify the cost, while others view it as expensive for a casual canteen setting. Ultimately, it remains a heavily discussed spot on the island, drawing both enthusiastic fans and visitors who feel the experience does not always live up to the social media hype.

La poutine au homard & celle au crevette, juste woowww!! Delicieux!

Poutine with smoked meats- 2.5 of 5. Quantity is good for medium size & there is plenty of meats & cheese piled on. However both gravy & smoked meats are bland in flavor. Potato isn't great either. The gravy to solid ratio was off. We ended up throwing away half. I hate wasting food but we just couldn't finish it. You may have better luck.

Lobster roll - 2 of 5. If you've had lobster rolls before at a decent shop, then you will 100% be disappointed. There is whiff of unfreshness from the meat which tells me they don't use the freshest live lobster. The amount of meat is visually inflated by the bed of salad. Meat itself is also not seasoned. Sad to say it is the worst lobster roll I've had by a mile. It was edible but very disappointing. Don't get it.

Services is ok. The staff is young & not trained well in customer interaction. However due to seasonality & location of the establishment it's not surprising.

There are plenty of outdoor seating but there is no table service which is fine for a place like this. What is not fine is asking for tip. I know you can opt out but it is not a comfortable experience. Other semi food carts with takeaway food don't do this.

This is not a 4.5 star establishment on my book. I would hate to see people make a long trip out here like we did. You are better off having meals on the mainland in my opinion.

La poutine n'avait aucun goût. Personne na prit la peine d'Haché le bacon pour une frite sauce. Sincèrement déçu pour le prix payé, je m'attendais à mieux face à toutes ces promotions sur TikTok. Je préfère de loin les cantines du coin.

$85.00 pour 3 n'est pas donné pour manger dans une cantine. Je trouve votre réponse très arrogante mon cher.
2 burgers
1 guédille-homard avec poutine à la place des frites & deux breuvages
Pour $85.00 pourboire inclus.
C'est très prétentieux de votre part.
C'était bien, sans plus.

Food was alright, but not outstanding. Lobster roll was half salad & half lobster - ratio which I liked. Poutine didn't have much sauce. It was good but we might have better options in the Montreal area

Première fois que je mangeais une poutine au homard! Je suis tombé à la renverse... Multiple tables à pique nique qui sont disposées en surplomb, nous offrant une magnifique vue. À revivre, mon bedon le réclame !!!

Je ne sais pas si nous avons été mal chanceux mais nous avons été très déçus de notre repas. Mon conjoint a pris une poutine, la sauce était bonne & beaucoup de fromage mais les frites étaient vraiment vraiment pas bonnes, pas croustillantes du tout & molles à l'intérieur. J'ai pris la guédille au homard, le pain était sans goût ( juste grillé mais manquait de beurre ce qui est important pour une bonne guédille), le homard était bon & généreux mais la sauce était sans goût. Ce n'est vraiment pas la meilleure que j'ai mangé dans ma vie! & mes frites étaient bien sûr molles & soit pas assez cuites ou la pomme de terre n'était pas de bonne qualité pour faire des frites. Désolée mais je n'y retournerais pas!

A gorgeous trek to this adorable little red shack that cranks out some mind blowing Poutine!

Had the classic & was super happy!

Wish they had pumped ketchup instead of little packets!

But on a beautiful day to sit on the red benches & have some poutine was great!
