Le Cochon Dingue s'impose comme une institution québécoise incontournable, réputée pour son menu robuste mettant en vedette des côtes levées cuites lentement et des classiques de la cuisine bistro française. La cuisine maintient un accent rigoureux sur la qualité des ingrédients, particulièrement à travers ses célèbres côtes levées à l'érable et ses déclinaisons traditionnelles de poutine. Les convives découvrent un intérieur rustique et animé, marqué par des boiseries qui définissent l'identité visuelle et sociale de l'enseigne. La sélection culinaire comprend une variété de plats traditionnels incluant la soupe à l'oignon, le steak frites et une vaste gamme de desserts maison. Cet établissement offre des résultats constants à travers ses multiples emplacements, ancrant sa réputation dans des saveurs authentiques plutôt que dans l'expérimentation gastronomique. Chaque assiette privilégie des portions généreuses et des techniques traditionnelles, renforçant son statut de destination privilégiée pour des repas consistants dans un cadre décontracté et sans prétention.
Le Cochon Dingue est largement reconnu pour son atmosphère chaleureuse et accueillante ainsi que pour la qualité de son menu, particulièrement ses déjeuners et brunchs appréciés de tous. De nombreux clients soulignent la générosité des portions, la saveur des plats de porc et la qualité du service, notant souvent que le personnel est aimable, professionnel et de bon conseil. Bien que la majorité des expériences soient positives et mettent en avant un excellent rapport qualité-prix, certains visiteurs ont relevé des incohérences occasionnelles concernant la température des plats, la rapidité du service lors des périodes d'affluence ou les préférences culinaires. Dans l'ensemble, l'établissement demeure une destination hautement recommandée pour les familles et les voyageurs en quête d'un cadre convivial et de repas savoureux au cœur de la ville.
Always a great place to go eat breakfast! I live their egg benedict. They are good & their potatoes! My God! Please! If you like onions & great spicies, these potatoes are really flavorful!!! Nom nom nom
This place is spacious & cozy! Really clean & peaceful.
I recommend to book your visit because it's a popular place to eat!! 😀
The service is really efficient & the employees are really kind & take the time to explain the menu if needed.
Their apple butter spread is to die for! Please try it!!!
We came in for dinner, few adults & kids & also came back for breakfast on a different day
The atmosphere is very cozy
The service is super quick & the staff are very nice
There were kid friendly menu options that the kids seem to enjoy very much
Dinner 4/5
I ordered
Beef tartare which was fresh & well seasoned,also comes in a nice size portion
Ceaser salad with grilled chicken - the salad itself was nice ,I was a bit thrown off by the fact that the chicken was cold though but that might be just my personal preference
Washed it all down with the Bloody mary ( it has a different name on the menu but for the life of me I can't remember)- the cocktail comes with this bacon wrapped sosage that was very yummy , the tomato blend is tasty but was a bit light on the alcohol portion in my opinion
Breakfast/Brunch 5/5
We ordered different combos & everyone enjoyed everything!
I ordered Eggs Benedict with duck confie , side of crispy bacon,side of crape & a Berry smoothie
The crape was delicious as is ,no need to even put maple on it
The eggs- perfectly made & I like that you can order 1 or 2 eggs. This allowed me to be able to taste more sides because ordered 1 egg.
The apple butter is delicious
The smoothie was super fresh as well
Very recommend for brunck/breakfast.Have some patiance, gets very bussy in the morning
Came here for breakfast & ordered the Eggs Benedict. The food was decent - not exceptional, but satisfying. Service was good & attentive, & the restaurant was clean & well maintained. Its downtown location makes it very easy to get to, especially if you're staying nearby, & it's nice that they have multiple locations around the city. If you're visiting for breakfast, I'd highly recommend trying the French toast.

Very disappointed with our experience! When we came to QC last, I remembered having a good experience here & this was the first place I wanted to come back to when we returned to QC & wish we left the original memory of Cochon Dingue in the memory banks.
Sadly, we liked the ambiance better than the food & service. Food was adequate, but did not taste fresh. Had the duck confit benedict & this is one of the worst. The sauce was not warm; nor was the egg or duck. The potatoes were the best part & partly because they were hot-ish. The food seemed like it was cooked in batches & assembled when ordered w/o reheating.
Our server was so fake & unwelcoming. She spoke to us in what she thought was a friendly manner, but it came off as fake & condescending. We think she thought was good at acting to appease, but she lacked skills to be inviting.
She never checked on our food only when she dropped it off & when we noticed there was no ketchup (which she took as part of the order), we did not see her for quite a while (over 5 mins) so we asked another server as the place was almost dead & servers were all bunched together & chatting & we wanted to start eating.
Our server magically re-appeared when we were asking another server for ketchup (politely), she made a grandiose gesture & started to speak in French that it was such a calamity that it was forgotten (clearly thinking we could not speak French). After this she disappeared again for over 10-15 mins & we had to ask for coffee from a different server.
It was all offensive & our server never came back to check on things again till she presented the bill & waited for the tip. She clearly did not get a good tip.
The rest of what we would have tipped was given to the very warm & friendly host/barista who had sat us & end up making us the coffee we asked for.
Side note - when we were leaving, our server was assisting the Francophone couple beside us in a friendly & animated tone. So it wasn't just a bad day for her. She choose to be lazy & unkind. The only reason for an extra star was because of the host/barista that we had dealings with at almost the end of the meal. Kudos to him!
Food was pretty weak for the cost. Everything arrived cold from coffee to food. I ordered the healthy breakfast & it was 20 dollars for 1 poached egg on an English muffin, a small amount of cottage cheese & a meager amount of fruit. Some of the dishes our group ordered were tasty (the country duo wasn't bad), but everything was cold & in general we were pretty underwhelmed. It's a huge place, though, so if you need to get into somewhere with a hearty breakfast on a Saturday or Sunday morning, you'll likely be able to get in pretty quickly.
Fantastic restaurant with a great breakfast/brunch menu. I got the eggs Benedict with lox & she got the vegan sandwich. The food was incredible. The potato's were nice & crispy & the hollandaise sauce on the eggs was so flavorful. The waiter even brought us fruit smoothies to try for free. The coffee was great & the restaurant was clean & well decorated. The bathroom facilities were state of the art with a really cool sink/hand dryer combo. This place was incredible!
