The service here is what you would expect for a sports bar... and the seating is a bit tight but you're here for the food! Huge menu with some vegetarian options in each section. You can get a couple of the apps like fries, veggie burger wrap, veggie burger, veggie pizza and Californian pasta. The veggie burger was tasty, came with delicious cole slaw and pickles. We also ordered the pasta which came well well roasted veggies and garlic bread. We also HAD to try to poutine which yeah I know the gravy isn't vegetarian but shhhhh My husband has never had smoked meat but tried it and said it reminded him of corn beef but a little drier. He ate it all pretty quickly so it must have been somewhat enjoyable? The place was packed with locals when we arrived so it must be a local fave spot? I'm glad we tried it. read more

Had the smoke meat plate not as good as the picture meat was overcooked French fries were warm so far nothing beats Achoura deli

Atmosphere was great and I was promptly seated. I ordered the black cherry cola and all dressed poutine. Food was ready quickly. I thought the cola was filled via tap but it was just from a can. I was a bit confused with the food. The salami slice was obviously done hastily because all the pieces were together. The mushroom and veggies seem to be in over abundance compared to the poutine, taking the spotlight away from the poutine. Food taste was good, just that the presentation and layout were perplexing. read more

Great service. Poutine first timer. I'm not crazy about the gravy flavour and the cheese could have been melted more. I'll give it a 4 as the grease wasn't too much. read more

The food was good, service was tepid at best, and they played mediocre 80s music. We were going to order dessert but decided it was in our best interest to leave. I now understand why another couple ordered their sandwich and dessert at the same time. Over hyped. read more

This is one of my favorite diners in downtown Montreal. You can't go wrong with any of their smoked meat dishes. My personal favorite is reuben sandwich which comes in huge portion and can easily fill two people. I also love their cheesecake which is huge as well :D The stuffs are real nice and sweet and we always feel welcome there. Definitely recommend this place if you are around the area. read more

Fast service. Reasonable pricing. Food for days! Kids polished their plate. Would go back.

When in Montreal, you have to try their smoked meat. Dunn's is an old brand and the good thing about them is you can choose lean meat without extra charge. Takeout order took some time to be ready. The Smoked Meat Plate comes with 1/2 pound smoked meat, rye bread, fries, coleslaw and pickle. We upgraded the fries to Dunn's Poutine because why not! Personally I'm not a huge fan of smoked meat (too much salt), but this would be pretty good to share with others! read more

If you're looking for a spot after all the shenanigans mtl has to offer, come here and let your belly enjoy itself. Absolutely 5/5 when it comes to fast food after hours or any time of day. Love this place read more

When you walk in you get a very traditional diner feel. We got seated pretty quickly and got the food pretty quickly as well. We got the Dunn's Famous Poutine, potato skins, and the smoked meat sandwich with fries. The potato skins and smoked meat sandwich were my favorites. They were good but I wouldn't say they were extraordinary. We ordered a very potato heavy meal so select carefully when you choose your dishes. The best part were probably the fries that came with the smoked meat sandwich. I would say my experience here was pretty decent. read more

Needed to obviously indulge in Poutine while in Montreal and Dunn's was an easy option close to the hotel that was open for 24 hours. The service was a tad stiff, but being that the place is open 24/7, I don't blame if the guy was tired. Had the french onion soup and the Montreal smoked meat poutine. Loved the french onion - it was delicious with the melted cheese and bread and a tasty broth. The poutine was great too. Crispy fries, delicious gravy and tasty smoked meat. All in all - a solid option for poutine in Montreal. It's just fries with gravy, after all. read more

Dunn's - General Tao Poutine - Poutineries Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I got Dunn's smoked meat platter to go to take back to New Jersey and it was the best decision of my trip. I substituted the fries for poutine because I who doesn't need one last poutine fix before leaving. The poutine, for me, was really good, even for takeout. The fries were unfortunately soggy because it was sitting in the container for a bit but the gravy was perfectly seasoned and savory and the cheese curds were nice and melty. As for the smoked meat, I ate it the next day for lunch and it was still better reheated than the other smoked meat sandwich that I had fresh at another famous Montreal deli. I appreciated that they asked if you want lean or medium brisket (always opt for the medium) and they give you cole slaw, a pickle and mustard on the side. read more

my wife and I had dinner here based on door man at the Marriott. The service was outstanding. I went with the smoked meat, aka: corned beef, it was very good, tender and lots of flavor served with bread and hand cut fries. you could have made 2 big sandwiches with the amount of meat served. my wife had the burger and fries and she was very happy. read more

Summary: If you're a tourist and looking to try poutine and smoked meat of Montreal, Dunn's is a great place to start! Prices are a little high as it is pretty touristy but food is yummy! Would recommend to give it a try if you're visiting Montreal for the first time like me. My husband and I both ordered the Small smoked meat combo (6 oz smoked meat sandwich, side of fries, coleslaw, and a half pickle) for $16.50 CAD. We both replaced the fries for poutine for an extra $4 CAD. Their smoked meat is well seasoned, but not as good as its competitors. The side order of poutine was pretty big and it was pretty good, although this was my first time trying poutine so I don't have much to compare it to. Like I mentioned in my summary, I would recommend Dunn's to tourists coming through Montreal and wanting to try the infamous smoked meat sandwich and poutine for the first time, but there may be better places for both. The wait staff was great and attentive. We visited on a Friday night around 5pm, beating the dinner rush. read more

Dunn's - Le Petit combo, replaced fries with poutine - Poutineries Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Thank you fellow YELPERS for introducing us to Dunn's Famous! We arrived in Montreal after quite a delayed flight and were ravenously hungry lol and the fact that DF was open 24/7 made our decision so much easier. We walked over from our Hotel and were seated immediately and being that late it wasn't too crowded. Our server was warm and welcoming and made us feel comfortable from the get go. I came for their famous Poutine but on seeing the Chicken and Gravy Platter with the fries I was made in the shade lol The Wifey had the Pastrami Sandwich which she devoured and Dust had the Montreal smoked meat sandwich and Kev had the Dunn's Poutine and they loved their meals! I just wish we had more time in Montreal to come back here but we most definitely will when we're visiting again! read more

4.5. Second time coming on the way from/to nyc and overall just a very good experience. Can you compare the smoked meat to let's say Katz's in nyc? No, but the smoked meat sandwich is still very good. I like there are also a ton of options on the menu not just smoked meat. Service has always been great and you can tell everyone in there works really hard. Love that I always get a table without any wait. Our go to place for smoked meats when I want to relax at a table and not have to wait long or have to take away and eat in my car. read more

One of the classic spots in Montreal for a smoked meat sandwich. A large selection of poutine and sandwiches. I would say that I prefer Rubens or schwartz for the sandwiches, this is easily and underrated spot to go to if you are closeby read more

Dunn's initially wasn't in my plans. I have a list of restaurants that I want to try but most of the Montreal restaurants were outside of downtown, and I was needing something close to the Bell Centre. I was also craving poutine and after doing a quick search, Dunn's looked promising. It was really packed and I was fortunate to find a seat at the bar. I already knew what I came for but I quickly scanned the menu, just in case I saw something else that was appealing. I ordered their Dunn's Famous poutine. Being in Montreal, why wouldn't you get poutine with smoked meat? You'd be crazy not to honestly. Poutine is already good as it is. And Dunn's version is no exception. The fries were very tasty and perfectly cooked. Not too soggy or too crispy. Topped with a very delicious gravy and tasty cheese curds. But this version topped with smoked meat just went over the top. It was a huge portion you could probably get away with sharing it. But I was by myself so luckily for me I didn't have to share, but had the challenge of finishing it. If I'm ever back in town, I wouldn't hesitate returning. Their service was great. Prompt and extremely friendly. read more

Good was good and I enjoyed the vibe. Staff was great and had a good sense of humor. We enjoyed the food as well.

Checked this place while I was in the area and I love smoked meat but I much prefer Reubens. Came here in the afternoon, most of the restaurant was empty. Ordered the mini smoked meat sandwich with fries and requested no mustard on the sandwich. But guess what? Yes that's correct, the sandwich arrived with mustard. It wasn't even busy but somehow the chef still made an error. I couldn't even locate a server so I just ate it to correct the mistake and left disappointed. Oh and the smoked meat tasted more on the dry side as well so it wasn't that appealing. Left such a bad impression here. I wouldn't recommend especially with so many options for smoked meat in Montreal. Even if the restaurant is not busy, I think the servers still should be attentive to the customers that do decide to dine here. Sorry but I would not return. read more

Dunn's Famous is one of the few places in town that are open 24/7. I've never been! They're located next door to Dominion Square Tavern and have two other locations in town. We dropped in on a Monday (around 2:30am) and it was surprisingly busy. Our waitress was friendly and helpful for our massive group of 12. The menu is huge but I only had eyes on their smoked meat options. It's a given that you should try their speciality. - Le petit combo ($14.50) - small sandwich served on rye bread with fresh cut fries, coleslaw and dill. Small is an understatement; this is a filling meal. The sandwich was hefty with generous slices of smoked meat. Tender, fatty goodness; perfect after a late night out. The coleslaw was refreshing but the dill pickle was bad. The fries were okay but needed more time in the deep fryer. - Smoked meat fried rice ($14.00) - a fusion dish. There was smoked meat, bell peppers, mushrooms, broccoli and onions topped with diced tomatoes and shallots. Turns smoked meat was diced too finely but the tomatoes were refreshing to the palate. Decent. Solid late night downtown spot to grab food. Stick with the smoked meat sandwiches. 3.5 stars. read more

Excellent lunch. Quick service. Love the environment. Would come again next time in town.

Everything was just okay. I felt I spent more than I should have. I didn't dislike it, and might return to give it one more shot.

When I'm Montreal a "must do" for all carnivores is a smoked meat sandwich and why not go to a place that been around for decades. "Dunn's Famous Smoked Meat Sandwiches" are famous not just because of the sandwiches but because they were the first to defeat the French language sign laws that attempted to replace all English language signs with French. The harm it would have done to change the name to boeuf Marine which is a term no one including the Franco-phones used would have been absurd. I ordered the classic smoked meat sandwich. You can't go wrong with that. Just be prepared to open wide. Enjoy! read more

So. Much. Food!! I can't go to Montreal and NOT have smoked meat and poutine! We were here for the Grand Prix last weekend and had to stop in to Dunn's once again for our fill of deliciousness. We were seated immediately and the service was quick and efficient. I ordered the large smoked meat sandwich and upgraded to poutine. My husband got the Ruben and also upgraded to the poutine. Everything was so delicious and we received way more than we expected. This restaurant was recommended to me last year by a friend and it was so good we came back. It will definitely be a Grand Prix weekend staple! Love it. read more

Really solid place to come and eat with the family. Service was good and the place was pretty favorable to kids. I had a meat bowl and poutine fries. Everything is seasoned and cooked well.

Dunn's - Pouline - one of Montreal's staple dishes. Believe it or not it is good - the smoked meat is very very delicious - Poutineries Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I'm glad there's a restaurant that a family with kids can eat at that closes late in the heart of downtown Montreal. Although a little pricey like all other restaurants in downtown, they compensate their price with huge servings which can be shared with 2 people. They are part of a chain, where you can find other dunns restaurants in other areas. Salad - 3 1/2 stars - basic, but a whole big bowl full to be eaten as a meal or shared as a side salad. Smoked meat poutine - 3 1/2 stars - super huge serving of poutine, but was a bit too salty. Margarita - 4 stars - they make it sweet in Canada with a strong coconut flavor. Service - 4 stars - although only one waitress, food came decent time. Easy to find because we could see their huge vertical red lit sign from a block away, but because it's in the heart of Montreal, only street or paid parking lot around the area. Since we were staying at a hotel a block away, I'm glad they were open since most of the eating places in the area that open late were only bars. read more

I so want to give this place 5 Stars because my wife and I really enjoyed our time here. Our server was really friendly and helpful, my wife's Ruben was amazing! The only reason I can't give this review 5 stars is because Dunns is supposed to be known for their Poutine and Mine was awful. Maybe I should have got the original instead but it was soggy and very little flavor. Maybe just an off day. We will definitely be back to give it another shot. read more

This place was cool and kind of small. We wanted something to get a feel for Canadian food. So of course we had to try the poutine. I got the GENERAL TAO one and it was tasty, my daughter got the DUNN'S FAMOUS one but the gravy wasn't really that good but the meat was fine and flavored. The strawberry cheese one was thee best! Now that alone was a 5 star, that's a must try. The server was very nice! read more

Fast moving place. We arrived at 7:00PM and were seated immediately at one of the few remaining free tables. Service was fast and efficient. We went for some of the sandwich classics and poutine!

Omg the Montreal smoked meat is as good as it gets here. The meat was moist and not overly salty, and I got the medium fat and it was perfect. Imagine if the corned beef and the pastrami had the perfect baby. It was that good. Service was good, and our drinks were refilled without asking. The poutine was good, but the smoked meat was even better... did I mention it was amazingly good? During our stay in Montreal, we tried 4 other places who supposedly had great smoked meats. I would come back to Dunn's in a heartbeat, and best of all... they are open 24/7 read more

From what I can see, Dunn's is a localized version of a TGIFriday's which is perfectly fine. They have several locations around Montreal and their claim to fame is smoked meats. Think New York style pastrami. Of course like a TGIFriday's, they have a ton of other menu items. This location also happens to be 24/7 - another plus. I don't especially enjoy breakfast foods, so a full menu restaurant at 8am is perfect for me. I was planning on getting Schwartz later for smoked meat (think Katz Deli) so I opted for an Uber driver recommendation of hot chicken. This isn't the Nashville version so don't confuse the two. It's essentially a shredded chicken sandwich drenched in Salisbury steak gravy and topped with peas. Be warned, not everyone will enjoy this sandwich. I personally did. It reminded me of childhood when I religiously ate microwaved HungryMan Salisbury steak TV dinners. The waitress was also very attentive. I'd come back again to try the rest of the menu. read more

Dunn's - Poutine - Poutineries Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Smoked meat poutine = the only way to kick off a trip to Montreal. Luckily our hotel was around the corner from Dunn's and we were able to make this happen as soon as we arrived. Dunn's is a casual spot - basically like a hybrid diner / deli. The menu had a variety of different types of sandwiches, poutine and grill food. Because Montreal is known for poutine and smoked meat we opted for a big bowl of poutine topped with smoked meat. This wasn't the best pastrami that I've ever had, but was still delicious and tasted great mixed with the poutine. I also ordered a crock of french onion soup which was topped with tons of cheese and had great flavor. Nothing better when the high is below zero degrees! We washed everything down with some cold Molson (okay, if you can't tell we were excited to be in Canada) and were in and out in under an hour. Overall, Dunn's is a solid pick if you want a fast hot lunch in Montreal. read more
