Food: Got the smoked meat poutine and really enjoyed it…read more The fries were crispy, the gravy was flavorful, and the smoked meat added a nice savory touch. It was very filling. Good portion for a quick meal and definitely worth trying if you like poutine. Service: Very quick and straightforward. You order on the screen, wait for your food, and grab it when it's ready. Perfect for a quick stop! Ambiance: It's a small stand/cart with shared outdoor seating alongside the other food stands. Very casual and more of a grab-and-go setup!

Very good poutine, possibly the best that I've had in Toronto…read more The fries were really great... loved the taste and texture. The poutine was a little sweet though... not sure if it was the fries or something else. We tried the original, and the smoked meat version. The original was better imo. Limited street (paid) parking. The restaurant itself is more like a food stall, so there is no seating, but they recommend eating at the community center, which is right next door. We elected to do this, and there were a few tables available fortunately.

OMG what's not to love!?…read more The first time I tried Smoke's Poutinerie was at a kids festival at the Markham Fairgrounds. Crispy fresh warm fries, the gravy is insanely good and full of flavour and it all comes together with their cheese curds evenly topped! Once I found about this location, I have gone back at least half a dozen times since. My youngest asks for it at least once a month. I just wish they would open a Markham location. The options for toppings and add-ones is endless! Our first visit to this location my youngest was curious about trying bacon with his poutine, they were so kind and (free of charge) gave him a small cup of bacon to add in to his poutine to see if he would like it. This is his usual poutine every time we go back. Generous portions, fries are amazing, fast service and a cozy place to eat in!

After my bad experience w the Niagara Falls location, we decided to hit up this location in Vaughn…read more We ordered the Philly Cheesesteak Poutine & Pulled Pork Poutine. In my opinion, if fries are going to be the only thing offered, it better be the best fries ever, and sadly, it wasn't. The fries tasted a bit stale, although it felt like it was made to order? I think it has to do something w the fry quality. Flavor overall felt lacking and the dish was salty in weird ways. A plus is that the curds were melted, but other hand that, I didn't care for it. For the Philly Cheesesteak, I was disappointed to see yellow cheese sauce too?? I felt like it was supposed to be provolone or something more reminiscent of an actual Philly. Overall, I've had better poutine and I was told by locals this was the best Toronto had to offer....I probably wouldn't come back to eat this unfortunately. The service was good though and the girl who helped us was really nice.

Night poutine cravings hit hard on Friday night. Ordered…read morePhilly cheesesteak poutine (large, gravy on the side) $15.99. Thought the gravy itself was kind of light and lacking (the consistency was good!), but the taste completed when mixed with salted fries. Huge portion. The fries came with beef, sautéed green peppers, onions and mushrooms. The beef was melty tender. The mushrooms were from cans not fresh. The fries were not fresh-cut. The cheese was "cheese curd" - which I appreciated, but not as squeeky. However, $15.99 for this size/toppings is quite reasonable. Recommend to order the gravy on the side to enjoy the crunchy texture of each ingredient. Overall quality is slightly above the average, but when I am looking for "junk food sensation" rather than authentic true poutine's delicacy, then this place definitely satisfies my needs - actually perfectly served this time. Comforted.

We were originally going to go to Pai, but since there was a line out the door because we didn't make a reservation, we ate here. The interior was fun, with the original owner's face on many different things, and there was a loud-ish mix of rock and early heavy metal. Apparently, this spot is a chain, and they used to have some US locations, but I'm not surprised they closed. We got some Cauliflower Bites for 5.49 CAD to begin. These were decent and, unlike our poutine choices, not overly salty. The little bits of fried cauliflower could have used a bit more flavor, but they worked for texture, and both of us eventually added some pieces to our poutines. My poutine of choice was the Prime Beef Deluxe, with ground beef, mushrooms, caramelized onions, and green peas, for 13.99 CAD. As a whole, the poutine was rather nasty, with the whole thing feeling wet. The watery gravy lacked flavor compared to the couple of other examples I've had before. The fries, even though they were hot and looked crispy, were limp and potatoey, and they were getting limper by the second because of the bad gravy. The cheese curds were decent, but there weren't that many of them. The beef didn't help how wet the dish was, nor did the frozen peas, with the only decent parts being the caramelized onions and mushrooms. I had maybe 60/70% of it, leaving many very wet fries at the end. The other person had the Buffalo grilled chicken with grilled chicken, buffalo sauce, creamy ranch dressing, and green onions, which was a dollar more. From the little bit I tried, the chicken was certainly better quality, though still a bit gummy. The buffalo sauce had a little bit of heat. The whole thing was extremely overdressed with the sauce, dressing, and gravy, and he had maybe half of it at most. This meal was terrible. They were both a salty mess with bad fries and worse gravy. I've had better poutine in NYC, and there are barely any Canadian spots here. Go here if you're high or drunk and therefore lack proper taste buds.

They were selling each pound of wings for $5 each (regular price $15/lb). IT WAS SOOOOOOO BUSY. The parking lot isn't big by any means and the line wrapped around the corner of the plaza! I got there around 11:20-ish (slightly after they opened) and the line already extended to Bueokae, two units down. I waited around 1.5 hrs approx to get my food (around 1 hr in line before being able to order and then another 30 min before my order was ready). Brandon, the gentleman manning the front of house looked like his soul left his body because there were so many ppl. But he was still serving customers with a smile. I saw my mans taking red bull out of the mini fridge behind him and chugging it LOL. I would say it was worth the wait for my food. There's no seating inside in the restaurant (purely a takeout joint) but when I opened my wings back home, my wings were still kinda crispy even under all the sauce (especially the honey garlic). Messy chicken: Would definitely order this again. It's their signature flavour. Reminded me of butter chicken with ranch and cheese on top. Sooo good. Chicken honey (honey garlic): These babies were still crispy when I lifted the lid! I was able to see chunks of garlic running throughout the sauce too which leads me to believe they make the sauce in-house instead of buying it. The Clucker: Ok so this was my least fave. The skin was kinda soggy on these and the ranch didn't really do much for me on these ones. It was also not as flavourful as the other two. Because it was customer appreciation day, each person was limited to 3lbs only. I kinda wish I went with mango habanero instead of the Clucker. The wings were quite big and plump. None of that puny wing bs. No cheating or cutting corners it seems like. The guy bringing orders out of the kitchen had a smile on his face the whole time and he gives you a lot of extra napkins which is great (as a finger food he understood the assignment lol). I will definitely be back in the future to try some of their other flavours since appreciation day restricted ppl to 5 flavours. Some of their flavours I've never seen at other wing spots. P.S. My brother tried to grab wings late at night a lil past 9pm with his fiancé but they already sold out of wings!

Sumi Fernando, the owner, worked 17 years at Schwartz's in Montreal, including head cutter.

The combo also comes with seasoned fries, coleslaw, and a whole pickle. Service I came mid afternoon and it wasn't busy. Service was prompt, and the food came out quickly.

I think my rating would be way higher if more effort was put into the construction of the sandwich to complement the pastrami... Like the bread and toppings just didn't do anything to help the meat (which was delicious on its own). I do like that you can choose the kind of mustard you want as well as the cut of pastrami (lean, fatty, both, etc.) For a simple and quick pastrami sandwich, it does the job but I don't think it's worth the Michelin recommendation... This spot gets hyped up EVERYWHERE online but I think that just comes from lack of abundance for this type of food. If you're willing to make a trip for a WAY better fresh pastrami/smoked meat experience, head on over to When The Pig Came Home at the Junction in TO. You won't be disappointed.
