Hotdog
Alexandra L.

Why not 5? Burger bread hard/stale like. BUT poutine, which is what ppl probably go there for was definitely 5/5 very good. Hotdog not bad

the menu for the restaurant

Hands down, the best fries in Victoria! They're just as good, if not better, than in La belle province, where I live. They make a mean poutine (see pic) and the steamed hotdogs are addictive. It's pretty much a take out place and you don't go for the ambiance although the atmosphere is actually pretty authentic of your typical pataterie.

Next bike trip involves a stop at La Belle!

This poutine has got game! The staff are great, the location is excellent (grab a bite at the local park), and, as I said in the opening line... this poutine is as close to the real thang as you'll get around here - just awesome! You could call it, gamechanging, even!

Smoked meat poutine and hot dog poutine

This place was freakin BOOM. We arrived about 30 mins to closing time, and the place was packed. We ordered 2 medium sizes, and it was really generous portion sizes. Really delicious and worth the wait!

These photos are true to the experience. The smoked meat sandwich was excellent!

Friendly as all get out! Walk in the door and the staff were ready to help. Being here for the first time they helped me decide what would be best with my large group. They even filled our water bottles for us. The steamies were just right for my little ones and the price was right. The slaw on them is made in house and is perfectly sweet. The smoked meat was delicious, pickle included. We went with the Rob Special which was poutine with chicken and mushrooms. Little unorthodox but it was solid although a little light on gravy. You need to adjust your eating pattern to make sure you have gravy through the entire large. The few letdowns were minor. First off they were out of Spruce Beer. Popular I guess. Second the space of fairly small so large groups at a little hard to seat. Finally, they are the epitome of the greasy spoon. The interior is well worn. Where they cook and where you eat is clean but the rest, well... Still absolutely worth a visit.

We are French-Canadians who visit every year from Southern California. No trip is complete without our Tuesday special visit to Matty and La Belle Patate. If you've ever been to Top Dog in Berkeley you will get the same vibe, only Quebequois-style. I have had streamies, poutine, and Spruce Beer (it's a soda that tastes like drinking a Christmas tree). It's always the same and we love it. It's a short drive from Victoria on Esquimalt road. It's authentic as it gets and family run too. If you've never had poutine, it's very filling. I recommend plain curds and gravy in medium size. Xo

The big smoke meat Poutine! I've eaten dozens and can taste it just by looking at the photo.

This is the only place to go for Poutine in Western Canada. Awesome poutine made by with fresh cut fries, super squeaking curds and brown sauce. You'll see the same guy and his crew there almost always. I always have the Poutine with Smoke Meat and a Spruce Beer along with one or two All-Dressed Steamies. Go with a real appetite and stuff yourself crazy. The burgers are supposed to be incredible too but I cannot say no to the Poutine and Steamies in order to make room. I have been going there for years and the owner remembers me every time whether it has been months or days since I've seen him last. He asked about all of the guys I work with too as we would regularly drive across town for a special lunch. If you haven't eaten here - Go! Go NOW! La Belle Patate Rocks!

Poutine!

Most authentic poutine and steamies this side of the Rocky Mountains. You will not be disappointed. Take it from a former Montréalais.

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen - 8 pieces of chicken ($25.99): yum yum!!

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen

2.9(8 reviews)

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE For those used to the Popeyes…read morelocations in the US, the menu is slightly different and the chicken pieces a little smaller - other than that, it's nearly identical and great if you like the taste of Popeyes chicken! === 2. FOOD We got the usual order of eight pieces of all dark-meat chicken for $26, half spicy and half not. The flavour profile is identical to that of the US-based Popeyes locations. The price is a little higher than that of the US, and the sides and desserts are a little different, but it's the same otherwise. === 3. SERVICE It's always busy every time we come here; however, the staff seem to be on top of things. Waiting for your takeout order is a little strange though, as there's not much of a waiting area without intruding on dine-in customers. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It matches the current corporate requirements for decor; there are a few tables around the sides of the restaurant and you're likely best to keep your group to medium or small in size. It's been a little hot/stuffy every time we've come here, which differ from other Popeyes locations in Canada and the US, so that may need attention. Wheelchairs and baby strollers fit easily. Parking can be tricky as the ground level of the Tuscany Village complex is typically busy - so good luck or look for parking underground.

I've only eaten the chicken once from this place but thought it was really quite good.read more
