I've been going to this restaurant 1-2x a week for the past couple of months and I'm sick and tired…read moreof their bullshit. I take my orders to go as I live 15 minutes away and I had to drive back because my food was inedible TWICE in the last 3 weeks. The first time, one of the employees put about an inch of relish on my burger, making it a soggy mess. The second time, my burger was raw (the entire inside of the patty was pink). The first time, the employee (blonde ladie, maybe a manager) offered me a refund and a new burger, I declined the refund since mistakes can happen and they were very apologetic. The second time, they just made me a new burger without offering me a refund (different employee this time) I would have actually taken a refund this time because I was very pissed off. But hey, I guess I should be grateful that I got a new burger with my (now cold) poutine, and having wasted an hour driving back and forth. Especially for $25. How does a restaurant get away with being this inconsistent? When the food is good, it's great, but it's subpar 20% of the time, and 5-10% of the time it's inedible. For this price point, this is absolutely unacceptable. They lost me as a customer.

I was visiting the nearby Atwater market and couldn't resist stopping in for a pre-dinner snack…read moreafter having heard praise for its poutine. The space was completely empty around 6 PM -- this is a small, local greasy spoon that opens at 4 pm but really does most of its business in the late night/morning hours. The poutines are offered in five different sizes ranging from mini to familiale -- I got the mini ($8.50, tax included) and it was the perfect portion for one (particularly if pairing with another item), with just the right fries, sauce, and cheese curd ratios. This was actually my first time trying an Italian (bolognese) poutine and I loved it and may very well gravitate towards it again in the future. Traditional poutine gravies can be very hit or miss to me and often too salty, but I really enjoyed the acidity from the tomatoes and the rich, comforting flavors of the ground meat in the sauce. The fries were warm and tender, while the curds had both good flavor and texture. I'd asked for the sauce on the side because I meant to take this to the waterfront to enjoy, but stopped a few feet from the restaurant to sample at peak freshness, and ended up demolishing it there in the space of a couple of minutes (including every last drop of sauce). Cash only and not much to speak of in terms of service, but your order is prepared right in front of you and it was nice to watch the woman behind the counter carefully package my takeout order and layer the fried-to-order fries and curds. Essentially, this isn't the kind of gourmet poutine you'll see recommended on a bunch of travel blogs, but it is pure comfort food, and Restaurant AA delivers on all the aspects you'd want it to.

We ordered to-go at around 10:15pm and the food was ready for pick up 25 min later. My favorites were La Porc Effiloché and La Montréalaise. The maple bbq sauce in La Porc Effiloché was chef's kiss! I'm not a fan of cheese blocks, so their classic La Frite Alors was my #3, but still very good. The poutines could've used more sauce across the board, but considering how late and hungry we were, they were still DELICIOUS!

The service is lightning fast and amicable and the prices are extremely affordable.

My boyfriend and I wanted to grab a quick lunch before work, so we ordered two hot dogs and fries. The hot dogs were really good, and I actually loved how they serve them in little cardboard trays instead of wrapping them in paper. It keeps everything together and makes them way less messy to eat. The fries were fresh and crispy, with a slightly sweeter taste than I'm used to, but I enjoyed them. The restaurant was also really clean inside. The layout is kind of unique you can sit right by the counter, head over to another dining area with booths and tables, or even go upstairs where there's even more seating. I wasn't expecting it to be that big! Definitely glad we finally stopped in. I'll be back to try more of the menu.

EASY 5 stars. Even…read moreif my poutine had just been 'solid', I would probably award 5 stars for the relative quality and value of this place. Everything is made to order, and you can get a freshly grilled burger (fresh meat, not frozen) with toppings of your choice for less than $5. I think I only paid another $1.50 to have a double patty. Lots of options, for example getting a steamed hot dog for less than $2, having it grilled for about 50 cents more, or even a chili dog. Everyone I was with loved the burgers and hot dogs ordered. But it's called 'La Pataterie' for a reason. The fries (from potatoes if you follow the name) were easily some of the best I've ever had. And for the price there isn't even competition. Absolutely perfect crispy texture, and pillowy soft in the middle. They taste like they were twice-fried, almost Belgian-style. There is also a nice sweetness to the potato too. Real cheese curds for the poutine and though the gravy wasn't reaching the same heights as the fries, it was still good nonetheless. But to illustrate how good the fries were, my wife and I put in an order for fries alone after we shared a poutine. I can't think of any time or place I've done that before, but the fries were just that good. I only happened to come here since we were returning from the botanical gardens and it came up on a search. It's not necessarily a hidden gem as it's quite popular, but if this was more central, it would almost certainly find itself of 'must visit' lists, and it's probably a good thing that things stay the way they are.
