That being said, probably some of the best poutine I've ever had - especially with how the chicken and gravy melds together with the fries oh so well. Plus, the chicken was oh so juicy and freshly made, as you can see the staff churning out the poultry fresh from the spit. Would totally go again if I'm ever on the area, as despite how busy and tight it is, it's a rather lovely food experience.

Absolutely solid poutine in Montreal! There is usually a wait for a reason but it's definitely…read moreworth it. When we visited, the line wrapped around the corner of the shop and it was about a 30 minute wait for us. There is one counter to order and you pay at the end of the line up when your order is complete. There are some tables inside if you want to dine in. When I got the poutine, I was surprised by the portion size. Depending on your appetite, I'd say it can be shared between 2-4 people. They have some pastries at the front counter as well. Note: There is also a back side door if you need to meet the rest of your party that is already inside - so it doesn't look like you're cutting the line! :)

TL;DR/The Short Version: Casual Korean eatery. Great combos…read morewith lots of variety. Everything was tasty. The Long Version: My husband and I went here for lunch. I got the fried chicken combo ($16.99) and my husband got the beef combo ($16.99). We requested no sesame seeds for our food and they accommodated by not sprinkling sesame seeds on the rice, japchae or beef, but they forgot that one of the fried chicken sauces has sesame seeds in it, so I had to give my husband that piece. We were going to share anyway, so it wasn't a big deal for me. The Fried Chicken Combo came with 3 pieces of fried chicken, each one a different flavour: original, sweet and spicy, and soy garlic. The sweet and spicy sauce has sesame seeds in it. Since I can't eat sesame seeds but can tolerate slight contamination, I didn't bring it up and just gave that piece to my husband. Although in retrospect I should have alerted them for them to be more aware for someone else who might have a more severe issue. Both combos came with japchae, rice, 2 dumplings, and coleslaw. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. It was great. I liked both the original and the soy garlic. Hubby liked the sweet and spicy. The beef was tender and flavourful. And I liked that it was lean meat and not gristly. The dumplings were deep-fried and had pork and vegetables in it. The rice was nicely steamed and slightly sticky which I liked. The japchae was flavourful and had shiitake mushrooms, carrots, bell peppers and onions in it. It was little too oily for my preference, but I still enjoyed it. The combos also came with a can of soda or a bottle of water. My husband got a Coca Cola and I got a bottle of water, which I took to go to drink during my shopping adventures after lunch, since we were given tap water with our meal. Service was courteous and efficient. Lots of indoor seating with televisions playing K-pop music videos in the dining room. The restaurant is down a flight of stairs, so might be a problem for those with mobility issues. Review #18 (2025)

We got our food right away and everything was hot. They were also SO NICE. Ambience is also very homey: they have a karaoke machine in the corner! (Very Filipino home type of vibes which is fun) Fried chicken is the star of the show here. It's perfectly juicy, crispy on the outside and the seasoning they use is making me salivate as I think of it right now. So good! The spaghetti was alright - I thought it would be like Filipino spaghetti but it's less like that. You can also get it with fries! It's super awesome because they also have buko pandan, and it is NOT TO MISS! Please order it - well worth it! Overall, I think this is one of my new favourite gems in Montreal. Super sweet staff, great food, homey vibes. What's not to love?!

This restaurant reminds me of the types of places I used to go to with my parents and grandparents. It just brought back a sense of nostalgia. We got here right when they opened on a Sunday morning and were one of the first tables there. When we told the servers that we were visiting from the US and that Chalet came highly recommended, they took pity on us (rightfully so) and then gave us a 5 star experience. We got the chicken special that came with fries, baked potato, Cole slaw and chicken soup and you cannot forget about the gravy! I'm not a Cole slaw conossieur but it was some of the Cole slaw I've ever had. Very finely shredded and the perfect combo of tangy and sweet. The chicken was perfectly roasted and I was so sad that I was getting full off of all the homestyle sides that I couldn't eat all the chicken. But the gravy? Good god that gravy, it's been weeks and I'm still thinking about it. I'm not even a big gravy person but this was savory heavy with a kick at the end. They gave us multiple cups, one for dipping and one for slipping! Come for the food and service, this place is full of regulars and appreciate the hospitality from our servers (I believe Janet or Janice and another friendly lady!)

New in the neighbourhood, located right at St Laurent and Fairmount. Very cute small shop…read more I was passing by when I noticed they were having a grand opening event! First 50 customers got free chicken: spicy or regular. I was really happy to try it! Perhaps the chicken offered that day wasn't representative of what is usually offered? We tried one spicy and one regular. The spicy wasn't too spicy, so it was nice with some hot sauce. The breading was very thick and crispy and the chicken meat was quite tender and juicy, if it was there. I found that my chicken pieces were primarily just the fried outside, with very little chicken actually underneath. Thus, since there wasn't much actual chicken meat beneath the fried (though delicious) topping, I have to give it a solid 3.5. I may be inclined to try again and hope there's more of that juicy chicken beneath it!

Thank god I found it because one large chicken + chorizo poutine can feed my hungry wife and I and we even have leftovers! The fries are fresh, crispy, and the gravy is made with drippings of their own rotating rotisserie chicken. The chorizo sausage is barbecued to perfection. Did I mention they give you a lot of food for the price!? They also have a beautiful bakery with Bolas, strawberry cheesecake, and other fresh-made bakery items. They also have great service, with friendly cashiers, and the quality of food is 6 out of 5 stars. It's my favorite place and I come here almost once a week. They are passionate about their food and generous, and if you don't feel like paying up-the-arse for delicious Portuguese chicken Romados is the place for you. It's homey, they have spicy and mild Piri Piri sauce to choose from, the fries are tasty but not too salty, Chicken Salad is really delicious, and furthermore, they have family options, rice, potatoes, and you can order a half or quarter chicken, as well as other options like soup and barbecue pork (also very good). Thank you Romados!

I visited their second day after opening and wasn't informed that it was cash only until after I ordered which was an annoyance.

The food itself was quality and tasty! I tried the wings (jerk) which came with an order of fries (they actually looked like potatoes, not frozen!). It was sliiiightly pricey ($12 where I would expect it to maybe be $10) but not enough that it would push me away from ordering.
