After landing in Montréal, I was so hungry and craving a nice plate of poutine -- an iconic…read moreCanadian specialty. So I popped on Yelp to look for a spot near by with great reviews. La Banquise wasn't far from where we were staying and I discovered that it was a favorite of locals! I mean, at 11pm the place was packed to the brim! A very promising sign. Once we stepped inside this cozy establishment, it almost felt like a diner, with fun painted tables. Our table had Elsa & Anna on it! Their menu is outstanding, offering plenty of different loaded poutines. Poutine is typically fries, gravy, and cheese curds. So I decided on La Scooby, which had meats, a Caesar salad dressing, and fried pickles on top! The flavors all worked together so well! This was my first poutine experience and by far my favorite. Merci, La Banquise!!

The smoked meat sandwich is what they're known for and it came out tender and juicy. The classic Jewish deli treat: a brisket, dry-cured for 14 days in a blend of peppercorn, garlic, coriander, and mustard seed, then slow-smoked, steamed, and hand-sliced onto fresh rye bread. Pair it with the tang of sauerkraut and a dill pickle and you're in business. Pro tip: go with the "super combo" large smoked meat sandwich, upgrade the fries to poutine, and just share that with your partner in crime. It's perfect! I was on the hunt for Dunn's black cherry drink to complete the meal, but they had run out. Hopefully you'll have better luck ordering one.

Lots of good outdoor squat spot, eat on the curb. The poutine was the classic that you'd expect in Montreal. Big curds, decent gravy, decent fries. The burger was alright. They use nice soft buns. It's not a huge poutine. Conclusion- it's decent. Extra points, they didn't use AI for their signs to portray their food like most of the food shops on that strip

Caramel Milkshake ($8.95). 2. Montrealer Signature Poutine ($16.95) with Smoked Meat on the side. 3. Farmer's Delight Signature Poutine ($16.95). Both Poutines were good and the portions were big. Three of us shsred two Poutines. The Smoked Meat was especially good. We ordered it on the side because we were not sure if my son would like it; he loved it! The customer service was good. At the end, they gave my son an very long freezee, which he also enjoyed! There is a bar so they serve alcoholic drinks. Even their milkshakes can have alcohol for an extra $5. You can also play their board games or play Mario Kart on the Switch 2! There were many tables. The decorations were nice. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is not wheelchair accessible. There are two gender-neutral washrooms, but they are not wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. There are two high chairs for little children. Review 2025-242
