I can't believe I'm saying this as someone who has enjoyed top line barbecue in Texas, North Carolina & Vegas, but this place had some very, very good brisket. Good brisket is hard to come by & I have never found it anywhere in Canada except here in Laval of all places. The service was excellent & the place is very clean. read more

Bière gratuite pour l'enregistrement, la nourriture était plutôt bonne même si la poitrine était un peu sèche, les côtes étaient incroyables. Et la fleur d'oignon était assez savoureuse. la note basse est le résultat d'un service médiocre. ils ont littéralement pris une heure pour apporter mon entrée à ma table. Free beer for check in, food was pretty good although the brisket was a little dry, the ribs were amazing. And the onion blossom was quite tasty. the low rating is the result of poor service. they literally took an hour to bring my entree to my table. P.S- If you are soft the lack of censorship in the music may offend you, as some racial slurs in english have a completely different meaning in french. read more

I have been ranting and raving about this place since our last yelp event and finally was in the neighbourhood so dropped in for a early dinner. We were greeted by a nice guy named pascale who led us right to the bar section and gave us a booth. As soon as I checked in I had the option to use my free molson Canadian beer when I bought a entree so why not ? We both got two to share, the wings & pickles. Both were good but I would pick Alabama white sauce next time instead of the blue cheese one that comes with it. For drinks we both love bourbon so why not a pitcher of the bourbon lemonade. It was good not to strong and pascale came by to fill us up when ever it looked half empty. Great service. For the main we shared the beef rib for 35$. Last time I had it it blew my Mind and this time it did the same thing. There's no place I know in Montreal where you can get such a hearty slab of meat for that price. It was very good and exactly what the doctor ordered. I ended up using my gift card I won for the bloody Cesar contest and our waiter was actually there and got to taste the 3 finalist cocktails which I didn't remember but it was nice that he remembered. I love this place they really have a great staff and I'm dying to take the classes next spring ! read more

So my friend and I were so hungry, she decided to go to Rubs. I regret the minute i stepped inside of this pub, we took the "fleur d'onion at first, it wasn't that bad until I felt a stomach pain, it felt as if I have drank a whole bottle of oil. The chicken plater came it looked so delicious, unfortunately the "fried chicken" wasn't even crispy it was soft as if the chef dropped it in water and picked it up right away lol! The service was REALLY slow, at a point the bar tender came and ask if we did get the "fleur d'onion" yet And we were like " nope" She was surprised. The two stars are for the spicy fries!!! The seasonning was tasty, like a Tandori spice, at least something was good! Oh and by the way, when the waiter came back at the end and ask if everything was okay and if we wanted to take the rest as a take away, my friend said "no sorry we did not like it" she asked why we said the chicken was not good and was not crispy... HER response was " oh but why didnt you tell me, we would have put it in the frier " my friend was fuming, like IT IS CALLED FRIED chicken!!!! Anyway I am still not feeling well, too heavy!!!!!! read more

I typically don't eat a lot of barbecue foods due to a weird fear I have of bones but previously in the day the decision had been made to eat here. When you arrive the restaurant is quite big and there's lots of comfortable seating. The menu is huge and there are so many things you can order it's hard to find just one thing because of this my group of 4 decided to get the everything platter which came with brisket ribs pulled pork half a chicken and 3 different sides and sauces. This gave us a really good taste of the classic barbecue options and we had plenty left over to take home. Although most of the food was good the pulled pork and the brisket were the best things on the plate and if your not super hungry getting either one of those items on there own are a great choice! When it came to the sides I was hoping the Mac and cheese would be out of this world but to be honest it fell short on taste the sweet potatoes and grilled veggies are better options in my opinion. read more

Best BBQ in town. The food portions are fantastic and well priced. The service is great and friendly

Went there twice with my mother. Truly tasty meaty foods but way too heavy and greasy to my taste. Huge American size dishes too. It's a pub so expect it to be noisy. But if you truly like Texan rib pub food, you will be served! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Gave the restaurant a chance we waited a half hour not one waitress came by to ask if we even wanted a drink. I realize that there is a shortage of staff but there were 3 waitresses and a hostess and bartenders. so there was enough for the people there. After waiting a half hour Took our coats and left but went to the hostess and said that it was taking a long time and her reply "oh sorry". Not really caring that we were leaving and not happy. Anyhow not ever going there again and telling people to beware of the place. So hope this helps read more

My husband and I had dinner at RUBS American BBQ recently and I have to say, it was pretty good. The prices and portions remind me of America! In other words, reasonable prices and large portions. I had the Pulled Chicken Tacos ($15) and my husband got the Smoked Salmon ($19). My tacos came with 2 sides and I ordered fries and coleslaw. They accidentally gave me sweet potato fries instead of regular fries, but hey I didn't complain because I also like sweet potato fries (and they are usually an extra $3). Free upgrade, woo hoo! :) The tacos were stuffed with meat and cheese. There was so much meat in there; it was pretty awesome. They were tasty too. The pulled chicken was tender and smoky. The only thing I was slightly disappointed with was that the soft taco shells were made of flour instead of corn. They did hold up well though and it wasn't a soggy mess. I got 3 tacos with my order and they were huge. I gave my husband an entire taco and I was still full (at most places, if I gave away 1/3 of my meal, I'd be left pretty hungry). The coleslaw was vinaigrette based and not mayo based, which I liked. The sweet potato fries were good. They were not battered, which I appreciated. My husband's dish automatically came with smoked vegetables and his choice of 1 side. He chose regular fries and received regular fries. I had some of his salmon and it was good, although it didn't have a strong smoked flavour. The vegetables he got were bell peppers, corn, asparagus and zucchini. I had a piece of bell pepper and it was good, although a bit too oily. I had some of his fries and they were good too. They are also not battered and were fried to golden perfection. Our server was nice and he was attentive. Decor is typical of mega-restaurants. Overall, I thought the food was good, and we got a lot of food for what we paid. I would come back, although I'd probably go to their Montreal location since I'm hardly ever in Laval. read more

Best ribs ever! I like ribs but it usualy not the first meal I will try in a restaurant because I've had bad experience, but just with the smell from the parking lot I knew what i was having. My girlfriend and I share a the fried onion(10$) and the full plate of ribs (30$) with the fries and mac'n cheese replacement (extra 3$). And that was more food than we could eat. The onion is probably best to share with at least 4 people but it was soooo good. Perfectly season and battered and delightfully crispy. The ribs were just melting off the bones and had that perfectly caramelized edge. Mac'n cheese was good. But next to such grandiose food I expected a little more, but perhaps my palate was already saturated. And the fries were real potato fries, but we left most of the them on the plate because you know priorities! And thanks to the yelp coupon I got a free molson beer which they gave me a glass from the tap instead of a bottle but it was fine by me. read more

RUBS American BBQ - Rib plate $16.97 Special! Yummy! - Barbeque Near Me - Laval, Quebec

When I heard Fumoir Rubs was opening near to my house, I practically fell off my chair. Who can blame me, right? A southern, Americana BBQ styled menu in Laval? I can count those who offer this in Laval with the fingers of my hand. So off to the review, after 2 visits, had to make sure, see? *squints eyes* First visit was during a weekday lunch with a friend, no line-up at noon, got a "banquet" in a quiet corner and ordered the pulled pork burger, with side fries and 'apple' coleslaw. The burger was HUGE and more importantly, AMAZING. I've had pulled pork countless times in my life but this was probably the best pulled pork burger I've eaten in awhile, if not ever. Did I mention it was HUGE? I could barely pick the beast up and take it out of its fat misery. The side fries were a bit disappointing and the 'apple' coleslaw didn't really taste like either apple nor coleslaw. It wasn't terrible but not for me. Either way, after the burger, I didn't have any more space. The price tag was reasonable and the service very efficient. I got my meal within 10 minutes and my drink in 2 minutes. All in all a perfect 5 star experience. The next visit was a few mere days later with wife and friends on a Saturday night. As I bought my infant with me, our visit was in mid-afternoon, before the possible Saturday night rush. We were placed in the back with similar families and children, a smart and efficient way the staff took care of business to segregate guests accordingly. As a new parent, the last thing I want to do is annoy other patrons and with similar patrons all on the same side of the restoraunt, the other patrons without children can be left in peace. This time I went with the St-Louis ribs, my friend went with the Beef ribs and we decided to share them. The food arrived after 25 minutes and I got lucky enough to have the same waiter who provided once again more than adequate service. He was obviously rushed but he took care of us and got tipped handsomely (I hope he felt that way) for his efforts. As a rib man, I like many types of ribs and know my ribs and the St-Louis ribs looked impressive when they arrived but someway, somehow, I felt neutral about them. Maybe it was the sauce or the fatty cut about them, I didn't particularly care for it. The Beef ribs were slightly better but still not my cup of tea. This time I went with the side sweet potato fries ($2 surcharge) and the standard coleslaw. The sweet potato fries were exceptional and loved them. The coleslaw wasn't for me. We ordered dessert (cheesecake) and a cappuccino and they were both very good. I hope they try to expand the selection of desserts in the future by 1-2. My wife was disappointed the mac-n-cheese burger wasn't available and went with the normal burger which she found decent but nothing to write home about. All in all, a good experience. Will be back. read more

Let me get this out of the way first: Any restaurant that upon being seated offers you "Bar Bacon" instead of bread is fucktits awesome. Which is what this place does. What is "Bar Bacon" you ask? Just incredibly spiced fried pieces of bacon for your munching pleasure. Yeah. What else is good? How about a ghost pepper Bloody Caesar? Or stupidly big, tasty & tender beef ribs? What about some great beans as a side? Yeah. Go here. But come hungry, because they serve you "holiday at grandma's house" sized plates. read more

Decent first experience! Solid 3.5 stars. Service was ridiculously good at the bar and my friends and I were catered to all night long. The food was good, however my plate was simply ok. We all had a pulled-something sandwich. I had pulled chicken, and my friends had a pulled primerib and pulled pork. Out of the three, mine was definitely the least flavourful. Despite my plate, I will definitely be returning to try some other stuff on the menu. I mean, who else does a Mac and cheese burger bun? Yup, I love gimmicks. This place is worth checking out. read more

RUBS American BBQ - Pulled chicken sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Laval, Quebec

A new love is born! This is an update to my first review of their other location http://www.yelp.ca/biz/le-fumoir-rubs-montr%C3%A9al#hrid:l01Z-P8OwPMOy08cM6bADg This restaurant opening is the most exciting thing that's happened in 2014 as of yet! I'm a HUGE fan of Rubs' smoky deliciousness that-stays-on-your-fingers-for-days and used to go to their Prince Arthur location on an almost weekly basis, since they closed down temporarily, I'm so glad I got a fix elsewhere. This Laval location is beautiful, much roomier than their first restaurant, lots of banquets and a big bar that could accommodate a good dozen people. Also, plenty of parking! I went on Feb 1, opening day, despite some computer glitches and slow orders, the food is as good, if not better than what I remember a year ago. We came back the following evening where Superbowl Sunday proved to be much quieter and found more things to like from their menu. Prices have gone up a little bit, you now have to pay 1.95$ extra for premium sides like mac and cheese, grilled veggies and sweet potatoes when they used to be included at no additional charge. They are so worth it though, you cannot come here and not get their smoked mac and cheese!! They finally have a drinks menu and have added a couple new food items. Initially we wanted to order the prime rib but it wasn't available unless you wanted it sliced in a sandwich. I would suggest calling in advance if you really want it because they only have it on weekends, first come first serve. My dining companion can be picky but he absolutely adored the beef ribs he "settled" for and has been fantasizing about them since. The salmon may be overlooked as it doesn't seem like a popular item to get at an american bbq place, but I assure you, the buttery, smoky tenderness of it WILL satisfy. Pretty much everything is worth a try, my mouth is watering as I type this... It's rare that I get to interact with people behind the scenes, I love that one of the owners (shout out to Mike!) is very hands on and present at the location. He always comes by to check up on customers and if there's any issue, he is willing and able to please. Whoever runs their Facebook page also does a great job of being responsive to fans. I'm loving this business, spreading the word and wishing them all the best to thrive!! read more

Came here on a Friday night with a group of hungry 15 young adults and we picked just the right spot! Our waiter was awesome and took care of us the entire night. We started with pitchers of beer and sangria and appetizers like Mac and cheese donuts, jalapeño poppers, and you can't forget the poutine! They have pulled pork, brisket, and a special poutine, which as ALL the fix'ins. We ordered 5 Platter for 2s and we had pretty much had 2 platters of food left over! The platter comes with ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and rotisserie chicken, as well as 3 sides. The ribs and surprisingly, the chicken were my fav! We were all stuffed but our waiter instead that we try their chocolate covered bacon and brought over 2 plates for us to sample. Def recommend and will come back next time I'm in town! read more

Absolutely loved this place. We had a blooming onion, for 10$ that's an amazing entree. Big, crispy and tasty. So worth it. We then took the Texas Platter for 2 (could easily feed 4). The beef ribs are by far the best thing!! Some of the best ribs I've had. The pulled pork was very good but not exceptional. The brisket and chicken were tasty but dry. I'm happy I got to try abit of everything. The coselaw is very good not creamy or vinegary. I can't wait to go back to try the chicken and waffles and the bacon brownie Sunday. read more

I have 2 picky children who never agree on where they want to go for lunch. But while visiting Montreal my cousin suggested this place and we thought we would check it out. We were not disappointed. Poutine is a 'must have' whenever we visit and this place has a pulled chicken and pulled pork poutine we thought was delish. And, for all the mommies who care, the bathrooms were super clean. read more

I'm not a huge fan of ribs, but once in a while, I have a craving for it. Wanted to check out this place as I haven't really found a resto that serves good ribs, and I must say that this is the place! Ordered the chickens strips and the Kentucky fried wings. The chicken strips were a tad bit dry, but the wings were amazing. Got the smoked beef brisket plate with fries and coleslaw. Found the coleslaw a little too sweet for my liking. Loved the crispy fries and how they had an almost burnt taste to them. The brisket was tender and juicy, loved the fat on it as well. Got to try the St. Louis ribs, and they melted off the bone. Lots of meat, and liked the fact that our waiter Chris gave us extra sauces to try out as it was our first time. Our waiter Chris was very attentive, answered all of our questions and very friendly, service was quick. Couldn't finish my meal, portions are huge, ended up taking it to go. Also had a Yelp coupon for a free beer with a purchase of an entree, so that was pretty nice. Overall had a enjoyable experience, will definitely go back. read more

I've wanted to try Le Fumoir Rubs for quite some time while noticing that American style BBQ is getting more popular here in Montreal! We booked the place for 20 people for a group function and were given the option of a more private area so we gladly chose this! It was nice, not too loud and comfortable for us to stretch out to two tables! Onto the food. We ordered the pulled pork nachos as a started and Chicken wings as well! The PP Nachos were amazing! The chicken wings were good with a nice smoked flavour but were complete wing tipped versions! Not the best I've eaten in my life but definitely very good! For the main meal we ordered the Texas platter. It came with 4 sides which we chose (mac N cheese, sweet potato fries, apple coleslaw, beans). Only complaint is the serving portion was a bit smaller for the sides that only allowed for a small amount per person (we were 5). Onto the meat, there was a very large portion of beef brisket, pork ribs, chicken & pulled pork. It was seriously so damm good! Barney Rubble and Fred Flinstone would be in heaven or any other meat loving carnivore! To wash it down I had the Key lime pie. Not as good as in Florida but passable for Quebec! All in all everyone seem satisfied although we probably had to all undo the belt buckle a notch or two! Having a bunch of beer it was around $50 per person (tax & tip) which is very reasonable! read more

After all the rave reviews from fellow yelpers, how could I not try this place? As expected, it did not disappoint. We tried the blooming onion (so good!!!) and the Mac n cheese donuts (kinda bland if eating without the accompanying dipping sauce). For the mains, we had the beef ribs (tender and fall off that massive bone) and the fried chicken and waffle which I preferred over the beef ribs. For the sides, I tried the smoked vegetables which I highly recommend, in fact I could eat a whole plate of those as a main! Service was excellent, and the restaurant was kid friendly, my son stared at the giant smoker for the longest time and at one point there was a line up of kids standing alongside it mesmerized! read more

My last review was 5 stars but I have been twice after that and both time the waiter was borderline rude, the service was slow and the food was not good at all. I was shocked because its a much different experience than what encountered before. Both time I went during the Fifa and the place was empty. The first time we had a few different appetizers and they were cold and the blooming onion was greasier than usual. The second time I had the tacos and I was expecting soft shells but to my surprise I got stale old el paso hard shell tacos. The filling was ok but not great. Not sure now if I will be going back kinda left a bad taste in my mouth read more

Food was ok, nothing too exceptional and doesn't compare to the smoke houses I've tried in the US. Their brisket was pretty bad, it was dry and chewy. Ribs were ok, but were lacking sauce. Chicken was very good, really moist. The blooming onion was ok, but much oilier than the ones I've had at Outback, for example. The plate was dripping with oil when we finished eating the onion, which shows poor execution when frying the onion. Waitresses were young, pretty, but really airheaded. I suppose they were selected for their looks more so than for their experience or ability to exchange with their clients. Overall it was not impressive at all, and considering that this food counts as a debauchery, I would have expected to leave much more satisfied. read more

Fantastic St-Louis style ribs. Great Mac & cheese. Drinks are great. Service is super slow. We waited one hour for our food! Not normal in this kind of restaurant.

Always good ribs!! Service is slow but can't complain about the ribs!! Food was plenty for 2 people!

I have been to this location many times and I enjoy it. Probably some of the best American BBQ in the GMA. The service is usually about average and food is always good. Menu items I liked: burger, pork ribs, brisket, mac n cheese, salmon, pulled pork sandwich, pulled chicken sandwich. Don't bother with the blooming onion. Desserts are just ok. Tried the delivery service tonight. Food was packed extremely well in elegant cardboard boxes and was warm and fresh. The delivery driver was polite and arrived faster than I expected for a Saturday night at supper time. I find that eating here is over-priced. I ordered the basic burger plate with no frills and an appetizer of pulled pork rolls, and my bill was $35 including tip for the driver. That's why this restaurant will remain a luxury for me. read more

I've been passing by this place for months and finally stopped in to get the skinny, so here it is. The staff are super friendly and most all speak great English which is perfect for a yankee like me. It was pretty busy so I opted for a seat at the bar which meant no waiting. Nice. The server came over almost immediately and recommend a beer after some questions and it was a nice selection. I wasn't sure what to pick so I went with a combo platter and it was a lot more food than expected. Oops. Lol. The rib meat pulled off the bone and was juicy and flavorful. My only compliant was maybe my own issue in that I kept getting bone from the ends in my mouth. I'm used to eating baby backs and I guess they don't have as much bone/cartilage at the ends. The chicken was not just a breast but a 1/4 chicken. It had great flavor but it was just a little dryer than I like. It was still good enough to devour though. I finished with a death by chocolate dessert. Yummy! This is the best BBQ in Quebec so far. Enjoy! read more

Ok.. So I went back .. to Le Fumoir Rubs!! The addiction for those pickles were calling my name and wanted to try the beef ribs! Went on a week night. Service was good and attentive once again. I must give props to Pascal he was an amazing waiter and to the owners that were there to make sure we were receiving the best possible service. We had some great discussions with one of the owners and let me tell you he is a blast to talk to. Now for the food - The beef ribs were just crazy!! If you have not tried their beef ribs yet, you must! Just melt in your mouth, amazing tender meat and if you pay close attention to the meat.. the perfect smoke ring around the ribs and the taste WOW!!.. Not too much sauce and the right amount of rub. The sides, well, I have described them before so no need to do it again - but they were spot on and just like asked. I asked for my fries to be cooked a bit longer and they did. Most places don't, but say they did :) They pay close attention to what you want, speak up if something is not to your liking. They will take care of it. They have a great crew and great staff - from a happy customer that will be back many times!! read more

For the meat lover. Just like down south. Smoked bbq. Very tasty and moist. We were 10 large men and ordered two platters of meat. We didn't finish them. Nothing healthy here.
