Rest-Poutine

POUR — Né suis pas amateur de poutine, une appelation d’ailleurs ridicule. Expérience désastreuse à Montebello, dimanche dernier d’ailleurs.
Ici, non pas un choix unique mais 20 sortes de poutines. Me suis réconcilié aujourd’hui avec ce mets. Goûteuse avec saucisses, bacon et champignons. Il m’en reste 19 autres à tester. Portion généreuse même du plus petit format (voir ma photo). Prix: 6,85 $
Tables extérieurs confortables avec toit protecteur en cas de pluie comme aujourd’hui.
CONTRE Pas de demie portion pour éviter l’abus que j’en fais ce soir

Je pense simplement que la poutine est bonne. La sauce est pas toujours la même depuis quelque temps, mais on y retourne

Rest-​Poutine is like a Waffle House in the states, except they are specializing not in greasy breakfast cuisine but equally unhealthy, but amazingly delicious, poutine, burgers, and other comfort foods.
A stand alone establishment in Blainville, Rest-​Poutine provided a somewhat convenient stopping point for us on the way to Mont Tremblant. Décor is dated… and just what you would expect from a «comfort food» establishment. Tables are simple and plentiful. Service was friendly and attentive.
The Poutine — this was my first ever official poutine, I mean I have in the past had French fries slathered with say condiments or BBQ pork that fell off a sandwich, but I never thought to market that mistake and name it something like «poutine.» I ordered the petite poutine with smoked meat $ 7.35 CAD while my wife had the petite vegetable poutine $ 6.85 CAD. The «petite» portions were actually somewhat large, and could actually be shared by a couple. The dishes themselves… well it was as I had imagined, delicious French fries topped with meat and vegetables. I’m not quite sure what I’m looking for in this dish, but it was filling, tasteful, and reasonably priced. I’m not claiming to be a poutine expert, but I thought it was good for what it was — French fries with stuff on top.
Looking for something to ease the hangover from the night before, or your first poutine, or just for a cheap meal, then I recommend checking out Rest-​Poutine. NOTE — they are cash only establishment but do have an ATM inside.

A bit disappointed. Although they have a variety of poutine variations to choose from, it did not taste spectacular. Nothing really special about it.

I read a review of this place some time ago from one of my favorite Unilocalers and I immediately bookmarked it. A Mom and Pop comfort food/​poutine place? Yes please!
And yesterday, the day of reckoning was nigh!
It’s a pretty easy place is easy to find with plenty of parking (always a good thing!) and their noon rush was pretty obvious yet was managed well. Made my way to the cash and was served immediately by a nice lady. I went with my gut feeling with a regular large poutine. She warns me it’s a pretty big plate.
I know what I’m about woman.
Asks us to seat ourselves and the food will come, so we opted for the open terrace as it was a nice day. We chatted and the food came within 10 minutes.
Across the board the service was notably good.
So how’s the food? The poutine was heavenly. Probably the best I’ve found off Montréal island for a long long time. The poutine hit all 3 targets it should. The fries were perfect. The curds were extra squeaky and generously spread. And most importantly, the gravy was amazing, the texture was something I really appreciated.
All this for a mere $ 8. This poutine was pretty much one of the biggest plates I’ve seen. This probably would have cost at least $ 12 – 13 if it was on the island of Montréal with a line-​up outside the door (like the over-​hyped Banquise).
All in all, I’m a fan for life. Will definitely be back again.

Crazy busy, fast service and friendly, very fresh since its always packed, food doesn’t have time to sit at all. The place is small but surprisingly fits a lot of ppl, it’s very cozy and has an outdated diner style that fits the comfort food. There’s a nice terrace for the warmer days of the year. Everything ppl next to me ordered looked really tasty and everyone finished their meals. Ppl come from far to eat here from what I hear. I highly recommend this place. It has a lot of regulars and prices are great for the quality and amount of food you get !

This place is about as mythical as «Schwartz’s Deli» in Montréal.
Unequivocally THE BEST POUTINE in the north crown of Montréal. Perhaps not the best looking place, it’s really a hole-​in-​the-​wall, but sometimes that «mom & pops» place is really the best. No delivery, just takeout or dine-​in. I highly recommend the smoked meat poutine, no veggies. You can also try their pizza, but the poutine is where it’s at.
Trust me, you’ll thank me.
