Bofinger Smokehouse

Food is okay. However, do not order sweet potato fries — they literally scorch them to the black.
Waiting on tables — miserable.

Since when does «all you can eat» mean 3 orders of 3 ribs only. Last time I checked that is not all you can eat.
The Mac-​n-​cheese is Velveeta crap, The first order of ribs were good, then the other ones came charred and tasteless. They had to ask how many beer we had (Umm you served us. you should know that…)
To be told «sorry it’s not all you can eat it’s 3 orders only» when it clearly says all you can eat and isn’t noted only 3. My last order showed up with 2 ribs. I order more and was told I’d have to pay for an order.
It’s gone waaay downhill.

Wow. Their BBQ is just terrible. Super tough beef rib. Fatty pulled pork. Even the beef brisket was almost impossible to eat. So tough and tasteless. I’m not sure how they can possibly get BBQ to taste like this. Even the sides were disappointing, baked beans that were still hard. Won’t eat here again.

Went here for Poutine week and they were clearly not prepared for the amount of customers. There were two girls coking and sometimes bringing food to tables, and then there was one waitress who sounded like she might also be a manager or owner by the way she’d yell at the other two girls. Service was slow, unprofessional, and very poorly organized.
It was obvious we would have to wait forever for a table, so we decided to order takeout instead. We waited AN HOUR just to get the food. There were 4 of us, my three friends got their food first and I had to wait about another 15 minutes (all I ordered was poutine). Meanwhile, my friends’ food was getting cold, and we still had to drive home before eating it. While we were waiting, I saw two different people get up to leave because it was taking too long to get their food, but the waitress managed to get them to stay and gave them their food.
Even though the service was horrible and my Poutine was just warm enough to eat, I gave them three stars because it was delicious. Regular and sweet potato fries with pulled pork which tasted amazing.
I would like to give this place another try on a less busy day.

I went here for poutine week. Their special was ridiculously good. I went to 8 other places and Bofinger had the best. I grew up in the southeastern United States, so when I see restaurants outside of this region that claim to specialize in barbecue I’m always skeptical. But these guys really seem to know what they’re doing. Delicious!

Bonnes ailes de poulet. Bonnes frites bien croustillantes! Staff sympathiques.
Je retournerai seulement si je suis dans le coin mais je né ferais pas nécessairement un détour pour y aller.

Ordered BBQ chicken sandwich, poutine and mac & cheese. For the amount we paid, the chicken sandwich was small, the poutine was not that good and the mac & cheese was a Velveeta ready-​made dinner.
Do not recommend.

Ordered the Poboy sandwhich. The sandwich was great, and ordered the Mac and cheese. Having been to many BBQ places in Canada and the states, the Mac and cheese is the reason I’m giving 3 stars. I’m almost certain that it’s Kraft dinner velveeta. Not terrible but I could have done the same thing in my pjs in my kitchen. Really not worth spending more than a box of Kraft dinner at Walmart.
Not real Mac and cheese whatsoever, and it was the part I was excited about the most.
IF I come back here I’ll definitely only be ordering a sandwhich and fries.

bonne Poutine a la viande! Excellents prix menu midi! J’ai bien aimé aussi la terrasse au soleil. Je reviendrai.

Le décor parfait pour le genre. Les cotes de bœuf délicieuse. Je reviendrai.

We were looking for a «family friendly» restaurant to have a few drinks and an early dinner. Most of the restaurants we walked past were quaint, cute French bistros with very tight seating. With a 22 month old, that just wasn’t gonna happen. Happened upon this place and decided to give it a try. Glad we did! The beef ribs were incredible. So much flavor and cooked to perfection. Had a Moosehead beer with it — the perfect complement. Kids had room to fiddle in their chairs (patio cushion type seating) and Mommy and Daddy were very happy. Very happy with our first meal in Montréal !

A place to get an American style BBQ fix in Montréal, nothing more. They’re on the pricier side, but then, given this is Montréal, they’re actually a decent value. They have pretty good pork ribs. Chicken & beef were dry and hard. Extra sauce on the side always helps. I liked their fries more than their meat, though… crispy and salty… really unhealthy, but you don’t eat fries to be healthy, so for a «bad» food, they were great. Potato salad was pretty good, too. Mac-​n-​cheese was kind of like the Kraft box ones.
They deliver!!! Always give an extra star for delivery!

This piece of heaven is designed to make you feel like you’ve died and woke up in the suburbs, but the suburbs of Texas or Houston or the Mississippi, unfortunately the cooks are all from here which means it’s about as authentic as a bottle of BBQ sauce that says, ‘Imported from El Paso Texas’. I had the ribs and tried the pulled pork at different times, if you have ever tried to make either of these things it’s not that hard after a few times so when a place says it’s known for it, they better be better than the junk you make, and they weren’t, too dry, warm and drowning in sauce makes you feel like you had some food from down south but you took the wrong exit. I would give this place a few more years to get better or just give er up and head on back to the ranch.

Now, I’ve had the real deal BBQ in the past. Bowfinger is «ok» BBQ, but definitely not the real deal.
I had the Assiette de Viande (large), it comes with two sides. I ordered Beef and Pork, then Mac N Cheese and Coleslaw.
The beef was a bit dry, they reheat the meat by the way. There isn’t enough turn around to have a smoker running 24 hours a day. Porc was good but not great.

Came here for a late lunch. The ordering concept was interesting, the decoration was appropriate and in theme, but unfortunately the food was quite disappointing.
I ordered the pulled pork sandwich. The pork was chewy not tender. It felt like it had been cooked and then forgotten on the counter and dried out. The flavor was there, but the texture and moisture wasn’t. Disappointing. Same with the fries. They had already been cooked and were simply deep fried a second time. They tasted oily and were very soggy. Not something I look forward to in a frie. I tried my gfs BBQ pork ribs: again it tasted good flavor wise, but seemed very dry.
Overall, the BBQ flavor was great, but the food wasnt.

Mmmm Bofinger’s pulled pork sandwich is amazing. It’s heaven in your mouth.
Alabama hot sauce is key for that bad boy.
French fries are insanely good too.

Get ready to use those paper towels!
If you like American BBQ, this is the place. Great sandwiches w/​fries for a good price. I dig it!
I grabbed the Beef Brisket Sandwich combo w/​a drink and landed at $ 10.24 after tax. Yum!
We got there just before noon and there was no line. We were lucky because after we ordered and sat down, a HUGE line formed because the local high school students just got out for lunch. Make sure you get there before they do!
There’s great outdoor seating if you’re there on a sunny day. Nice spot for a relaxing lunch w/​friends.
