Besides the fact that every time I come to this establishment something is always sold out. Not a bad thing just means I wasn’t hungry enough to make the trip here during the afternoon. Great guy making your crepes though, always substitutes when something runs out and doesn’t charge you extra! great customer service! He didn’t have strawberries or brownies but made me a s’mores crêpe with bananas how awesome! Haven’t had the savoury food here since this is just my second stop after hitting up Gushi chicken for some bomb chicken, one day I’ll get this Montréal style poutine everyone talks about. Recommend the crepes and Enjoy!

My grand search has finally concluded. I have found Montréal-quality poutine in Toronto. The sublimely squeaky cheese curds are imported fresh from Quebec, the gravy is perfect, and the fries are cooked fresh to order. Blog TO got it right when they dubbed this dish the best poutine in Toronto. It really is far, far superior to any other Toronto-based poutine I’ve ever had. It even ranks in my top 3 poutine experiences. The owner who runs the place is super chirper young guy, as Québécois as his delicious food. Thank you to him and baby Jesus for this incredible food that tastes like baby angels.

Tried their Parisienne and Montréal Smoked Meat poutine and wow were they good. Great flavor, soft cheese, and the perfect portion size as well. Definitely now my go-to poutine spot!

Such a tiny kitchen but the menu is quite large. All the items are fairly priced and I will be back to try the crepes! We had the smoked meat poutine, which is one of the most popular poutines along with the traditional. Made to order – I love fresh fries! There was a generous portion of meat, cheese curds and there was just the right amount of sauce. Mind you, we ate outside in the 10 °C weather and the poutine definitely warmed me up and reactivated all my senses! Loved it. The poutine is also packaged in a resealable container so you can take it home if you don’t finish it. Great service as well. Come with a friend and get 2 traditional poutines for $ 10.

I think Blog T.O. got it right when they ranked nom nom nom crepes as the best poutine hub in they city! The stand can’t be any larger than a hot dog cart, but it’s unbelievable what glorious food is produced in such a tiny area. I believe the man working at the stand was in fact the owner, as he seemed so passionate and genuinely happy with what he was doing, it was wonderful :) He also explained how he has a loyalty card set up; get a stamp for every $ 4 spent, get 10 stamos and you get a free crêpe! Probably one of the best, if not the best, loyalty card I’ve ever seen. Serving both sweet and savoury crepes, and about 8 exquisite poutine flavours, I opted for the Parisienne poutine; crispy onions, homemade gravy, fries cooked freah right before your eyes, cheese curds, seasoned chicken breast(which was so so moist and flavourful), and the piece de resistance, slices of Brie cheese :’) The way the Brie stretched and pulled and oozed and goozed… it was really too good to be true! I’ve tried many poutines in my life, and I gotta say, I don’t think this one will be beat! Especially considering the fact that it’s such a tiny stand, with such a passionate owner running it, that makes me even more intrigued to give my business to him. Please, help nom nom nom crepes grow, and help yourself by indulging in the tastiest poutine our city has to offer!

After a whole week of running around and having no time for anything anymore, I just wanted some good old poutine. What better place than Nom Nom! My friend is the one who recommended this place and told me there usually is a line up. Well wasn’t it my lucky day. It was raining like crazy outside and I still wanted to mission it downtown to check this place out. As soon as I arrived it was such a cute little area on the side of road where all these food trucks were lined up side by side. It was raining so badly that I told my friend that he was closer to the food truck to order a original poutine for me with extra gravy. When we looked outside not a single soul in line. Wihoo! There was a deal 2 original poutines for $ 10 so that’s exactly what we ordered. When we asked for extra gravy he said it was on the house because it wasn’t busy that day. Now that’s just gang! It took about 10 minutes luckily my friend took my umbrella while he waited outside to chit chat with the owner. When he got in to the car it smelled so good and the food was piping hot. I just dug in and the cheese curds were perfectly textured and nice and squeaky in my mouth(let’s keep the jokes for later haha!). This was one of the best poutines I ever had, these Quebecers know what’s up! The portion size is huge and my food never got cold. It was delicious and I will definitely come back to Nom Nom’s and get more creative with my poutine now that I know the original poutine is on point. Totally make your way down to this place for some cheesy gooey goodness :)

I’m impressed how one guy in a stall effectively serves so many people within a reasonable time frame. I’ve been coming here for years and I’m always coming back to try something different. From ice cream to crepes, to poutine and other stuff there’s something for everyone. This pop up is part of the scadding court market where vendor’s come and go as the seasons go by, but this guy is always there even during the winter. The crêpe itself isn’t as tasty as some other places but the combination of fillings really does stand out. Winter is coming, and that means that all of the extra seating goes away(as my experience over 3 years) so it might not be that great for groups moving forward. In all great service, great food in a nice neighbourhood.

Its just a stall but the poutine is AMAZING. Possibly the best I’ve ever had. And cheap too. The guy is also super friendly. Never tried the crepes but I plan to

Hands down the BEST vegetarian poutine in the city(so glad the gravy is veg!) and I have tried many since I am a poutine fiend who also happens to be vegetarian! Reasonably priced, big portion, friendly service. Thank you!

He does not take shortcuts with his ingredients! Crispy fresh fries are made with red potatoes, and his cheese curds are homemade! With good amount of gravy but not too overbearing or salty. Its made fresh to order, so a bit of a wait time is expected if there’s a line, but well worth it. Well deserving of #1 poutine in Toronto award.

Super friendly staff made my first meal of Canadian poutine perfect. Warm and fresh on a chilly and rainy day.

Went here yesterday(June 18) with a few friends. Was excited to have some poutine here; decided to order the traditional poutine. It was heavenly! The right amount of gravy(not too much, not too little), the cheese curds squeaking and the fries being crispy… hands down, the best poutine I’ve ever had in Toronto. (edit: and all of my friends agree too)!

It’s a bit of a wait to get this poutine. And while I was waiting I was thinking, I can’t imagine myself coming here very often if this is a normal wait. But I changed my mind. The poutine was awesome — perfect fries, flavourful gravy, and real cheese curds. Each poutine is made fresh to order — which is why the wait and why it’s so good. I got the traditional, but they have some creative poutines as well — including duck confit! There were no seats available when I got there but I grabbed a spot on the library bench nearby. And I’ll definitely be back!

I was surprised when i arrived here and the place was actually an adorable food truck, not far from Kensington Market. I ordered the traditional poutine. I had tried poutine for the first time in Montréal and was utterly disgusted. I wanted to give it another try though, and I’m glad that I did because this poutine was more than edible. Although the owner explained that his poutine was based from the traditional Montréal style since that’s where poutine originated, I found his cheese, gravy, and fries to be more balanced. Good job!

Ordered the montreal smoked meat poutine and it was beyond heavenly! The cheese curds squeak, the gravy has the right consistency and flavor and the fries are nice and crispy. Hands down one of the best poutines in all of Toronto. I almost finished the whole thing by myself! I will def. come back to try the other poutine variants and the crepes. Keep up the awesome poutines!

I frequent Kanto, the Filipino food crate, but decided to try Nom Nom Nom instead. The guy who runs it is super friendly and upbeat. He provides wonderful customer service despite how busy is. He was moving around very quickly getting things done and I didn’t feel I waited too long. Unfortunately, I didn’t much like the poutine. There was something different about the cheese curds, which to me are the biggest part of the experience. They were squeaky and tasted great but the texture was a little off, it was more like paneer. The gravy was decent and but the fries were perfection! I’d come back and try something else. The crepes look lovely!

Come for the crepes, but then stay for the poutine! Not a surprise that BlogTO ranked this place for the best poutine in Toronto! If you are going for the crepes go for the Montréal style crêpe. I can’t get enough of those… except if I just had a poutine!

Wow can’t believe so little people have reviewed this place. My favorite poutine in the city. Made after you place your order. I’ve found Smoke’s can taste a little stale as if the fries have been sitting around awhile. They are a great price and huge portions. Selling out of a little shipping container wouldn’t expect such tasty food. I love this place.

This teensy crêpe shop has set up in Market 707, which is a row of shipping containers at Dundas and Bathurst that have been retrofitted to host food stalls. It is the first of its kind in Toronto, but a second shipping container market is being set up this summer. It’s a new take on street food, and I approve. The owner is super nice and he makes a good crêpe. They have both sweet and savoury crepes, with two veg options. The low rent allows for very reasonable prices, which I enjoy. They have some outdoor seating set up in front, where you can enjoy the flowers on the roof, in wooden planters built by a woodworking class of kids from the local high school. I was here as part of a food tour, so we only got a few samples. I will need to go back to try the sweet crepes, and the delicious looking grilled cheese!
