After reading the last two reviews, I thought "well, one of them has got to be wrong". So I tried it.
I pride myself as someone that can spot the real deal, homemade stuff. The sauce IS NOT from a packet, and the fries ARE NOT "frozen hand cut fries". You can actually see the cooks cut the potatoes while you wait if you order at the take out counter... The fries are VERY good, the real, right way: blanched and fried; and the sauce is very tasty, real: made from beef stock, not chicken base or barbecue sauce; and the spices and herbs in it are spot on. Not too salty, not too thick, just right. As for the cheese curds, true, they are coming out of the refrigerator, which WOULD be a real dissapointment if one were to eat them as is... But since they are added to a hot dish, with hot fresh fries and hot gravy which makes them melt anyway, there is no crime here. All in all, as a Montrealer that has eaten a lot of poutine, I'm saying this is a REALLY good one, the best you can get in Verdun. I'm not saying you should cross the whole city to come to the place cause there are a lot of good poutine places in Montreal, but if you are in Verdun, that's where you want to get your fix from.
I also ordered the "Normand Special" cheeseburger, and it was a very good burger. The meat was fresh, and the combination of ingredients is just well thought of. I enjoyed the home made mayo and the mix of pickles, hot peppers and bacon.
All and all, if you feel like a greasy spoon in Verdun, this is a vary good spot. Only downside is their business hours since they close at 9pm.
