This is my second time visiting Dunns. My first time was by myself at their Metcalfe location. This time around I was with my family and decided to check this location out. My son ordered their Smoked Meat Bagel, my wife ordered their Le Petit Smoked Meat sandwich, and I of course had to go with their Super Combo Smoked Meat. You can never go wrong with smoked meat. Overall the service was great. Very prompt and friendly service. But most importantly, the food tasted delicious. The smoked meat was great and I can definitely see myself returning for a third time. read more

My wife and I were in Montreal recently, my first trip to Montreal or Quebec. We looked up options for poutine in the area near our hotel and Dunn's came up. We got seated immediately and the restaurant was pretty full. We wanted to get an authentic experience with poutine and smoked meat. My wife ordered a hot dog poutine, and we ordered a smoked meat Caesar salad and and Dunn's Famous Burger (A burger with smoked meat and an almost bagel like bun). They were all pretty good. I was less familiar with smoked meat (if you're not familiar it's a regional delicacy, smoked brisket with a different seasoning than pastrami, but locals, don't call it pastrami). I probably couldn't tell the difference between smoked meat and pastrami, but the smoked meat I tried was yummy. At least we had a salad to keep us slightly honest. The staff were friendly and responsive to our needs. read more

While visiting Montreal I decided to drop by an old favourite at a newer location, Dunn's on Jean Talon and Decarie. Eating here reminded why the Smoked Meat is still better in Montreal than Toronto, despite Toronto having improved over the years. The Smoked Meat was excellent and so were the sweet potato fries. To top it off I ordered a Cherry Cola, and since Cott's closed down, Dunn's are now making their own Cherry Cola which tastes basically the same. All in all a very pleasant experience. read more

I have nothing bad to say about the food. This review is only about how we were treated. We live 5 minutes away. We were rushing home to watch the game when my youngest, 4 years old, suddenly needed a bathroom. The way 4 year olds do, no warning, no negotiating. I spotted the restaurant, stepped in and asked politely. The look I got said more than any words could. On our way out he noticed the TV. Game 7 was just starting. His eyes lit up. We'd been walking past crowds of people in red jerseys and he kept asking why everyone was dressed the same. I'm a fan. He's still 4, hockey is still new to him. So I crouched down and started explaining. That's our team. These are the playoffs. Whoever wins tonight moves on. He was locked in, pointing at the screen, asking questions. It was one of those two minute moments with a small kid you just don't want to cut short. A server came over to ask for our order. I said one moment, we're just leaving. Before I could finish, a staff member named Cassandra told me this wasn't a public place for watching TV. I said I understood, just one more minute. She repeated it: order something or leave. I asked for a glass of water. Her answer was no. Water is free, doesn't count. You need to order something paid or you need to go. 5 minutes. Maybe 3 tables occupied. Two quiet kids. We left. Tonight Montreal won Game 7. The city lost its mind. People crying in the streets, hugging strangers, horns going everywhere. My 4 year old saw all of it. But he almost understood what he was seeing. He was about 3 more minutes of explanation away from having that moment where hockey becomes something real for the first time. Cassandra made sure that didn't happen. There's a difference between running a business and just being a decent human being. Tonight you lost both a customer and a moment that can't be given back. Montréal mérite mieux. read more

I'm usually not a fan of smoked meat sandwiches, but Dunn's has a great smoked brisket sandwich. My friend and I landed in Montreal and made Dunn's our first lunch stop. The vibe is old school diner with booths and a bar lined with red stools. The service is quick and efficient and we had multiple servers during our visit. My friend and I opted for the small smoked meat sandwich combo and the smoked meat poutine. We were taken aback by the huge portions for both the sandwich and the poutine (but better more than less). The smoked meat sandwich had a decent amount of meat and came with a ton of fries. This was bad news because the poutine came with a ton of fries, gravy, cheese curds, and smoked meat bits. Taste-wise, the meat used for both mains were deliciously smoky and tender. The only problem was that the sandwich used flimsy rye bread that got soggy quickly. On the other hand, the poutine was comforting with a blanket of savory gravy and melted cheese curds. Paired with ketchup, mayo, and mustard, both the sandwich and poutine made for a hearty meal. Dunn's is a great choice in the middle of winter when you want a warm carb and protein filled meal to protect you from the cold. Definitely worth the money and if you can't finish the food, just take the rest to go. read more

I can't emphasize enough that if you're reading this review and have never had a smoked meat sandwich in Montreal, you owe it to yourself to try one here. It's almost impossible to find a Montreal Smoked Meat sandwich outside of the area since it will either be corned beef, pastrami, or brisket. But a smoked meat sandwich will be a juicy tender version of all three. I got the fatty cut for a sandwich that literally melts in your mouth. Large diner booths with a dessert window round out the "come in and sit" ambiance. With a parking lot and open basically 24 hours, you can stop here after a late night comedy show, or if you want to completely skip the 2 hour line at Schwartz without sacrificing the taste. read more

The food was excellent as was the service. Ordered latkes as appetizers and the smoked meat platter so we could make our own sandwiches. We asked for lean and it was delicious. It was Saturday night and the restaurant was packed, but this did not affect the friendly attentive service. read more

Came here on a Friday evening. Restaurant was pretty busy but we got seated within a few mins. Friendly and attentive service. Food was really good. Free parking in the shared parking lot and they accept credit cards. For starters, we ordered the smoked meat egg rolls and Michigan hot dog. Michigan hot dog was interesting, almost like a sweeter chili dog. I got the Smoked Meat Plate and it was enough to share with another person. Highly recommend the Smoked Meat Plate. Comes with 4 rye bread slices so you can build your own sandwich. For the smoked meat, you have 3 choices: lean, fatty and medium; medium being the most popular. We got medium. read more

I ordered a jumbo smoked meat and what they are serving now as jumbo is not serious if you compare as before. But the sandwich was good. Lots of families in here tonight. Not too loud , just right. The service was great. Efficient and amicable. Parking is a little difficult with 3 restaurants sharing the spaces read more

The food is good. I've eaten here a couple of times on different trips to Canada. Greeter seated us immediately and service was fast. Nice homie feeling of the restaurant. The only thing is if you're from the US don't think of the food here to be your typical southern smoke house. It's far from southern barbecue. read more

Whenever visiting Montreal, this is a must go to instead of waiting on line around the block for the latest popular poutine. A must go to dish is the poutine with smoked meat that's half fatty and lean. The people in the restaurant are always nice too and hardly ever a wait. Wish they had this in NYC. read more

An easy walk from my hotel so I altered my plan of a return visit to Schwartz's. Was fairly empty at 11:30, got right in and service was attentive. Opted for the small combo, came with fries; slaw; and a pickle. I thought the bread was thin and weak - but the smoked meat had good flavor. Slaw was okay - but the pickle was crisp and tangy. Normally I wouldn't eat as many fries but I'm a sucker for the Canadian Heinz ketchup ...lol. It's a nice place and an easy place to go mid town. Solid lunch, but doesn't beat Schwartz's read more

Came her for lunch with a friend on August 13. Were arrived around 2:00pm and seating was very fast as I'm assuming most of the lunch crowd (if any) had already left. We were immediately asked after being seated if we wanted something to drink and both my friend and I opted for just water. I took a look at the menu and decided to have the smoke meat platter which was some slices of smoke meat, some pieces of rye bread, a small cup of coleslaw, a pickle slice, and some fries. My friend decided on s smoke meat plate which compromised of a smoke meat sandwich, a small cup of coleslaw, a pickle slice, and some fries which he decided to swap for another small cup of coleslaw. We were asked what type of cuts we wanted for our smoke meat and both my friend and I opted for the medium (there is fatty, medium, and lean). Within a few minutes, our orders arrived, I used my rye bread and put a few pieces of smoke meat in it to make my sandwich and topped it with some mustard. I found it to be very good. The plate size was decent for the price. They have free WiFi in this place which requires a password. Since my cellphone was having issues with accessing the data (speed-wise). I'm not sure if it was because coverage in the restaurant wasn't good or whether it was because the area didn't have good coverage for data. I asked for the password for the WiFi and was given it. I had a problem connecting originally but when the server returned, I asked her for the WiFi password again and she gave it to me and this time it worked with her clarification. After finishing, we were asked how we were going to pay and both of us said separately and with credit card. The server brought the portable credit card reader to our table and we paid for our meals before leaving. Service was great and the server was very friendly and talkative. Food arrived fast and our water was refilled during our meal without us asking. Also free working WiFi (with password which they easily provided when asked). Plus, they were advertised to accept American Express credit cards and didn't give me any hassles when I used my AMEX card to pay for my meal (and gave the server a higher tip that I normally give) read more

Now that it appears they've fixed their matzoh ball soup issues - I've tried the large bowl size twice and the second time was close enough to a 5 to give the overall experience just that; since the service is spot on great! One quick other thing; their rye bread is always fresh as can be and is good to eat with just about anything. Yum! read more

2 reasons why it's 1 star is not the food is the problem. Entering the restaurant we were asked to show our vaccination passport plus ID so we did with no problem while other people coming into the restaurant just walked in and the waitress just brought them to a table without asking for any form of ID or vaccination proof. 2nd. After we were done eating and paying. I gave my waitress a 5$ cash tip and she replied with your supposed to give me a 15% tip. Then turns around with my 5$ bill and walks away with attitude. For this reason I will not be going to eat there again. Food was good....service was bad. read more

So I loved the reuben sandwich most, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars. I would go again just for that and I found that their smoked meat is amazing. The coleslaw, the pickle and and the fries went really well together. The smoked meat poutine was good but I prefer the sandwich. There's no point of ordering appetizers, we had just arrived from the gym and were starving but it was overkill. The meals are very filling so I would only order that next time. Will be returning for that smoked meat!! Yum. read more

A well-known local chain and fixture, Dunn's is a notch above the classic diner offering in that they feature Montreal staples such as latkes & karnatzel (catering to the local Jewish community) and many twists on smoked meat, such as spring rolls, pizzas, sandwiches, toasts, poutines, wraps and the like. Their smoked meat pizza is both inventive and delicious and makes for a great casual meal. As for the sides, I especially recommend their coleslaw. And the drinks are *huge*! High marks as well for the friendly and quick service, not to mention they're open 24/7. read more

Stumbled upon Dunn's while in Montreal for the first time years ago. Finally make our way back - not much to add to other reviews beyond that for a newbie you have a choice with the smoked meat sandwiches. Lean, medium and fatty. On the servers recommendation we went with medium and it was delicious. Such a simple sandwich - smoked brisket, mustard and rye bread but IT'S SO GOOD! Service was fine, restaurant was clean. Nothing to call home about but it's because of the smoked brisket that you'll come here and come back. read more

I visited Montreal only for half a day.. but Dunn's famous is so addictive!! I got a large smoked meat sandwich on my way back to Toronto. And it was so delicious! Tender, juicy, peppery, and perfect! It's a little expensive for a single sandwich ($18) but it's definitely something everyone must have once! read more

I like the Smoked Meat Poutine here. Could be easily shared by 2. Tried 2 varieties of pizza and they were good.

So if you are from Montreal you know that Dunn's is known for amazing smoked meat!! Here's something everyone should try the SMOKED MEAT EGGROLLS, yes you read right. Quite honestly they have been on the menu awhile. A little bit of heaven in every bite size morsel. As for desserts we tried the classic & a newbie, Strawberry Cheesecake & Carrot Caramel Cheesecake. Simply put delicious!!! If your coming to Montreal for a visit try to get to Dunn's they have multiple locations in the Montreal area. There is a reason it has endured since 1927 because it's consistently good!!!! Mayer Dunn would be proud read more

very unhappy with Dunns, delivery was 100 minutes, we thought they would never come, phoned at least twice!! The smoked meat was like grizzle and very FAT, the fries were burned and we had to throw out half of them, the Caesar salad was almost non existent, and for this they charged $14.00!! NEVER again, do yourself a favour and go to another restaurant!!!!!! read more

Good smoke meat sandwich with easy access right of the metro. Always open a good option when you are out here on the Décarie & Jean-Talon. Overall I don't have much more to state, price was reasonable, the fries, coleslaw, pickle and sandwich were good. Not the best I've ever had but pretty good and with it. Enjoy! read more

Dunn's - Small smoke meat plate - Burgers Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

You know for a chain, the quality of their smoked meat is really conspicuously good. Suspiciously good. I think an investigation ought to be launched into the source of Dunn's smoked meat and the hidden secrets behind its consistent deliciousness. Pros: cozy seating and decor, open late, delivery after 5pm Cons: the menu apart from smoked meat is as mediocre as you might expect from a deli chain. To give you an idea, these guys beat Snowdon Deli's smoked meat, and Snowdon Deli has been around since the 40's! Dunn's is up there with the big dogs of the smoked meat game; Reubens, the Main and Schwartz's. read more

Pleasantly surprised by our visit here. I'm vegetarian and my husband loves smoked meat so there was something for both of us. Plus, convenient on the way to the airport. No nonsense service in two languages, and full of older regulars. read more

ATMOSPHERE: At first I thought that the restaurant was going to be a typical rundown chain restaurant but to my surprise, it was pretty nice inside! Plus, they're open very late everyday which is perfect for midnight snacks. FOOD: The food was very good. Burgers are juicy and the meat is packed with flavor, even the buns were delicious! The fries are seasoned and fried perfectly (I prefer them on the softer side) and the coslaw was nice and light! Loved it. PRICE: Prices aren't TOO expensive. You're getting a pretty big portion and the quality is very good. SERVICE: The staff seemed very nice and efficient. If you order takeout, the server will make sure that you're not waiting for too long. read more

I've only been to Schwartz's so when I was proposed to go there for dinner, I was sure, why not? I wanted to try and see how the other smoked meat places stacked up to the Famous Schwartz. In the end, after looking over the menu, our group decided to go with just sandwiches and its meat was not salty...two big sandwiches that came with fries and split by three people was enough to fill us up Service was pretty efficient . Place and decoration looked like a 50's restaurant which I quite like the look and feel. Loved that it is open 24 hours and so close to where I am located so that I don't need to go to DOWNTOWN to get my fix of smoked meat when I am in town :) read more

Hadn't been here for a while and as always was really looking forward to it. It was after 1 PM and the restaurant was at least 75% full. I heard people at other tables telling their servers that they were in from Toronto and other places. No doubt that this is a must go to place for a lot of out of owners. The restaurant was clean. The hostess and my server were very friendly. The desert case was full of phenomenal looking treats. For me it's nice to look at but I'm always stuffed by the time I finish my meal. I ordered the Super Smoked Meat plate (medium fat) that comes with fries and coleslaw. The coleslaw and the fries are some of the best in town. The rye bread is awesome. Of course I was there for the smoked meat. This time, I found the smoked meat to taste as awesome as it usually does. However, the meat wasn't as fall apart tender as I have known it to be in the past. It wasn't tough but the texture was different thanI remembered. This is still a four star review. Maybe it was me. Maybe someone pulled a brisket out of the steamer a little early. My past experiences have been so good here that I'm not going to think anything less of the restaurant until I give it another try soon. read more

Great Reuben wrap. Fries were a little soggy. Service was better than average. Prices were ok. Atmosphere is good

Dunn's is a great chain if you want quick and comforting smoked meat. The meals are hearty and flavorful and the meat is always juicy and flavorful. I've had their burgers, sandwiches, poutines and even their smoked meat fried rice. Everything I've had so far has been super tasty. I will say that their fries are one of the best ones I've ever had! The prices can be a little bit expensive but it's nothing that will break your bank. They even have breakfast which is your classic toast and eggs (and smoked meat). Nothing too special there but still good. read more

I'll explain right away: I'm pregnant- so when I had a super random craving for food at midnight, my SO jumped at the chance of bringing me to Dunn's since it is open 24 hours. It was the first time I had been to Dunn's on Decarie and it was delicious. There were at least 4 other tables full of people when we arrived close to 12AM. The service was quick and very courteous. My SO ordered the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and gravy. He really enjoyed it, but he did say the potatoes were a bit lumpy. Some people like lumpy mashed potatoes though, so to each their own! I ordered the Spaghettini Bolognese (I know- who orders pasta at a diner that is famous for their smoked meat, right?) and it was delicious. I almost wanted to tell the waitress that I am pregnant when she saw that I used up 3/4 of the parmesan cheese container but she didn't say a word- (very polite, thank you). I loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The walls are covered in beautiful artwork and they also have 3 televisions so we were able to watch the replay of the hockey game. We didn't order any dessert this time, but on our way out, when I saw the beautiful cakes, I almost regretted it- they look amazing. Overall a great experience and I would definitely go back to try the rest of the menu. read more

Big fan of Dunn's due to a few reasons: - Opens 24/7 - Smoked meat, smoked meat, and smoked meat! - Affordable price - Huge generous portions - Down to earth service, nothing fancy flashy, just people who do their job and do it correctly! Here are the cons though: - Sometimes limited choice if you go in the early AMs (1-6am) - Could taste better since Schwartz has better smoked meat than Dunns But I'm a fan! read more
