This place is everything the reviews promise! We got to the restaurant around 2pm (thinking we'd…read moremiss the lunch rush), and there was still a line out the door. Somebody in line then mentioned that there is a "to-go" counter right next to the sit-down restaurant. This line moved pretty fast. I went with the classic hot smoked meat sandwich. It looks deceptively small, but it's a solid serving for lunch for one person. I was pretty hungry and struggled to finish it. If you try to eat your way through all that Montreal has to offer, this stop is worth it!

The meat definitely justified the wait, as it was easily the best pastrami I've ever had. It's not just a dining experience; it's a life-changing moment when you visit. The owner was more than happy to hop on a chair to take a group picture of you and your lucky friends. The wall was adorned with photos of famous people who ate at the restaurant.

Love love love this hidden Gem!!! We always knew about this…read moreplace since our families use to get catering and orders from here all the time for the holidays! They are known for jewish and kosher deli products. They've got lots of delicious favourites The staff here is super friendly and caring! They have the best babaganoush in all of Montreal and surrounding areas for realll! They even got Half sour nathan's pickles Everything here is super fresh and yummy I can't recommend them enough. Everytime we call they take the time to answer and make sure what we want is in stock! We call ahead before driving since it's a lil drive but nonetheless they actually answer and call us back to make sure they have what we're looking for. The place is very clean and lots of delicious specialties. It's a mix they got a fresh bakery on one side and then ready to eat meals all over the store ans even packaged items in the middle and throughout the store. Overall, wonderful place Amazing and caring staff great service and great items for any holiday event Cheers

After a morning of shopping, Pooh and I came here for lunch…read more We sat on the terrace since the sun was shining. The atmosphere was very casual and the service was friendly. We wanted a Margarita to start but there was no bar service so we had a pint of Rickard's Red. For lunch I ordered a chicken wrap and Pooh ordered the Moe's burger My wrap was warm; the chicken was tender and the mayonnaise aioli was delicious. The fries were crispy and reminded me of a chip wagon! Pooh's burger was very tasty and juicy; it had a bbq flavour. He enjoyed his fries too I took off one star because there was no cocktails

Good kosher food is hard to find in Canada. It's near impossible in Toronto, let alone Ontario…read more I've found one can find good Kosher food in Ottawa, but Montreal is a whole different ball game. Last time I was at Chez Benny was about 6 years ago and I'm still thinking about their Shawarma in a Laffa. I couldn't finish it and I sure as hell wanted to. Mind you, I did have a fantastic lunch for the next day. I'd put it on par with Doctor Laffa in Toronto. But it is delightful to know that there is a great option the next time I travel to Montreal (which I am severely due for). It seems from their website that they have upgraded since I have been there. Can't wait to go again!

I was dragged here by a friends with dietary restrictions. I was pretty excited to get some falafel…read morebut was unfortunately let down. The highlight was the falafel itself. It was tasty and made with green chickpeas which was nice for a change. Everything else was underwhelming. The pitas come straight from a bag without being warmed up. The salads were put in first and the falafel on top so after a few bites, all you have left is salad. Some of the salads were so salty that I couldn't eat it. Compared to other falafel I've had, it was pretty bad. It is overpriced for what it is but I was explained that this is the norm for kosher restaurants. I would not return to this restaurant.

On our 5 day trip to Montreal, we stopped here twice. The smoked meat sandwiches were great, the…read morerye bread was perfect, and while I'm not usually a mayo on beef fan, the garlic mayo was fantastic. We also got poutine which was just so-so. It's as if they offer it because everyone is supposed to serve it in Montreal. (I need to see if it's on the menu at Tim Hortons.) I also had the chopped liver, which was perhaps the best since my bubba died. For those who complain about the quantity of meat vs price, a couple of things to consider. First, 4 ounces is a perfectly respectable sandwich. If you need more than that, go to the states. Second, this is actually a kosher deli, not just kosher "style." That means prices are going to be higher. Part of that is the mechanics of supply and demand. Part of it is due to the structures of what qualifies as kosher meat. If you don't like it, eat treyf.
