    I hate to say it...but I don't get the hype around Smoke's. My husband and I went for lunch the other day and I was expecting a lot based on some of the reviews I've seen. But honestly? New York Fries is better. I know. I'm heart broken too. The interior is great - they've got a pretty small space, but there is a ton of seating. It's a little plaid heavy, but hey, that's the schtick right? I'm good with it. And they have a huge menu, so I was really optimistic. We ordered the regular poutine and the perogy poutine. The portion sizes are great - I was stuffed after. So it's a good value for money...if you like gravy that doesn't have any taste to it at all. I want to taste the gravy if I'm getting poutine! The curds were bland, and the fries were okay, so I was overall pretty disappointed with my order. The perogy poutine was a bit better because of the ham chunks interspersed within the fries. The perogy was medocre at best - it tasted like it was from one of those big bags at the grocery store that you reheat. But the ham gave the gravy more taste, so this one was better over all. I appreciate that Smoke's does vegetarian gravy and that they have a huge menu, but maybe they should perfect their gravy before going all out first?

    Bacon cheeseburger poutine
    Si Hui C.

    I've never heard of anything called poutine before. So when we were just strolling along the bay downtown Halifax and stumbled across this awesome delicacy, I had no chance but to fall on love w a it. We ordered the bacon cheeseburger (perhaps the most sinful of all). It was wonderful! Chunks of beef and fried bacon, lots of cheddar and mozzarella cheese, gravy (not unlike what they use for KFC's whipped potatoes) and of course their generously cut fries. I began writing this review with 5 stars, but I felt my throat close up due to the heavy flavor as I was trying to finish it up. Turns out it's a bit too much for me, with regards to quantity and taste. Still, I would choose it any day to fill my tummy :D

    Country Style poutine

    Tossing down against the local king of poutine, Willy's, Smoke's recently opened up directly across the street from Willy's, and with more regular hours, a more diverse menu and a less sketchy set up, Willy's has some serious competition on their hands. I come in on a Thursday after work and upon entering I am immediately greeted by loud rock music and and equally loud design scheme. There's a chalkboard and available chalk and what looks like random scrawling of people who were out at the Dome on the previous night. I may be in a suit and tie, but I dig it. Smoke's isn't large and seats no more than 12 at bars in the middle of the room and around the sides. There's a steady flow of people coming and going, running the gamut of all levels of society - suited professionals, starving students and a lovely young lady who was rocking the "hot librarian" look like no other, and probably wasn't a poutine regular judging from her figure. But yeah....back to that food stuff I'm supposed to write about.... With a menu that sports what I counted to be 18 different poutines, there is a lot of choices here. I settle on the Country Style, and choose the regular size ($6.99) as I want to be able to walk out of here. With large chunks of chicken, bacon and caramelized onions and mushrooms in addition to the usual gravy and cheese curds, this was a meal unto itself. The chicken is seems too uniform in shape to be anything but from frozen, but it isn't dry and let's face it, it's chicken. The chopped bacon is plentiful and delicious, and is still crisp with lends a nice textural contrast to the rest of this hot mess. The onions and mushrooms soothe my food guilt by being vegetables and are quite tasty themselves, although the caramelized onions have been seasoned with too much thyme and in the absence of any bacon, tends to dominate the flavour of a given forkful of poutine. The gravy is good, although thinner and somewhat lost amongst all the other toppings. The curds, while tasty, don't seem to have that squeak that poutine pros require. Me, I love anything cheese and continue to stuff my face. The fries have a good potato flavour and are crisp, even to the very last chip. The containers are cardboard boxes that are reminiscent of your stereotypical Chinese-takeout box, and are lined with some sort of plastic which will keep your pants grease free when one of these nights you're sitting on the wall by the church, munching on Smoke's and watching some poor drunk get thrown in a paddy wagon. Also, they have sriracha as a condiment. Bonus points!

    There is nothing like cheese curds and gravy...who needs the fries? This is a great place with tons of choices, even VEGETARIAN choices! Yes you veggies can enjoy too!!! The staff are awesome, the music is awesome, and with all the hills surrounding I at least work off 1/4 of the calories! The only downside, in my opinion, is that there is no SMALL size, the reg is way too big for me, and I cant share cause my boyfriend is weird and likes crazy things on his poutine! I would like a little more flavor to the gravy as well, even a little more pepper!! I cant wait to go back...though I'm sure my waistline can!

    I've just popped a TUMS as I'm writing this. Those with stomach of steel can read further. Just got out of a late meeting and wanted something within a few blocks and cheap. Being after 1pm, the joint was empty. I quickly went up to the counter and asked the advertised poutine outside - beef curry poutine. I wasn't sure of the size, so I picked large. Well mistake #1. Unless you'll be sharing this, go for the regular. After a 8 min wait, I got my hot box of gooey fries. At first it tasted fine, fries were still incredibly hot if you dug to the bottom. But as time went on the heaviness of the poutine was coming on. Cheese was a bit light and the fries were ok. Not overly impressed for what I got for 12$ (large poutine & pop) especially now the flavors have lingered and the meal has settled. I think the sauce is a bit off. From the previous reviews I will +1 to that. Presentation and service was fine, maybe I'll stick to the traditional dishes next time, or if I happen to in the area at 1am. Seating is limited ~10 so this is a take & go spot.

    bacon poutine
    Lexi S.

    Our first stop after we landed in Halifax! And our first poutine ever! They had so many choices, it was hard to decide but I ended up with the bacon poutine. Wish there had been a few extra cheese curds, but otherwise very tasty. Tried some of my sister's pulled pork poutine and that was good, too. The only other "negative:" for me was that the fries were a bit soggy by the time I got to the bottom - not sure if that's normal for poutine though. Wish I had had a chance to try the other kinds!

    Philly Cheesesteak Poutine
    Colleen M.

    This was our first time trying poutine, so I did some research. My husband is a vegetarian and this place had the option of a vegetarian mushroom gravy- so we had to try it. I got a little adventurous and tried the Philly cheesesteak poutine. I'm a Philly girl, had to get it. It was good, but obviously extremely heavy when it hits your stomach! My only critique is that the roasted red peppers on top are not really Philly cheesesteak related at all. My husband got the vegetarian poutine and his was really good. Not crowded at all in the middle of the afternoon, food came out quickly. It's open super late for your drunken poutine needs. Tons of options on the menu.

    I work over nights at a hotel on back shift…read more I always enjoy when places are open super late so that I'm able to order from them, and not starve halfway through my shift. Last night, I ordered two orders. One for me, and another for my coworker. I had the chicken schwarma, and they had a small pizza with sausage, pineapple, and one other thing I can't remember, and a small garlic fingers with donair sauce. The price was not an issue, seeing as how mine came to 11.70, and his came to 27. What we did have a problem with however, was how long the driver took. It was almost an hour after we ordered that we got our food, and it had gotten a bit cold. I can understand not knowing where your going, but that's what google maps is for. Regardless, the driver was relatively nice. The pizza was disappointing for him, and the garlic fingers had a bit more crust than normal. The schwarma had too much sauce, and everything was concentrated on one side, so the meat was on one side, while the onions and tomato was on the other. Wasn't really that flavourful either. A bit bland in my opinion. I've ordered from here twice before, and figured the third time if give them the benefit of the doubt. I won't be ordering again, but the people are very nice. :)

    Normally I have always been happy with the Fairview location, but last night I ordered a large…read moreDonair. The delivery was slow and the Donair was cold and even after reheating just wasn't good. Very disappointed!
