Bentley's: Stay away!

If you're allergic to peanuts STAY AWAY from this place! It's crawling with peanuts at the bar. The staff have no clue about cross-contamination and are even insulting when asked about the peanuts. To the rude waiter who told me that Loblaw's also has peanuts... it's not the same issue. It's not enough to say that you don't use peanut oil. Learn about the very real dangers of cross-contamination, how customers and staff who handle the peanuts can leave traces of peanut residue all over the restaurant and perhaps even on your plates or food. No peanut-allergic person would eat at this place, but the staff still needs to show courtesy, understanding and allergy awareness to the people who come in to inquire. Very poor attitude. And really... are peanuts THAT important to customers at the bar??

Scores: Searching for Chicken, go elsewhere...

Typical north american style of familial restaurant. They serve chicken and ribs. The prices are not too good for what it is. Luckily the what you can eat salad bar was free when we went. It's noisy and full and it is a very large restaurant. The waitress are nice and friendly. Service is good but the food... beurk. I took the chicken fingers that comes with cabbage salad and a lot of fries. The chicken was good alone, missing a bit of spices but the sauce that came to dip it in. Oh gosh! It was terrible, it tasted bitter... I was dreaming of Mc Donald's sweet and sour dip... can you imagine! Cedric took the chicken nuggets wrap... A bit dry and very greasy with the mayonnaise. It was a disaster... I didn't even finish half of my dish!!!

Favorite Dish: I was desapointed since last time I went 6 years ago in the one on St Jean blvd in Dollard des Ormeaux, I liked it. Maybe they don't have the exact same recepies... I would of liked to be at St Hubert just in front, at least it would have been good...

Chalutier MLM: Fish and Chip as good as it can get!

Marie-Claude 124 reviews

This is a medium size restaurant, smoke free! with home made cuisine. It is a very popular restaurant. If you get there past 12.30 at lunch time and 6.00 at supper time you get in line for at leat half an hour. The popularity explains the quality of the food that is served at Chalutier MLM.

Favorite Dish: The fish and chip is home made. It is incredible! The fish is so tender and has just enough chapelure on. I loved it! I am surely going back for that! And I've been told by one of my collegues at work that goes there often, that their chicken fingers are home made too, white chiken meat with home made chapelure! Wow! I am going to taste that on next time for sure!

Chanchhaya: Don't miss the Thai and Cambodgian delicious foods

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

It is a small familial restaurant. They have a nice decorations, imitation of stupa, scluptures of hindu divinities, etc. It is really nice. They have a lunch menu (soup, springrolls, your dish, tea/coffee and an almond cookie) for 8-9 can $ and up. And even for supper the prices "? la carte" are around 8$ a dish. They have written beside each dish if it's spicy hot or not.
What I would of liked is knowing what dish is from Thai cuisine or Cambodgian cuisine.

Favorite Dish: I've chosen the thai beef. It was a bit spicy hot and really tasty. My collegues took the Sea Food brochettes and that look delicious too. The service is good and smily. I will for sure go back soon! This is one good thai restaurant. I've eaten in a better thai restaurant in Montreal, but for the quality/price this is one of the best.

Eggspectation: Specialty EGGS

Name of restaurant

Newly constructed with very high ceilings. The tables are spaced well apart which gives room for the ladies with there baby carriages to have them beside the table. Very modern deco with encyclopedia books as decor piled along the wall shelves. Open kitched where you can see your meal being prepared by the 6 Chefs. Also very wide booths that could sit 6 people.
There is also a bar dining room which has outside view with lots of windows and sun.

Favorite Dish: I had smoked meat plate, with French fries and dill pickles and rye bread. Simonne had vegetable soup and toasted tomatoe and swiss cheese sandwich.
There is a great choice available of all types of omlettes, salads etc.
Breakfast type meals served all day ( pancakes, french toast etc.)
