I stopped by Gerard Patates after a soccer match with my boys, and we were pleasantly surprised! The staff and owner were incredibly friendly, and the food was fresh and delicious. We ordered a submarine trio and two trio cheeseburgers, and everything was great. While we were eating, the staff surprised us with a complimentary plate of freshly made donut holes—at least 20 of them! It was such a thoughtful gesture, and the kids were thrilled. I can’t make it every week, but I’ll definitely be back once a month. Long live Gerard Patates!

Been here since the small establishment 30+ years ago. This is hands down the best poutine I've ever had in my life, and never ceases to be every year I go back. Staff is perfect, the original owners and cooks were gone for the first time today on my visit, but the people they hire are doing a great job continuing the tradition and recipes👌. Very polite and nice, they know what they're doing, flavourful souvlaki and obviously much better seats than they had back in the day. I'm so happy for this place and I've converted many friends visiting who also think the same!

I get it that it's a fast food place but don't offer a salad if you're not going to wash it first. I paid over 11$ for a Caesar salad (no extras). The lettuce was dirty and to top it off- a blue collar worker with very dirty hands helped himself to the croutons behind the counter. I guess he's a regular customer so they don't bother him. He reached into the jar of croutons, took out a handful - put his grubby hands to his mouth and then reached in a couple more times. These are the very same croutons that were on my salad! Ewwwww!

If you are looking for a place to eat poutine, this is the place to be! These are the best poutines I have ever eaten. It s definitely the only place if I want to eat poutine in Laval that I would go. Real fries with full cheese and exquisite sauce. Served by a team that is always smiling and in a good mood, without forgetting unrivaled speed of service. Friday is poutine, it s not a routine, it s an addiction! Thanks to the team!

Correct, nothing more. Portions are small for the price. In terms of cleanliness, an effort needs to be made: bathroom not clean and floor sticky. And they ask for a tip when ordering. Tipping requested with orders at the counter and even before receiving service, really?!

I found the dishes to be of average quality. Although the portions were generous, the fries, which were visibly frozen, lacked flavor and the fried food seemed a little dated. The sandwiches were OK, but nothing more. I find that the prices are quite high for the quality offered, especially when you know that it is possible to find better in downtown Montreal or in restaurants specializing in poutine. Overall, Im a little disappointed.

Their poutine, when its good, is excellent. It happens very often that it is not good. It really depends on the freshness of the ingredients I think and its not always fresh.

Local Guide
September 22, 2024

Very expensive prices compared to similar places, and the poutine that comes in combo is so small, completely ridiculous. The smallest poutine I had served in a similar restaurant (dont be fooled by the photos of other peoples poutines, its not this size that is served in the combos). The taste is average too, nothing special. $17 for 2 hotdogs + small poutine....I would have needed 2x orders to eat for 1 person...

No problem on site! Today I ordered 3 hot dogs and I clearly mentioned that I didnt want a lot of condiments to prevent my hot dogs from being soggy. They delivered me 3 soaked hot dogs. The manager was kind enough to exchange them for me but I did not appreciate the attitude of the delivery man who brought them to me. Its not my fault they were wrong. I am polite and a good customer. I pay, its normal that I want to eat what I ordered. I advise you to go there.

Same comment as a previous customer; the cheese from the poutine at the bottom of the plate and the fries on top?! Strange... And the sauce has a, shall we say, particular taste... but to each their own, I guess. FYI: almost $45 for 2 routines, 4 drinks and a popcorn chicken. Correct service, nothing more.

June 22, 2024

This Tuesday, I got a club sandwich to take away. When I got home I was unable to finish my meal (which never happens to me) because it was so bad: limp fries without any common sense and really questionable chicken. But the worst thing was that I suffered from food poisoning which put me out for two days. I must say that this is the first time that such a situation has happened and that normally it is very good. However, given this very bad experience, the bond of trust is broken and I will not go back there again.

When brought over it was cold, when I told that to the driver, he turns around and tells me You don t like it next time come and get it yourself, talk about class.

Food was not bad for fast food, but still not high quality, but the worst is that they handle everything you will be eating bearer hand, not even a broken glove, and no mask on and they talk and it could be all over, so be aware that whatever you will eat there will be touched thousands times... Apart from that fact, that at the end is the main, they prepare everything in front of your eyes, they pack and you will be out of the place in no more than 10 min, they are kind and work fast, so if you are really in a rush for food, it could be a choice to be considered

I m giving this place one star because I can t give it zero stars. The older woman behind the counter was a sweetheart, and the customer service was great as I said she was a sweetheart. But, the quality of the food or should I say the lack of quality was ridiculous. Having worked in the kitchen industry for many years I know when french fries have been reheated in old oil half a dozen times. I have been to other fast food places like this, that share the same name on the north shore, and they were much better. This one in particular is absolute garbage. Enter at your own risk. And when you re sitting in the car, regretting it, I told you so.

On the other hand, I asked if he had chicken or other style versions (like halal) for my colleague, and the chef said that he only had real hot dogs...consider that a hot dog is a bread and a sausage, there was a little wack connotation...I found it average and I was legitimately embarrassed for my colleague.
