The food here is truly exceptional, making it one of the best meal options, especially for students looking for quality and taste. The staff is incredibly polite, and the customer service is outstanding, ensuring a welcoming and pleasant experience for everyone! I’ve been enjoying their food for the past two years, and I still find myself craving it every other day—it’s just that addictive!

Ordered takeout, so can only comment on the food! Food - 5/5 - Chicken Bowl with 2 sauces - Rated this high for what it is and overall value... If you're looking for a healthy rice bowl, with flavour and some variety, this place is great. It's like the French version of Chipotle or Freshii... perfect when you're ordering in on a random night, don't want to spend money, but are looking for something healthy and tasty. I can't remember the sauces I ordered, but you get to pick what you want, so it's great!

We ordered online and picked it up. The restaurant looked like a great atmosphere to eat. Food was fantastic! Great quality, healthy options! Would love to see this place come to the US!

I decided to have dinner here last night on 11/02, and I want to say that it was a great experience. The number of employees was very sufficient to provide respectful, fast service and a delicious meal, especially the handsome young man who was putting the chicken flavours, even though he refused to reveal his name, but I want to thank him very much for his professionalism, busy with the chicken on the grill and giving meals to customers at the same time, and yet he kept his smile, his excellent service and his flexibility in handling special requests. I will eat here every time I see this team is there, and I highly recommend this restaurant

I was looking for something quick, taste and somewhat healthy then google recommended me this place which was walking distance from my hotel. I got rouge mini with lemon chicken, brown rice, tzatziki sauce, black beans and corn. Service was very quick. It has amazing taste, chicken was flavourful and cooked perfectly! My tummy is happy. I wish they have it in Vancouver, please open one!

Poulet rouge is one of my favourite places to eat in the city with my friends and family! This is by far one of my favourite poulet rouge locations in Montreal. I have been to many other locations but none compare to this one. First of all the staff was very friendly and service was quick, I asked for an extra topping expecting that I would have to pay but the employee said it’s fine. When I walked in I didn’t see that much seating, I didn’t realize that there is a whole second floor. Prices are affordable, bathrooms are decent for downtown area. As a local Montreal resident definitely will be returning when in the area!

It was the first time I tried a bowl, I didn’t have any expectation but it was pretty good, tasty chicken. I liked it. The only thing was that the place was crowded and they took a while to process orders and the tables weren’t clean and people dragged the chairs and It is quite noisy.

Tried this place for the first time; the staff was very kind to explain about the menu! Tried the rouge bowl with BBQ chicken and it was delicious! I loved the spicy mayo sauce and all the veggies blended really well! The price is also very affordable and the taste was so good!

This red chicken is absolutely amazing. Every time I go there, I have incredible service, always smiling and efficient, both when its busy and when its not busy. In addition, the quality of the dish is always impeccable. The ingredients always fresh, the chicken always perfectly juicy. This St Catherines red chicken doesnt compare at all to the others in Montreal. Today, I almost shed a tear at how much the service touched me. Thank you red chicken

Me and my brother both got food poisoning eating here, he had a volcano bowl with brown rice, peppers, jalapeños, both cheeses, tzatziki, cucumbers and red onions. I had a volcano bowl with bulgur wheat, both cheeses, jalapeño, cucumber, red onions, peppers

November 25, 2024

I am deeply disappointed with the management of this restaurant. Not only was the food not up to my expectations, but I also witnessed unacceptable behavior towards a food distributor. Respect and fairness are essential in any business, and this restaurant seems to be severely lacking in these values. I do not recommend this place and will not return

i would not talk about people who are in the surrounding area of the store because when youll go at night ( mostly between 10pm to 12am) youll find homeless and addicted people but its alright for me and for anybody who wants just to eat and go, i would like to talk about the staff who works there, i dont think they work there at anytime, but todays shift 23 October at 11pm, i was served by the best shift ive ever frequented in Montreal since my arrival, even though you see stress and the fatigue in their face, they were more than kind, cheerful and helpful and they put too much toppings, because i dont eat vegetables i asked only for cheese and crispy onion and tzatziki sauce, you would imagine how much they put to me and even asked me if i needed more, always in other poulet rouge i take rouge bol with same thing and i eat it all because they put a less reasonable amount of toppings, but with those guys, i ate only 40% of it and i was full! i am keeping it for later,(keep in mind i didnt even tip but i wishes if i did) i kindly ask the manager of the store to give them all a raise! they were 3 girls and 3 boys

Each visit is a delight in the mouth and for the eyes, a very warm atmosphere with the background music. The poutine was super good, all bowls can be accompanied by 2 to 4 choices of toppings out of a choice of more than 15 accompaniments. The chicken cooked on the grill can be topped with one of 4 flavors of sauce, for my part the sweet BBQ is my favorite. The prices are very good for the quantity offered, the staff is very friendly, polite and generous. Some choice of more beverages will be nice, Root Beer ;). A beautiful place in the sun for a more than perfect Sunday. Parking: Sometimes you have to go in circles, but opposite the IGA has plenty of space

I work very close to this place and often here I take my lunch, there is a girl behind the counter who has her hair dyed red, she serves vegetables very badly, they make her not want to eat more here. On top of everything, he serves clients with a bad attitude, if he doesnt like customer service, then he should look for another job, if I see her again behind that counter, serving, Id better go to lunch at another redtaurante

customer service is so bad nobody smiles and they re so mean . It s like they re forced to be her The food is good tho.

My partner got the garlic chicken, guacamole, tomatoes, onions and cucumber. Both bowls were super tasty and good price / value. This is a bit like fast food so service was solid and seating was basic but if you are looking for tasty, healthy, customizable food for good price I recommend Poulet Rouge on Ste Catherine.

Food 5/5. Good service, but we mostly get answers in English. Fortunately I am bilingual, but that is not why I give 1/5 for the service. The reason why I give 1/5 is because of one of the employees who gives you an attitude and withholds your order simply because you didnt understand the order number she mentioned. It was November 12 around 5 p.m. and she was the only one in line wearing a mask next to the Grill. Hoping that the problem will be resolved next time or my order might end up in his face if it happens again. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian fillet available.

Can t believe it took me two years of living in MTL to come here. Many people I know spoke so highly of Poulet Rouge and now I see why Fresh, filling, tasty, and reasonably priced! I ordered two one flavour rouge bowls for us and one is easily enough for two lunches. I also appreciate how our bowls were thoughtfully presented - they looked just as good as they tasted. Service-wise, my takeout order was processed and ready for me very quickly and served by friendly staff. Overall, Poulet Rouge is a great choice for a filling, relatively healthy, and budget-friendly meal!
