This place doesn't need much reviews . It's a Montreal classic . The food is good , portions are decent . Montrealers love the place. So It's always busy . So book on advance and be prepared to wait a bit if you have booked during the busy hours .
This place has a lot of history and reputation. I finally got here to try some smoked meat but at 10:45 they weren't serving lunch. I managed to get a Reuben sandwich to go instead. The fries/hash browns were mediocre (a bit hard) with little spices or seasoning. The sandwich was piled high with corned beef, Swiss, sauerkraut and that special sauce. I'd recommend eating if there instead of to go, because it gets messy! It was a filling meal for sure but I still prefer the smoked Montreal meat over corned beef. For $18 it was a little steep but worth trying.
Visiting Montreal on a quick layover and was recommended Reubens so I could visit St Catherine's St and Old Montreal. Huge plate of food came out immediately. The Montreal smoked meat was super tender and delicious. Don't know if I'm a heretic for suggesting this but damn I would love a light toast on that rye bread. Fries were super average. Great pickle. Even better cheesecake!

These folks have some serious Montreal smoked meat! Here's a sandwich which is delicious an will stick to your ribs! I doubt you're walking away hungry from this place.
The waiter was nice, enjoyed the experience but felt somewhat rushed to eat and go. Perhaps it was rushed as there was a Devils and Hab's Game starting shortly in the neighbourhood.
Still enjoyed it and would go back.
Huge portions, so be prepared to eat. They literally give you a mountain of fries with each sandwich meal. The BBQ Jack Daniels short rib cheese melt is super melty and cheese, it was delicious. The famous reuben sandwich with half a pound of Montreal smoked meat was alright. After a couple of bites, it was a little much.
Huge portions! Be prepared to eat when you come here. The sandwiches are huge, and packed with meat. I had the super sandwich - it was packed high with cuts of meat, although some of the cuts were a bit on the fatty side. The overall atmosphere is like your neighbourhood diner, but slightly more refined. The staff are super friendly. Try the flatbread pizza too - it's delicious. Great place to eat before shopping through St. Catherine street:)
This restaurant is one that I go when I need comfort food in Montreal. They have some great salads and entrees that are well portioned and priced. As it is a deli, they have a great smoked meat sandwich that I enjoy, and their chicken entrees are some of my favourites!
When the restaurant is busy, the service can fall, but that hasn't stopped me from going back to the restaurant because I enjoy their food very much. It's a great restaurant that can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone: family, friends, visiting tourists alike.
I would definitely recommend getting a slice of their huge cheesecakes as it's very delicious!
Best reuben sandwich in montreal, awesome cheesecake and carrot cake

Great Smoked Meat. While not the best Montreal smoked meat I have ever eaten, it was very close! Reuben's contains a traditional delicatessen atmosphere, complete with booths, a small bar and plenty of deli meats all over the establishment. Wait staff was friendly and attentive, but the food was brilliant. Great fries, great meat, great pickles! Everything I ingested was good that evening, try out Reuben's when you're in Montreal.
Great staff. Great staff and servers, open kitchen, handsome cooks.
Reuben poutine is amazing.
Old school diner. Amazing potatoe skins. Good portions.
Nice. We went in for breakfast specifically so I could try a Montreal bagel. Wanting to go all out, I got one with lox, cream cheese, and the works for $16.00. I could've done without the mountain of lettuce (see pic), but the tomato and capers were nice. Just be careful with the cofffee--our cafe au lait had a bit of a "tang" owing to their having used sour milk! (Tip: give it a smell, first!)
Good food and value. Dinner entrees were very god and well priced. Service was pleasant and efficient. Also went there for breakfast and the items and prices were very good. I recommend you try it.
Great Lasagna. I love their lasagna, there's cheese everywhere, very meaty and tasty.
Huge smoke meat sandwich. Had the Sauerkraut smoke meat sandwich and it was so yummy. THe combo was so perfect. The sandwich was huge, could not finish it by myself.
Great food. Huge portions though - need to share is a must unless you are extremely hungry. great location on saint catherine street near all of the shops
I went with a bunch of friends to celebrate my birthday at 888 Ste Catherine .... Had a great time... Friendly staff, great food, and a great deal for your buck ( we went to the other Reunen's at 1116 Ste Catherine last year and we found the staff too stuffy and the food was too expensive)....Don't forget to have the homemade cheesecake.......Yummy
Went for breakfast and was pleasantly suprised by the large portions and reasonable prices. Standard fare of eggs and homefries delivered hot and tasty. Try the local smoked meat. Like a Denny's in the US and that's not meant in a bad way. After a long weekend of expensive and average meals this was a welcome change.
Everything tasted great. The service was fast. The famous smoked meat had a more subtle flavor than I expected, but still tasty nonetheless. The cheesecake was my favorite piece of cheesecake I’ve had. The chocolate crust and topping paired really nicely with the raspberry.
When in Montréal, a visit to an institution like Reubens is a must. It was Grand Prix weekend, and to our surprise, there wasn’t a wait.
That said, shortly after we arrived, the crowds started to roll in.
Having had a smoked meat poutine for lunch, we opted for something different.
The Philly Roast Beef Sandwich was pretty good. The bread fresh. The peppers and onions cooked well. The roast beef - on point. The only drawback was the cold cheese. It could have used some more time in the oven.
If there are mobility issues, the stairs down may turn others away.
Service was excellent. Engaging. Attentive.
Loved the authentic western vibe, food was also great. But the highlight was our server, Gregory. He was friendly, had plenty of interesting stories, and had great recommendations. Looking forward to sending him a postcard from our travels abroad!
Food was amazing. Got 2 platters to share for 3 of us. Highly recommend!
So good. Reuben’s smoked meat is far and away the best smoked meat you can get. If you prefer, do yourself a favour and order it fatty. It melts in your mouth. The waitress was also real pleasant and friendly. This will remain my go-to place in Montreal!
Great place to have dinner but what stood out for me was their amazing desserts and their cheesecake. It's one of the best I've ever had. Whenever we drive by Montreal, we make it a point to go to Reuben's for dinner.
