The Smoked meet sandwich is really good but I feel all of the hype of this restaurant kind of let's it down. It was fantastic, melt in your mouth meat but is it the best I've ever had? No. The giant pickles are fantastic but the fries are way to greasy and not very crisp. I probably would of enjoyed it more if I hadn't been told by everyone that this was the place to eat in Montreal. May eat here again but would do take away because it takes a while to get a table.

When in Montréal, Schwartz is still a must-go destination for smoked meat sandwiches. It has been around for nearly a century. We came by on a rainy weekday morning and were able to walk straight in to our pleasant surprise.
Inside the diner, not much changed since our last visit other than prices. Famous people dotted the walls including Celine Dion who also turns out to now be a co-owner! While we ordered our sandwiches, our waiter confirmed his younger self stood beside Chris Rock. But don’t count on much of a personal touch with the fast pace of service driving diner flow.
The sandwich platters ($13.25) arrived with heaping portions of smoked meat. We happily consumed these with Coke while other tables added pickle on the side. The smoked meat was well-seasoned, moist and particularly flavourful in the fattier slices. Magic with some rye bread & mustard, that’s all you need!
Old school vibe was everywhere in this small yet bustling deli shop. Ceilings were as poorly maintained as ever. Cash was paid at the front. Staff did well to manage the lineups that soon built up not long after our meal.
Not really my style. But I must admit that the meat was incredibly good and the portion was big. I would add to this sandwich some vegetables, which you can buy additionally, but I wasn’t aware of that. I thought that I would find other ingredients in sandwich- but it was only bread, meat and a bit of mustard.
To get a table we waited in the line, but luckily- only about 10 minutes. Be aware of the fact that you will not get separate table, you will seat by the shared table.
