It is hard finding Montreal style hand cut deli...
It is hard finding Montreal style hand cut deli in Ontario that is good. Centre street is decent. However please be aware that they are NOT kosher. The food is so-so but again at Israeli side shows the emphasis is cheapness and quantity not style or quality.
Moreover they serve beer here - enough said
This is a spectacular deli! We come here frequently. There's always a lineup during busy times, and the place is full even during slow periods.
This restaurant specializes in Ashkenaz Jewish cuisine from the Montreal Jewish community. Their Old-Fashioned Smoked Beef on Rye is their best item, with Latkes coming as a close second. My partner is partial to the Lox w/ cream cheese sandwich, and I'm partial to the chicken breast sandwich, which is served with gravy on the side for dipping. The food is spectacular because the ingredients are always top-notch.
The food is better than the service. The service isn't terrible -- but they do occasionally screw up an order. They own up for their mistakes, though: I had to schlepp back to get a part of the order that was missed, and they threw in a complementary food item -- delicious cookies -- for my trouble.
A footnote about the Smoked Beef: my partner and I are both Montreallers and so I assure the reader we KNOW good Smoked Beef when we taste it. This Smoked Beef on Rye is amongst the very best we've ever had. They hand-cut it instead of machine-slice it, which does indeed make a noticeable difference.
This popular Thornhill deli serves up traditional hand-cut smoked meat that packs plenty of flavour at an affordable price. The hot meat sandwiches are stacked on rye bread and come in a number of different varieties including classic smoked meat, corned beef or turkey pastrami.
