Snowdon Deli

Delicious food, great atmosphere, friendly staff and prompt service.

First time there and I had a lox bagel. One of the most delicious things I've ever eaten.

Snowdon Deli means serious business! Everyone is head over heels for Schwart s, but it doesn t come close to the service, abondance, quality, confort, menu options and parking that Snowdon Deli has to offer. Try the Smoke Meat Poutine, it s certainly worth the visite.

Loved it. Great value. Very popular with what seemed to be old Jewish folks. Lots of delicious meat for your money.

Comfort food + good people, but there are better places to eat.

Good kosher meats, salads, baked goods. Very friendly staff and service.

Very good eggplant salad and mini danish pastries.

Smoked meat was execrable. Worse than smoked meat from the grocery counter. Very spongey texture and sliced too thick.Tasted more like corned beef from a can.

Classic Jewish deli. They know what they are doing and good service. Neighborhood reminded us of Queens.

Not bad food but not exceptionally better than any other smoke meat sandwich icon in the city. Quite pricey too, may be worth seeing other options

One of the best smoked meat in Montreal ...
No alcohol on the other hand.

One day when I was having lunch there I had asked for Dr.Browns cream soda an they had none, whilst they had about every other Dr.Browns drink. I ordered half of a smoked meat sandwich, cold, no mustard; it was very delicious, but it had an extreme amount of smoked meat on it.

One of my go to places for a traditional deli experience! Smoked meat is among the best in the city, and I love their kreplach soup and Greek salad with the Greek dressing (whatever is in that dressing is perfect). My go to dish is the smoked meat Benedict; which in my opinion is the best Benedict in the city, having amazing hollandaise sauce and succulent smoked meat. Definite must go!

Good food, but no parking available & there is often a lineup waiting to get in.

You can step back in time to experience a classic Montreal deli that has changed very little over my lifetime. Some greats are gone, like the Brown Derby in the Van Horne Shopping Centre, but Snowdon Deli endures. A must visit if you are on an eating tour of Jewish Montreal, which should also include Schwartz's and Wilenski's Light Lunch.

Expect a gruff waitress to casually serve you the best smoked meat sandwich you've ever had. A far cry from Schwartz's hit and miss, often dry and overrated smoked meat that you have to wait in long lines for. Can't believe I lived 5 minutes away from for 10 years and only went for the first time after moving to Toronto.

A very good smoked meat, an indisputable deli restaurant in Montreal

Awesome deli....really good smoked meat. Will definitely return if I get the chance

The hot corned beef sandwich is perfect.
This is what what you should be ordering.

one of the best smokemeat in Montreal. fast and efficient service. tasty and quality sandwich. Their classic smoked meat recipe is super good, note that they make 2 versions of smoked meats. The counter for meat and other take out is great. good atmosphere and very reasonable price.

The montreal smoked meat here is better than Schwartz and Dunns in my opinion. Plus the service from Hart is really from the heart!!!

Best smoked meat in town .it's old but I liked the retro atmosphere ,very small tables

Good deli place for a quick lunch or dinner..very good atmosphere and liked the staff. Very courteous..

Shared a medium old fashioned smoked meat and the brisket sandwiches and have no complaints .... I almost want to say the brisket was better! Both were delicious and tender.

Great little Jewish diner! Try the smoked meat sandwich and matzo ball soup. A good place for brunch on the weekend. They also have a deli meat counter.

My husband and I have been going to this restaurant and deli for the past year. The first time we went there, my husband had asked one of the gentleman behind the deli counter if they sold pork. He was extremely offended and told him that they did not have pork whatsoever in this restaurant. Which is fine because we do not eat pork. We trusted them and ever since we've been getting our salami from there.

We went back today and we wanted to order some different style of salami. The other gentleman behind the counter sliced a piece for us to try, while my husband was telling him that we do not eat pork and how we went to a different butcher and they sell pork, and this is why we come to this place. After we had eaten it, he told us that it had pork! We told him that his colleague told us they do not sell pork. He then said that this type of salami has pork in it. We are extremely disappointed that we trusted them for the past year and we were lied to. We will not be going back there.

Been putting off going here for years, and I don't know why I waited so long. Excellent smoked meat, perfect deli atmosphere. I haven't finished my smoked meat tour of the Island yet, but I know this ranks high.

The client service can be better. Find all Russian products.

I love this restaurant! It's rustic, old but, it's so good !!!!!!

Absolutely the best! Great service and the best carp and strudel.

Mixed experiences. Some items are delicious, some terrible. Lack of parking is annoying. Selection is decent and you can chose to eat in or take out.

One of the last true Jewish delicatessens left in Montreal. The smoked meat sandwich is copious (forget ordering lean meat...go for the medium or full fat!), the fish is great, chicken soup and knaidlach is what you would expect......after all it is a deli! Don't forget that it is closed on Friday nights and all day Saturday.

My wife Lorraine and I stopped in for a couple of the best smoked meat sandwiches before travelling home to Toronto. Best Deli EVER!

Excellent deli and smoked meats. The tongue sandwich may be the best on the planet.

Always phenomenal food and friendly service. One of my go to spots when I come to montreal.

My favourite Montreal deli. Many great dishes for dine-in, takeout, or delivery

Fantastic selection and service. Great selection for Passover.

Authentic deli with original classic decor and friendly staff. Delicious smoked meat piled high on rye with traditional mustard. Many counter selections for take-out and generous amount of seating for dine-in. Located in the charming neighbourhood of Snowdon.

Great smoked meat, staff were attentive and friendly.

They deliver a big order to my house every month and the food is always fresh and of the highest quality. We prefer their smoked meat to Schwartz's as it is never greasy or tough.

20 years living in the area and I've neglected to have weekend brunch at this Montreal institution. To begin with its not to busy, a good crowd that turns over without the place becoming a zoo which is typical for Montreal weekend brunch. Omelette, bagel, beef sausage, and pancakes were really good. Take the time to check out this place if you haven't already.

Classic authentic Jewish deli dishes. Laid back service.

Cozy long-standing diner that delivers value for the price. Good smoked meat, though I prefer Schwartz s.

Smoked meat poutine was AMAZING! Not stingy on the meat or cheese. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is so comfy :) We were served by Vanni and he was such a sweetheart. He hooked us up with some yummy pastries...thank you! Vicky was very helpful in pointing out some local attractions and places to go. What a great place to check out while visiting.

Smoked meat is one of the great in montreal. Setting is super old school worth a visit

Superb customer service, nicest people I have dealt with, I am going pretty often since I am taking french classes nearby, and the old fashioned smoked meat sandwich is always amazing, if you are nearby or not, you should stop by.

I had heard great things about montreal smoked meat sandwiches. This place isn t as well known among tourist and is more of a local place. I got the classic smoked meat sandwich which was amazing!

Good smoked meat, tongue, herring ... on the other hand I take out, the room service is correct no more.

Classic breakfest, classic price with jewish-deli-style options.

Smoked meat!!! Very good family owned place. Didnt try the poutine

The classic smoked meat. They have a white bean soup that is great. Come hungry!

The best smoked meat sandwich on the island. Very friendly staff and reasonably priced

Typical jewish deli with plenty of seating and an atmosphere of regulars patrons and a very 90's decor. I had la soup du jour and smoked meat sandwich all of reasonable price and taste.

The menu has a lot of variety, including some vegetarian options. The restaurant is very clean, and the staff are friendly. I love the blintzes and the whitefish salad.. Most dishes are huge portions, so you may end up taking some home. Or if you're not very hungry, many of the appetizers are generous.

I like it lots and it's a great, real deli. However i dont understand why people crack up for these guys above The Main Steakhouse or other choices. I find their smoked Meat okay, not great. The babka and the ensemble of options though make this a great choice regardless.

Love Snowdon deli..half sours are great...really everything is great including the service.

Wow !

The food here was so satisfying !! Loved the roast beef and hot mustered. Definitely try out this place - a flashback of traditional urban comfort food !

Old school delis are hard to come by. Snowmen deli does it right. Great takeout too.

Classic Montreal Jewish deli. Good smoked meat, latkas and more

I was able to order something ten minutes before I was about to get there by car, and they had it ready for me when I got there. Great service!
