Tarmac - Montréal

I ordered the Poutine before leaving and it was a unique twist on the classic dish, made with Barbecue Style Prime Rib.

Is it justifiable to give a one-star rating to a restaurant in an airport, where patrons only eat out of necessity?

We even received menus. The service was slow and inattentive. The food was average at best, definitely not worth the high prices. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else for a better dining experience.

We just stumbled upon this small bistro while wandering Saint-Denis looking for lunch. There were many other decent options, but none that moved us. The menu drew us in, but then the food, pricing and service convinced us. Most lunches were about $10 US, including a wonderful soup, side salad and delicious sandwich (mine was panini with grilled vegetables and pesto). The omelets and burgers also looked wonderful. The servers started off in French but were very happy to switch to English, were attentive and pleasant. We will most definitely return here.

We totally lucked out with this restaurant..On our last day in Montreal, not wanting the trendy type of restaurants we walked and walked and finally decided to go to St. Denis and know that we would find a good restaurant. After looking at about 10 different ones, we knew that we wanted a Bistro style brunch lunch. We found Tarmac! A family run Algerian inspired bistro. What unique and tasty flavours. Enjoy the Cheddar and Duck Confit Rosti. yum! Will definitely be back the next time that I am in Montreal!
