La Friterie de La Vallee

This is a typical French Canadian fast food place where you can get the standards such as poutine and smoked meat sandwiches. We went on a Sunday night just before closing and they were gracious about serving us. Enjoy it every time I'm there!

Location: Saint-Sauveur village - street parking only. There's a public parking lot not too far away.The place: Small, with a few booths and bar-type seating. When entering the building, you find yourself at the cash register. I should mention that these guys won an award for the 'best poutine in Quebec' in 2014. This is why I decided to stop in with my poutine committee (a.k.a. my brother).The food: I wanted to love this. I mean, they won an award and Trip Advisor ratings were high. But I didn't love the poutine and neither did my brother (or my mum). The fries were great - fresh, crisp on the outside and not at all greasy. I'm pretty sure the server cooks these upon ordering rather than making a batch and letting it sit there for an hour or five. Kudos for that. The sauce, however, is another story. Lacking in flavour yet overpowered by something. Curry? Possibly. Herbage? Possibly. Paprika? This was our best guess - we're not sure what the magic ingredients are but in my opinion, this isn't a prize-winning poutine - sorry. There was hardly any cheese either - perhaps more cheese would have made a difference but.... I don't think so. I added salt to the poutine to give it more flavour which is something I never do. Service: Very friendly. No complaints here.Price point: Rip-off. A small poutine will run you a whopping $6.75. If you want a real poutine, you're better off going to La Belle Province - they're poutines are awesome. Great fries, great sauce and enough cheese. I've still got the aftertaste of the curry-herb-paprika sauce in my mouth so sadly, I won't be going back to this place.Check it out and judge for yourself.

Change of decor: Very small and cozy, good for a beer and fries but they only serve burgers and stuff. The waitress was funny and friendly

Pulled pork is fantastic, but you`re coming for the poutine (or fries) and you`re not disappointed. Warning: portions are huge!

Quelle déception! Je suis passé par là aujourd’hui en revenant de Tremblant et comme j’avais vu le propriétaire à la télé recevoir son prix du chef Juneau, je croyais que j’allais déguster quelque chose de bon. Les pommes de terre étaient anormalement foncées, cuites dans de l’huile rance et pas mangeable. Quand vous avez ce gout de vieille huile dans la bouche, c’est très désagréable. La poutine n’est pas trop santé et si en plus on nous empoisonne, ce n’est pas acceptable.
