Staff seemed nonchalant, deadpan. Poutine was OK.
Best people good food!
I ordered two poutines using Uber Eats. They only bothered to include one of them in the bag. I ordered this to the hospital, where I have limited in/out privileges. Even if they sent a replacement, I can't go out to get it now. So I guess I'm just not having dinner today. Thanks for that.
I like the Plain Poutine, maybe add bacon. Watch out gravy is very Hot!
Awesome staff, clean, yummy, fun
Dont waste your money this is how clumpy the poutine is and this is after picking it up in the store getting home with it.... less than 20 minutes later.... That or they decided serving a dish that's been sitting out for hours is what thier paying customers are deserving of. Too bad all this hype about them being on breakfast tv etc. Dont believe everything they try advertise to you on tv for real.
They need to work on their customer service at this location paying special attention with how to respond to customer complaints. A little empathy goes a long way.
The best poutine around. ????
Great staff great food.
Thanks Smokes Poutinerie! R.I.P. 2015-2017 New Years Resolutions
So far, the best poutine is in Montreal.
Absolutely love coming to this location. I live in Pickering and will always drive down to get an amazing poutine
Poutine is a hit and miss (mostly miss), fairly pricey, and the staff need to be trained on customer service as well as told not to carry on a conversation with each other while taking an order
Good food and great service!
Food was great tables and counter dirty possibly use a cleaner rag to wipe up . Again food was great.
Crazy portions. Decent service for downtown dirty shwa
Smoke's Poutinerie serves variety of tasty poutines which are reasonably priced. They are also open for long hours, perfect for late nights Aside from that, this fast food restaurant is accessibly located along King St. East. sorrounded by different stores for your other needs. The place is clean and their friendly staffs served our request quickly. All in all, I am satisfied with my poutines and would definitely be back for other varieties.
Great place. Love the 80's rock in the background.
You wont feel good after
Fresh and hot! I'll definitely come back to this location.
Poutine was not as upscale as expected. Minimal sitting space. Pulled pork was just put on top of regular gravy, so you don't taste the pulled pork with the fries. Very small amount of actual pulled pork for what you're paying for. Relatively expensive as burgers next door are priced the same.
simply best poutine you can get in oshawa
I was really looking forward to trying their famous poutine, just to discover that their regular gravy had hardly any flavor. Really disappointed
Food was good however the service was something to be desired.
Small eating area, tables aren't cleaned, but damn this poutine is good.
Awesome staff
Staff friendly and best poutine in the area. Cheeseburger poutine is the best.
I absolutely love smokes poutinerie! We go there all the time, the staff are friendly and welcoming the sitting area is great I love reading the articles on the wall while I wait and I always write something silly on the chalkboard as well :) Definitely one of my favorite places to eat! -Kelly Leitch
Great place best customer service best employee Afzal
Was unable to wash my hands. No hand sanitizer or washroom available during a pandemic. They couldn't even direct me to the nearest washroom.
Best poutine in Oshawa!
Come hungry ask for the slaughterhouse
My boyfriend ordered a poutine last night and there was half a raw potato in it. He didn’t eat it because he didn’t want to get sick. Would not recommend for the price or quality. Also the new SkipTheDishes “refunds” are only credits!?!
So many different poutines to try, great service even better poutines! I’m addicted!
Loads of toppings and delicious cheese curds. Great place for a meal.
There are so good.
Out of all of the franchises I've been to. This one makes the best poutine.
Montreal Smoked Meat Poutine is my favourite!
So damn good but way over priced
Open till super late on the days you need it. Awesome!
I wasn't big on poutine till my husband brought home a pulled pork poutine.. This place is amazing, lots of options for poutines, fast, and they're open so late which is really amazing
Had their Thanksgiving Turkey Poutine. Turkey, Stuffing and Cranberry. Great.
Went in today to try the local "poutinarie " as it is called not too bad but I have to admit the selection is very limited when compared to where I usually go for poutine have to admit it wasn't all bad but after being a frequent visitor of the whistle stop which boasts 100+ types of poutine kinda disappointed however food was good in its limited selection.
Delicious poutine & great staff!
Super fantastic
Great expierence with this location tonight. Super impressed with the customer service from Jesse. I'm thankful to him for going out of his way. Our poutines arrived super quick and it was fantastic as well! We'll be ordering from them again very soon.
Decent food very large variety.
Amazing food and great hilarious staff
I had a cold poutine
Love this place. Triple pork needs the old sausage back. New one sucks.
Good poutine. Place was gross. Everything was sticky.
Ordered a korean Bbq (beef) and philly cheese steak (beef) poutine with a special instruction to not have any pork mean in it as a lot of their item adds bacon to it. They sent me the order without any beef. When I called to inquire, the girl on the other end was very rude, and said they didnt add meat coz i said no pork. And it was my fault for writing no pork. I don't get how they do not add beef to a beef poutine because I asked for no pork meat in it. They blamed it on me, didn't even bother to rectify the issue and instead hung up on my face beacuse they are busy. Never ordering from there again for sure.
My wife got fresh fries for her poutine only because the kid behind the counter put the wrong gravy on her poutine, while I got the old stale cold fries. When I questioned him about it he assured me the fries were "still fresh". What a disappointment, when your whole menu revolves around french fries you would think all orders are made fresh. Shouldn't expect anything less from an Oshawa business.
Everytime I've been in the lines are short, and service is fast. Lots of poutines to choose from as well.
Really love Smokes! Bacon Cheeseburger Poutine is soooo good!
A good selection of various types of poutine. A little bit of a wait to have an order prepared.
Overpriced, giant portions of poor tasting food. Everything I've had is bad. From the tomatoey BBQ pork to the chicken and waffles burrito. Bad, bad, bad!
Was sitting in the hotel deciding on what to have for supper for the night and decided to go with smokes since it was two doors down from the hotel I was staying at. Was pretty disappointed when I got back to the hotel room, paid almost $9 for a small box of blanched fried. Was hoping for crispy fries with hot gravy and melting curds, but I got mush unfortunately.
Get the Shwasome!
Right beside the Atria downtown Oshawa always great for late night bar food but who doesn't like a poutine anytime
Delicious food with a wide variety of options available. There is a good selection of toppings, and service is quick and friendly at this location. Ample space is available for dining-in, with takeout as an option - definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!
Good poutine if you're looking to smash a bunch of flavours together. I had the Buffalo chicken and my wife had the cheeseburger with bacon. Both were very good. Fast service and the restaurant was clean.
BEST POUTINE EVER! I'm all for the classic fries, cheese curds, and gravy (which is offered here) but my new found love is the Chicken Inferno. This little diner is cozy. It's also next door neighbours with Smoke's Weiners, which i hope to visit soon. The staff are patient and pleasant, nonchalant even. They put you at ease, and are willing offer their suggestions if you don't know what to try.
One of the better places to get poutine in the Durham region.
My favorite place for poutine.
The pulled pork is my favorite. They use a good amount of toppings. My only criticisms would be the fries need a bit longer to cook and a little more cheese would be nice. Still good food though, even my picky kids like it.
Not a good as it is made out to be but still decent.
My go-to place in the downtown core for great fries, and fast, friendly service.
Best poutine in Oshawa hands down!! Nice hot gravy and real cheese curd, not shredded mozzarella like some other places. I’m a fan of the Pulled Pork Poutine! I love the fact that the potatoes are cut right on site… frozen fries just aren’t the same. Keep up the great work. The place was clean, staff were friendly ????????????
I absolutely love this place! Never had a bad experience. Staff is amazing and so is the food!! I recommend this to all my customers as I'm a DD driver and you are open nice and late. Highly recommend this place its to die for!
Pretty good
Always a classic when stopping through the durty shwa
Best poutine you can get outside Quebec
A little pricing, but great toppings. Sometimes very busy! Never disappointed in the food, just that I've never finished one myself.
Why say you're open until 11pm tonight when you're closed at 9:40pm? Wasted time
Was dis-organized , poutine was average, staff was friendly
Great poutine. Ordered through Skip the Dishes, poutine arrived nice and hot. Good portion size, I had the Traditional and loved it!
Great food, great price! Highly recommend it!
A great place for fries or a variation of different takes on poutine. They took a good idea and ran with it. I love going here and trying something new every time. Great choices and all good hearty food is used. If this is your thing come in and see what everyone is raving about.
My favorite place to get poutine. I absolutely love the new smashed fries too. Veggie rainbow all the way.
Very friendly service. Would return again.
I dream of Smokes every day. The most perfect poutine.
Omg you have to try this place ! So many different flavours and toppings ! You definitely won’t be disappointed. Whatever you do save room cuz there’s a lot on the plate . You won’t be disappointed! Best fries I have EVER eaten !
Food is great.
Fantastic food, fantastic Customer services, fantastic prices!
Amazing poutine and great service !
Love the nacho grande poutine.
Incredibly unhealthy but good food
Wide selection of Poutine.
Best poutine I had all day!
Service was good, friendly, fast. Food was good, hot, lots of bacon on my chicken bacon ranch. Suggestion would be less gravey and more cheese curds. Overall a good experience.
I came in late on a Monday and received such great service from Justin with the bleached hair. He was very friendly and he was very accommodating of my Vegan diet. Best mushrooms I've ever had in my life. 10/10 recommend.
Used to be great, customer service is good but the food quality has declined over the years. I am concerned with food safety as the past few times I have went there fries have been refried, quality of toppings has been fair at most and I have found peices of what seemed to be plastic packaging in my poutine. Safe to say I do not eat here anymore.
Love the food but it doesn't make up for the lack of management skills when it comes to being harassed by drunk and high non customers that wander off the streets. The bathroom is always out of service and the place isn't very clean. Won't eat here again.
Amazing service, sometimes you have to wait cuz they're understaffed right now but still amazing
Great service...amazing poutines! I have yet to try them all but I am working on it ???????????? Highly recommended stopping by if you have yet to try them out.
Spent 50 bucks for a poutine and 2 large tater tots on UberEats. I know there are service fees and stuff so that is fine. So let's say 40 bucks for the food. The poutine was cold. Which I don't even really care about. It's Uber Eats so expectations have to be realistic. But to half pack the two large orders of tater tots which cost 9 bucks each. That was crazy. Literally worked out to 50 cents for each tater tot. Which are the basic freezer bag style tater tots. Anyways. I'm popping off because I'm hungry and this is just how I get when I'm hungry and ripped off.
Not that good for the price
best poutine chain in toronto.
Small portions and high prices make it not a goto for me.
Everyone loves poutine! But everyone won't like every kind of poutine they have. Some are really gross, others are amazing! They have veggie options. Nice seating area. Prices are comparable. Staff is mostly young boys, not really enthusiastic about their jobs but polite and courteous non the less.
Great poutine! Great selection of types.
Always great for drunk food. Vegetarian options available (the veggie gravy is da bomb!) and staff is always cool and friendly.
Best poutine
Meal type
I remember first coming here when it had just opened up. The smell inside was more than tantalizing, with something that was not only delicious, but nostalgic for me. Fond memories of Quebec poutine at the ski slopes came to mind and it was bliss. The poutine was perfect. The right gravy, the perfect curds, and fries of immpecable quality with that satisfying crisp texture. Today only one of those three things still holds true. Curds are still perfect, with an unmistakable squeek of freshness. Sadly it goes downhill from here.avy is more salt than anything now; a brown goo barely good enough for fries. And the fries... What happened? Why are they this soggy mess even after they are made "crispy" on request. And flavourless to boot. They might as well be cardboard. I will admit that this still is a much better poutine than what I can normally get in Oshawa. Closer to that salty-savoury mess that poutine is so wonderfully made to be. And the variety of flavours makes-up by leaps and bounds any shortcomings . I still would gladly order from their massive list. Like the pulled pork poutine or the spectacular perogie poutine. Unique flavours that catch my eye and keep me coming back here. I just wish the fries and gravy were better. Guess I have to search once again for that sweet Quebec poutine elsewhere again...
Great choices of different poutines, big servings, fast friendly service. Love how they now deliver and service is very fast for delivery also. Highly recommended
Excellent poutine. Large selection of flavors not just your standard gravy. Very well mannered staff and a large selection of toppings.
Yumm what else is there to say !?
It's poutine. It's nothing special. Smoke's does it well and is open late so you can get late food. While this sounds great, it's actually a con. Go on a Friday/Saturday night and you get to deal with drunk people, fighting, and a very slow line up. I've had people arguing behind me who don't even know each other, waited in line for 15+ minutes, and had to weave through the crowd of drunks who hang put at front thanks to it's "Prime" location between the bars. The food itself is nothing special. It's literally a potato they try to make special. Don't get me wrong, it's not horrible either which is why it got 3 stars but still. Update: The last few times I've been here it's been much better. Increasing to 4 stars.
First time we went there, and it has Amazing taste
Quick service.
Food is great but sometimes it's understaffed.
So many choices!! I never know what to have! I think my favourite is the Shwasome, though. True Oshawanian, right here!! <3 Definitely will return since I live downtown and the hours are perfect for a night owl like me!! #WIN
Poutine is King at this place!
Always great
Best poutine hands down,
Never went before. So many choices, want them all, also had the taters, they were mint. Friendly and efficient service
This place provides wonderful service and tasty food. My favourite spot in the city. The meals came out rapidly and the rates were fair. Highly recommended.
Food is amazing, they were under staffed though so it took a while to get the food.
Service
The bacon cheeseburger poutine is like a party in my mouth and y"all are invited! Delicious!!
Poutine was amazing almost like real french poutine
The potatoes were not fresh cooked. The smell was like mildew
Great employees, all very sociable except that one guy... Food is great, restaurant is clean, and its way cheaper to come in person than through a meal ordering app.
Had Korean BBQ and ordered Bacon wih extra Cheese... regular size was really filling. Fresh, delicious and great fast service. ???? coming back ❤
Awesome selection of amazibg poutine.
Great yummy food. Lots to choose from and the staff is awesome.
Food tasted great until I found a hair in it. Now I don't want it.
The franchiser directors must make the imperative decision to make a size that is 50% the size of the current minimum. Charge only ~20% less and people that may not return due to assumed waste or large portion inevitability will in fact come in pour l'entree de la belle provence Quebec! Only managed to check it out last week, was satisfied, and the front-end service was friendly and welcoming to talk to. Also noteworthy is their Brand Management: Stickers. Small Stickers. Big Stickers. So sticker fans, heed this note. Hipsters: no pins that I saw, but you could ask. Not sure what image the franchise is leaning toward i general terms.
The Staff were friendly but seemed to have trouble handling multiple orders. The food was your typical after last call grease fare. Tasty! I can't say anything about the atmosphere at night after the bars close because I went there during the day. They actively encourage the homeless population to use their washrooms and hang out inside. This may be off putting to some people when waiting on their meals or if you decide to eat in house. However everyone kept to themselves and It was relatively quiet. I've been to other Smoke's locations around the country and this place is in desperate need of renovations. The sign is so faded I had a hard time figuring out the place from across the street. The inside was pretty rugged and some of the chairs looked ready to collapse. Not a bad experience overall but I won't be going back.
Amazing food.. Great staff! Never been disappointed. A must try if youre ever in the area!
Expensive
Apparently pretty good poutine.
Best poutine in town lots of choices to choose from and all so tasty.
We ordered take-out and the food was amazing! Loved the veggie options they had especially the jalapeno one.
Good food
Expensive.
Great food, it's open late, good conversation, great place to meet friends.
A worker went above & beyond... I had a sub-par order previously and let them know about it (fries were a little more stale then usual); I still love smokes poutine so I ordered again and a worker/manager by the name of Andrew not only corrected my concern but went above & beyond to make this experience a very pleasant one. Thank you a ton for your kindness & stay safe during these times! :)
I cried tears of joy eating a jumbo pulled pork putine in the store once and since then everything in life has felt more fulfilling and meaningful. 10/10, will suggest this as a life changing experience and meal built in one.
Amazing food! Have all sorts of poutine variations, and the portion sizes are decent.
Great experience, helpful staff, great food!
Needs vegan cheese to earn that extra star!
Amazing
VEGETARIAN GRAVY......... For me, it's completely disgusting. I wouldn't come back here at all. But for those who may want this option, you can try it out!
Best poutine around ! Quick service and friendly staff
If you love poutines this is the perfect place
Amazing food and love that they offer vegetarian options for poutine.
Occasionally the gravy isn't warm enough to hear the cheese - otherwise Smoke's makes good poutine! Eat here way too often...
Smokes is the greatest hangover cure ???? never had a problem there. Great staff and great food. The new Reno’s look amazing. The guy who owns it must be proud :)))
I like smokes poutine and I've never been disappointed with the taste BUT they need bigger sizes... they are basically ripping you off by not offering bigger sizes because you are left to have to buy another poutine which is pricey at smoke's especially with condiments. Please make bigger size box's.
Love this place. Awesome poutines and friendly staff.
Terrible the floor was sticky,the tables were dirty. We ended up throwing our food away. It was cold.
Great poutine! I appreciate all the vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. I also like the mask the food worker was wearing. It perfectly covered his beard.
Always a great experience when I go in. Staff are always wonderful and food is amazing.
An extremely well run franchise. Always excellent food and service.
Not lacking in the fries, cheese, gravy, toppings, or quality of all four ????
Poutine was average, the place felt pretty empty due to no music and cold atmosphere. Seating area is pretty small and feels cramp, and the staff member working wasn't too helpful. However, the overall presentation and cleanliness of the restaurant was impressive. I really wish the fries on the Poutine weren't too burnt. Hopefully things improve during my next visit, but I'm glad to see a restaurant dedicated to serving Poutine!
Yummy
Smokey parked his truck on my street this summer on Hogan Crescent Bowmanville. I went to the community mailbox and noticed Smokey or helper had ripped down my neighbors poster of their lost beloved pet and replaced it with a smokes poutinerie flyer.
Yummy
Good customer service and my order was made within a couple minutes. Bought a Chicken Bacon Ranch Poutine. Poutine isn't the greatest. Curds were barely melted and really rubbery. Gravy was hot, but the fries were cold and old tasting. Too much ranch sauce. Barely any chicken. An okay amount of bacon was there, but they seem to add bacon bits too for some reason. 16.00 rounded up for a regular and it is not very big. Likely won't return because of the food.
Best poutine place! They always make it perfect!
Absolutely love this place, husband and I go the all the time. Staff is great food is amazing!
It was good the location is prime for the bar just up the street long hours open till 3 am enjoyed the food Iean it's it's poutine what's not to enjoy haha.
Best “variety poutine” anywhere... great hours, great service, so darn decadent!
(Translated) Putin. (Original) Poutine.
Wicked food good people
good prices for very good fgood
Double Pork is the one to go for????
Ryan you should be ashamed of only having one staff member here at night, two drunk and high street kids were marauding around in here. If its a walk in joint at least make it a safer one. Its 7:19 and they were in here 15 mins ago. You guys make enough money on this food, have 2 staff on at night
Delivery was prompt, food is delicious as always, and the portions are filling. I even got a handwritten note about my order. Thank you!
Great place for munchies after clubbing in Oshawa or at the end of the day
I love smokes
My favorite fast food
Love the variety, always something new to try.
Recent visit was a great pre-cursor to the Concert next door. Great employees, food, atmosphere and music. Full stomach, big smile. Sure to be back.
Salty, one word describes it all
Second time attending. My first visit was at a different location. The food was below average, which was disappointing considering it is a poutine joint. The fries and gravy both sucked and were very bland. The restaurant was literally freezing and the tables and benches felt like ice. The music was terribly loud. I ordered a pulled pork poutine... ate the pork threw the entire $10.99 poutine out. If you want mediocre food for a high price it's good. On the plus the staff who served us was a deluge, very polite and friendly.
One person working in the back. Took forever to get our food.
Amazing atmosphere, great food!!! Excellent service! A must try for everyone!
Very polite people.
Love having so many choices delicious
Quick service and safe covid protocols. Also, delicious!
Great food, great staff, friendly, and they offer a little more to customers and potential customers with online contests and free giveaways!! Amazing!!!
Who hasn't and doesn't love this place.
Very good
Good food but a little pricey.
Great place to get your poutine fix!! Lack a bit of gravy the odd time but other than that great please to eat!!!
very expensive
Sure, you pay quite a bit for a poutine, but you never leave hungry. The food is delicious. I usually don't trust any food joint in downtown Oshawa, but I would go back here again and again. The quality is top notch right across the board. I had Smokes in Niagara Falls, and this one is just as good. Definitely recommend for a casual date
Delicious food great employees decent pricing can’t wait to go back :)
Got there at 1:50, called and they said they close at 1:45, even though it says 2:00 on the website.....
Why do you need to know this? This place makes fries, gravy, and cheese curds. Then they add toppings like pulled pork and/or bacon amongst other things.
Awesome poutine as usual!!
I'm sure their fries are just perf GLG ;)
Smokes poutine... cheese, gravy, and delicious add on options. Perfection!!!
Not the best fries and gravy but the toppings make up for it because they are delicious. I reccomend the triple pork poutine. Make sure to get fries well done if you don't want them soggy and eat it when it's fresh. Service is a hit or miss. The first few times we went there was a woman working who was very helpful and sanitary (wore gloves). The last time we went there was a young man working who was friendly but he was texting on his phone while taking our order, and then went straight to making food without gloves.
This place is definitely the spot to go to for different kinds of poutine
Loved it! Can't wait for the Weinerie! Was there today again and loved the Chicken Bacon Ranch!
Ordered the pogos through uber eats for pickup. When picked up I tried them in the vehicle with my girlfriend. Both mine and hers were still cold and partially frozen. He remade the food after I went in. But the second time we didn't stay infront of the store while we ate them. Tried to eat them and they were still frozen and cold in the center even though outside was hot. At this point I didn't want to go back again for a 3time. Uber eats refunded me partially. Just wanted to give the heads up for others looking at the pogos
Perfect delicousnous
I order poutine from this location regularly. I ordered after a while almost after a year...it was disappointing this time however not sure if anything changed like management etc. Ordered butter chicken less poutine and chicken inferno poutine. Former was lacking salt and fried cauliflower bits and cheese curds were hardly noticeable. Inferno chicken was good in taste however chicken pieces were not more then 2-3. I hope this to be a one off bad experience.
The food was fresh, hot and delicious! My only concern is that the portions were too large, I even ordered a small and it was enough for myself and my friend! Amazing price, good value for money.
Possibly the worst poutine I've ever had the pleasure of overpaying for. Got the bacon, chicken ranch and it felt like I was eating dry fries. Do not recommend.
Ordered the traditional poutine. Excellent gravy, excellent fries and, unfortunately for me, excellent top quality cheese curds. Unfortunately because I'm one of those who dislikes the "squeaky", rubbery quality of the best and freshest cheese curds. I prefer the cheap imitation stuff that melts and gets stringy. I know, blasphemy, so be warned if you are not used to the real good stuff, because that's what you'll get at Smoke's.
(Translated) Best place poutine (Original) Best poutine place
Yum yum yummy! Love their poutine!
Great food and good music
Great selection of different types of poutine. Very small sit down area to eat your meal. Looks like it's mostly takeout.
Love this place! So many great poutine options and awesome staff!
Great faces, great attitudes. Must stop when ever in Oshawa. Always know where the greatest poutine stops are while out on the road and this one makes the short list !!!
Myself, my brother and my mom went in yesterday around 1-2pm, my brother ordered a classic poutine and my mom and I ordered the pulled pork. Now today me and my mom are stuck with food poisoning... I’ve never had a problem here before, but I’m definitely not coming back????
Go here often, never been disappointed, always fresh
Always friendly customer service and willing to give suggestions to trying new items on the menu. Never had a bad experience with smokes and I love that their Oshawa location is right by my house so I can have smokes whenever I want. Keep up the great job guys and you'll never disappoint me:)
Hello there, myself and my family were at this location on Wednesday Feb 28th/19 before going to a concert at the Tribute Center in Oshawa. There was one staff member working. The line up was to the doors at times. He was running from front counter to taking orders to the back making the food. I can not stress how professional this poor stressed, understaffed worker was. Even when a verbal fight was breaking out he handled himself so well. He calmly asked them to stop yelling, break it up. He apologized for the wait several times. This staff member deserves serious recognition.and deffinatly some well dereverd time off. I will be calling the location to ensure the manager hears about this in person. Keep up the great food & service.
Oh my! The double pork poutine was so amazing I forgot to take a picture until half way through!!
Always have a wonderful experience. Never been disappointed. Their traditional and pulled pork poutine is definetly a must try! I can assure you, if you’re hungry, and wanting something delicious and filling, smokes poutiniere is the way to go! You will not be disappointed
Always a great place to go after some drinks in downtown Oshawa. Love that it is open late and the classic poutine never disappoints! If you are looking for a good poutine place this is the one!!
Love this place great food and great staff. Only 1 issue. The thanksgiving poutine need to be available all year lol. Was there again Saturday night had my favourite triple pork with bbq sauce. The owner was working which is always nice to see and he made my fries perfectly (I like them crispy)
Everything you can think of on a poutine is here.
Love the poutine here. Always good!
Good food, dont bother with delivery as i dont live far but the food was cold and it was crammed inside the box so when it arrived i went to pull a fry out and the whole thing lifted out of the box as a solid brick of poutine. If i order again, will definitely be dining in
Excellent poutine and great selection to pick from!!!
I...just wanted a sprite. The high ass worthless tween wouldn't pull it out OF TH THE FRIDGE 2 CM BEHIND HIM. Hear awesome lies about this place often.
Justin's with bleach hair makes the best poutine in the world and has great Halloween spirt
Great food, good service
Take out
I had the perogy poutine and it was to die for. The guy even swapped out the bacon for sauteed onions for me. The only issue was that there was only one person working at a regular meal time (it was about 6pm). He did his best but the wait time was very long.
Great food and price staff friendly.
Very good poutine. Love the feel of the place as well.
Never had a complaint. Fast friendly service. Great variety of poutine. Late hours is great when your graving good food.
Fantastic food with quality ingredients and a friendly staff. Fresh french fries real cheese curds and the gravy is delicious . I would recommend anyone that Will be in the oshawa area to check this place out and grab a bite ! GOLEAFSGO
Don’t know what I did before this smokes! Have never left here disappointed!!
I wouldn't even give this place one star it Worst service ordered a regular poutine and they served me cold uncooked fries with Turkey gravy for their thanksgiving poutine and when I asked for my money back or for the food to be made properly they refused only offering a cup of vegetable gravy. On top of the horrible service from both men working (cook and cashier), their entire store is filthy the tables are broken food all over the floors and walls it literally looks like they moped the floor with water from an outhouse.
Andrew is the BEST, so nice and patient and the food is amazing, came in Thursday night and Andrew was the only one working and he did a phenomenal job!!! We are so happy with our service and our food is delicious!A++++
Nah
Great place to go for some great and different foods. Always large portions at a decent price!
O.M.G. this place has such delicious poutine it is indescribable . Not enough words
The food was nasty the only thing worse was the bathroom with blood and needles for drugs
I'm confused and shocked at the rave reviews of this place? The cheese " curds" were not even melted. The fries were tasteless and soggy. The gravy was bland. And my food was luke warm at best. The prices are steep for tasteless cold soggy fries. Won't be back. They could also tidy it up a bit as well
Awesome food! Lovely staff, best place to go if you want quality food and at a good price!
Honestly never been so insulted by someone from the food industry just a complete lack of respect for a paying costumer I'd contact the owner if I there email
Good people behind the counter making even better food.
Friendly staff and very good food!
Best poutines I've ever had! Staff is very nice and patient and very helpful- sometimes I go in and ask them to surprise me and I've never had a poutine there I didn't love! And they LOAD your poutines up- plenty of meat- cheese and gravy yum lol! Update I’ve been back at least once a month- ordered a poutine online today and it was perfection/ SO MUCH BACON! And cheese! Best poutine place ever!
This place has awesome poutine.♥️
Very good poutine and a generous amount of toppings.
Ok
I have ordered from this location multiple times during quarantine(dont judge me, we love poutine). The service has been amazing. The employees are awesome. The last time I was there, I used the debit machine and the employee offered me hand sanitizer right away. Just thought it was such a nice and thoughtful gesture, especially during a pandemic. Go here, support local and support canadian businesses ????????
Changed my rating to 2 stars as the kid that was working there at 9 pm on may 25 was rude, unproffesional and seems like he hates his job. I frequent this location weekly and honestly this experience makes me to take my business elsewhere. I know you can do better
First time there Korean putin very good
Very good staff and management, always friendly and always willing to help in anyway. Food has always been hot and fresh. Worth the visit and good prices.
Overrated & overpriced
This place is amazing and any one who has a problem waiting a few minutes for a great poutine then go and get a crappy one at Montreal place up the street.....#smokes for life....
5 star for Ian, 1 star for Dalton
I always enjoy going into Smoke's after a Gens game or before. They are always friendly, and the food is yummy.
Tristan and Justin were amazing they treated us so kindly and helped us first timers make a fully informed decision on the poutine of our dreams.
Great poutine! Trying the slaughterhouse poutine tonight!
I was having a huge craving for poutine. My usual go to is Harvey's but this time I was close to Smoke's in Oshawa. I figured, why not go to the place that only does poutine. Boy was I wrong. I opted for the snack size traditional which came up to over $7 and for that I received soggy fries, very little cheese, and a small portion. Yes, I know it's snack size but for over $7 I expected more. I see from their menu that most of their regular poutine's are around $10+. At the end of the day it's still fries. cheese and gravy so why so expensive. It would have been more filling to go to Harvey's where I would get crispy fries, a decent portion, and it would be cheaper. Lesson learned.
The customer service was terrible. I showed up and waited almost 5 minutes for the attendant to come and take my order. There were a total of 3 people working and considering I was the only person in the restaurant, I don't see what the wait was. When he finally came around to take my order, he didn't greet me or even smile. He actually didn't say anything to be honest. Throughout the entire process, he kept staring at me and shaking the tip jar. He did this about 3 times before he gave up. I ended up ordering the bacon poutine, which took another 3 minutes for him to start making. They have an open kitchen so you can see everything they're doing, and for 3 minutes it looked like he was just zoning out. When I received my order, I was really disappointed. There were a total of FOUR cheese curds and a heaping pile of the greasiest bacon. The fries were undercooked and soggy. To top things off, the gravy was watered down, kind of like swiss chalet sauce, but worse. The "gravy" also has a ton of herbs in it so it definitely didn't have that traditional gravy taste that we all know and love when we think of a poutine. Overall I hated my experience. I definitely didn't feel like I was a valued customer and the food was nothing close as to what I would expect a poutine to be. I felt really bad walking out and seeing another guy waiting for service. I knew he was more than likely going to go through the exact same experience I just had. And for that reason, I'm never going back.
Amazing Canadian dish served the right way. Love the triple pork!
Speachless.
Smokes Pourtinerie was absolutely slammed on the early morning of October 27, 2019. The staff was more than calm and handled the customers very well with incoming issues. Uber eats was down on top of other delivery services. Customers were becoming belligerent as it was very early. Yet the staff remained calm and helped customers as best they could. I would recommend that the location gets more staff as per the high volume at night. Respectfully, A concerned customer of the staff members
Best restaurant ever 10/10 ign
Great place to get a great poutine! Hopefully helps with getting some maple leaf tickets!
As always best poutine ever you gonna eat in Canada. This is the headquarters and open late night good options for meat and veggie it has avocado as an option well for health curious :)
It was the best poutine place ever
5 stars!! YUM!! ;)
Friendly staff. Awesome food. 5 stars
They are so delicious!
Absolutely dreadful, my girlfriend and I came here today and ordered the vegetarian poutine, both her and I are vegetarian and have been for several months, my girlfriend is elergic to meat so she simply can't eat it. We got our poutine and started eating it when we realized this isn't the regular vegetarian poutine, I went up and asked if there sure it's vegetarian when the server realized it wasn't, my girlfriend got very sick and it ruined our night! We where no longer able to attend the generals game like planned on and spent good money on. When I was talking to the server after I told him she's elergic to meat all he said was "sorry man". This is a huge mistake and we will never eat here again. I'm very disappointed such a big mix up could happen. There should never be such a big mix up that causes an electric reaction in a food place! Would not recommend coming here if you have allergies. they simply do not care enough about them!
Come here on a regular basis and Smokes makes the best poutine in Oshawa. Great staff who are always friendly.
Went back again and had the Chicken Bacon Ranch and it was really good. Will be going back before most Oshawa Generals games.
Yummmm Some of the best creations from Smokes!!!! A tasty meal in a box ????
After spending 22 dollars and walking out without any food is never a good experience. We wanted french fries with guac so we stopped in the Oshawa store. What we received was 2 orders of fries drowned in gravy with next to no guac. We asked why it doesn't state anywhere on the menu the all orders come with cheese and gravy. The very young employee didn't know how to respond and says "that's the way i comes. " We say we don't want fries in a gravy soup as we just wanted guac. Very inexperienced with customer service. We payed to leave with only a sour taste in our mouths and no food. We will never return to that location.
This place is the bomb digging
Rear staff, really friendly. Justin and Andrew are excellent at what they do... give them a raise!!
It has menney poutine Verity's
Love this place, but don't order from skip the dishes unless you're prepared to pay double in some cases. Best bet is to just visit the restaurant yourself...
Best Smokes Poutine Location!!!
I asked about my nut allergy and this guy went on about employees not washing their hands????
Lunch
Good hangover food
Shite a$$ service, and expensive af. Not worth it at all.
We were here just not too long ago and spoke to team has such great flavours that the add to their poutine I get the cheeseburger one with bacon and hamburger on it and of course cheese. It is so tasty and so filling stop here are terrific they help you with your order they also make everything just right. If you want to try something that's out of the box from the regular poutine places try smoking poutine you won't be disappointed
Awesome selection of poutine and absolutely the best around! Would highly recommend smokes poutinerie oshawa to all poutine lovers!
Great poutine with a large number of varieties and toppings!
First of all I would like to say I also work at fast food place , so I entered the store and the girl was so rude did even said hi , I wanted about 2 minutes see came and she was so rude ! I love poutine but never ever gonna come to this place ! I girl was super rude they should fire her or teach some customer service
We ordered 2 medium/regular sized poutines from the King Street location -- 1 was a traditional and the other was a pulled pork. We got them to go, and we spent at least 10 minutes driving before we stopped to eat. **The cheese curds were still whole chunks and cold** That is a travesty for a poutine place. Also: the guy who put together the food didn't eat poutine. That's like being a cop who doesn't practice at the shooting range. How can you know if the food you're serving is any good if you can't taste-test it yourself? This was my first experience with Smoke's and I will not be going back. I'll save my money for another local shop which has never had an issue with making things hot enough to melt cheese curds.
Well we did love this place until they removed the only gluten free item from their menu. ????
Always fast with service. Best place to go after drinking; they treat you nice and theyre not judgmental.
Smoke's is always a great Poutine experience when me and my Girlfriend go to eat their with amazing food and staff. #Love
Love the downtown Oshawa location, staff are super friendly! Can't go wrong with the Philly cheese steak poutine, it's the best.
Great for hangovers. Love its location right downtown. The staff is always friendly and welcoming
Very nice
Good food for the price. Very large portions.
Pickup is not available due to people not picking up their food , I totally understand, but I tried to order food literally outside of the store , ask for a deposit for pickup, not every one should suffer from a few crackheads not picking up their fries, will not be back , decent service though. Ordering through skip and Uber eats costs much more , thus why I drove to the store
I like the vegetarian gravy over regular gravy On my traditional poutine
