The Mexican poutine was shockingly, crazy good! No, really! It was good! I’m from Texas, so Mexican food is a staple for me, and I spend enough time in Eastern Canada to have an appreciation for what poutine ought to be. I have to admit that I was very suspicious when I saw Mexican poutine on the menu of a pizza place in the airport in Montreal - it had a lot of reasons not to be good. My number one rule is “don’t eat Mexican food north of Dallas or East of the Mississippi River because it won’t be good” and that rule has held really well for over 30 years. Second, it’s Mexican food in a pizza place. Third, it’s in an airport - airport food is always mediocre at best. Fourth, it’s in Montreal, a place which prides itself on being French. Honestly, I tried it because I wanted to see just how bad it was going to be. I was totally shocked! It was delicious! I wanted more! The chorizo was spot on! The mushrooms - ehh, not sure those needed to be there. If you like Mexican food - try it! You won’t be sorry. As for the atmosphere - it’s an airport, the restaurant is limited in what they’re working with. The staff was friendly & helpful.

How is this legal in this day and age? Please do yourself a favor and grab a sandwich from Tim Hortons instead.
In my entire life, I've never had a pizza sooo bad. I guess all it takes to open a pizza shop these days is just confidence because as far as skills are considered, my 5 y/o could probably bake something better. Actually, much better.
Places that have a whole bunch of 1 star reviews (original) and 5 star reviews (fake) only are always...
Read moreVisited once travelling through. I ordered a Thai pizza because it looked interesting. It was certainly odd but probably would not reorder. Problem was there went many pizza choices available, as they were out of stock. All are premade (on site? Delivered frozen?) So you select a pie and the employee throws it into an oven for a few min. The ingredients don't necessarily taste fresh. Honestly I've had cheap frozen grocery store pizza fresher. At $15 CAD for about a 7-8 inch pie at an airport, it's okay. The prices in general for all airport food is a bit high but I would still argue this isn't a great value. I was able to eat a whole...
