Blackstrap BBQ - Verdun

I have been wanting to take the 15 min quick trip to Verdun to try Blackstrap.Finally we went with my son from New York and were a little disappointed.I had been hyping up the ribs and the chicken but they both gave their meals a...6/10.Not meaty,one of the sauces was off and much better BBQ in Brooklyn.I had the tacos which looked and tasted good but were missing a zesty lime crema and real limes to make them delicious .The green bean side did not have one ounce of seasoning and the coleslaw was average. Nice ambiance and very family friendly,good service but the food did not deliver.Maybe a case of the post holiday blues in the kitchen?

We had visited Blackstrap BBQ on a visit last year, so when deciding where to eat in Montreal during this visit, this was on the top of our list. Since we had last been there, they have expanded into the next bay of the building...with a number of sit-down tables, whereas previously they only had two picnic-style tables indoors and a couple outside near the entrance on Wellington St. Previously, they had some combo meals where you would get 2 or 3 meats and sides all included but they recently changed their menu, now you order each meat and side individually. There were four of us, however we knew their servings were fairly large so we ordered 3 meats (brisket, smoked turkey, and pork ribs) and 3 sided (bean salad, coleslaw and BBQ mushrooms). Everything was delicious, particularly the mushrooms and the turkey. The brisket was very tender (we ordered fatty, you can also ask for lean). There was plenty of food for all of us, but we did manage to eat it all so nothing to take home. We fed 4 adults with great food (including 3 soft drinks) for about $75 (before tip). We would definitely go our of our way to visit Blackstrap BBQ on a future visit.

If they want to spend their money on tasteless food and give out zero customer service and do as a fool, eat all wise here. our whole party was mad. does the personal and mgmt laugh about the customers?

I visited this restaurant on a Saturday afternoon for an early dinner around 4pm and found that it was empty. The restaurant is quite small, with only 3 tables and a bar.

I visited this restaurant specifically for the poutine with burnt ends, and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Starting off with a $5 draft beer, which was refreshing on a hot day, I had no idea what was in store for me.
