What Sue A likes about Lester’s:
We went here while visiting our daughter and son in-law in Montreal to have the true Montreal smoked meat sandwich and poutine experience and we were not disappointed. It's a very friendly place with great service and the food was fantastic. You can eat in our take out and if you are in the area I'd highly recommend stopping in. View all feedback. What namabeer doesn't like about Lester’s:
Smoke meat 8oz was $12 and 11 oz $17 Tasted good and lean compared Scwartzs. Greenspot deli gave more meat to comparé. At the end, almost all same. $15 to 20 for sandwich is a bit pricey similar to eating lobster rolls in maritimes.... so just falls like a touristy hype up thing View all feedback.
