What to Order
Smoked Meat Sandwich
This iconic Montreal sandwich features tender, juicy smoked meat, often served on rye bread with a pickle and coleslaw. You can choose your preferred fat level for the meat.
"Loved the smoke meat sandwich! Get one, even if you usually don't like them."
Darren Vass
Reuben
A classic deli sandwich, the Reuben at Dunn's is loaded with smoked meats on rye bread with traditional fixings. It's a hearty and satisfying choice.
"The Reuben was the best I have ever had…"
Robert Dykes
Poutine
Dunn's offers a classic poutine with hot fries, melted cheese curds, and savory gravy, as well as an Italian version. It's a popular side dish that many find delicious.
"The poutine was smoking hot and the curds melted into delicious gravy."
Jason Dorey
Strawberry Cheesecake
This in-house made dessert is described as rich and satisfying for those with a sweet tooth. It features a creamy, fluffy texture with a nice strawberry fruitiness.
"Couldn’t not try their famous strawberry cheesecake made on site, a nice tangy cheesecake with great creamy and fluffy texture, strawberry adds a nice fruitiness to it, however it was lacking much of a base… if it had more of one I would’ve rated it outstanding!"
Jonathan Chappell
Coleslaw
Often served alongside the smoked meat sandwiches, the coleslaw is noted for its tangy flavor that complements the richness of the meat.
"The coleslaw in particular was delicious."
