MIXED CARService A1Good placeBut when you learn that Brisket is cooked then frozen and recooked before being served to you... that explains a lot of things!The chicken was not cooked well and the mac-Ncheese was very ordinary!However, the fries, wings and jalapeno poppet are EXCELLENT!

If you live in NDG this is the BBQ place you should be going to, food is amazing, everything from the brisket to the wings are huge portions, incredibly filling and just damn good real BBQ. The fried pickles are also addictive, easily eat 1000 of them.You're doing yourself a disservice by not coming here.

I've been coming here often enough, I think it's time for a review.It's by far my favourite BBQ place in Montreal. It's a great South Carolina-style BBQ restaurant with huge servings for a good price. I always get the brisket, either in a sub, by itself or their burns ends. It never disappoints, the flavours are so good. We did try the Champion plate the first time we went and every cut of meat offered was delicious. Also a big fan of their mac and cheese, the noodles are never soggy, they still have a bite to them and the sauce is extra cheesy. Even though I am usually stuffed by the end of the meal, I have to have the skillet cookie. It's to die for.Definitely not a place that you will leave still hungry!

Underwhelming food. Fries were old, ribs were though and the brownie was so sad. Poutine was gross. And thanks for hiding a fried pepper in my son’s fries that came with the kids meal. Careless! So disappointed with the food quality.

I have heard lots of good things about the food at Moonshine so I finally ordered for delivery thru my son.We ordered the brisket sandwiches. The fries were good and the Mac n Cheese was tasty but it was the brisket I was very disappointed in.The sandwich was smaller than I expected, the ciabatta bun was very dry and the brisket was dry as well, I expected it to have a bit more sauce to it but it looked like it was a bit over cooked.Shane

I just wanted to share an experience we had this evening. Melissa was an amazing waitress, she was kind and helpful in choosing our meals. She was just a fantastic human throughout our evening. On top of an excellent service, my fiancé forgot her purse at the restaurant and Melissa reached out to us within a couple of minutes of leaving the restaurant to inform us that she forgot her belongings. It warms my heart to find such amazing humans in ndg.Thanks again for the impeccable service and for your kindness.

Definitely one of my favourite restaurants in Monkland Road. The food and service is absolutely amazing.
As far as BBQ places go, there are better options in Montreal/Laval. While the service was excellent and the look/branding of the place is on point, the food could be better.The mac and cheese was the best thing we had; it had a nice smokey flavor. However it could have used some sort of topping for textural contrast. The brisket.and chicken that we had were bland. The chicken may have been slightly overcooked. The french fries were also bland. The corn bread tasted more like a cupcake; quite sweet and not corn-y enough for us. The sauce was interesting in a good way; pepper-y without being spicy. I suppose if you like the sauce you can use it to flavour the other items but that wasn't enough for us.Parking: You might get lucky and find parking on the same street if you are lucky. Otherwise, you will likely need to park on the side streets which, again, may be difficult to find parking.Kid-friendliness: Kid's menu available.

Went for dinner with my wife after we finished work. At around 4:30 the restaurant's dinner service is still fairly quiet, so we enjoyed a nice meal of brisket and ribs. For the price, portion size was generous and satisfying. Service was very friendly and her drink recommendations were great. Will come back.

Walked in with reservations last winter on a Saturday night. Place was empty. 3 girls behind the counter all looking at their phones and had no intention in greeting us. We had to go to them. One finally decide she would show us to a table. After seating us she was no where to be found for about 20 mins. Finally came back and ask if we'd like to order. I asked if we could order a drink first. She tool our order then came back 15 mins later with our drinks. Another 15 mins goes by she took our food order. We then waited about a half hour for the cold food to be put on our table. Oh ya the place was practically empty. The baked beans were hard as rocks. I guess the chef doesn't taste his good before serving it. The waitress never came back to check to see if we wanted other drinks or even to ask if everything was OK. Didn't I mention the place had maybe 6 other patrons? This one of the worst experiences I've had in a restaurant. Will never return. Hope by now they properly trained the wait staff. Pathetic.
