La Belle Patate

“This is poutine done right. Squeaky curds, proper gravy, crispy homemade fries. Pair it with a spruce beer and you've got the most Quebecois meal on Vancouver Island.”

“No craft beer selection beyond the spruce beer. A poutine this goood deserves a proper tap list.”

“teh gravy has real depth, likely made from proper stock rather than a powder mix. The cheese curds have that fresh, squeaky texture that tells you they're sourced well. The fry technique produces a good crisp smh”

“Closed on Sundays, and the lunch rush with navy personnel from the nearby base can make for a chaotic wait nuff said”

“As far as Canadian comfort food goes, this is the real deal. The cheese curds were perfectly squeaky the gravy reached the bottom, adn the homemade fries were thick and hearty meh”

“Heavy, one-note menu. Everything is some version of poutine, which limits VARIETY for repeat visits.”
