Le BBQ Shop - Gatineau, Quebec

My recent visit to this BBQ Shop left much to be desired. Despite the promising aroma of smoked meats wafting through the air, the reality fell short of expectations. Firstly, the prices were exorbitant for what turned out to be average brisket. While I understand that quality comes at a cost, ... the lackluster flavor and texture of the meat failed to justify the steep price tag. It was a disappointing reminder that sometimes, paying more does not necessarily equate to better quality. To make matters worse, the ambiance was far from inviting. The crooked tables and uneven seating made it difficult to enjoy our meal comfortably. It's puzzling how such a basic aspect of restaurant maintenance could be overlooked, especially in a place that prides itself on offering a premium dining experience. Despite these shortcomings, the service was adequate, with staff members doing their best to accommodate patrons. However, it's clear that improvements are needed in various areas to elevate the overall dining experience. In conclusion, I cannot recommend this place to fellow barbecue enthusiasts. With its overly priced menu and subpar ambiance, there are plenty of other establishments in town that offer better value for money and a more enjoyable dining atmosphere. Read more

Amazing food, beautiful presentation and lovely space. Well decorated and it feels like high quality. Much more expensive than expected when we decided where to eat, but if you can afford it I highly recommend

The BBQ Shop is great little place. Nice decor, pleasant ambiance and lovely rooftop terrasse during the warmer months. Loads of tasty options on the menu and portions are generous. The pulled pork and brisket are delicious and fries are crispy. One of my favorites are the brisket ends! They ... are crispy and tasty and great way to start the meal. Takeout is also a possibility and great spot to order from when hosting a large group of friends. Read more

This restaurant has left a bitter taste in my mouth. The price-taste relationship is not at all advantageous for customers. The taste was absolutely nothing spectacular. The price is extremely expensive for a piece of food. In addition to this, they charged us for a soda that was never brought to ... us and the portion of fries ($6) that were included as an accompaniment to the ribs. High expectation big disappointment. BBQ Shop definitely entered my restaurant blacklist. Read more
