H2J 1X2, Canada
(514) 523-8780
(514) 523-8780

Beautys, a Montreal institution and the home of the famous Special and Mish-Mash, has been on the same former garment district corner since 1942. And the ageless Hymie Sckolnick oversees it all.

Original Main owner Peter Varvaro died this past August but his legacy endures, most notably in the form of authentic smoked meat (better than Schwartz's some claim) and the best rib steak and liver deal in Montreal. And all available as of 10:00 a.m. every day.

8. Mon Nan

43 rue de la Gauchetière, Montreal, Quebec

H3H 2M2, Canada
(514) 933-5041

11. Pho Lien

Copy Link
5703-B chemin de la Côte-des-Neiges, Montreal, Quebec
H3S 1Y7, Canada
Pho Lien, another Antonio Park fave, is a chronic magnet for connoisseurs of Vietnam's restorative national dish.

Kevin Tolton, cook at Garde Manger: "For me it's easy. As a resident of Saint-Henri it's Satay Brothers every time. Nothing cures a hangover like a 2:00 p.m. breakfast of Laksa soup (triple X of course), a couple steam buns and a pint! After that I'm ready to get back to work in top shape!"
