Was really really disappointed tonight with the Montréal Smoked Meat sandwich. It was made up of thicker chunks of meat… certainly not the shaved that my husband got on his Corned Beef. My sandwich was relatively small with it’s chunks and his was nicely thick as it should have been. By the way I have been there before and had a shaved Montréal Smoked meat. We went at 7:30 pm and they were closing at 8:00 pm. So we decided to get them to go. I am SURE I got leftovers to make up my sandwich. This put me right off Jody’s and I doubt I will ever return. If you don’t have the proper product to make a proper sandwich then customer should be notified. Chunks taste totally different than shaved.

Okay for a quick bite. Remember that the sandwiches do not look like those in the advertisement pictures.

Went to jodys w a couple of co workers today. Sandwiches were good but overpriced. We realized later the attendant give us a small sandwich, never packed our drinks… he even forgot our forks for the coleslaw. What an idiot. Never going back.

I had the corned beef with slaw & chips, the wife had a roast beef with slaw & chips. Mine was alright, nothing special; hers was mediocre. I think the place is situated in an area(on purpose) … that most people aren’t often likely exposed to this type of food; so perhaps they may think it’s better than it really is… because they don’t know any better. I’ve been to many deli’s that blow this joint away; the service at the counter is. awkward; the place has zero personality. I won’t be running to get back anytime soon.

This place feels like the only people who go here work nearby and don’t have other options. It was okay but not really worth the price. I had the pastrami sandwich — it was okay. The coleslaw was good. Boyfriend decided to go healthy and got a sliced turkey sandwich and it was bland and dry. Disappointing. I thought with so many other food places in the area that this might be a little gem, but sadly I was mistaken.

Kids menu for 3.99 is good. The Montréal smoked meat was okay but a little smaller then I expected for a «large». Philly sandwich is really good with lots of meat. Worst thing about the place is lack of decent parking. 3 – 4 people were double parked and many spots are marked for the other stores. Staff were friendly.

I’ve been here twice with my boyfriend in the summer of 2014. I was very happy when it popped up as there were no other nearby places to get smoked meat. It wasn’t busy when we went, but that might be because it was around 4:30pm. The portion sizes were good and the fries were SOAMAZING! Honestly I think the fries were the most surprising part of the meal. You get free coleslaw with your sandwhich if you want it. We both got the Montréal smoked meat both times we went. There is a bit of seating(5 – 6 tables) inside but we always got it to go. It might be hard to find parking if you go during peak hours(lunch?) as the plaza is pretty small. There is a small side lot though.

Passed by Jody’s Deli a few times, and today my BF and I decided to give it a try. Casual but clean, Jody’s would be great for a quick lunch or dinner, and offer take-out as well as table service. He had the Big Smoke and I tried the California, both grilled Reuben sandwiches that came with fresh cut fries, dill pickle wedges and cole slaw. Sandwiches were generously stacked with mega and garnishes, and my BF who usually does not like deli was very happy. The only negative was that he had hoped for a bit more kick(it’s described in spicy terms). My California was delish, but would prefer a real mayo option to the dressing(Miracle Whip) it was served with. The fries were unbelievably good, perfectly seasoned, nicely cooked, and addictively crispy. BF left thinking that they were a close contender for Best Fries Ever! Fast, friendly service and great food — we will be back!

terrible, bland paper thin meat slicer sliced mtl smoked meat that largely resembles generic grocery deli counter varieties ungenerously piled between rye, $ 24 for one combo + extra sandwich, ridiculous, never heard of this chain and now I know why, don’t bother

Good Deli, have been here a couple times recently. A little bit over prices in my opinion for what you get but then again I am NOT a deli expert. Taste is ok prices are ok I guess but the only thing I don’t like are the hours. I wanted to try but they close pretty early considering its a place you go to get. Overall I might be back only if I’m in mood for deli meat.

Just tried this place this past week, out of the blue. Wow, what a delicious smoked meat sandwich. I had the original reuben sandwich on rye, and absolutely no complaints. It was delicious and I only wish I would have gotten a side as it’s not overly huge. I like what they have going on here and I’ll be visiting on the regular.

I eat here often. It is on Warden, South of Eglinton. My favourite is the«Steamies», definitely Montréal style, covered with coleslaw. Two choices of coleslaw, creamy or vinaigrette, I like them both. The Steamies are hot and the buns are steamed soft white bread. Price is moderate. They also serve huge Montréal Smoked Beef, Corn beef, sandwiches, and really hot french fries, etc., Gaetan is the order taker, very friendly and always accommodating. Enjoy!

First time there this evening. Been wanting to try it for ages. I had the smoked meat sandwich on a baguette. It was delicious. Looking back I wish I went for rye, but there is always next time. The portion was decent, and it was quite tasty. I’ve only had the smoked meat sandwich from picklebarrel to compare, and found this one to be a tad dryer and smaller then picklebarrel’s. However, having something this good so close to home is a bonus. Didn’t try their fries yet. I can’t compare to other places, but did find it slightly pricey, but maybe most places like this are comparable? Either way, loved the sandwich and will be coming back. Everything on the menu looked delicious.

Jody’s deli — excellent deli sandwiches, nice hand cut fries and really good pickles. That pretty well sums it all up. I have been wanting to try Jody’s for awhile but not often home around lunch time. My daughter and I went today and it was very good. The sandwiches are nice, moist and delicious. I had the cheddar smokehouse beef which was excellent. The service was exceptional friendly and warm. It is little things like that that make you want to go back and I will definitely be going back.

Outside of Montréal this is the best smoked meat I have had. The restaurant is modest and the service nice.
