On a cold winter night, after a full weekend of Coupe de Montréal tournament volleyball, my daughter and I were gearing up for the long drive back to Toronto. Before tackling a 5+ hour stretch on the 401, I knew we needed a proper Montréal meal to send us off the right way—especially fresh off a GOLD medal win, we were in full celebration mode.
Diablos BBQ popped up on the map, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. The menu is straightforward, and the food quality is absolutely top-tier. As someone who’s been cooking over charcoal for years and has hosted plenty of BBQ gatherings, I can confidently say this is the real deal—authentic BBQ lives here.
From flavor to presentation, everything was on point. The beef ribs and fried chicken were next level, and the brisket left me wishing I’d ordered more. Portions were generous, prices were more than reasonable, and the service was fantastic. The owner was especially welcoming—you can immediately feel the passion and pride he has in his craft and his restaurant.
We left full, happy, and ready for the drive home. That meal made the night—and the long ride back to Toronto—even better.

The food was overall okay, with some ups and downs. The Caesar salad came out a bit too heavy on the parmesan, which made it a little overwhelming. At first, the chicken was missing, but we figured it out ourselves and the staff quickly fixed it once we mentioned it.
The ribs were absolutely fantastic – tender, smoky, and full of flavor – definitely the highlight of the meal. The brisket, on the other hand, was just okay, a bit on the dry side and not as memorable.
What really made the experience better was the service. The servers were amazing – friendly, attentive, and quick to respond once things were pointed out. That really lifted the whole dining experience.

A place with nice vibes and clear dedication and experience in serving their menu. While the ribs and brisket were solid, they didn’t quite hit that peak “melt-in-your-mouth” level of juiciness. Still, the quality is high enough that it’s worth a visit to experience for yourself.

At first after reading a few of the reviews , I was quite excited to try this restaurant!! However, I must say that I left Diablos very disappointed and had urgent need to brush my teeth. The pork ribs were very, dry and not tasty. The bbq chicken seemed to be slightly undercooked and kacked flavor.
But what was the worst offense was that there were many chicken feathers still attached to the chicken wings!! We asked the server about this , and he just said that “that’s the way it comes from the supplier and they just smoke it without removing the feathers. “
Disgusting The portion sizes are small.Prices are slightly high. The server never 6 asked us if we enjoyed the meal, and I’m pretty sure he could see from what was left in the plates that we were not happy.However, he did not address this. You can clearly see from the pictures that the chicken feathers are on the extremely dry wings and that we did not enjoy the meal. The French Fries tasted ok but was a very small portion. Lunch for two cost around $78.0
After looking over some past reviews, I’m wondering if they were submitted paid actors.?? As a “foodie” I would not recommend this restaurant.

Always my favorite real bbq place in Montreal. Easy to find parking and a full bar of options. I would highly recommend the bees ribs. One of my favorite.

If you’re not going there for the Dixie Normous, you might as well go to any other steakhouse / pub. Absolutely loved sharing a large platter with the guys. Food was incredible and overall a nice atmosphere.

The ribs are so delicious it’s heavenly!!! The brisket also hits right there in the spot! The fries are nice and crunchy and well seasoned with some kind of spicy. The chicken was ok, a bit dey but its fine.
Overall, if you love bbq, you must try their ribs and brisket.

Went here for dinner, ordered a bottle of wine and some ribs, and while drinking, we noticed a rat crawl from under the seating across from us. I was trying to not let it bug me but then I saw ANOTHER rat crawl out behind it!
Immediately got up and informed the staff, showing them the video. To my surprise, no one asked me where exactly the rats were spotted, no manager came (i didn’t ask for one) and the 3 staff members just looked at me and one said “sorry, that’s just how Montrèal is” and she can “assure me there’s no rats in the kitchen.” Clearly she must have an arrangement in place with Ratatouille and his little pals to know that for sure.
I told her to charge me for the glass of wine so i could go and she asked if i wanted to pay for the bottle and take it with me. lol. It was at that moment I wished I were a Karen so I could point out just how out of touch their response and behaviour was, all 3 of them. I left and went around the corner to have some wings and fries at another place. Reported them to Quebec’s food and safety.

Honestly, it was a very disappointing experience. The service was terrible. When we arrived, we indicated that we had a reservation, and they seated us in the back of the restaurant where the tables are crammed together and there’s no room to move. They put us there even though the restaurant was empty. Additionally, I felt a kind of rejection from one of the waitresses who repeatedly ignored my requests, such as when I asked if she could take our order, provide us with a to-go box, and bring us the bill. Another waitress had to attend to us since the first one insisted on ignoring us. Regarding the food, first, they gave us a side dish we hadn’t ordered (they gave us fried broccoli, and we had ordered baked beans); second, the coleslaw was spoiled (it had an unpleasant taste and smell); third, almost everything in the dish we ordered was either too spicy or bland (we ordered Le Dixie), and the cornbread was rock hard.

Lazy night feast mode fully activated: slow-smoked brisket melting at the touch of a fork, tender quarter chicken with that perfect backyard char, Cajun fries spiced just enough to keep things interesting, and a scoop of creamy potato salad to cool it all down. All washed down with a cold Yakima IPA from Microbrasserie Le Castor, crisp, hoppy, and exactly what comfort food deserves. #DiablosBBQ #Montreal
