  I read some of the old reviews sporting some hefty criticism and it seems that the Asians owner do take heed at some of the remarks on Yelp for my Poutine was made with insanely hot gravy. In fact, I had to sit out 3-4 minutes for it to cool down.
  
  The portions are generous. That family size (to be shared... or not... if you wish to have a heart attack in your 30s), is a generous quantity for the low price of 11$+tax. The steamed hot dogs all dressed, 1.09$+tax each. The fries are pretty good, the cheese is typical Poutine cheese curds although the gravy seems somewhat tasteless.
  
  This isn't the best tasting food but it certainly is far from the worst. I'd place it above average but Belle Province, as far as I can remember, since my childhood, was never really about the quality but about the [(quantity+(quality/3)]/price. Yes, that's my mathematical equation for Belle Pro standards. Discounting all-you-can-eat buffets, I'd say Belle Pro gives out the best quantity/price output in the West Island. So, if you're not afraid of carbs (or if you're feeling up for your arteries to be clogged with cholesterol), this is one of the best places to have a decent snack on a budget in the West.
  
  The place is surprisingly clean and the owners are pretty friendly. Service was quick.
  
  P.S. A warning to the ladies. I've heard rumors of certain Paki employees sleazily flirting with girls. It happened to one of my friends, and, apparently, others before her.

  Everything TASTED fine when it came to flavor in itself, just isn't put together properly like it use to. I want to say that maybe it's just a new kid getting the hang of it, but like any restaurant, it's still team work and they should be watching eachothers backs.
  
  Ordered with Uber Eats and it came A LOT faster than the displayed time :) I guess because I live less than 5 min away? lol
  
  About 28$ total for the food before any taxes or fees. I ordered 3 items.
  
  No utensils or condements, or noticed they're uber menu asking me if i needed any. Good thing I was at home and not at work or something. I don't recommend this food for delivery as it would probably hold it's quality better if eaten right away in the restaurant, because apparently 5 minutes is too long for this food since they don't wrap it up in proper delivery packages.
  
  One Grilled Cheese sandwich $4.25 : This was literally just a grilled cheese sandwich I could have gotten anywhere for 2$. Regular 2 slices of white toast and kraft single cheese in the middle, and "pan-fried?". Would had been nice to have pan fried it in beef juice since they do make burgers there. If they want to go the classic simple route to a grilled cheese while charging this much, then they should have changed the bread and cheese to bring more value to the price, also offer extra charges for side orders like pickles, salted tomatoes, or coleslaw and make it into a meal instead of just the sandwhich, of which I won't be ordering again if it stays the same. Because it was wrapped in wax paper, the heat excaped, cooling it down to the point where the cheese nearly solidifies and no longer stretches :(
  
  One Smoke Meat sandwich $8.95 : This is actually pretty expensive for a smoked meat sandwich. The tiny bread was funny compared to the mountain of smoked meat, but I could live with that. What concerned me was the pale color of the meat. Tasted fine at least, nice moist and flavorful, but it came with nothing else for it's price?! Wierd, not even pickles or something... It was still more on the cold side eventhough they did wrap it up with metalic paper, so I don't know what is going on there.
  
  Medium Sized Sausage Poutine $10.45 + extra cheese $4 : They apparently think HOT DOG WEINERS are sausages?! No way, that has to be a mislead because they have "HOT DOGS" written in the rest of their menu. They need to edit that because I was really disapointed, eventhough they gave me a mountain of these sliced weiners. As I was digging in, I have to say I laughed when I realized that I was having a hard time finding the fries lol I literally had more cheese than fries LOL I shouldn't have ordered the extra cheese because they honor it way more than any other food place I've ever seen, it was almost cute lol. It also wasn't hot enough, so the cheese curds didn't semi-melt. The gravy sauce tasted nice, though the quantity was lacking, and the fries were on the light side and soft, when LBP use to make them a lot darker. They put it in a styrofoam packaged which sucks compared to their older aluminum pie packages, so not only did it leak, but most of it's heat was lost in the 5 min travel time, which is really fast, and like I said, the way they package their food is not meant to be delivered, it's meant to be eaten there at their location, and I don't think they realise that.
  
  Reading some of these reviews only now... I think the changes I noticed is all these peoples fault lol #1 You're supposed to wait a good 5 min before eating poutine ! That HEAT is the finishing touch of the cooking!
  
  To the Restaurant Owner: I know how hard it can be to please everyone. Change one thing, and the ones who previously liked it will complain lol What I wish more restaurants/fast food places would do is offer more detailed choices on orders, that way you can't really go wrong. It's not enough to just have a "note" customers can write to the restaurant for each order, because I can imagine some changes will effect the price and I don't want a restaurant to feel their budget is breaking. I do like how close this place is, so I will try it again in a year to see if any changes were put in.

  I love La Belle Province.
  
  I really wish this location was better. It goes to show you that it's a franchise, and each Storefront will be different if not managed by the same people.
  
  My sister and I came for lunch with her friend who lives nearby and knows good food.
  He told me it has just changed ownership. I spoke with the cooks and was happy to hear they're Greek, okay I'm stereotyping about how great of cooks they are.
  
  The fries were just good, the cheese was like rubber and didn't melt in the Poutine, not good.  
  
  The smoked meat sandwich was not Hot like the other ones I've had. And it seemed like the smoked meat was cheap and generic.
  
  The hands of new ownership seems to be going downhill, shame.  The decor also seems to be old and wearing down and looks dirty, again shame 50's decor should be fun, not old.

  Recently changed owners again. No longer the Asian owner. I visited 2 weeks ago for a fairly large order. The owner was at the cash and open-mouthed coughed into the register and on his hands. He then proceeded to help the cook fill the order without gloves and without washing his dirty hands. The cook had dropped a wax paper hotdog wrap on the floor, the owner picked it up and returned it to the counter and sure enough, the cook used it. Gross! If you complain - you get "the special" - better to just warn others and never return.

  I recently tried this place again after living beside it for the past 17 years ... it used to be to 50 cent hotdogs and it's always been a dump.... sad to read reviews and hear that they are still coughing on people's food and their hands ... this place has always been disgusting and I feel the need to warn people . Belle province is great but the belle province in this locating is crap... by the way their poutine is like soup
