Halal burgers, jerk chicken poutine, and comfort food
Showtime Bistro
Really good. Showtime has solid burgers and their jerk chicken poutine is a standout — a creative combination that works really well. It's a bit on the pricier side but the portions are decent and the quality justifies the cost.
What to Order
The jerk chicken poutine — that's the signature. The burgers are also solid.
Must Try
Jerk chicken poutine. It's the dish that defines this place.
Our take from the visit
A solid halal bistro with a few really good items. The jerk chicken poutine is the reason to visit and it consistently delivers. Good value for the quality and a fun, reliable spot.
