Feel like you're on Montreal's St Laurent Boulevard in the heart of Berkeley. Augie's serves its own Montreal-style smoked meat on rye bread (smoked, slated brisket), delicious plates of poutine (french fries, gravy and cheese curds) and even uses sauce imported from Quebec! It also has a fantastic selection of beer.
