What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?
According to TVmaze, season 1, episode 13 of You Gotta Eat Here!, aired 2012-08-12, covered Schwartz's deli in Montreal along with two other restaurants; the TVmaze summary names no dish. Wikipedia lists Schwartz's as a Jewish delicatessen at 3895 Saint-Laurent Boulevard, founded in 1928, with the Nakis and Angélil-Dion families as owners since 2012. The Infatuation's review (published 2022-09-07, updated 2024-12-20) describes its smoked meat sandwich on rye with yellow mustard as the main draw. Wikipedia also reported that the deli received a Recommended listing in Quebec's first Michelin Guide in 2025.
In October 2026 the Michelin Guide's Schwartz's page, part of its 2026 Canada edition, listed hours of 10:00 to 23:00 Sunday through Thursday and 10:00 to midnight Friday and Saturday. The deli's own website, viewed that month, offers local delivery through DoorDash and Uber Eats and an online shop for spices, gift certificates and clothing.
