After the first review, I re-visited a few places to check their product consistency.

The Small Fry: Best Value, Good Quality
my colleagues and I have gone back to this place several times and their poutine is generally very good and considered one of the best so far. Fries are generally well cooked, although when they are busy during the lunch hours, the quality of fries (how they are cooked) may fluctuate... sometimes they are overcooked or undercooked. However, the value is always good: they serve a good portion size of fries with a generous amount of curds and their homemade gravy. So far, this is the only place that uses real squeaky (i.e., fresh) cheese curds.

Jimmy's: OK deal with some inconsistency
Their poutine is essentially the same as that of the Small Fry's, same gravy and same squeaky cheese. Yet, their quality is, somehow, not the same as the Small Fry's. The last time I had their poutine, the fries were really bad (mixture of ready-to-burn and completely undercooked soggy fries), and the gravy was burned a bit.

Bubba's in downtown (not the one in the hub): Good fries and Good gravy
Their fries are consistently good. Well cooked and crunchy enough. A generous amount of gravy and cheese is also a good selling point of this poutine; yet, the cheese is the melty kind, rather than squeaky. That is the only negative so far -- well that and I wished their price was slightly lower.
