Poutine is junk food. It's basically fries with gravy and cheese curds. I would say it's our equivalent of the corn dog in some parts of the US. Nothing really mind-blowingly good (unlike some people are trying to sell it as the new hip thing would like you to think) but when you grow up eating it, it's hard to imagine a world without it. It's decent in pretty much any "la belle province" (a food chain in Quebec). If you want something fancier, or even add couple ingredients to the recipe, "La banquise" in Montreal is a well know place for a reason, i would recommend going there but try the classic one before experimenting with their variations.
