Annette Bar à Vin fonctionne comme un établissement axé sur le marché qui privilégie l'intégrité des ingrédients de saison et la générosité des produits de la mer. La cuisine met en avant des techniques culinaires créatives, soulignant fréquemment des préparations de fruits de mer frais qui reflètent une approche moderne des saveurs régionales. Chaque assiette témoigne de la polyvalence des protéines issues de l'océan, souvent associées à des produits maraîchers sélectionnés auprès de partenaires agricoles locaux. L'environnement reste intentionnellement concentré sur la relation entre les composants bruts et une exécution raffinée, garantissant que l'intégrité de chaque plat demeure l'objectif principal. Les clients découvrent une sélection rigoureuse de bouteilles complétant les profils nets et précis du menu. Cet engagement envers une cuisine centrée sur le produit transforme les fruits de mer et légumes simples en expressions complexes du savoir-faire culinaire contemporain.
Annette Bar à Vin est largement reconnu comme une destination culinaire dynamique, appréciée pour son menu créatif et délicieux ainsi que pour sa vaste carte des vins soigneusement sélectionnée. Les clients soulignent régulièrement la grande qualité des ingrédients de saison et la finesse de préparation des plats, notamment le tartare de bœuf et les champignons frits. Bien que l'atmosphère soit constamment décrite comme chaleureuse, élégante et propice aux rencontres, certains convives trouvent le niveau sonore élevé et les portions parfois modestes compte tenu du prix. L'expérience de service varie sensiblement d'une visite à l'autre; beaucoup mettent en avant le professionnalisme et les conseils avisés du personnel, tandis que d'autres notent des irrégularités dans le rythme du service ou des interactions moins agréables. Dans l'ensemble, cet établissement demeure une adresse prisée par ceux en quête d'une expérience gastronomique à la fois sophistiquée et décontractée, suscitant chez de nombreux clients une réelle envie d'y retourner.
J'ai adoré : l'omble choux fleur & noisettes est parfaitement balancé, la sélection de vin. Le service amical mais professionnel.
Je suggère pour une soirée entre amies.
I went to Annette for a Christmas party with a group, so I will say upfront that it might not reflect the typical experience since the restaurant was hosting several groups that evening.
We had a special group menu with plates to share. The food quality was genuinely good. Everything we tasted was well prepared & flavorful. That said, for the price per person, I was honestly expecting more generous portions. The shared plates were very small, sometimes just a few bites each, which felt a bit disappointing considering that drinks & wine were not included in the set price.
On the positive side, the atmosphere was lively & pleasant, & the service was very friendly despite how busy it was. They also have an impressive wine selection with what feels like hundreds of options, which is definitely a strong point.
Overall, a good experience, but I would be curious to try it on a regular night to get a better sense of it.

Great selection of wine/cocktails. Serving French dishes with modern twist. Serving size is relatively small, perfect to share for two people. Good service. Nice atmosphere.
Creative but precisely crafted food. Beef tartare & macreuse are a must for meat lovers. Wine selection is good & cover a large range. Service attentive & courteous, we needed several hit & miss trials to find the right wine for our tastebuds & were patiently accommodated :)
J'ai trouvé cette place correct mais elle ne sortait pas du lot en terme de bar à vin, comparé aux autres dans le quartier. Leur sélection de vins nature pourrait être plus variée, la bouffe est bonne, l'ambiance est chic. Je n'y retournerai surment pas mais je conseillerais tout de même l'endroit à des monsieurs/madames de la petite bourgeoise
Service was really great. Staff was super helpful & proposing wines, pairings & all. The spot is nice & makes for a cozy & fun experience. Food was honestly a hit & miss. The quality of the ingredients were second to none but the overall offering & the way the menu is structured lets a lot to be desired... Since ( I think ) the menu is build around seasonnal & local ingredients (which is great), many ingredients are repeated in many dishes. So if you don't like some ingredients, you might have to skip 4 or 5 items on the menu. Might not be a problem for some but might be problematic for others. Also, the menu descriptions are so basic that you might not get exactly what you were looking for. For example, they have a fresh pea dip with feta. It was tasty & fresh & everything, but the dish was covered in fresh mint. So every bite tasted like mint. If you don't like mint, you just wasted 16$ on a dish you won't enjoy. Same goes for another dish, the tempura zucchini flowers that are stuffed with some cheese. It's covered in caviar or something similar. The caviar is definitely there to justify the price, yet not mentioned on the menu. Also, some dishes, who are tapas style & meant to be shared, aren't really sharable. Like those zucchini flowers. They come as 3. 3 shares well with 3 person & that's it! The menu should be more descriptive & includes more details. Just naming 3 ingredients might look really fancy & edgy, but it is not very fonctionnal for guests with dietary restrictions or people who don't like certain ingredients or who are closely watching what they eat. I'll go back as the wine selection is great & allows to taste wines who are not readily available elsewhere (SAQ) but I'll definitely need to triple check the menu & ask a ton of questions next time.
Very nice cozy space in the Angus Shop area. Let's start with the wine selection. They have a nice wine list with a lot of private imports. The food is more tapas style. The menu is small, but everything is well prepared. The service is friendly. The staff is attentive to your needs & will never let you have an empty glass (which is a +++ on happy hours!). The sommelier is knowledgeable & will have great recommendations to pair with your snacks. Overall, this is a beautiful place for a chill upscaled happy hour or night out. The vibe & decor makes it very welcoming!
