Reviews describe Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar as a busy, stylish spot with a vibrant vibe where thin crust pizzas, flavorful toppings, and a wide range of martinis and cocktails are frequently praised. The space is often lively and can be perfect for date nights or groups, and portions are generous enough to share, with friendly, attentive service highlighted by many. While the food and drinks are generally well received, some reviews note occasional uneven kitchen results, a noisy atmosphere, and high prices, so reservations are recommended to secure a table.
I recently visited Bernie's Pizza Bar & unfortunately left underwhelmed. The caesar salad was over-dressed, with unevenly distributed sauce-some leaves were drenched while others had thick clumps of dressing pooled at the base, making it unpleasant to eat.
The cocktails were also disappointing. I ordered one with cranberry juice & ginger, but it barely had any ginger flavor. Overall, the drinks felt mediocre & not particularly well-balanced.
As for the pizza, it was just okay-nothing memorable or exciting. There are definitely better options elsewhere if you're looking for standout pizza.
The space itself is quite small, & you shouldn't expect to get in without a reservation. Even with one, we were given a poorly placed table right in the middle of foot traffic. As people squeezed past, they brushed against our table, dragged their jackets across our dishes, & even shifted our plates, which made the whole experience feel cramped & intrusive.
Overall, not a terrible experience, but not one I'd rush to repeat.

Visit was arranged by a friend who knows this place well & it did not disappoint.
Being able to try two types of pizza was appreciated & encouraged. The cocktails were well crafted & added to the already positive experience.
HIGHLY recommend if you are paying a visit to Montreal's burbs.
SUPER YUMMY! Our waiter was Anthony & he was amazing. I have gluten restrictions & he made me feel confident in the food I was ordering & catered to my restrictions impeccably. He also answered every question we had with confidence & if he wasn't sure, he asked. The gluten free crust on the pizza is also divine & don't get me started on their dirty martinis, WOW!! Overall a very good experience & would deem it an amazing first date spot. Definitely recommend Anthony as a waiter & get a dirty martini😋
We went for a group birthday party last night - which is always a good test for how a restaurant performs - & it was delicious! Very fairly priced group menu at $45 pp & included multiple appetizers like Caesar salad, crispy/spicy calamari, mini fried chicken sliders (my fave) & cheesy garlic buns. You get one pizza per group of 4 but you can do half/half for toppings & it's a large thin crust pizza cut into squares so more than enough. We got the hot pep & the ricotta (nut-free) pesto & both were very tasty! The dessert was a the kicker bc I haven't had a good old fashion large cookie freshly baked with an ice cream on top in years at a resto! Everything was really good & the vibe was on point.

Been to Bernie's multiple times for birthdays, hangouts, & random last-minute nights out. Always a go-to spot for food. It's usually busy so definitely make a reservation, but it's 100% worth it. Easily one of those places that becomes a regular.
The food was very delicious! The beef sliders & pizza were yummy, we got to do half white sauce & half pesto sauce which was very nice. The decoration inside is amazing & so is the service! Would definitely come again.
The food wasn't what I expected. I would say the portions are big for what you're paying but it wasn't that different than other oven pizzas I've tried, & the Caesar salad was kind of bland. The garlic bread was the deal breaker.
