Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar serves thin-crust artisan pizzas crafted with hand-stretched dough and locally sourced toppings. The menu focuses on elevated comfort food, pairing signature pies with a sophisticated selection of classic and contemporary martini cocktails. Guests encounter an industrial-chic atmosphere defined by exposed brick and warm ambient lighting. The kitchen emphasizes high-heat stone baking to achieve a perfectly charred crust on every specialty pizza variety offered. Beyond the oven, the bar program features artisanal spirits and house-made mixers designed to complement the savory profiles of the food. This establishment operates as a refined hybrid space, balancing the casual nature of a traditional pizzeria with the polished aesthetic of an upscale cocktail lounge to create a distinct social experience for all patrons.
Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar is widely regarded as a vibrant and trendy destination in the West Island, known for its lively atmosphere, stylish decor, and extensive selection of martinis. Many patrons praise the menu for its delicious, thin-crust pizzas, fresh salads, and popular appetizers like the meatballs and burrata dip. While numerous visitors highlight the impeccable, friendly, and attentive service, the restaurant is consistently described as being very cramped, with tables placed closely together, which can lead to high noise levels and a lack of privacy. Although the vast majority of guests have a wonderful experience, some feedback notes inconsistencies in food quality, such as burnt crusts or overly salty sauces, and occasional frustrations regarding reservation availability and unexpected pricing surcharges.
Great place with delicious food, excellent cocktails, & a fantastic ambiance. It's definitely one of the best spots to relax & spend time in the West Island. The staff are warm & welcoming, the service is great, & the music creates the perfect atmosphere.
The Caesar salad was extraordinary one of the best I've had & the crème brûlée was excellent too. Highly recommended for a fun night out or a casual evening with friends!
Nice pizza spot in the West Island! I've heard a lot about his place so decided to try it & not disappointed. We started with some of the truffle fries & drinks, I think the fries could have had more flavour to them, & Parmesan for parm fries, cocktails were very good.
For the pizza we noticed other guests who had done half half so we were able to do that as well (although the waitress did not mention it, would have been good to know at the beginning) so we did half the verde & half the spicy pepperoni & was super delicious! They cut essentially square pieces that make it easy to pick up & eat, & share with someone else. I did find the fries a bit more oily that average, as well as the pizza (I had a pretty good grease pool on my little plate that dripped off the pizza) which was the downside for me, otherwise flavour was good. I would definitely come back. We sat outside on the terasse which was nice, when I went in to use the bathroom I realized inside the resto it was very noisy. I would definitely recommend a reservation as it was full the whole time.
This place never disappoints. My friends & I came to eat & have some drinks on a very last minute & the staff did not fail to accommodate! The food is always amazing but this time we got the mixed salad, burrata dip, meat balls, chicken sliders, & the italian verde pizza & our previous expectations were exceeded. Our service by Sam was excellent & our server was quick, thorough, & super helpful. Would recommend any day of the week & will definitely be coming back!

Ici on vient surtout pour l'ambiance. Un genre de 5 à 7-souper-boire un verre-musique qui donne une belle adresse pour sortir avec les amis & prendre quelques Martinis (bon choix varié) & partager une pizza sise au milieu de la table.
On aime bien la musique qui est présente, orte, mais pas trop.
Le service qui est courtois, rapide & présent.
La nourriture qui est bonne sans être'wow' car ce n'est pas le but ultime de l'adresse.
Petite note pour le service: avisez quand il y a un extra. Le Dirty Magtini avec la tequila est bon, mais la shot de 8$ pour la tequila proposée par notre serveur aurait dû être menaitonnée. Même chose pour la vodka à 3$.
Mis à part les suppléments'surprise' le tout demeure très sympa. Recommend 👍
Honestly one of the top tier restaurants in Montreal & a great find in the West Island! Service was really really good & the gentleman serving us was very nice! Pizza was top notch! Highly recommend!
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😋
Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar what can I say.. The West-Island needed a spot like this. Cool atmosphere, unpretentious vibe, straightforward menu, good food & drinks & excellent friendly service. I would recommend reserving if you want to be guaranteed a table as this place was still full past 10pm.
J'ai été chez Bernies pour la première fois & je n'ai pas été déçue. Les meilleurs calmars frits que j'ai mangé depuis longtemps & que dire de leur pizza. L'ambiance est chaleureuse, on se croirait au centre-ville! Je recommande 100% & je reviendrai c'est certain !
