Beautiful decor with a downtown feel. The food was excellent!!! The Caesar salad topped with chicken & meat balls were such a classic staple. The calamari was incredible, crispy, tasty & generous pieces. The tequila Martini is a meeting at try. Great staff, service & ambiance.

I have read a lot of the reviews & the consensus seems to be that people were satisfied with the food they ordered. Sadly, I must have been unlucky that night. Because the Margherita pizza was subpar, very little fior di latte on said pizza, crust extremely thin to the point of being very dry with burnt edges. I didn't see any Parmesan shavings on the Signature Caesar salad, maybe a few sprinkles of grated parm., no more. Furthermore, I think that the bacon was fake bacon bits & it was not a proper Caesar salad dressing on the salad, just plain mayo. I guess the chef had an off night that night. The Limoncello Spritz was good, the waitress & the service were pleasant & the food came quickly.

Met some friends for dinner. We were warmly greeted by the hostess & told our table was being cleaned. We were then led to our table with a smile. The place was full & is quite loud but expected for the average age group of the clientele. Our waitress Paige was excellent. Friendly & just engaging enough. Our friends got their appetizer 10 minutes before we got ours & they were kind enough to wait for ours to arrive. Not sure why they didn't come out together so a small hiccup. We ordered the ribs as a starter & they were excellent. Very tender & flavourful. The sauce reminded me of Tony Romas. Then for dinner we shared a Caesar salad & an all dressed pizza. I loved how the salad was prepared with chunks of lettuce. What I didn't like was almost no croutons & the dressing had a bit too much mayo & no anchovies which definitely affected the taste. Overall a decent salad. The pizza is quite large & was very good but found it too salty. I think that the pepperoni may have been the culprit. All in all an enjoyable meal & recommended.

Excellent customer service, delicious & tasty food. We were served by Mandy & she made sure we were well taken care of: answered all our questions & made sure that our experience went smoothly. As for the food, the batter in the crispy chicken in the sliders was well seasoned (not too salty unlike other places, yet packed a punch), chicken in was tender & juicy. Came with the right amount of pickle & sauce to add a bit of zing. The lemon in the Caesar salad really tied everything together. Hot pep came with a generous amount of pepperoni, honey, & hot pepper. Very pleased & very generous portions. Would come again!

If you're a food lover in Montreal's West Island, missing out on Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar would be a culinary crime. This gem of a spot marries cozy, upscale vibes with a menu that delivers both creativity & comfort in every bite. Whether you're a regular or a first-time guest, Bernie's guarantees a memorable dining experience, one that leaves your taste buds dancing & your heart fullest.

Take one look at this pizza & you'll understand why it steals the show. Perfectly cooked with a golden, crispy crust, this half-&-half masterpiece showcases the kitchen's range. One side is generously topped with mini pepperoni, pepperocini peppers & Mike's hot honey, bringing a perfect balance of spice & tang that complements the melty, rich mozzarella. The other half? A mushroom lover's dream. Earthy, caramelized mushrooms blanket the cheesy surface, adding deep umami flavor that pairs wonderfully with the subtle sharpness of the cheese & truffle flavours. It's a pizza that caters to every craving & executes both halves to perfection.

If you're looking for something hearty & soul-warming, Bernie's meatball dish is simply divine. These aren't your average meatballs they're tender, juicy, & bursting with flavor, served in a robust tomato sauce that's clearly been simmered to perfection. You can taste the love & old-school Italian influence in every bite. It's the kind of dish that transports you straight to Nonna's Sunday dinner table with a little bit of a twist due to the cinnamon notes you get as well.

Even a Caesar salad gets the star treatment at Bernie's. Crisp romaine is tossed in a creamy, tangy house-made dressing that hits all the right notes garlicky, savory, with a hint of lemon. Topped with fresh parmesan shavings & crispy croutons, it's a refreshingly bold starter that could easily stand alone as a light, satisfying meal.

Disappointed & disgusted with Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar July 5, 2025
Four us went here to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We chose 4 different pizzas so we could try a few different ones. To our shock, all the pizzas were burnt! Not just the outer crust but the bottoms of the pizzas as well. We called over our server, showed her the worst charred pizza & asked for a replacement. About 15 minutes later, the replacement arrived & it was burnt also. At this point we were fed up, asked for our bill & left, vowing to never return. Aside from the burnt pizzas (5 in all) the noise level is ridiculously loud & the tables are very tightly crammed in together. I gave 2 stars because they play great music & the decor is cute. Also, the Caesar salad was good as were the beef sliders & fries. You can see my full review with photos on West Island Honest Reviews & Breaking Bread West Island.

West Island Gem! Sat at the bar with a friend & had an amazing time. The ambiance was warm & inviting, with a vibe that made it easy to relax & enjoy the evening. The cheesy bread was unreal. Best Caesar salad I've ever had. Will definitely be back 🙌🏼

Bernie's Pizza Martini Bar was fantastic! The pizza, calamari, & Caesar salad were all amazing - fresh, flavorful, & clearly made with care. The martinis were also perfect, expertly mixed & a great complement to the meal.
The only downside was that the appetizers & main meal came out nearly at the same time, which made the table crowded & the meal feel rushed. It would be much better if the courses were staggered to allow guests to properly enjoy each dish.
Overall, a great spot that I would definitely visit again!

Seating was a bit too crowded & too close for comfort for our liking; we were part of the conversation of the tables next to either side of us. We understand maximizing your space but you're practically sitting with the people at the next table. Pizza was good but a bit too oily, could be due to the generous amount of pepperoni on the all dressed we ordered. The size is large enough to share for 2 people. Fries were skinny & spot on. Caesar salad was extra generous with the dressing, the way I like a caesar. My glass of sangria was more juice than wine though. Service & owner extremely polite & efficient. Enjoyable first time, except for the table proximity.
