Review Summary

Overview of the reviews shows Bis Ristorante as a warmly inviting, authentic Italian dining spot with many diners praising flavorful, generously portioned dishes, a cozy romantic vibe, and attentive service, along with strong wine recommendations and a varied menu. The lamb dishes, seafood risotto, gnocchi, and house tomato sauce are frequently highlighted as standout items, and many guests say the experience feels upscale and worth the price. A few experiences note inconsistencies such as slower service, uneven pacing, and at times overcooked or not fully satisfying dishes, but overall the restaurant is described as a memorable place worth returning to, especially for date nights or celebrations.

I had an exceptional dining experience at this upscale Italian restaurant. The ambiance was warm & elegant, the service attentive without being intrusive, & every dish-from the freshly made pasta to the impeccably prepared entrées-was bursting with authentic flavor. The wine selection was superb. Highly recommended!

Ciao, the only reason I gave you guys four stars is because of the wine list. You need to add some California wines, both red & white. My wife & I usually get a bottle of CA Chardonnay with dinner but all you had was Italian wines. Overhaul your wine list & you will be the best Italian restaurant in Quebec. Grazie!!

First visit. Will def return. Visiting Montreal for the weekend from Ontario. Made a reservation (preferred). Our server, Paloma, was exceptional. Attentive, friendly & professional. (& we were offered to taste the wine we selected to ensure we liked it) We were not rushed,.which was appreciated. Loved that they poured the olive oil/balsamic at our table) The food was amazing - fresh, authentic Italian. Portions were larger than we expected. I had gnocchi & husband had pork cheek carbonara. The mini meatballs (complimentary) were delicious. Great ambiance, low lighting & music in.the background - not loud. Perfect for a date night. Thank you! 😁

During my visit to Montreal I went for a random lunch & found the food to be amazingly good. This is a small yet homely Italian ristorante . Loved their food & they have real good selection of wine.

We came here for a birthday dinner . Staff were amazing. From the personalized greeting, to the food recommendations to the wine tasting it was all so elegant & delightful. The amuse bouche & bread at the beginning were a nice touch. Food was amazing. Will definitely be back soon

I don't even know how to start this review, the food, the service, the atmosphere, the experience?
It was so excellent that I kept thinking about our experiences at Bis during the rest of the day. It was my first time with a friend here, Marcelo, the manager, greeted us & made us feel home, the waitress was so kind & professional, another waiter was so attentive that it made me feel like I am having the meal of my life.
The meat balls were phenomenal, the wine that the manager suggested was exquisite, the warm fresh bread, the olive oil & balsamic were by themselves a tasty meal. The ragù left me speechless, even though I was full, I couldn't stop eating it. My friend got the osso-buck, the meat was so tender that you can mistake for butter, even the bone marrow had an exquisite taste, as to my coteletta, it was perfection… Just perfect, thin enough to feel light & thick enough to enjoy the breaded meet. The endive salad was so tasty that I felt lost & needed a whole afternoon to just enjoy every bite.
Then we had to go all the way & have a full, complete meal. The Limoncello was refreshing, the tiramisu & crème brûlée were to die for, & even the biscotti that is served with the espresso was from another world.
To sum this up, this place to me is the best Italian cuisine I have ever had the pleasure to experience, each individual visiting Montreal like myself should try Bis Ristorante. As for the locals you guys are lucky to have this restaurant in your city.
Five stars is an understatement, thank you Bis & your team for doing what you do.

Memorable Italian meal! Cozy elegant atmosphere. Good variety of wines by the glass if you don't want a whole bottle. We shared a burrata & an arugula salad for the appetizer, then we each had our own pasta dishes. My wife had the linguine vongole & I had the tagliolini lamb ragu. The vongole was generously covered in clams & the ragu had abundant sauce. Both were flavorful & filling. Service was efficient, respectful & not rushed.

We had a two night stay in Montreal & selected this restaurant just from finding it walking around the first evening. Food, service & wine were splendid. We loved it so much we decided to go there again the second night (which sometimes ends up disappointing) but it was even better the second time. We had totally different dishes the second night & they were superb. Highly recommend!!!
