My bride & I were visiting Montreal & had the most amazing dining experience at BIS Restaurant.

The staff would have made a bad food experience excellent all by itself…..but what they did was make excellent food even better.

Paloma served us & was truly a pleasure to talk to. Her recommendations were spot on, her attentiveness was spot on & she was just overall amazing. Many of the staffed also stopped by our table to make sure all was well.

The food was fantastic Italian. ( as a former New Yorker I'd like to think I know good Italian food) Serving portions were perfect! The food came at a great pace & the temperature & quality were pure perfection.

The atmosphere is exactly what you want. Not a huge place , very cozy yet not crowded, welcoming, comfortable, & nothing was rushed at any point.

As i regularly visit Montreal on business, & have many friends there, this place will be my go to from here on out.

Rocket salad served in a Parmesan bowl was a treat
Veal saltimbocca with pasta was excellent
Lemon cake & Abogatta was amazing!

My gut tells me that the whole menu is great, & I intend to find out!

Qu'elle belle soirée, un succulent repas avec un service impeccable comme on n'en voit peu aujourd'hui & une discussion animée avec le propriétaire Marcello qui a bien fini la soirée. Un incontournable lors de notre prochaine visite à Montréal. Merci à vous M. Marcello & à toute votre équipe

Loved this place! Even though we came in close to closing time, the staff treated us like they had just opened warm, attentive, & no rush at all. The Italian food was amazing, full of rich flavor, & the whole place was spotless & quiet. Service was top-notch, & the staff were super friendly. A truly great dining experience 10/10, highly recommend!

We had a fantastic dinner! The poached halibut special was delicious & my wife really enjoyed the linguine all'ortolana (made with GF penne). We shared an arugula in parmesan bowl salad that was also superb..

Our waiter was great & so was the atmosphere! We'll definitely go again next time we're in Montreal.
