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!!!

Serviço pouco gentil, garçons arrogantes. Pratos deixam a desejar em sabor, apesar da boa apresentaçao. Profireroles abaixo da média.

An authentic Italian Bistro. This small restaurant is such a lovely little Italian find! Our hotel, the Ritz, recommended it as a casual & walkable neighborhood restaurant. The food was fabulous & the service was also wonderful. We enjoyed salads, pasta & veal limone with profiteroles for a sweet finish. Cocktails & wine selection also impressive. So fabulous!

We loved our dinner selections which included the Osso buco, shrimp risotto, & pasta with chorizo. Service was efficient & helpful. We happened to be at Bis when there were multiple birthday celebrations ongoing, thus the noise level was high. Great experience!
