Bis Ristorante est décrit comme une adresse italienne haut de gamme à Montréal offrant une cuisine authentique et une grande variété de plats savoureux, dont pasta, risotto, gnocchi et ragù d'agneau, servis dans une ambiance chaleureuse et intime propice à la conversation. Le service est largement salué pour son professionnalisme et son attention, contribuant à une expérience globale très positive bien que certains avis mentionnent des ralentissements occasionnels et des tables parfois trop rapprochées. L'atmosphère romantique et le cadre soigné sont fréquemment cités comme des atouts pour les dîners en couple ou entre amis, avec un personnel attentif et sympathique. Certains retours pointent des points à améliorer, comme des plats parfois surcuits ou réchauffés et des portions qui peuvent varier, ou une fin de soirée moins idéale lorsque certains détails du service ne répondent pas aux attentes. L'offre de vins est appréciée mais certains souhaiteraient plus de diversité, notamment des options californiennes, et les prix sont jugés élevés mais justifiés par la qualité des ingrédients et le soin apporté à chaque plat.
Bis is a wonderful restaurant. We go often & are never ever disappointed. Lots of choice plus special dishes prepared for the day &... everything is delicious from start to finish !! Highly recommended!
We visit Montreal at least twice every year. & no visit is complete without experiencing dining at BIS. We celebrated my birthday there last night - & were treated like royalty. From the initial greeting at the door to the final goodbyes & handshakes, everyone made us feel welcomed, special & at home. The service at BIS is so professional yet friendly & cheerful. The food is beyond amazing - we enjoyed the specials last night - lasagna & duck breast. I wish I could describe how delicious they both were but alas, words would not do either of those dishes justice. If you don't dine at BIS, then you are missing one of Montreal's true great dining experiences. We will be back in Montreal this summer - & back at BIS for sure!

I want to give BIS 5 stars, but it's hard to with how my dinner went after spending $300. I'll break it down with cons & pros to leave on a high note.
Cons;
- In the pictures, BIS looks like a small intimate restaurant with great ambiance for a date. This is true, except it's very loud when busy. Can't blame this on the restaurant, but sound absorbing paintings (cloth canvas) on the wall would help immensely. My date was not as expected because we had to nearly yell at each other. There was no music until half the place emptied. Once that occurred, the jazz they put on was a nice touch.
- We had no less than 4 different waiters all in various states of rushing (again can't blame them, it was busy, but why not assign waiters?). Some treated you as you would expect at an elevated restaurant (ie; when my gf asked to have the wine menu described/recommendations, our waiter was fantastic at explaining the wine menu. However, when asking on recommendations on the food another waiter got a bit too...Italian? Said they'll make it however we want in a loud boisterous voice. We're not Italian. We don't know what we want, which is why we asked for recommendations. This is something you say to a regular. It was friendly, but off, & my date felt pressured.)
- My date slipped down the stairs on the way to the bathroom. She's 120lbs, so this is not a weight thing. I thought maybe it's because she wore heels. No, I went as well & the laminate flooring is either ultra buffed or washed with something maybe not meant for it. It was like ice even in my wide dress shoes.
- The creme brulee is listed in mini & large, but was only available in large. Wait what? Did you run out of small dishes? I understand a specific wine or meat being out, but this is creme brulee.
- The bathrooms are...well, a $5 breakfast Diner bathroom spruced up with neat little tricks. Guys, please renovate the bathrooms.
Pros:
- I booked via phone message & got a call shortly after to confirm my reservation. Not sure if it was the owner but they were very courteous & made me feel valued.
- The food & cocktails were great. I got the filet mignon which was done perfectly to my order.
- Once the business died down, the night time atmosphere with the jazz music was classy & intimate.
- Service timing was excellent. Not too fast or slow. So while we did have 4 different waiters, everything was perfectly timed. Kudos!
I think BIS is an excellent restaurant that could elevate to 5 stars with a few small improvements.
Service & food were impeccable, went there with 5 friends prior to a hockey game at the Bell Center & service for the quality of food was very impressive, had plenty of time to make it to the event on time. We've all had the house appetizer which was delicious but all had different dishes for main course from Veal to Lamb & fish, all was well presented & tasty
Food; 2 dishes , salmon & veal with mushrooms,very good, two pasta dishes bad.
Srvice; OK except see comment re being rushed.
Ambience very good except menu font too small for comfort.
