Belle découverte cette Brasserie Bernard! L'accueil, le service avec Annie! Merci Annie! La nourriture, le délai imposé pour quitter! Tout était parfait! Nous sommes retournées après notre spectacle!
We got the veal ravioli, scallops, & a dozen oysters. The scallops & ravioli needed the slightest touch more of salt, it felt missing. The meal did not'wow' me, it was expensive ($60 per person) & nothing filled us up. The sauces made the food yummy. I did not like the Apple shreds on the scallops meal. The scallop sauces were phenomenal.
Belle découverte! Les plats étaient goûteux! Le doré délicieux! Que dire de l'entrée de foie gras! Wow! Service impeccable. Annie nous a aidé pour l'accord met vin & c'était parfait! On va y retourner!
La brasserie est un endroit où je vais régulièrement & je suis toujours contente d'y retourner. Mais hier, les plats manquaient de sauce! Les raviolis au veau était un peu secs, le pudding chômeur était
Sec aussi & avait un arrière goût de métal, peut être à cause du plat en fonte. Un peu déçue mais j'y retrouverai quand même…
Been coming here since it opened & have never been disappointed. We were a party of six & were warmly received. We had three servers throughout the night but they were all kind & welcoming & did an excellent job. Noise level is on the higher end so you will need to be aware that conversations can be a challenge. It was busy for a Monday night but I imagine that it was extra busy due to the holiday season. My fish & chips was very good. Perfectly moist fish in a batter that had some crispy parts & some softer parts which I prefer. The fries were also well prepared & sadly, the portion of the included slaw was TINY. It was delicious & I wish they would give you a decent quantity. All in all another great experience & will definitely be back.
C est toujours Agréable de venir manger a la brasserie ! C est BON , L ambiance y est Chaleureuse & le staff très sympathique ! Un Incontournable si vous passez par Montreal.
Warm & welcoming décor. Great brunch menu reasonably priced. Professional staff with genuine smiles. Weather being miserable outside yet the experience inside was enjoyable.
Thank you BB
I had the salmon tartare as an entree & sea bass a main, both very delicious As for dessert I had the pear meringue with chocolate ice cream covered in i believe a cream praline. Need I say more - scrumptious!
