The Holder brothers welcome you to their beautiful Brasserie Bernard for a pleasant evening or a friendly lunch. This place has become a classic on Bernard Street in the beautiful Outremont district; the neighbourhood’s charm contributes greatly to the charm of the restaurant. Try their fine but unpretentious European cuisine, in a warm, elegant and vibrant atmosphere
Overall Brasserie Bernard earns praise for its warm Parisian brasserie vibe, comfortable and spacious setting, attentive and friendly service, and a varied menu that delivers well executed classics such as moules frites, onion soup, ravioli, duck confit and steak frites, with desserts like pavlova and pudding chomeur also mentioned; the ambiance and wine list are frequently highlighted and the place is described as lively yet suitable for couples, groups or special occasions, though a few reviews note noise levels and occasional slower service when busy and a few dishes that lack salt balance or are priced high for the portion; many guests say they would return, recommend Brasserie Bernard, and consider it a top French bistro experience in Montreal
C'était la première fois mais définitivement pas la dernière. Nous l'avons d'ailleurs déjà recommandée à des amis pas plus tard que ce matin. Le bouche à oreille fait son oeuvre.
J'étais de retour pour les moules & les frites, toujours un bon choix, mais la surprise fut le dessert du jour, un gros macaron avec une crème aux noisettes, un régal !
We--five old friends/colleagues--ubered over to Brasserie Bernard on a dark & rainy night. We had the most fun from start to finish. We all loved our food. The wait staff were really nice to us. I appreciated that.
