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
Wonderful restaurant! Been there several times throughout the years & the service is always friendly & efficient. The menu changes with the seasons & is always delicious!
Excellent bistro, localisation parfaite. Service attentif, menu plutôt standard, très bon mais sans surprise. Prix assez raides. Les vins sont souvent d'importation privée, de très bonne qualité, encore là les prix pratiqués me semblent excessifs. Un 'apportez votre vin' ferait bien mon affaire. Pour obtenir une cinquième étoile il faudrait des prix plus raisonnables, ou alors changer de registre & passer du bistrot au grand resto. Ce samedi soir, loin d'être plein, & pourtant le carnet de réservation en ligne donnait complet avant notre heure. Il suffirait sans doute d'y venir sans réservation, & ça marcherait. À corriger aussi, donc.
