Blandino is a neighbourhood Italian inspired seasonal bistro, bar, and patio that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner as well as take out. Its name pays homage to Carmelo Blandino, a Montreal based artist whose work adorns the side of the building. Atelier Zébulon Perron created a nostalgic yet contemporary design that changes as the day progresses. The atmosphere allows for a comfortable corporate lunch meeting or a casual cocktail amongst friends. Come in for a quick coffee, a meal, or an aperitivo. Delivery is also available.
Brasserie Blandino is described as a lively spot with Italian and French fare including strong pizzas, where the atmosphere and attentive staff are frequently praised but several visits were affected by slow service and food arriving cold or undercooked; cocktails and drinks are seen as a highlight, especially when paired with good value during happy hours, and the venue is noted as great for groups and events, though noise and occasional menu inconsistencies or price concerns can detract from the experience; overall it is perceived as having real potential with hospitality and ambiance shining through, while kitchen timing and consistency could use improvement.
Amazing experience at Blandino. Went there with a couple of friends, the atmosphere was vibrant yet refined, the food was delicious & the service truly elevated the night.
Benjamin, the GM, personally checked in to make sure everything was perfect. Felipe delivered impeccable service. Very friendly, efficient, & attentive. They both made the experience memorable, & I'll definitely be coming back. ¡Muchas gracias!

Very very sad expirince very disrespectful 😢 service & we did not get what was ordered, & it took them so much time to prepare... that we really gsve up & went out inspite of the fact that we prepaid breakfast. The Manager complaint - didn't unfortunately bring any compensation offer??? What are you thinking?
Souper en famille. Notre serveur Felipe était vraiment professionnel, attentionné & sympathique. Les repas succulents & le rythme des services était génial. Un must dans ce secteur.
Went for dinner on the first night of arriving to the hotel. The vibe was really nice, but the music was a bit too loud. Especially being in close proximity to other tables, you have to raise your voice to speak to who you're dining with. Being vegetarian, I knew my options would be limited. I was surprised though, to see that so many pasta dishes etc had veal stock in it. My only options were one pasta dish & the veg pizza. I ended up getting the pizza, which was good (although I was expecting fresh mozzarella & not shredded). My fiance had the seabass which he enjoyed.
Our last morning, we wanted to order room service for breakfast, but when I called to order this wasn't an option as they only had two servers. I can understand that, but maybe it's worth mentioning to the front desk so that they have the right info for guest, because the front desk had informed me that this was an option when I asked how room service worked on our first night. We ended up just doing pick-up. We ordered the breakfast sandwich, which was really good, although I had to ask to remove 2 different kinds of meat. I asked to add an extra egg instead & they obliged...but a vegetarian version would be nice, so that the price reflects. We also had the pancakes. The quantity was sufficient, however, it was supposed to come with fruit & it had exactly 6 blueberries, & was also missing the butter. For $16 pancakes, I would definitely expect a good amount of fruit.
Please consider adding a couple more veg options... Even one vegan option would be nice.

Mediocre food at best. My gnocchi pasta had way too much red sauce & not enough meat. Frankly it felt like it was cooked earlier in the day & they had just warmed it up in the microwave.
Had the burger & a couple of beers during happy hour - no complaints. Service time was average & solid atmosphere of what I'd expect a dinner time hotel resto would be. I'd come back again.
Notre barmaid Philippe, il est incroyable comme personne, toujours à l'écoute & offre un service en or. Chaque verre goûtait le plaisir. Un gros merci, une première ici, mais pas la dernière.
Don't try to seat a middle aged woman at the bar to eat. The host was clueless & annoyed others with seating. The food was okay, but I'll never eat here again even though I'm staying at the hotel for another 4 nights.
