About

Buvette Chez Simone operates as a classic bistro focused on the art of traditional charcuterie and carefully curated small plates. The interior space reflects a functional design intended to highlight the quality of cured meats, terrines, and artisanal cheeses served on wooden boards. Guests encounter an environment centered on straightforward culinary preparation where raw ingredients remain the primary focus of every dish presented. The menu emphasizes consistent flavor profiles through seasonal accompaniments like pickled vegetables, crusty baguette slices, and savory spreads. Every selection demonstrates a dedication to authentic French techniques that prioritize substance over unnecessary kitchen complexity. This establishment maintains a disciplined approach to the preparation of cured goods while providing a balanced selection of beverages designed to complement the salt-forward nature of the featured food items.

Review Summary

Buvette Chez Simone is widely regarded as a fantastic destination in the Mile End for its welcoming atmosphere, impressive wine list, and high-quality small plates like roast chicken, gnocchi, and cod fritters. Many visitors praise the cozy decor and attentive service, noting it as an ideal spot for dates or private gatherings. While the experience is frequently described as delicious and memorable, some patrons express concerns regarding high prices, small portion sizes, and a noisy environment that can make conversation difficult during peak hours.

Only had a few glasses of wine so can't comment on food. Great atmosphere as this place was buzzing on a Thursday evening. Managed to get a table on the terrace & was served by a lovely waitress who definitely knew her wine.

The perfect bar, great Quebec wines by the glass. The bartender was excellent. The lighting & vibe was perfect for a casual date night. Get the roast chicken, it was phenomenal!

Food & wine are pretty decent, atmosphere is great. What's absolutely terrible is the service & wait times. 20 mins for 2 fritters & roasted morel mushrooms on hummus, plus another 30 mins afterwards for salad & fish - all tapas-style dishes (I guess they're hoping you can down a few more drinks while waiting, which I find is a very aggressive sales tactic).

The gentlemen who I believe is the manager is cool but he can't run the entire show by himself. One of the staff members is by far the bad apple in the place. Expect to feel unwelcomed & to be treated with a very cold approach from her. It's def not an isolated situation as we've been there multiple times in the past couple years & it's been the same. We just lost our patience this time when she told us'it happens' & walked away, while we were trying to express our concern regarding the wait time for our food order.

To the manager's credit, he did offer sincere apologies & invited us back for a better experience the next time.

This is definitely the place to be if you're in the Mile End neighborhood. There is a comprehensive wine list & the staff is very focused on you finding the wine you like. I would definitely give an extra star for service. In addition, there is great food to accompany the wine. I would highly recommend the cod fritters!
The crowd inside is diverse & friendly. A great place to spend an evening!

Stunning! Fabulous experience. We let our server pick 4 bottles of wine & enough food for 10 people. The pacing was perfect, food was balanced, & service was impeccable. No notes!
