Dans l ensemble, les avis décrivent Buvette Nicole comme un lieu chaleureux et convivial dans le Vieux-Montréal, avec une ambiance intime, un service attentif et des plats souvent délicieux et bien présentés, allant de la fondue au fromage au tartare de boeuf, en passant par le magret, les gnocchis et les choux de Bruxelles, et les cocktails ainsi que les accords mets et vins reçoivent de multiples eloges; le brunch et le happy hour sont très appréciés, et il est recommandé de réserver car les weekends peuvent être occupés, avec parfois des attentes plus longues ou des imprécisions de service, mais la chaleur du personnel et la constance de la cuisine restent des points forts; globalement, cette expérience est perçue comme un incontournable pour un repas à la fois décontracté et raffiné dans le quartier.
The food was good, but not worth the price. I had the beef tartare & pasta. I believe it was a vegetarian pesto pasta with nuts & ricotta. It was good but definitely not worth the 30 something dollars I paid.
A wonderful experience at Buvette Nicole. The Beef Bourguignon was excellent & the service was wonderfully attentive to our group of 7. Other standouts were the fois gras & cheesecake.

The food is great, good & unique combination of flavors. We had the special, the beef skewers & poutine. The special lasagna was delicious.
Good service as well.
Great service & cute spot, but the food was pretty underwhelming for the price. The beef we got had decent flavour but very salty, & the duck was low in flavour & tough. Expensive for what it was too.
Great place to grab a bite in Montréal! We sat outside & enjoyed great weather. Our server was friendly & made great recommendations. We tried the Beef Tartare, Gnocchi, & Roasted Chicken & everything was excellent.
Dropped in at this lovely French restaurant on a whim! The food is absolutely incredible! I had the beef skewers with chimichurri which were charcoal grilled & super tender. The chimichurri was also well balanced & paired so well with the beef. I also had the salmon with beurre blanc, also insanely good!
The food was amazing from the starters, including ceasar salad & foid grass, to the mains that we shared. I had the roasted duck (medium rare was perfect), & my friend had the braised beef. The wine we selected was perfectly paired. The portions were so amazing that there was no room left for dessert. We arrived at 19h00, but by 20h00, the place was packed & alive. Our two staff members were very helpful & chatty. By far, the best French bistro experience we could have hoped for in this area.

The restaurant had a lovely & unique ambience that made for a memorable setting. Our server was incredibly nice & welcoming, which really added to the experience. We had requested outdoor seating & were promptly ushered to a table outside.
As a group of five, we ordered a variety of lunch dishes including the beef tartare, beef sandwich, & black garlic gnocchis. While everything was presented well, the food itself was unfortunately a bit mediocre & didn't quite live up to our expectations.
That said, the sunny weather made for a pleasant outdoor meal, although it did start to get quite hot. Overall, it was a decent experience with standout service & atmosphere, but the food could use a little more refinement.
Wonderful service & banter from the moment we walked in. We spoke French of course but sprinkled in some English with staff easily. Arrived 10min before our reservation & it wasn't an issue seated a min or two later. Food was delicious from the escargot, beef tartare to the duck. Perfection. Note I was asked & notes were taken for allergies , favoured water & language choice. Also asked multiple times if the music was too loud but we loved the ambiance. The large windows also helped for a great view hustle & bustle of the city. Will return again !
We were here earlier this week following. a recommendation from a friend. We had a very good French Onion soup & beef tartare as appetizers. Then we had the bouillabaisse -- outstanding!! -- & the duck, which was very good also. Service was delightful & place was charming. Definitely we will return next time we're in Montreal!

We tired the Mtlatable menu. The beef tartare was so chewy & fatty. expected a better quality from a French restaurant. the steak was good but not close to the best one I've had.
If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. My husband & I went for lunch today & sat at the bar because it looked so cozy. The decor of the place is super stylish & inviting. We had the pleasure of being served by Ce. She was amazing! So hospitable, friendly, attentive & overall a fabulous person. Jordan wasn't our server but he was also awesome, as the second he heard us ask Ce for extra tissues, he was right there with them, & it shows they have a great team that works together while having fun. The food & drinks were delicious. We had the beef tartare with fries with shaved truffles & the beef sandwich. Everything exceeded our expectations. It was our weekend away visiting Montreal & we felt the warm hospitality of the city right in this place. We are both very grateful to the staff of Buvette Nicole for making our visit a very fun & welcoming one.
Adding yet another strong review for Buvette Nicole. The meal was delicious resulting in a lively debate afterward about which of the five delicious items we shared was our favorite (a tie between the tuna sashimi & cheesecake - remarkable because I don't even like cheesecake - honorable mention to the beef tartare). Bravo chef & crew. Our server Jordan was a hoot; the entire front of house team was first rate - friendly, professional, efficient. A bonus to sit outside on perhaps one of the last evenings this year that will be possible.
