Review Summary

Cadet offers a highly regarded dining experience in Montreal, characterized by its creative, tapas-style menu that features well-executed dishes with global inspirations and balanced flavors. Many diners praise the quality of the food, particularly the black cod and focaccia, noting the innovative and seasonal approach to ingredients. While the ambiance is generally described as lively, stylish, and perfect for dates or sharing with groups, some visitors have noted that the space can become quite loud. Service quality is often highlighted as professional, friendly, and attentive, though there are inconsistent reports regarding speed and responsiveness, and some guests find the portion sizes small relative to the price.

I cannot believe how amazing this place was. Everything I ordered was perfect. I had the beef tartare, asparagus, chocolate tart, & a non-alcoholic gin drink. My server was Axel & he was so kind & gave great recommendations! I cannot recommend enough!!

Très bon repas dans ce restaurant, la cuisine est bien maîtrisé, je recommande, le prix reste cher , la salle est bruyante. Il est possible de se stationner mais payant seulement. Le restaurant est à côté du métro St Laurent.

Cadet is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Montreal. It's the kind of place that keeps you coming back because every meal feels exciting, thoughtful, & effortlessly delicious.

The atmosphere is cozy, vibrant, & intimate, making it perfect for a date night or an evening with friends. The staff are incredibly welcoming & knowledgeable, always offering great recommendations & making the experience feel personal.

The sharing plates are creative, beautifully presented, & packed with flavor. Every dish showcases seasonal ingredients & a level of craftsmanship that makes each bite memorable. It's the perfect place to explore new flavors while enjoying a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere.

Cadet has mastered the balance between exceptional food, outstanding service, & a fun dining experience. It's one of those rare restaurants that consistently exceeds expectations, & I recommend it to anyone looking for one of the best dining experiences Montreal has to offer. Thank you

Everything was perfect. We will talk about the cod for years as one of the best things we've eaten. Sat at the bar & it was a great experience. Service was exquisite. We had high expectations & Cadet well exceeded them.

Food was spectacular. The place looked wonderful. Our server was however extremely rude & looked annoyed to serve us. Rolled his eyes at us when we asked for straws & more water, after ignoring our request & us asking multiple times
