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.

Nous étions un groupe de 14-15 & avons été accueillis à la merveille. J'ai oublié le nom de notre serveuse, mais elle s'est assurée que tout soit parfait.

Une de nos meilleurs expériences au Canada, & même ailleurs. La nourriture est somptueuse, digne d'un étoilé, mais l'ambiance reste conviviale (plats à partager) avec une serveuse professionnelle mais amusante. Nous avons passé une magnifique fête d'anniversaire grâce à Le Cadet.

Overall, cadet was pretty good & the service was really nice. However, don't be surprised at the size & price of the plates. 6 pieces of gnocchi in a bit of sauce for 24$. Portions are pretty small, we had to order one more dish to the already 2 we ate + the focaccia to be sustained Dessert was bomb tho ! Recommandation are the foccacia & the bread pudding for sure. The gnocchi & the beef tartare were pretty disappointing. They do have good cocktails.

Une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle au restaurant Cadet. Nous avons commencé par le cocktail soap dedans, une petite touche sour couplé au gin. Suivis des pétoncles qui étaient succulentes, fondantes en bouche, & les calmars avec brocolis, absolument délicieux. Pour le dessert, la pavlova recommandée par Alexandre, le barman, accompagnée d'un vin mousseux Cerdon aux notes de fruits rouges, était une merveilleuse découverte. On a pris aussi deux vins blanc superbes - Guancibianca & Minérale +. Nous étions au comptoir, ce qui a rendu l'échange avec le personnel encore plus agréable. Le service était professionnel & chaleureux, avec des conseils avisés sur notre voyage au Québec. Une soirée inoubliable, nous recommandons vivement !

Excellente formule de proposer une carte de plats à partager. Le conseil est de prendre deux plats par personne, ensuite de quoi chacun picore dans les plats choisis. Les préparations sont savoureuses. Le service efficace comme il faut, sans être particulièrement chaleureux. Nous avons trouvé que l'ambiance de la salle manquait de chaleur, un côté grande cantine, nous étions entourés de tables de 10 à 20 personnes, c'est une bonne nouvelle pour les affaires du restaurant, mais bon, pour nous, on se sentait un peu perdus au milieu de tout ça.

I love love love this place. Everything is so well designed, well cooked, & well served. I would say this is the best restaurant I have tried in Montreal during our stay. I really recommend the sea bass & calamari.

Overall we really liked the food! The focaccia & calamari were super good to eat together. Ranking from favorite to least favorite: Focaccia = Calamari > Scallop > Veal cheek > Oyster mushroom
