Review Summary

Cadet offers a highly regarded dining experience in Montreal, centered around a creative, shareable tapas-style menu that features sophisticated, well-executed French-inspired cuisine. Many diners praise the flavorful and thoughtful dishes, particularly the black cod, focaccia, and various vegetable preparations, noting that the restaurant maintains consistent quality and a vibrant, modern atmosphere. While the service is frequently described as warm, attentive, and professional, some visitors have encountered inconsistencies regarding pacing, noise levels, and portion sizes. The restaurant is widely considered an excellent choice for dates, celebrations, and pre-show dinners, though guests are encouraged to plan ahead with reservations due to its popularity.

Nourriture excellente à l'exception des pâtes qui était extrêmement huileuse & prise en pain. Les cocktails étaient bien sans plus, rien de extraordinaire pour le prix demandé.

Au niveau du service, l'accueil était chaleureux. Par contre, nous n'avion toujours pas de vin au moment de servir le repas. Personne pour nous conseiller sur le choix des vins ( pas de sommelier). Bref le service & l'ambiance n'était pas à la hauteur du prix payé.

Industrial feel but modern also.
Not too loud but very busy, clearly popular.
Located on a less busy road, maybe questionable ongoings outside the door but you'd never know.

Kind & thoughtful service.
Great drinks.
Delicious food - shared tapas style. Octopus, cod croquets, kebabs, risotto all delicious. Other items were ok. But worth it for the experience nonetheless.

Good choice & Michelin recommended restaurant. Service was a bit rushed but the food was good. It is well balanced menu with good vegetables options, good selection of seafood & meat options. I really liked their tartare & their fucecchio bread is must try. Overall solid option for dinner in Montreal.

Another great spot to check out in Montreal. The service was friendly & smooth from start to finish, & the food overall was solid.

It was a delicious meal with some really fun flavour combinations. You can tell they're going for something a bit more creative & experimental with their menu, which I appreciate. The black cod was definitely the highlight. It was fresh & tender. The sauce leaned sweeter than I typically go for, but the fish itself was excellent quality.

That said, it didn't quite have that wow factor that makes a meal unforgettable.

Still, it's a good spot for sharing tapas style dishes & trying something playful. Would recommend giving it a go if you're in the area.
