Cadet propose une expérience culinaire très appréciée à Montréal, axée sur un menu créatif de type tapas à partager qui met en valeur une cuisine d'inspiration française raffinée et bien exécutée. De nombreux convives louent la qualité et la finesse des plats, notamment la morue charbonnière, la focaccia et les diverses préparations de légumes, tout en soulignant une constance dans la qualité et une atmosphère moderne et dynamique. Bien que le service soit souvent décrit comme chaleureux, attentionné et professionnel, certains visiteurs ont noté des irrégularités concernant le rythme du repas, le niveau sonore ou la taille des portions. L'établissement est largement considéré comme un excellent choix pour les sorties en amoureux, les célébrations ou les dîners avant un spectacle, bien qu'il soit fortement conseillé de réserver à l'avance en raison de sa popularité.
Simply delicious- we ordered a variety of plates & shared them with 4 people, & definitely enjoyed it very much. Zucchinis super, beetroots superb, potatoes yummy, & last but not least chicken wings, dream of a dream, really recommend them. Plus some calamaris, which were excellent. Service was very attentive & nice, the atmosphere is fine & if you want to plan to go there, you should definitely do reservations. Plan ahead !!! Pricing for 4 people no alcohol around 185 Canadian $
Had a fun night at Cadet. We were a group of six, which is perfect here since the whole concept is built around sharing plates.
We started with a couple orders of the focaccia with cheddar & spicy oil (a must), then moved on to the broccoli spätzle with labneh & pistachios, the butternut squash with sheep feta, balsamic vinaigrette & pecans, the cod croquettes with spicy mayo, & the shrimp skewers with satay, Brussels sprouts, & ginger.
For mains, we shared a couple of orders of the flank steak with burnt chili salsa, Szechuan pepper sauce, & pickled peppers, along with the chicken wings with jerk sauce, caramelized onion chutney, & scallions, & the zucchini with chicken skin, hot honey, & pickled lemon.
Everything was delicious including the wine. Great service & energy in the room. All in all a really good night.

Our third visit in as many years. Absolutely superb small plates in a hip setting. Service is flawless. Everyone works together as a team, it's amazing to watch & lovely to experience :)
Conveniently located next to Place des Arts, this tapas-style restaurant is perfect before a show. Delicious small plates & great cocktails, the cod was our favorite! Friendly, efficient service made sure we got to our show on time.
Solo trip to Montreal. Want to try a nice restaurant. The name Cadet comes up when I googled Michelin recommended restaurants.
Not far from my hotel. & it accepts reservations. I booked 8 pm. I usually eat at 6:30 pm but you never know if there would be any flight or train delay on arrival.
Party of 1. Checked & confirmed & reconfirmed by text message.
I walked in at 7 pm. Sorry we are fully booked. She turned around & checked the bar. It's not even half full but she goes by the book. Not bending any rules not doing me any favour. Great greeter!
& I left & looked at their website. Text based website in this generative AI world talking about agentic AI. The restaurant is still using old school website
Apparently their menu is not kept up to date. To prove it to all the google masters, I ordered the zucchini dish.
& also took a picture
The dish is very very delicious. Lots of flavours. Fortunately I am the only person having that dish that night. I wish I could lick the purée off the plate. I was thinking of a spoon full sushi rice to finish it all
I also ordered the Deep fried sea bass. Excuse moi. ne parle pas francais. Don't come with a plate next to me & asked me if I want you to debone it for me.
I would do it differently. I would debone the meat & put it back & let customers enjoy.
Good to know the chef had some lots of work before putting it into the fryer
Removed the scales, trimmed the fins & even took the bones out from the fish tummy. It is very well done. Someone don't eat fish a lot might not think of these. The chef did a lot to prepare.
The fish & the sauce is so tasty but the bottom of the dish is raw cabbage chopped up. It was kinda disappointing. The cabbage averages down the great taste of fish & the sauce.
I would highly recommend you go before the owner wants to be on fine dining experience market.
It's a family restaurant for sure. Expect you would hear whining kids or laugh out loud people dinning with you.
Service is neither good nor bad
I am so torn to give you 4 stars. But it is what is it.
Nice restaurant downtown & we sat at the high table for 6 which was comfy. The food was a bit spicy which I was not expecting & very little portions. Not very many kid friendly plates due to the spice level.
Essentially a'build your own' tasting menu that features an impressive rotation of small plates perfect for sharing between guests. Do not come if you're not a sharer! Although there are individual-sized plates, ordering such takes the fun concept out of this awesome restaurant!
