I had high expectations for the French onion soup, but it was unfortunately a huge disappointment.

The soup arrived gratinated on the top, but the broth in the center was barely warm-giving the distinct impression it was microwaved & then rushed under a broiler. Instead of a smooth, melted layer of cheese over a toasted crouton, there was a giant, half-melted slab that seized up into a rubbery block. I literally had to use a steak knife just to cut through it.

I usually love a lot of cheese, but the execution here was completely off. The temperature & texture ruined what should be a classic comfort dish. Hope the kitchen can refine their line prep & get the temp & cheese layering right.

Service was good though & the ambiance on the terrace is really nice.

Le Café Cherrier est une institution traditionnelle de Montréal, où l'on se sent toujours bien accueilli. Le propriétaire, Jacques, est souvent présent & veille à ce que tout soit parfait. L'équipe de serveurs est exceptionnelle : attentionnée, sympathique & efficace.

Au bar, Abigail & Nicolas se démarquent par leur savoir-faire. Ils préparent les meilleurs Cosmopolitans & Negronis de la ville, avec une attention particulière aux détails & un sourire toujours au rendez-vous. Leur convivialité rend chaque visite encore plus agréable. La carte des vins est bien choisie, & on peut toujours avoir des conversations enrichissantes avec eux.🫶🏻🍹

La clientèle est majoritairement composée d'habitués, mais on croise aussi de nouveaux visages qui viennent découvrir ce lieu élégant & chaleureux.

Côté cuisine, les plats traditionnels français sont à la hauteur de leur réputation, avec une qualité & un goût constants. Mention spéciale pour la soupe à l'oignon traditionnelle, un classique parfaitement exécuté avec son fromage fondant au-dessus. 🤩

Le Café Cherrier offre une belle diversité d'espaces : des places hautes au bar, des tables pour des moments intimes ou pour des groupes. Les toilettes sont toujours impeccablement propres.

Un incontournable pour les amateurs de bonnes tables & d'une ambiance intemporelle à Montréal.

Dans mes préférés la soupe au poisson & la salade César, des menus du jour intéressants & une belle terrasse. Commentaire constructif les chaises de la terrasse pourraient être changées & être plus confortables. Le service toujours agréable!

Food was very good. Steak frites perfectly cooked, salads good, soups good. Service was definitely spotty. Extremely difficult to get attention, took 30 minutes to order, & waitstaff was relatively rude.

Toujours aussi agréable. Eté comme hiver. La soupe de poisson est parfaite, comme celle qu'on déguste face à la Méditerranée. Le service & impeccable & l'ambiance toujours chaleureuse.

Nous sommes arrêté pour un souper improvisé. Belle surprise! Tout était délicieux & le ceviche de saumon a laissé sa marque. Recommandé!
