Review Summary

Café Cherrier is widely regarded as a long-standing Montreal institution, cherished by many for its classic French bistro atmosphere, consistently pleasant terrace, and reliable menu offerings like steak frites, onion soup, and brunch staples. While many patrons praise the attentive, professional service and authentic Parisian vibe, experiences remain notably mixed; some diners enjoy excellent, high-quality meals and professional interactions, while others report issues with inconsistent food preparation, occasionally inattentive service, smaller portion sizes, and excessive noise levels. Despite varying opinions on recent value and the occasional unavailability of menu items, the restaurant continues to draw loyal regulars who appreciate its charm, location, and overall experience, even if some believe it faces challenges in maintaining its historical consistency.

The food was wonderful & my server was great. But don't trust their wine recommendations. I was having the lamb & requested their recommendation on a hearty full bodied wine under $75 to complement the meal. Their sommelier recommended a St Didier-Parnac Cahors 2021. It was only $42 & I was impressed that he was recommending a wine well below my threshold. However it was very disappointing, Sour & very shallow with little dimension. Since they had opened it & it was not spoiled I did pay for it, but needed to order something else so as to not ruin my meal. I took the St Didier-Parnac home to use as a marinade. I can't help wondering if Cafe Cherrier had ordered to much of this sad wine & were trying to get rid of it whenever an opportunity presented itself.
