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.

If you truly want to experience the ambiance & excellence of French cuisine, this restaurant in Montreal is one of the city's most authentic gems. We visit Montreal a few times a year & will make sure to dine there in the future as well. The service, the dishes, the wine menu, the ambiance--everything is par excellence! Thank you so much for having us & hopefully, we will communicate in French next time! :) Ilona, Pavel, & Anton Toronto

Si ce message concerne la soirée du 31 décembre, ce fut un succès sur toute la ligne, pour les clients en tout cas & pour moi en particulier. Je vous remercie de ce retour à la tradition & vous félicite. Le personnel réduit faisait un travail extraordinaire, en particulier William qui m'a servie (il était parfait). L'idée de la paella était géniale, même si je ne pouvais en manger, à mon grand désarroi. M. Boisseau & Alex - s'il vous voyait - doivent être heureux. Remerciements & félicitations au chef & au personnel des cuisines. Murielle Arsenault

Toutes les trois avons profité au maximum de cette première rencontre familiale depuis la fin de la pandémie. Grâce à la qualité de chacun de vos services, jamais nous avons dû nous interrompe pour vous demander de corriger quoi que ce soit & d'attendre cette correction. Merci pour tout. Camille B.
