About

Cafeden delivers a specialized focus on authentic Vietnamese culinary traditions through a menu defined by balanced flavors and fresh ingredients. Signature offerings center on classic bowls of steaming pho featuring aromatic beef or chicken broths simmered for extensive periods to extract maximum depth. Crispy spring rolls and vibrant vermicelli salads provide textural variety, highlighting the essential interplay of fresh herbs and nuanced dressings characteristic of the region. The space maintains a functional, minimalist aesthetic that allows the bold profiles of the food to serve as the primary attraction.

This establishment prioritizes the integrity of traditional preparations, ensuring that each bowl serves as an accurate representation of foundational Vietnamese seasoning techniques and culinary standards.

First time at CAFEDEN with my boyfriend, absolutely loved it, everything was delicious, The cocktails were fantastic & the service was kind,friendly & welcoming. I'd like to say thank you to Denis, our server. He's incredibly hardworking & kind & definitely deserves credit for all the work he puts in. Unfortunately I wasn't able to catch the name of the bartender nor two employees who tended to us as well, but they were truly all fantastic. Will definitely be back.

I visited Cafeden yesterday evening. It was an amazing experience. I went for tapas & cocktails. Everything was so good & the server (young man) was a gem! I wish I would have asked for his name, I will when I go back because I sure will. Food arrived promptly, plates were taken away as soon as they noticed they were empty. Also, they would constantly make sure I was ok & ask if I wanted something else. I discovered the restaurant thanks to a promotional offer (Spectra). If someone else is going there as part of the Spectra deal, I would like to kindly & humbly suggest you tip them generously because the value & the service offered far exceeds the price you pay as part of the deal.

Had a wonderful experience this past Wednesday at Cafeden :) my boyfriend & I visited to take advantage of the awesome $35 unlimited tapas + cocktails deal running on Wednesdays & Thursdays.

We arrived around 5:45 pm & were seated right away, & ordered our first cocktail. The team is small, but everyone is incredibly warm & friendly & made sure to check in with us consistently during our time at the restaurant, even as the place got busier & busier with other guests. We never felt rushed, & each got to try all of the tapas on the menu, as well never running low on cocktails.

The mojito is a standout, but all the drinks are poured generously & really tasty. We would absolutely return to Cafeden, & I'd 100% recommend it for a girl's night, a date, or an evening out with friends ❤?

It was our first time at CAFEDEN. We came during the tapas & cocktails special. The decor was modern, dark & trendy, with a beautiful bar centre-piece. The service was absolutely top-notch, the staff were genuinely friendly & super hard-working. The tapas were good (especially the causita), but the drinks were the star of the show. We tried the passion fruit cocktail, aperol, litchi cocktail, mojito; they were all beautifully presented, delicious, & not diluted at all. We plan on visiting again & bringing more friends as it's the perfect spot for a night-out.

Un véritable bijou caché à Montréal.
Cafeden offre une combinaison unique entre la cuisine péruvienne & vietnamienne. Les saveurs sont fraîches, authentiques & parfaitement équilibrées - chaque plat est préparé avec soin & créativité.

L'ambiance est chaleureuse & moderne, idéale autant pour un repas en couple que pour une sortie entre amis. Le service est attentionné & sympathique, avec d'excellentes recommandations.

Je recommande particulièrement le ceviche péruvien, d'une fraîcheur incroyable, ainsi que les plats vietnamiens comme le ph? & les rouleaux, qui étaient délicieux.

Un mot spécial pour le bartender, vraiment talentueux : ses cocktails sont originaux, parfaitement équilibrés & apportent une touche exceptionnelle à l'expérience. Bravo ! 👏🍹

Un endroit où je reviendrai sans hésiter, car il nous fait voyager à travers deux cultures riches en saveurs, tout en gardant le charme de Montréal.
