Les Cavistes is widely recognized as a sophisticated neighbourhood bistro that excels in offering an extensive and expertly curated wine list, particularly featuring private imports. Many patrons praise the professional, attentive, and knowledgeable service, frequently highlighting staff who act as skilled sommeliers to guide the dining experience. While the majority of guests describe the cuisine as high-quality, delicious, and well-executed, opinions on value are mixed, with some noting that prices are high relative to portion sizes. The ambiance is generally considered welcoming and perfect for various occasions, though a few visitors have expressed concerns regarding noise levels, inconsistent food preparation, and perceived lapses in service standards during busy periods or group events.

Yesterday my wife & I discovered this wonderful Bistro Restaurant on Fleury St. We were served by Danny who is a real professional. The food, the service, the atmosphere & the wine were exceptional, I had the Boudin which was amazing & my wife had a Tartare au saumon. I must say that my wife has many food allergy & that Danny patiently asked all her restrictions to verify with the chef what could be prepared for her. Thank you to the chef. We would also thank Arthur that we had met when he was preparing the terrace in the afternoon, had it not been for him we would not have gone to discover this great place. Thank you everyone & we will return.

Nous sommes globalement satisfait du restaurant les cavistes.
Même si à mon gout la carte des vins au verre pourrait être plus étoffée, le service est attentionné, les lieux sont propres & de bons gouts, le personnel qualifié & compétents & la nourriture à la hauteur de nos espérances.
On mange bien, c'est copieux, les aliments variés & de qualité.
Mention spécial à Florent ! On aime bien revoir les mêmes têtes.
Au plaisir.
Nadia, Mathieu & Fabien

Toujours délicieux. Cependant je trouve les prix un peu élevé par rapport aux portions dans les assiettes. Mon assiette un filet de truite & de la courge spaghetti. 35$ si ma mémoire est bonne. & 17$ je crois pour l'entrée de César. Ca reste de la courge & de la laitue même si on les présentes chiquement. Mais cest délicieux & le service impeccable & professionnel. Un tantinet moins dispendieux & je pourrais y aller aux deux mois au lieu de 2 fois par année.

Un endroit ou se laisser guider parmis des vins dinportation privée. Chaque serveur est un sommelier cherchant a vous diriger vers un vin qui vous comblera. Ecoutez les, laissez les vous guider, vous ne serez pas decu. Nous avons commandé un champagne rosé, lexplication de la couleur nous a tenu en haleine durant 10 minutes, nous ignorions la reelle provenance de cette couleur rubis., merci Arnaud
