Food itself was solid. I think their standard menu, enjoyed at a counter would be fine. Major issues, service was absurdly slow, 30 minutes to get water, over 90 minutes for food. Burger was not done to temperature, we ordered one refill of drinks, it never came until requesting twice, & beer was wrong. Delays were not only us but all tables in the section, manager was called out to apologize to adjacent table as they were late for a show. I think they may have just left. This might be tied to an expanded race weekend menu of things I would not want to order at a'diner bar' style restaurant. This may have created some chaos for the kitchen. Minimally I would avoid over any kind of event weekend.
Last minute stop before they closed Thursday 4/23. Great service & the burgers were great. Got the Black Label… mmhmm.. enjoyed the fires too! Nice vibe! Went back Saturday 4/25 for brunch… omg.. the steak & eggs Tartine was sooo good, everyone loved what they got. We came in group of 10 each time & were easily accommodated. Definitely recommend!!!

The ladies who saw us in were friendly,smiling & beautiful. Our waiter, whos name i didnt catch but do know hes from montana was excellent. He gave us recommendations, filled uo our water when needed & was very friendly & attentive. I had the wagyu sliders, hands down best burger i ever ate, & one of the best bites i ever tasted. What a spot will be back for sure
The food is great & the service is excellent, on a busy New Year's Eve we did have to wait an hour extra four our table but we were a large crowd & the manage gave us free shots & a free dessert! Burgers & short rib are great choices!
On a mangé les carbonaras brunch, un peu trop poivré. On a pris aussi le burger de cheval, très bon! Avec un pain doré a la crème brûlé qui est incroyable! Je recommande, bonnes portions, prix qui ont de lallure avec la qualité des plats.
I've been to this restaurant twice: once for drinks & once for a meal.
The ambiance is really nice, especially upstairs, & the wall paintings give it a nice touch.
We tried the Devil Burger, which was okay, & the staff were friendly & welcoming.
The music was really my style,
& I feel the value for money could be a bit better.
Been here several times before & has always been great. This particular
Monday night I guess the chef had an off night. Everyone's food was subpar except for 2 salads. Burgers & fries were cold & tasteless, the prime rib au jus came with a bland cold gravy, not the au jus that was on the menu. The waiter offered to change the fries & we took him up on it. Very surprising for this place as otherwise is usually very good.
We went to Deville Dinerbar on a Sunday night after a long drive from Ottawa, & it turned out to be an absolute surprise. The food was outstanding, full of flavor, & clearly made with care. They have an absolutely great beef program that truly stands out.
We ordered the short ribs, cheeseburger, Caesar salad, tuna tacos, & fries. Every single dish was perfect. The burger was to die for, & the ribs were some of the best I've had anywhere in Canada. The presentation, taste, & overall quality were excellent.
The restaurant itself is beautiful, vibrant, stylish, & full of energy. Another highlight was the service. When we arrived without a reservation, we asked for a booth, but the host mentioned they were all taken. One of the managers, who happened to be working at a booth at the back, overheard us & immediately offered us his own table. That thoughtful gesture made a great impression & really showed the professionalism & hospitality of the team.
Deville Dinerbar definitely earned a new loyal customer that night. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Montreal
