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
I got the take out of the Au Cheval burger. From the description, it sounds like it's to mimic the Au Cheval burger in Chicago......but the patties were too dry. Egg yolk was not running. Thick cut bacon were pretty good. Overall, not worth $36......
Very nice place ,
Price is a bit expensive for the food but the quality is very good. Definitely recommend for people trying to have a good experience & pay the price for it
I tried the chicken burgers & they were 10/10
recommend the chips with the pepper & feta cheese sauce
Location is good at the middle Downtown. The burger & French dessert were so amazing & good quality. The red wine & Prosecco were nice. Just the service was slow, it was not busy Friday but we waited for our waiter too long
We were two couples there with our kids. The place doesn't offer any kids menu, but you can still find something for the kids to eat, like pasta for example.... The portions are very generous that a 5 years old kid won't be able to finish half of the plate, so take this into consideration, one plate could be enough for two kids! I have tried the Burrata Heirloom Toast (I recommend it) & Au Cheval burger (fair enough).
This place bills itself as an American Diner. It's not. The food is far too good to call this a diner. No disrespect to diners: I love a good corned beef hash. The burgers on this menu are so next level, they're orbiting the earth. I had the Paris No. 7. It was served on a wholly unnecessary brioche bun. The dish was swimming in a beefy, winey sauce that... well, let me rescind what I said above. You will want the bread so you can soak up every drop. I had a house side salad which is so good, they should just force everyone to get it by dropping fries from their menu. Cocktails were also pure perfection. Totally unexpected & wholly enjoyable dinner.
