Deville Diner is one of my favorite restaurants in Montréal. It's my go-to spot whenever I'm downtown, when friends are visiting, or when someone asks me for a restaurant recommendation.
Not only is the food consistently delicious, but the presentation is spectacular, the staff are incredibly kind & professional, & the décor/atmosphere/music are always fun & energetic. The cocktails, the main courses, the giant salads, & the desserts (omg New Orleans beignets!!) are all fantastic. Honestly, I've never had a bad meal there. Highly recommend!
TL; DR, Awesome food with an upbeat vibe right in downtown Montreal.
Came with my wife & toddler (daughter) on a Saturday night while we were in town for the weekend… extremely appreciative they welcomed us without a reservation including my daughter.
Server was super friendly & told us there is an off-menu kids meal so my daughter had spaghetti. Tuna tacos were good (but kind of hard to eat), Gouda cheese balls were awesome (who doesn't love fried cheese), but the real star of the show was the perfectly cooked branzino. Drinks were also very good with a hearty pour of alcohol unlike what you sometimes get in Canada… I had a few Smoky Flower mezcal cocktails.
Whole meal was $300+ CAD but well worth it IMHO & cheaper than many less good meals I've had recently.
Delicious food, efficient & helpful & friendly service, great decor & ambience. I especially appreciated the cocktail recommendation of of the Chateau Marmont from our server Marianna 😀

Deville has been my favourite restaurant in Montreal for the longest. I've been going there for several years (since way back when they had that jalapeno cornbread skillet entrée). I've had breakfast & dinner here many times over. Great food, great cocktails, great service.
Update: I recently returned here & Noémie (hostess) & Adam (waiter) were both awesome. Noémie brings a great welcoming vibe that makes you feel good about just entering the restaurant & makes you want to talk to her after you're done (which I did) & Adam was not only helpful with the menu but he also helped us pick our next spot to hangout for the evening & had great conversation for days. It's for good reason that I've come to expect the great food & service that I get everything I eat here.
Arrived late in Montreal & needed somewhere to eat close to our hotel. Deville was one of the few places open at that time & we were pleasantly surprised with how amazing it was. We expected it to be a greasy spoon but when we walked in the vibe was closer to a modern cocktail bar crossed with an old school dinner. The drinks we amazing & food was exceptional.
Woooooooow excellent 10/10 j'ai dîné super délicieux ce soir🥰, une délicieuse salade & un poulet a la brasa qui était presque délicieux🥹💕, ce soir j'ai découvert un délicieux cocktail #PRETTYINPINK 🙃💕
Sam on the mezzanine Saturday night was amazing ! Beautiful smile, super polite & attentive, even after I miscalculated his tip & gave him less then he deserved, he kept smiling & wish us a great night. Food & cocktail were awesome. We will be back to make the gratuity right ! Sorry Sam xx you were the best !!
J'ai beaucoup aimé l'ambiance du lieu : c'est vivant, agréable & le décor a un côté rétro-moderne très réussi. Le service était sympathique & rapide. Les plats étaient bons, bien présentés & savoureux, mais honnêtement, le rapport qualité-prix n'est pas tout à fait au niveau.
En revanche, les cocktails sont excellents. On sent qu'ils y mettent du savoir-faire : les recettes sont originales, bien équilibrées & très bien servies. Si vous aimez les bons cocktails, ça vaut clairement le détour juste pour ça.
En résumé, c'est une belle adresse pour prendre un verre & profiter de l'ambiance, mais peut-être pas le meilleur choix si vous venez surtout pour bien manger sans trop dépenser.
