Une superbe soirée au bistro Garage Café. Le gérant Eric est incroyable! Il nous a très bien placé pour le match des canadiens & est vraiment super sympa. La serveuse nous a également offert un service top notch!!!! Que du bonheur. On reviendra. Merci!!!
Charmant bistro branché & très bien aménagé, situé dans un beau quartier de Verdun, tout juste à côté de la rue cool & piétonnière (pendant la belle saison) Wellington. Non seulement la cuisine est excellente mais les propriétaires sont très sympathiques & les prix sont très abordables comparés à la majorité des restaurants maintenant. J'y retournerai souvent c'est certain!
Excellent service, excellente nourriture & plusieurs choix de drinks, vins & bières. Employés polis, courtois, souriants. Décors & ambiance magnifiques. Bistro & toilettes très propres. J'adore les pizzas du Garage Café. Choix des ingrédients personnalisés sur vos pizzas. Très intéressant. Merci aux chaleureux propriétaires Mélanie & Éric
In the spirit of fair play & out of respect to the restaurants who survived Quebec's draconian lock-down measures during covid, I've decided never to smack talk a resto without looking at the big picture first. There's plenty to like about Bistro Garage: a tall frosty glass of Peroni on the hottest day of the year was just what I needed, & was served promptly by an efficient bartender. This is the type of place where locals go, & sitting at the bar it's easy to see why, The staff is friendly & seem to know many of the customers, at least on the day I was there, & good vibes where in abundance. I only wish the burger I ordered was as generous as the kind service & smiling locals. Sadly, paltry portions served on a lackluster plate seems to be the norm in "la belle province". I really don't understand it. Montreal is a place that has been re-birthed from its humble roots of hot dogs, poutines, tourtières & pâté chinois, into a centre de la gastronomie widely acknowledged for some truly stellar dining experiences. Now, clearly this is not a Michelin dining experience nor is it trying to be, but you would think .. & hope! ... there would be more pride in what's served at the le garage & other slightly bobo yet still accessible establishments like it. A small-ish burger served with a scant handful of of previously frozen shoe-string fries thrown on the plate doesn't inspire much, & certainly doesn't live up to the great decor & overall jovial ambiance of the place. Jeez, even a sprig of parsley would be an improvement over the bone dry offering that left me feeling sad & depressed & yes, hungry! I was quickly snapped out of my pit of gloom by a bagpipe group parading down Wellington & all was good in the world again. I'll be back, but next time I'll skip the burger.
An absolute gem! We sat outside, & I loved it. The Filet de saumon grillé nappé d'un yogourt grec aux herbes fraîches & concombres (grilled salmon fillet topped with Greek yogurt, fresh herbs, & cucumbers), served with vegetable pilaf rice (26 CAD), was a true delight. The salmon was perfectly grilled, & the yogurt-herb sauce was a refreshing twist. The Bruschettas (8 CAD) were a fantastic start, & the soup was simply delicious. Despite the generous portions, I couldn't have been happier trying everything. Each dish was gloriously amazing. To top it all off, I enjoyed a coffee with a piece of something sweet that was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. I also liked that they served us water, too. Bistro Garage Cafe offers not just food, but a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!
J'ai récemment visité le Bistro Garage Café & j'ai été absolument ravi par l'expérience. Les moules frites étaient délicieuses, parfaitement assaisonnées & cuites à la perfection. Pour accompagner mon repas, j'ai choisi une bière locale qui était tout simplement excellente, avec une saveur riche qui complétait à merveille les moules. Le service était également impeccable : rapide, courtois & attentif sans être envahissant. Je recommande vivement ce bistro pour un repas décontracté mais raffiné. Un vrai plaisir culinaire !"
