The food here was absolutely delicious & the service was great. I loved the vibe of restaurant. The only thing is that I made a reservation for 9:30pm & when I arrived on time they said that the kitchen closes at 9:45. I was surprised when they said this because why offer reservations at 9:30 & then expect the customer to scramble last minute to order food in time. Also would not recommend sitting outside due to small bugs that kept landing on the table.
June Buvette has quickly cemented itself as one of the best neighborhood wine bars on Rue Centre.
The Owners:
Opened in the summer of 2023 in the space formerly occupied by Masala Cuisine, the restaurant was originally founded & continues to be owned by a powerhouse collaboration. The visionaries behind the establishment are Thomas Engasser & Kevyn Houpert (owners of the popular spot La Traversée) alongside Thomas Vernis & Patrick Marion of the nightlife-focused Tomahawk Group. Under their continuous leadership, the kitchen has thrived with the incredibly talented Chef Colin Lavallée steering the culinary program.
The Specialty:
They specialize in an eclectic, seasonal menu filled with'cheeky' but seriously cheffy small plates designed for sharing. While the food rotates with harvest cycles, they are widely celebrated for a menu that leans elegantly into exquisite seafood, decadent pastas, & elevated casual bites-think scallop pogos, fried halibut sandwiches on potato buns, & incredibly creamy burrata with warm focaccia. Their other major specialty is an expertly curated beverage program focusing heavily on'glou-glou' funky natural, organic, & biodynamic wines.
What People Are Saying:
Patrons absolutely love the atmosphere. Reviewers frequently highlight the dual-energy design by MRDK, noting that the front room is bright, stylish, & lively (often hosting excellent live jazz nights), while the back room transitions into warmer, quieter cottage vibes. Locals & foodies alike rave about the youthful, exuberant energy of the front-of-house staff & appreciate that they can drop in for casual drinks or commit to an amazing multi-course tasting experience without a drop of pretension.
Whether you're sitting at the bar to chat with the kitchen brigade or enjoying the summer terrasse, it's a neighborhood staple that delivers big on flavor & character.
Beautiful & cozy restaurant. Amiable service but slightly slow (it's Valentine's Day, busy). Vibe was comforting due to the coziness of the place. Delicious food (fried calamari tossed in delicious sauce, duck breast with red wine sauce, beets, & figs, rigatoni à la vodka & with decadent pain perdu in the end) & beautiful presentation, with perfect pairing with our Pinot noir from Germany. Perfect place for a date night.
They have an excellent wine list. Our waitress was fabulous & friendly, knowledgeable. The atmosphere itself it definitely my vibe but if you're the person sitting on the stool. Good luck! They are incredibly uncomfortable.
The food was incredibly sub par. We both loved the burrata & I'd go back for just that & a glass of wine. The tagliatelle was bland, cold & the mushrooms were under cooked & flavorless. The fish. Their branzino was way overcooked, very fishy & the flavour combination of the dish was completely off. There was a sweet puree, spinach & the flavorless mushrooms from our tagliatelle. My friend & I split the bill & I paid over 100$ I was so sad! Also the portions are sharing sized. So quite small.
We had such a great time at dinner! Everything was really well organized, & the atmosphere was so nice. The food was delicious, & every dish looked amazing. The staff were super friendly & made us feel really welcome. Overall, it was a wonderful evening with great food, great service, & a really good vibe.

Amazing experience at June Buvette! We were warmly welcomed by Félix, who provided excellent service. The food was fresh, creative, & absolutely delicious. I was blown away by their unique wines & cocktails-flavors I've never had before. The vibe is super chill & inviting. This place is a true Montreal gem. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend! 🌟
Went here for my friend's engagement party yesterday & honestly I'm still blown away. Everything was on point but what really made it special & the reason for my review was the people. The staff were INCREDIBLE. Truly warm, attentive & just genuinely good vibes all around. Khaled deserves a special shoutout for going above & beyond, he's literally the best. Also, the owner was SO welcoming you could tell they really care. Five stars don't even begin to cover it. If you're thinking of booking an event or just want an unforgettable night out this is your sign!!
Really cute & trendy spot with a modern country x wine bar vibe. Really nice layout & not too loud. Our server gave us great recommendations for wines & was very friendly. The food was fine, but quite pricey for the size. Would recommend going for drinks & small bites.
