A huge shout out to Kirkland Resto Bar in Pierrefonds. My wife & I had enjoyed immensely the BBQ burger platter & the Kirkland chicken platter. From the pleasant & attentive serving waitress to the open air terrace with giant screen TV no less (Euro soccer) it was a great lunching experience. Amazing to say the least!! P.s Sorry everyone just too good for taking pics, you have to experience it to enjoy it.
Petit resto bar avec un peu de charme & un menu ordinaire.
On y va pour dépanner ou voir le spectacle anglo de comédie qui circule dans l'ouest de l'île.
Service sympa.
Une touche de menu Sri Lankais donne une petite différence.
Correct.
I've thought on this for about a month now & decided to rate my experience. We've gone to K Resto Bar a few times & were happy until our last visit. We went with another couple. Had very good service. But after we paid the bill, the waitress came back to our table & asked our friend if he was happy with the service. He said yes, it was great. She then asked why he tipped less than 15%. She said that the owner calculates her sales & assumes she'll get 15% so she lost money due to our friend tipping less. I couldn't believe that she came back to the table & asked for a bigger tip. They talked for about 10 minutes & then our friend added another tip for her. This seemed very unprofessional to me. The owner should pay the staff enough that they shouldn't feel the need to ask customers for a bigger tip. But if a customer does tip less than 15%, they're allowed. There's no law on tipping. My husband tipped 20%. Do we get 5% back then? It was really unprofessional & we won't be good back. As much as I enjoy the music & the service has been good.
Popular neighbourhood resto-bar with typical pub food with some Shi Lankan curry meals on the menu also. Good mix of beers. Pleasant atmosphere with large terrasse & live music in the evenings. The service was excellent.

My family & I have been going to Kirkland Resto Bar every Friday for 7 years. The food never dissapoints, the live music is always good, & the staff is very welcoming! the service is great, the food is great & i have nothing bad to say!
It's a very tiny place, food was average for a bar. I ordered chicken fingers, they were homemade but also so dry & overcooked. It said it came with two sauces. I asked for BBQ & Ranch, ranch wasn't listed an option, but they charged me & extra 2.00 for it. At least give me two BBQ's then, or tell me it's gonna be an upcharge. The fries were greasy overall, but tasted good. Had to ask for waters with the meal. Service was nice but slow, no one checks up if you need anything else, refills etc after they drop the plates. I wouldn't go back except maybe two have a drink on the patio in the summer. I wouldn't go here for a meal besides appetizers The bathroom was nice but only one, so expect to wait your turn.
November 2023: came here for drinks & apps. Mojito wasn't bad, old fashioned was perfectly strong, espresso martini had Bailey's in it (it was tasty, but definitely unusual), the whiskey sour was terrible. They ran out of the vodka for cocktails then said they would charge more for the cocktails if they used a different vodka. Aside from that service was pleasant & attentive. Bonda were tasty balls of potato curry. Beef rolls were crisp but barely had any beef in them, mostly potatoes. Fried cheese curds were perfect. August 2023: Showed up on a Monday because Google & their website said it was open but they had a sign saying they were closed Monday when we got there.
Nice little bar with a lot of regular, im used to a wider selection of beer choice but it was a very nice spot, people were nice & the ambiance very welcoming

My friend & I had breakfast here today. We were both very pleased with all aspects of the Resto Bar. The ambience is very pleasant. Food was great as was the service. I would definitely recommend the resto.
