Knox Taverne comes across as a cozy, rustic spot with a welcoming vibe and a menu that frequently delivers inventive dishes alongside strong drinks, with Brussels sprouts and the steak frites often highlighted as standout items and rotating pastas and desserts adding new appeal. The atmosphere and hospitality are repeatedly praised, making it a popular choice for date nights, casual dinners with friends, or celebrations, while the best nights feel polished with attentive service, good wine, and well executed plates. Some visits note occasional timing issues or inconsistency in mains, and a few dishes have been described as undercooked or not up to the usual standard, but the overall sentiment remains that Knox Taverne offers a high quality experience at a reasonable price. The bar program and decor contribute to a special vibe, with many calling it a hidden gem in the neighborhood, and the kitchen is praised for using fresh seasonal produce to create memorable flavors that invite sharing and return visits.
Overall fantastic experience. The service was above & beyond & the food was incredible. Feels like we found a hidden gem in the city. I highly recommend this restaurant for a true, local experience.
Great vibe, great food. Too bad their burger is not on the menu anymore it used to be one of Montreal's very best. Other than that I'll still be coming back

Reservation strongly recommended, they are often full.
Limited, but tasty menu.
For a bar, had some minor apprehensions. Disappointed in the size of the pint glasses, felt like a small beer glass for the price. Also limited in wine by the glass options.
The jewel of PSC! Atmosphere is warm & inviting, the staff are super friendly & the food & drinks are delish. Order the chopped salad, brussel sprouts, olive oil cake & a negroni (or 3). Perfect spot for a casual night out or a cozy dinner.

Nous avons mangé le tartare de boeuf & l'assiette de pâte sange & toutes étaient excellent! Très belle ambiance avec les portes de garage ouverte! Je recommande!
