This place was recommended by many Montrealers, however I think it was over hyped. The food was decent but not enough to recommend it to others as top places in Montreal. The service was very good, no complaints here. Did the unlimited cacio e pepe, it was ok. Did not really enjoy the gravlax or the poireaux cesar. Maybe the place is just not for me. It was expensive for two people who did not enjoy(175$+)View more

We had the knuckles (a family recipe of the owner), the steak tartare burger-style & the goat cheese tarte as entrées. We loved everything, but we would particularly recommend the goat cheese dish, it was beyond delicious!
For our mains, we had the gnocchi, which were unreal & the pintade. We shared everything & were too full for dessert, although we really wanted to try the mousse au chocolat.
The portions are on the smaller side, so I would recommend ordering multiple dishes, just as the server suggested. The service was lovely & the atmosphere felt so cozy. Seriously, a 10/10 experience!View more

I brought my friend for her birthday & I have to say KNUCKLES did not disappoint. From the moment you walk in you will be greeted by an epic & awesome staff. You almost feel as if you're in the comfort of your own home that's how cozy this resto is. The food is absolutely out of this world I can't describe it because you literally have to taste it for yourself!! Their selection of wines are amazing. The desserts ARE JUST OMG !! Place was so good & the chef food was so delicious that my friend & I HAD TO GO BACK the week after for brunch. This is an ABSOLUTE GEM in the city of Montreal. I most definitely recommend it to everyone. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTEDView more

The food was absolutely phenomenal. So delicious & well presented. & concept of the concept of the restaurant is so special & unique (only ingredients from Quebec/local businesses/super fresh) The staff were fantastic & really added to the great atmosphere with a great mix of quirky & fun Italian decor. Thoroughly recommend !View more

Everything was so good! I highly recommend the fried pleurotes, it comes with an absolutely insane blue cheese sauce. The carbonara was excellent. The knuckles are a must order, it is absolutely delicious. The wines were delicious. Our waiter was attentive & friendly. The only comment I have is that the scallop dish was SO tiny. We were expecting two scallops at least for the price, but it was one, cute in small slices...View more

Pleurotes au buffalo: frieds oyster mushrooms that had a mildly crispy & chewy texture, the buffalo powder was generous & had a pretty intense & salty flavor. The bluecheese dip was not stinky at all & was almost able to balance out the buffalo. Tartaréclaire: the eclair itself was soft, not chewy or soggy from the toppings. the raw fish used was very tender & not stinky at all, it was delicious. Each element of the dish enhanced the unit as a whole. The caviar provided a smokey & salty touch, the thin croutons added crispy texture & the creamh goat cheese & dill was just perfect. Loved it. Knuckles: basically a fancy pizza pocket that had a very nice dough to filling ratio. The dough itself was essentially soft but had a mild crunch on the outside since it was fried. One thing that I would have preferred is to have pepperoni in the filling. To me, it was the missing element that could've made the dish more special. Carbonara: straight forward, ordinary dish, but they used peccorino instead of pancetta or bacon. I'd say it was almost perfect, but personally I prefer my pasta more cooked than al dente. Porchetta: slices of raw pork that were not stinky served with marinated ingredients & a salty green mayo. It was very good & honestly taste excactlt like a all dressed vietnamese banh mi, but without bread. Kale salad: this salad was a good surprise. Although it may seem simple, the blend of textures (crunchy but soft kale, crunchy potato shavings) with a simple but good dressing made it super good. It may look underwhelming but do not underestimate it. We were lucky enough to get a table for 2 last-minute by just showing up at the restaurant but I highly recommend to come here & try their small menu, of course after making a reservation. It's pretty pricey (170$/2 people/6 dishes) but I don't really have anything bad to say about the food.View more
