Vraiment belle ambiance, mais j'ai pris les carbonara & le plat était vraiment ok. Les portions sont petite puis pour 29$ le plat de pâte, j'ai été déçues. Par contre, ils ont une belle variété de vins.
Our evening at Knuckles was perfect from start to finish. The atmosphere is homey & relaxed thanks to the exceptional staff. The wine list is fantastic as are the cocktails. We had the scallops, beef tartare & the carbonara & gnocchi - each dish was sublime. Knuckles is a hidden gem in a great neighbourhood!
Très bon restaurant, menu très simple, original, pas de carte à rallonge. Les plats peuvent être partagés & excellents. Très bons desserts. Certaines portions un peu petites. Belle ambiance & très bon service. Je recommande !
I've tried numerous restaurants in Montreal- ranging from fine to casual dining, & this restaurant by far beats most, if not, all restaurants I've tried in Montreal. Everything we ordered including drinks (non-alcoholic) were a hit. We ordered the knuckles, deviled poppers, gnocchi, buffalo dip, & Schnitzel. The buffalo dip- mushroom tossed in buffalo sauce with a blue cheese dip was a pleasant surprise as I typically don't like buffalo sauce. Everything is made delicious & is well-balanced with different flavor profiles & textures. The ambiance was also nice- cozy & quaint spot, nice for a date night. I'll definitely be returning.
Si je pouvais mettre 4.5 au lieu de 4, je le ferais. Excellent service & très bonne ambiance. La nourriture était bonne. Je suis contente d'avoir essayé mais je ne pense pas que j'y retournerais (c'est à l'opposé de la ville pour moi & ce n'est pas assez wow) Je recommande de l'essayer au moins une fois pour se faire un avis, j'ai passé une excellente soirée

Nous étions un groupe de 10 personnes pour un souper de Noël, & l'endroit était parfait! Service 10/10, & super bon menu de groupe. Beaucoup de nourriture & bon prix, à refaire certainement.
Superbe soirée où on a bien mangé & bien bu! Le menu tout en simplicité, exécuté avec adresse nous a délecté. La formule all you can eat cacio e peppe est à conserver! Les pâtes de chez Etna y sont magnifiquement mis en valeur. Un coup de chapeau au service impeccable & chaleureux! Nous reviendrons :)
You must check out this restaurant if your in Montreal! It's fantastic! We ordered the Kale Salad, Bic Mac Tartare, which were delicious, but star dish went to the Spinach gnocchi, it was unreal...probably one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had! The service was ok, the staff only spoke to us in French which was a bit annoying.... but the owner passed by & was super nice & explained the dishes & spoke in English, French & Italian. Great great place to eat some delicious food with a nice vibe cute & cozy!
