Dans l'ensemble, Knuckles Cantine & Vins reçoit des éloges pour un menu créatif et bien équilibré, un service attentif et une ambiance chaleureuse et vivante, avec des plats remarquables tels que les panzerotti, le tartare, les gnocchis et des desserts, ainsi qu une belle carte de vins et de cocktails; la plupart des avis indiquent que l'expérience vaut le détour et donne envie de revenir, bien que certaines visites trouvent la salle bruyante et que, selon les visites, les portions puissent sembler petites pour le prix ou le menu paraisse inégal.
You feel the liveliness the moment you step into this restaurant! The deco is classy/funky/cozy at the same time.
We had the beef tartare'Big Mac' which was really interesting, I really like the crunchiness of the bun & the sauce has a good balance of acidity.
The fried bread is their famous dish but wouldn't say it was my favourite thing of the night. Gnocchi was soft & sauce is nice but I'd say the tartare was the winner of the night!
Special shoutout to the service! As we saw there were like 2-3 servers only at that night, but they were all really nice & were as attentive as they could. The girl that served us was very enthusiastic, great energy! Thank you :)
The absolute most delicious gnocchi I've ever had! & the dessert was so amazing. I'm not usually a huge fan of mousse but the combination of jam & popcorn make the dish so interesting & irresistible. Such a cute restaurant & neighborhood to visit on top of that.

J'ai adoré ce restaurant ! L'ambiance est très agréable, le décor & la lumière sont top. Le service était vraiment parfait & a rendu l'expérience encore plus plaisante. & que dire des plats ! Nous avons testés les gnocchis, les carbo & un panzerotti, les trois étaient vriament délicieux. Je reviendrai avec plaisir !
Les gnocchis sont à tomber, & les plats saisonniers sont toujours excellents! Ils peuvent facilement accommoder les végétariens. Je recommande chaudement :)
Very charming place with a creative menu. For appetisers we had the eclair with arctic char (my personal fav), beef tartare (big mac flavour), panzerotti (smoke meat). The eclair was light & paired nicely with the goat cheese & fish. The beef tartare was unique & something I never had before, but I'd still rather go for a classic tartare. & the panzerotti was overall quite underwhelming because of the lack of filling, & the sides were folded too thick & so some parts of the dough were a bit raw. We also had the spinach gnocchi which was nice & light & the cornbonara which was fun but personally not to my palette. Overall, dishes were executed as described & service was good.
My partner & I visited Montreal/Quebec City for a week & this was by far our favorite meal! I think the kimchi-rita was the best cocktail I've ever had. The server was super nice & made us feel welcome; & they happily helped us in English! We dined on Wednesday so we got their special, where we could try 5 dishes for $40 each. Would definitely recommend the buffalo mushrooms & the spinach gnocchi. The classic panzerotti was also amazing. Everything tasted like it was fresh & made with love :)
Super ambiance, super service. Les gnocchis sont tout simplement délicieux. Le steak est bon mais très salé, avec une présentation tombe un peu à plat. Le sommelier a trouvé une combinaison parfaite pour la diversité des repas que nous avions commandé.

Delicious food & a warm, aesthetic vibe! The spinach gnocchi (gnocchi verdi) was a standout, YOU MUST ORDER THIS! The gnocchi was so pillowy soft & the sauce was rich with a bit of crunch on top.
The other dishes we got were tasty too (see pics) but did not linger in my mind afterwards as the spinach pasta did. Smores & Cream dessert was good but large in quantity - I'm a lover of dessert but would recommend to share this.
Resto de quartier super sympathique, très belle ambiance! Tout ce que nous avons mangé était délicieux avec un coup de coeur pour l'entrée de Pleurotes Buffalo & les Gnocchi Verde!

Restaurant is a bit crowded, loud & hot (it was 32C outside). But the food & service were excellent. Had the Pintade with truffle & spinach gnocchi. Both top notch & sauces were excellent.
If you want to go to 2nd service, make a reservation.
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!
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!
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.
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!
