Knuckles Cantine & Vins ressort comme une adresse conviviale où le service est fréquemment salué pour son efficacité et sa chaleur, et où la carte mêle originalité et qualité. Les plats se distinguent par leur créativité et leur saveur, avec des coups de cœur comme les gnocchis aux épinards, le tartare inspiré d'un burger, le panzerotti au smoked meat et l'éclair au char arctique, sans oublier les desserts et les plats de pâtes présentés avec soin. La carte des vins et les cocktails, souvent applaudis, offrent des choix aventureux et des accords efficaces, et l'ambiance chaleureuse de la salle permet de passer un excellent moment, même si le bruit peut être présent lors des soirées animées. Certaines critiques soulignent un rapport qualité-prix avantageux et des portions généreuses pour le prix, tandis que d'autres évoquent des plats parfois trop salés, des portions petites ou des soucis mineurs de service. L'ambiance est cosy et éclectique, avec un décor qui rappelle un bistrot moderne, et la fréquentation peut être dense et bruyante lors des heures d'affluence. Des menus de groupe et des offres comme des specials en semaine sont appréciés pour fêter une occasion et découvrir plusieurs plats à partager. Dans l'ensemble, Knuckles Cantine & Vins est décrite comme une pépite du quartier, offrant une expérience culinaire inventive, un service attentionné et une carte de vins et de cocktails qui mérite d'être explorée.
Came here a few days ago with my girlfriend, & we ordered the Hawaiian knuckle that was essentially a panzerotti. It was really good & we were able to split it between the two of us.
We also got a nice selection of bottled wine, which was really nice, it was the first time I've ever got an entire bottle of wine at a restaurant before so it was a treat.
We ended up getting the salad that had everything bagel seeds on top with some awesome mixture salad dressing that was just a complete home run
We also got the steak fries with a side of french fries that tasted amazing
The atmosphere was really cool. The staff was extremely friendly & absolutely helpful when we had questions.
The restaurant was clean & with the winter snowy night it just made everything even better. It was like the scene out of a movie, I really enjoyed myself here & will definitely come back again. Definitely recommended that you bring your friends & family out.
Also, the prices are very formidable no complaints & they are good portions for the price you pay.
I have been to Knuckles a couple of times & the experience has been great.
I am impressed by the wine list which is packed with adventure.
Of course, the folks who work at Knuckles are professional while also knowing how to make you feel like a good friend.
I make a point of stopping in whenever I am in town.
Coup de coeur absolu chez Knuckles ❤?
Arrêt spontané pour l'apéro dans ce resto de quartier… & wow, quelle découverte ! Le panzerotti, le tartaeclair à l'omble & le Fool Me Wine nous ont complètement conquis : textures parfaites, saveurs franches, équilibre remarquable.
& que dire du service ? Rare, humain, patient, chaleureux… d'un professionnalisme incroyable. Knuckles, c'est une adresse qui marque. Merci. On reviendra, c'est certain !

Always the best experience at Knuckles. Amazing food, exceptional service & a fantastic atmosphere. I also enjoy their superb wine selection. A+ all around.
Couldn't love this place more - what a gem. The food is outstanding - you can tell the team really loves what they do. Drinks & wines also fantastic. Can't wait to go back!
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!
What a great restaurant ! The food was amazing. The knuckles are just to die for. Buffalo mushrooms are inventive & super tasty. The carbonara has to be one of the best ! But the menu changes frequently so it's always fun to come back ! Their choice of wines is adequate & interesting. Service is variable. Met several different waiters. ( 5th visit ) Latest round of waiter is not amazing , they seem to NOT care whatsoever.
My husband & I chanced upon Knuckles as we were looking for a quick lunch after a work meeting we had in the area. The innovative menu sounded so intriguing, we had to give it a go. We ended staying for a much longer time than we expected because we were so incredibly WOWED by our experience. I say experience because the owner Matthew introduced & gave us amazing stories behind every dish we ordered & helped us select a delightful glass of wine to pair. The food was amazing, & he made our afternoon such a pleasurable & unforgettable one. The kale salad was outstanding & so delicious I wished we had seconds. The green gnocchi made with spinach (not potatoes) was delicious & so soft it felt like it melted in our mouths. The orange wine from Baden, Germany was light & tart with just the right amount of fruitiness. Perfect for the meal. I really wanted to try their carbonara but I think that was only available in the evening. What a pleasure to bump into this gem of a restaurant. If you like a restauranteur that plays & innovates with flavours, while still keeping the dish simple & casual, this place is for you.
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 DISAPPOINTED

Great food made with love & fresh ingredients. Good selection of wines & a fun place to go on a date or with friends. I was told some of the recipes actually come from one of the guy's grandmother. Man is would have loved two grow on those recipes! I guess I'll have to go back to Knuckles instead :)
5 stars all around! Went there multiple times in the last few years & every time I've been impressed. Delicious & tasty food, the knuckles special is so so good. Wine pairing is also top notch, let the staff go ahead with their recommendations. Fun design in an old dépanneur, the cold fridge doors have been kept, showcasing the various wines they offer. Make sure to book in advance though as this place gets booked up fast, wouldn't suggest to just show up without reservation.
This restaurant was unfortunately a disappointment. Pomme de terre truffle didn't deserve $24. Two crispy fries with truffles sliced so thin that you wouldn't taste any truffles, & none of the creme sure or the fry brought a flavor; no punch. tartare was ok. The highlight was the burgot dog. Wines were extremely disappointing & rather pricey. Beaujolais nouveau at $100 seems excessive. The service was nice & open to comments about the food & wine.
I chose this restaurant for a mini reunion/girls night out & we all loved it. The atmosphere is laid back, the staff members are nice, patient & informative. The food: some excellent, some good. We didn't expect a set menu but they were able to cater to some food restrictions & it was amazing. Thursday's glass of wine special was definitely a bonus. Price point: quite reasonable! $100 approx per person including the meal, 2 glass of wine & the tip Altho it's not a huge menu , we were very curious about the other food they offered. Definitely enticing to come back ❤️
Going into this restaurant I had high expectations & man were they exceeded. The food was out of this world & the wine was so good. Would 100% recommend.
