Review Summary

La Bêtise welcomes guests with a warm, cozy atmosphere that many reviews describe as inviting and vibrant. The food gets frequent praise, from fresh oysters and tapas-style bites to well-executed mains and standout seafood. Service is consistently noted as friendly, attentive, and helpful, with a good wine and cocktail selection to complement the meals. Some comments mention a higher price point or occasional slower service, but portions and overall quality are repeatedly highlighted as strong points. The venue's charm, whether on the terrace or inside, makes it a popular spot for gatherings or a romantic evening, and visitors often say they would return.

Wow. Every dish was exquisite. The service was fabulous. We sampled many dishes & everyone agreed this was some of the best food we've ever eaten. The fresh oysters were perfect. The tuna tataki, beef tartare, crab bites, calamari, lamb chops - we all agreed it was the best we've ever had. We all agreed to think of any excuse to go back :) we left full (but not feeling stuffed) & happy :) the prices are varied & reasonable. Even the salad was so yummy! Lots of drinks - the sangria looked pretty fantastic lol nice ambiance, lively but not too much, you can dress up or be casual.

As usual La Bétise exceeded expectations. Amazing oysters at 1$, fall off the bone ribs(definitely a must have!), perfectly seared tuna, buttery lobster & scallops, balanced & tasty drinks...I will keep coming back. So happy for this restaurant especially in verdun!!! The wait staff are attentive & knowledgeable the music & ambiance makes you feel at home. This restaurant is honestly a gem. You gotta eat there.

We came for the $1 oysters & the fabulous cocktails! We were not disappointed. I had been here myself a couple times before & decided to bring some new peeps this time 'round. They were pleased with the food, the service (Dany our waiter, was great!), the drinks & the overall ambiance of the place. I definitely recommend La Betise - Verdun if you're looking for a cozy, relaxed vibe with amazing cocktails & great food (The fried Calamaris, the Edemames their Tuna & Beef Tataki & the Crab bites are my top choices) *On a side note, I tend to book a reservation for when they open up as it does get quite busy later on. Do take it into account if you go in after 7pm as there will be some delays getting the drinks out (they are worth the wait but all hand-shaken at the time of order, all is super fresh & nothing is pre-mixed). Hope you enjoy it as much as we did ;-)

Great ambiance for drinks or partying with friends.
However, very loud if you are looking to have a conversation over dinner.
