Located in Verdun, la Bêtise is the result of four friends who were wondering how to enhance food and wine pleasures. The tapas lounge-bar formula was created to offer an extraordinary evening to enthusiasts of culinary experiences: explosive tapas for all pallets, inventive main dishes, elaborate and original wine and cocktail list. You can share and explore classics that are adapted to fine cuisine in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. La Bêtise is the ideal place for a good time.

Across the reviews, La Bêtise comes across as a warm, welcoming spot where the food is consistently delicious, oysters and tapas standouts, and the drinks and cocktails are often praised. The atmosphere is described as cozy and charming with friendly, attentive staff making guests feel at home, and the terrace is singled out as a lovely feature. While some guests note value and prices on the higher side and occasional service tempo, the overall experience is described as memorable, with great tasting menus, thoughtful service, and reliable quality that invites a repeat visit and celebration.
Personnel sympathique mais nourriture & normes de service qui laissent à désirer. Les assiettes (je parle du contenant & non du contenu) arrivent froides, ce qui indique qu'elles sont entreposées à l'avance dans le frigo pour service ultérieur (d'ailleurs le contenu de l'entrée était un peu figé dans l'assiette). Preuve additionnelle de cela, les assiettes sont servies environ une minute après la commande (on a attendu pour commander le plat principal, mais encore là, dès que commandé, 1 minute plus tard on le recevait). Pas ce que l'on imagine pour un souper relax en tête-à-tête. & la nourriture est moyenne (malgré l'enthousiaste du serveur, la promesse du wow n'est pas tenue). Dommage c'était notre première visite car nous essayons toujours des nouveaux restos dans le cadre de Mtl à table, mais nous n'y retournerons pas.

Bon service & belle ambiance. Cependant, le chef ne maîtrise pas certaines cuisson. On m'a servi une pieuvre extrêmement caoutchouteuse & très difficile à mastiquer.
Great waiter. Servings were large (visited during MTL à table) & they bumped up the music while they were bringing the dessert with sparklers to my husband for his birthday. Really cool!

The service was excellent, nice atmosphere, beautiful design, the food was good, not exceptional but good & worth it. I highly recommend the Short Ribs. It was delicious. Will definitely come back.
Belle ambiance & bon service! Je suis allée pour mtl a table & malheureusement je n'ai pas aimé mon tartare de thon & le dessert. Cela manquait de saveur pour le prix que nous avons payé.
Celebrated two very special bdays last night; my father & husband. So I needed a special location for a memorable evening with great food, nice ambiance & friendly staff; & La bêtise did NOT disappoint! This was a first for my family & I & will definitely not be the last 🙌🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Belle place , service ok ... manger ok ... ce que j'ai pas aime c'est me faire enlever une assiette sans me faire demande qui n'etais pas fini ... j'ai trouve ca un peu ordinaire de ne pas demander si le plat est fini avant de le prendre .
Belle découverte, ambiance chaleureuse, choix de repas quelques peu diversifié pas trop d'item mais pour tous les gouts. Les plats ont beaucoup de gout & bien présentés & le service est très bien. Nous avons passé une belle soirée je le recommande fortement
