La Buvette du Quartier offers a memorable dining experience characterized by delicious, high-quality dishes and an impressive wine selection. Many guests praise the creative menu and the attentive, professional service provided by the staff, who are often described as welcoming and knowledgeable. While the vibrant atmosphere, stylish decor, and lively energy make it a favorite local spot for many, some patrons find the music volume quite loud, which can occasionally impact conversation. Despite varying feedback on portion sizes and wait times, the majority of visitors feel the overall quality and unique vibe make it a destination worth returning to.
Well this one is hard. We were welcome by an angel, all smiling & so kind & aware. Then we sat at the bar.. we always do for a better experience. The martini was good, the wine after, of course ( good selection btw) but the atmosphere was a disaster. Stuck a the bar watching employes chating & laughing even bumping on me on my way out of the washroom. Clients or prob friends rubbing being the bar & flirting with the staff.. I wouldn't have care really but the staff was so loud that I couldn't enjoy a conversation with my partner. The rest of the bar looked pretty annoyed too.. & waiting for service. It was only 7pm. & the place was half capacity at that time.
The food , decor & wine selection are there.
But the place shows a lack of management.
Will still recommend for wine selection, food, & the angel at the door.
I was really underwhelmed. I found the service a bit annoying, we mentioned we were sharing plates & had to request spoons to split out our food twice. They gave us a dessert to share but didn't give us a knife to cut it & when we mentioned it they told us we should have asked - I think they should have proactively offered. Service was too chatty, kept over explaining about how they had the best sommelier in Quebec & how their food was so good - read the room, we don't need to hear you complimenting yourself. We ordered several items, the focaccia, olives, brussel sprouts, rockefeller oysters, cavatelli & cod - I only enjoyed the focaccia & the brussel sprouts, the rest was not good per me, the flavors weren't well balanced, either too rich or too bland. The wine selection was good & the wine was excellent & really inexpensive with the promotions they have, so that was the highlight of the meal. I would only go back to have a glass of wine.
Beautiful ambience & excellent service. Large selection of drinks & private labelled wine. Nice presentation but the plates are not served all at the same time.

Absolutely wonderful, the ideal blend of trendy & chic, while remaining grounded & non pretentious. The wine selection is impressive, & the food is phenomenal. Creative dishes beautifully presented will make you want to try every dish. A true gem
Ambiance toujours au top, menu original avec des ingrédients recherchés & de qualité. La sélection de vins est variée & parfaite pour accompagner chaque plat. ☺? Cheers! 🍷
Buvette is a really pretty spot-loved the decor, & there was tons of parking. The menu looked great & felt fairly priced. We had oysters, pasta, & risotto-all really tasty & nicely portioned.
The service was polite but a bit distant, especially considering we were the only table there. Not bad, just not super warm. Also, for a place called Buvette, the wine-by-the-glass selection was surprisingly limited (only 2 whites & 4 reds), which felt a bit off.
Still, the food was solid & there's more on the menu I'd like to try, so I'll probably be back.
La Buvette du Quartier in Brossard is one of the best spots in the area for shared dining. While it's not a tapas restaurant, the plates are generously portioned & meant to be shared. Prices are fair-comparable to or slightly higher than similar restaurants in Montreal.
The food is delicious, the wine selection is excellent, & the staff are friendly, attentive, & efficient. The overall vibe is relaxed yet polished.
My one disappointment was the dessert. The blondie was overcooked & too sweet, lacking the balance & finish I was hoping for-so I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5.
Pro tip: Make a reservation if you're going on a weekend evening. Without one, you could be waiting up to an hour for a table.
