Les avis décrivent Le Darling comme un bar et restaurant branché et éclectique, avec une ambiance animée, des cocktails solides et une carte variée comprenant fruits de mer, tartare, burgers et plats à partager, le tout soutenu par un service chaleureux et attentif dans certains cas, mais d'autres visites signalent aussi de longues attentes, une atmosphère bruyante et des prix élevés par rapport aux portions; le brunch et la terrasse sont souvent salués, tout comme le décor charmant et photogénique qui reflète bien l'esprit de Montréal.
The best place to have a nice meal, fancy coffee or matcha & even a drink alcoholic & non alcoholic, beautiful & funky decor with really nice service. A must visit while in Montreal

Their brunch is delicious. Tasty, with nice little details, like the perfect salad dressing & potato spices. Beautiful decor, servers & customers, all with that sweet bird of youth, & lovely accents still apparent.
I took my boyfriend here for his birthday & I'm so glad I did. I chose this spot because it had a unique vintage, artsy bar-restaurant vibe - & it absolutely delivered.
The beef tartare was his favorite dish of the night
The steaks were cooked perfectly, rich & flavorful.
The burrata was fresh, creamy,& balanced beautifully with the rest of the plate.
& the drinks? Strong, smooth, & dangerously good.
Overall, the experience felt special, intimate, & thoughtfully curated - from the atmosphere to the food. Definitely a place I'd come back to for another celebration or a romantic night out. 🥂

This is my favourite bar in Montreal. I've dropped by in varying capacities over the past 8 years (recently on a solo wedding trip) & the staff/ambience are consistently en pointe. Toronto feels like a city of cliques (King W. attracts the usual froufrou crowd, Ossington similarly, etc.), but every charming spot in Montreal has a wonderful blend of everyone: artists, students, 30-somethings, dates, solo diners reading books, parents… it's heartwarming & makes you feel right at home, & one of the reasons I still want to move here. I could look at this space for a long time - lovely plants adorning the entrance, beautiful warm-neon lit carousel centrepiece bar, fun vintage paintings around the emerald wallpapered dining area.
Thanks for always being so welcoming. Stoked to come back soon to check out a Habs game + the patio!
I was looking for a place for lunch & stumbled upon this restaurant. It was decorated beautifully with a bright & energetic vibe. Keep in mind if dining with children you will be seated outdoors. The food & service was top notch. We have the Hallomi sandwich & the Darking Club. Both were incredible. The Darling club we had gotten the combo which came with the cantaloupe salad that was to die for! Very good value for your money with top notch service & food. Highly recommend!
A true taste of Quebec; such a great experience. Beautiful patio. Inside is the true gem, such a cool funky space! Food was perfect & service was amazing.
I visited this bar today & had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the service was absolutely outstanding staff were incredibly welcoming, always smiling, & attentive with water refills right on time. The ambiance is fabulous, & the interior is beautifully designed, creating a really enjoyable atmosphere to hang out in.
However, the drinks & food were a bit disappointing. I tried Le Jardinier & Melon Electric, & both were far too sweet & lacked the strength you'd expect from a proper cocktail. As for the food, the smash burger & chicken wings were just mediocre not much flavor or anything memorable.

We had a wonderful experience at Le Bar Darling for our anniversary, & Tony made it even more special. He kindly helped us take some beautiful photos to capture the moment. He was professional, friendly, & incredibly helpful. Thank you, Tony, for going the extra mile!
I did not expect this bar to be as spacious & beautiful as it was. & I didn't expect it to be so reasonably priced after I saw how extravagant the decor looked like. So in conclusion, it's my new favorite bar right now! (Got the Babyback Ribs & fries. Great taste & fast service.)
If you're looking for a restaurant with charming old-world decor & a cozy atmosphere, this place is a must-visit. The interior design perfectly balances rustic elegance with a touch of nostalgia, creating a warm & inviting setting for any occasion. The highlight of my meal was the smoked salmon, which was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. It's clear they put care into both the quality of the ingredients & the preparation. The staff was equally impressive-attentive, friendly, & professional without being intrusive. They contributed to the overall pleasant experience & made me feel genuinely welcome. Overall, this restaurant offers a delightful combination of excellent food, great service, & a unique ambiance. I'll definitely be returning!

One of my favorite places for any occasion. Whether I want to catch up with an old friend, go on a dinner date or before a night out with friends, this place is gem. Beautifully decorated with immaculate vibes & fair prices. Definitly try their foccacia!
My partner & I stumbled here late one Saturday night. The atmosphere was very warm & welcoming, we sat at the bar & had a great time. The bar tenders had great spirits, the drinks were good, they had late night snackies but we didn't have any this time. The lighting is beautiful & romantic. We loved it there & would be happy to return for a meal!
Excellent selection of beer & cocktails in a beautiful atmosphere! Generally, it's a bit too trendy for my tastes & I wouldn't bother waiting with the crowd who frequently lines up to get in, but the summer patio out front is nice.
