De nombreux visiteurs le considèrent comme un lieu idéal pour le brunch, les rendez-vous romantiques ou les soirées décontractées, soulignant souvent la qualité des cocktails créatifs, des huîtres fraîches et des assiettes à partager savoureuses. Bien que la majorité des clients louent un service amical et attentionné, les expériences peuvent varier pendant les heures de pointe lorsque l'endroit devient bruyant et très fréquenté.

Dans l'ensemble, cet établissement demeure une adresse incontournable à Montréal pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience unique, animée et esthétiquement mémorable.
Cute bar! Came for drinks & oysters. Nice atmosphere inside but the tables are quite close, we were 2 people in a really awkward little table that felt like it was in the way, which slightly ruined the ambiance. (3 stars for this reason)
We tried the lieux vins commun riesling which was delicious !
We had the saumon tartare & it was good (lacking a bit of flavour) however it was served with 4 mini chips, would have been nice if if had a few more to enjoy the dish.
Oysters were yummy, we were accidentally served 1 less than ordered & the staff was nice to go & it get with an extra!
I did find it took a while to be able to order a drink when we first sat down, & to get the 2 glasses of wine as well, but the waitress was friendly.
I wouldn't be running back here for drinks or food.
Darling is a nice place to bring friends together. Service was good, water was always filled & icy cold. The food was okay. I wouldn't recommend the pasta it was cold & not much flavour. The burger & tartare were tasty, as were the brussel sprouts & focaccia. Drinks were okay too. The best part of our night was our waitress, MZ, she was a blast & very professional.

La bouffe & les drinks sont excellents. Décor & ambiance 👌
Les tables près de la fenêtre & de la porte à -20 c'est pas terrible, c'est toujours plein donc la porte ouvre souvent ! Arrivez tôt ou habillez vous chaudement
L'ambiance est super cool! La bouffe est bonne & les drinks aussi. Je recommande de faire une réservation comme il y avait un peu d'attente à l'accueil. J'y retournerais, surtout pour l'ambiance cozy mais festive!
My favourite place to bring people when they visit me in MTL. I don't know wth they put in their ranch sauce but its so good, & im not even a ranch person 😭 I legit book the place for every dinner/event I have to plan for. The drink & food menus are rotated frequently so you always get new stuff. Obsessed with their popcorn chicken & the honey foccacia.
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. 🥂
Cozy, aesthetic bar which is now decorated for the holidays. We had to wait for about 30 mins outside on a friday night. But once we were, inside our server was quick with our food & drinks.
So I go here to celebrate my friends birthday. There is about 8 of us. We started off the night with our waitress getting upset about what table we were sitting at. Then my friend asked politely asked'is the kitchen closed'? The waitress then replied with'yes, the kitchen is as closed as can be', not only did she raise her voice but she also said it in a very judging tone. She said'the kitchen is very very closed there is no chance'. While saying this she was giving us attitude the whole time. The food & drinks were great, the service was sassy & rude.
Great spot in Montreal for coffee, brunch during the day, & drinks dinner in the evening. Very vibey, great for all occasions, dates, solo drinks & bites at the bar…
