Reviews describe Le Darling as a stylish, eclectic bar and restaurant with a lively atmosphere, strong cocktails, and a diverse menu that includes oysters, tartare, burgers, and shareable plates, complemented by generally friendly and attentive service, though some visits note long waits and a loud environment, and prices that feel steep for the portions; the brunch and terrace are highlighted by many, along with a vibrant Montreal vibe and a charming, photogenic decor.
Highly Recommend!! Everything about this place is charming!! Sit at the bar, lean back ;) try it, grab a book, a beer, a coffee, or a smoothie, & enjoy friendly service too!! We just stopped in for drinks, but the food looked great as well & we loved the atmosphere!

La comida y cocktail muy buenos, es para recomendarlo. Lo único que se demoran mucho en atender y la experiencia de nosotros pedimos otros tragos y dos vez es se le olvidó. Si el servicio fuera mejor el bar sería 5 estrellas.
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!
I've been going to bar darling since 2020, i love everything about the place, food is amazing & the stuff & nice & friendly. My only problem is the space? It's soo tiny inside, tables are very next to each other, tiny tables with crowded place & not enough space it really stressing last time i went to the bar I couldn't wait to finish my food & leave because it was very uncomfortable & I indeed once broke a wine bottle because of how tight & crowded the blace is & how tiny the tables are they can barley fit everything...

The cozy antique-esque atmosphere is great. My friends & I arrived just before 11pm & the kitchen was closing but we were able to order a matcha dessert, which was delicious. I had a Moscow mule to drink, & did not like it. It did not come in a chilled copper mug & flavour did not taste like a typical Moscow mule. Overall, I really liked the vibe of le darling. The service was very average. Not the best bar along Saint Laurent but would be open to trying again if my friends want to go.
It's a fun bar with an eclectic decor. Good wine selection & cocktail. Food is served tapas style & reasonably priced. It's one of the few place big enough to accommodate a group but that said, it's popular & they don't take reservation.
Love this restaurant bar soo much. Eclectic, cool, unique....great drinks & good food. Really friends service...no wonder they have opened "sister" restaurants on the street. Really well done!

Lively atmosphere & tasty food & drinks, everything prepared with love & attention. We were welcomed & made to feel like VIPs by Kip & Marie-Michelle -- two very awesome bartenders/people, but in fact everyone we interacted with on staff were simply aces. A kind of place I wish I had in my home town!
