It was a nice place to stop at just right off the busy street but not sure I would come back. Chicken sandwich was okay & their special of the day was an interesting take on the BLT. Whatever sauce they had doused it in was delicious although quite difficult & messy to eat. That said, portions were quite small for the price point.
Great service. Lovely area & the server was knowledgeable about the wine list. She helped me choose a beautiful white. We spent the day there & never felt rushed. Highly recommend this spot & their small bites!
Très bel endroit avec une ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale.
Service exceptionnel & attentif.
La bouffe… wow! J'ai essayé le sandwich au poulet frit, vraiment délicieux.
& la bière, juste parfaite!
Maybe it was because we were just off a flight but the food here was phenomenal. As a group we shared a few'snacks'. The salmon tartare, some deviled eggs, & the pate plate. The sauce on the tartare was over the top good. The deviled eggs were simple & delicious. The pate with the mustard sauce was so yummy. All of our cocktails hit the spot too. The aperol spritz, the micheladas, & the espresso martini
Went for brunch & every item ordered was a hit. We had the devilled eggs, salmon Benedict & French toast. All things we've ordered dozens of times elsewhere but exceeded our expectations here. Only knocked off one star on service because they initially forgot our devilled eggs, though they quickly resolved the issue when we pointed it out. Highly recommended for brunch & we will be returning to try their dinner menu.
The Salmon tartare here is absolutely gorgeous & delicious! Highly recommend. Nice service, tasty beer! I had the bière de coupage (spontaneous fermentation) & very much enjoyed it
I live the location & the atmosphere, but the food size was kind of a joke compared to the price! The Caesar salad had a few lettuce pieces! Staff wasn't nice but the fruity beer we tried was interesting.

I recently had a great time here at Reservoir. It was my first time visiting for lunch & I ended up trying a flight of four different beers as well as ordering the chicken sandwich. The beers were pretty good, I liked the blonde lager the most.
As far as the chicken sandwich goes, I believe this is hands down one of the greatest chicken sandwiches I've EVER had. Highly recommend getting this sandwich if you ever stop by for lunch or dinner, definitely a must if visiting.
The staff was very friendly, I was being helped out by Fred & Ales at the bar. Ales was very helpful when answering questions I had about the menu & specific recommendations &/or translations from the french terminology on the menu.
All in all, it was a great experience & I will definitely be back on my next trip to Montreal!
Good selection of drafts here. Camerise fruit beer was the most interesting of the flight. Light, fruity, & easy-drinking. Went well with their chicken sandwich, which was snack-sized but full-priced.
La nourriture est bonne mais les quantités sont assez petites. Ils auraient pu peut être rajouter des patates en accompagnement ? Ca ne coûte pas si chère & ça fidéliserait les clients ...
