Pizza Bouquet serves classic New York style pizza in a small, no-frills spot where the crust is crisp, the dough is light, and the sauce and toppings are well balanced, with several reviewers calling it the best slice in Montreal and noting affordable prices and quick service. The vibe is casual and unfussy, with friendly staff and a steady flow of fresh slices, including standout variations like potato, sopressata and cherry bomb, though some guests mention occasional inconsistencies in doneness and slower counter service during busy times, and a wish for more sustainable plates. Overall, Pizza Bouquet comes across as a reliable go-to for authentic NY flavor, with generous portions and good value that keep people coming back.
Wonderful pizza choice & quality. Everything about this pizza is great, from the sauce to the crust & toppings. The place is rather small so takeout is recommended in busier times.
Excellente pizza style new yorkaise avec plusieurs choix véganes & plus funky; la seule chose est que vous devez appeler le matin pour avoir une pizza entière de votre choix vers le souper; sinon vous devez créer votre pizza entières avec les pointes qui sont dans la vitrine. Il fait aussi TRÈS chaud & c'est bondé de monde pour un si petit espace!

This is a place i have mixed feelings about. I have been pretty often, maybe 20-25 times over the last 2 years. On one hand, it can be one of the best slice counter in the city; but it's not saying much, giving the poor level of slices in Montréal. However, on a good day, a fresh slice is usually quite satisfying. The dough is slightly too hard & thick, & the amount of toppings is slighlty too little for that style, so each bite doesn't have the correct balance, can feel pretty dry. Still, it feels like it's made with good ingredients & some love - which is better than 90% of Mtl pizza. Cherry Bomb is a stand out for me.
Now the big problem is the service at the front counter. Service is a lost art in Montreal, & that place is no exception. Slow, nonchalant, cynical attitude, usually by someone with neglected hygiene & looking mildly depressed (last time i went, the counter person was wearing some ironic vintage cap crusted with black dirt, & not from working in the kitchen, it's concerning). Consistent with that anglo hipster-gentrified part of town, serving in french seems to be low on priorities, so if you're a francophone, expect a sort of panic reaction if you address in french. That could be forgiven easily with the right attitude, but with that careless, sloppy energy, it's off-putting.
Pies are not identified on the front counter slice tray, which means each new customer will ask which pizza is which. The clerk will answer with the most annoyed, blasé expression & voice, since they've likely been repeating the same info all day.
All in all, a good spot, but one which could be way better.
3 stars until the service attitude & hygiene gets better!
Good pizza. I'd visit again if in the area. Really enjoyed my slice. But for those of you saying it's the best NY slice in Montreal you need to go to Welldun in Verdun.

The pizza is excellent. No problem. But the fact that the restaurant goes through 300 plus paper plates & they are not recyclable is saddening. There should be reusable plates for people who eat at the restaurant. It increases the work load, but that's why we tip, & the world could use some ethically & morally upstanding businesses.
Love this place to bits. Pizza is fresh, affordable, & delicious every time. Great spot to unplug & people watch for ten minutes, would come here every day if I could
