Review Summary

Diners describe Bar Vivar as a vibrant, intimate spot that blends classic tapas with original dishes, where a tortilla and other Spanish and Basque inspired plates showcase high quality, seafood forward ingredients, and creative takes on grand classics. The wine and vermouth selection is a highlight, complemented by attentive, friendly service and a warm, cozy atmosphere that makes every visit feel special. The menu changes regularly, presented on a chalkboard, and encourages trying a range of dishes, many of which leave guests inspired and eager to return. While some find the portions small and the prices a bit high, the overall experience is widely praised as worth it, with comments about the thoughtful execution, the kitchen's adventurous spirit, and the welcoming team. The bar vibe and chef driven approach create a memorable, almost cinematic evening that has Montrealers calling it a hidden gem.

What a great surprise! The restaurant has a great cozy ambiance & the service is incredible. The dishes were phenomenal, a real work of art! I highly recommend the octopus, it was superb, really soft & flavorful. The dishes are not huge if you are really hungry you might wanna order two. Will definitely be coming back here!

Really love this restaurant. The quality of the food & service is like fine dining yet the vibe is unpretentious & inviting. It feels like a place you could go for a casual brunch, a fancy dinner, or drinks before a night out. The croquetas, tortilla, the head cheese croissant & the calamari bagel were all fantastic. The Ensaladilla Rusa was the stand out dish for me as it's pretty impressive to make a potato salad taste that good! Definitely looking forward to going back to try out the rest of the menu. Highly recommend.
