Restaurant Beba

Quite easily the best meal I had during my stay in Montreal! Restaurant Beba was ranked the 7th best restaurant in Canada & the 50th best in North America in 2025 & for good reason. The service throughout the entire night was phenomenal-every worker was so friendly & knowledgeable about each dish. In a way, dining at Beba felt like eating in someone's home with the way we were treated so kindly & enthusiastically. Definitely make a reservation as the interior is very small; we had a lovely time at the bar.
Their menu is incredibly inventive, mainly taking inspiration from the Italian & Spanish culinary traditions established in Argentina. Most of their dishes rotate depending on seasonal ingredients, but they always have their signature starters. They recommended trying four to five dishes for two, which was the perfect amount of food. We started with a duck special for an appetizer. The slices of meat were insanely tender & went so well over the fresh cabbage & dressing. Next, we had the beef tongue, which they were able to slightly alter to accommodate for my tree nut allergy. Once again, the meat was so juicy & flavorful. We really enjoyed the blood sausage & rapini it came with as well. The brown butter sauce reminded us of movie theater popcorn in the best possible way. Our third dish was the pappardelle. It was cooked al dente with just the right amount of firmness & bite & tossed in the creamiest cheese sauce with duck ragu. The overall dish was meaty & hearty while not feeling too heavy or greasy. For the largest shared plate, we opted for the Guinea fowl. The skin was wonderfully crispy while the meat remained juicy & savory. The oyster mushrooms & sunchokes were great complements that cut through the meatiness, & every ingredient tasted magnificent when slathered in the herbaceous salsa verde. We finished our meal with the flan-one of the best I have ever had without a doubt. The custard base was so bouncy, rich, & creamy. It was topped with the most delicate whipped cream that wasn't overly sweet & the best dulce de leche I have tasted in my life. The thick caramel's nuttiness & richness made me speechless. I could eat hundreds of these flans without ever getting tired of the dessert.
Restaurant Beba delivered us a perfect experience. Each dish was brought to us at a good pace, allowing us to enjoy every bite with no rush. The amazing service, atmosphere, &, of course, food has guaranteed that I will return the next time I'm visiting Montreal. If you want a meal you will never forget, Beba is the place to go!

Every thing we had was absolutely delicious & the staff was so kind! Even gave us some other local places to stop at while we were in town for vacation. Would recommend go back again just for the dates alone

Nous y sommes allés avec ma soeur pour nos anniversaires accompagnées de nos parents.
Les plats sont fins & savoureux, la cuisine a vraiment surpassé nos attentes.
Le service par contre était décevant. La serveuse était condescendante & se regardait dans le miroir en nous parlant.
Nous avons aussi remarqué un manque de transparence au niveau des prix. Le nombre de portions par plat n'est pas indiqué sur le menu & elles ont été doublées (même quadruplées) sans nous avertir préalablement. Le budget n'était pas un problème & nous avons mangé à notre faim, mais il nous semble que nous aurions du être avertis.
Je recommande ce restaurant, mais je vous souhaite de tomber sur une serveuse plus agréable. Les autres employés étaient fort sympathiques!

Wonderful meal & experience. The restaurant is small & charming, like an old school bistro in Europe. Great music soundtrack of old standards played at a volume that allowed for easy conversation. The food was excellent & plates are to be shared; knish with caviar, confit Cornish game hen over a bed of buttery veggies, tagliatelle pasta in a game hen w/offal ragu & an amazing flan for dessert. We were very full & satisfied! Highly recommended!

My partner & I had such an amazing experience at Beba! The customer service was phenomenal! The food was excellent & the staff were wonderful! They were attentive, knowledgeable & friendly. They provided great recommendations from the menu & always checked-in on us. As mentioned above, the food was excellent! It had different flavours but were not overpowering each other. Would come back here again & I highly recommend this place to anyone who is going to Montreal.
