We had a fantastic dinner at Restaurant Beba. The food, drinks, service, & ambiance were all superb. The knish w/caviar was of course great. But, the mantadito w/mackerel was fantastic. Next, we had the roasted maitake mushroom w/tallegio dish, which was super interesting & unique. The radicchio & escarole salad was perfect, as others have noted. & our bigger dish was the bacalao w/clams & octopus in a light tomato (?) sauce. It was spectacular. We sat at the bar & had the good fortune of meeting & being taken care of by Pablo, the co-owner, who was lovely! But, all the servers were sweet, caring, & always there for whatever you needed.
We loved the very relaxed & chill atmosphere, including the fun music. This is NOT a stuffy place. It was relaxed & lovely, but everything was done faultlessly. Highly recommend.

My adult daughter & I had a fantastic meal & a fantastic time at Beba. We sat at the bar & had amazing service. The food was just outstanding. Absolutely fantastic experience.

Excellent food, service & ambiance. Our reservation was at the bar which granted us the added experience of watching the food & drinks prepared! The menu is designed to be shared; however the person sitting next to us at the bar had come in on her own & they provided the option for 1/2 portions of everything so that she could still experience a variety of dishes without waste. Very impressed & looking forward to a return visit.

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile. I actually got introduced to this restaurant from looking at Chef Vincent Gee (Sushi Nishinokaze)'s posts, & I decided to give it a try because of this. Upon further research, I found that this restaurant was very highly ranked in Canada's 100 Best Restaurants!
Beba is a small, intimate restaurant in the heart of Verdun serving food & drink inspired by the Spanish & Italian cultures that settled in Argentina?. Argentine-born brothers Ari (former chef de cuisine, Liverpool House) & Pablo Schor (former barman at Vancouver's Bao Bei) share sophisticated versions of their Italian- & Spanish-inflected childhood favourites.
The menu for this restaurant changes every week, so I wasn't able to look on Instagram for any inspirations to help me order.
My buddy & I tried:
•empanada
•bone marrow pan con tomate, anchovy
•strozzapreti lamb ragu, fava beans, mint
•pork chop kohlrabi, pancetta, white wine
My favourite order here is the bone marrow. It's so delicious & fatty, & it goes so well with the sourness of the anchovy, taste of tomato, crisp of bread.
The empanada was delicious too. The strozzapreti was a bit too salty in my opinion, & not that special. The pork chop was prepared pretty well; despite being a thick cut of pork chop, the meat was all nice & tender.

The food was great though the menu is a bit limited. I was a bit surprised by the atmosphere. It was more of an urban bar type atmosphere (in a somewhat sketchy neighborhood). Our waiter was great & very helpful.

The service was excellent. Thank you to the bar tender for sending me your restaurant & bar list. You're a real one. Our server was really funny & I'm glad she took the time to tease me & tell I'm wrong about a few things. That kind of service is honest & refreshing.
The food however was really up & down. While I did enjoy the mackerel. I was very disappointed to have been served it with such an oxidized blood line. While it looks much fresher online in their photos! This should not be the case at the #7 best restaurant in Canada. Maybe don't order this dish on a Sunday. The knish was a bit dry for my taste. I would prefer it to be more moist. As a life long lover of knishes I was dying to try these & it turned to be my least favourite dish here. I had much better ones earlier in the day in Mile End.
The upside for was the octopus, clams & cannellini beans. This dish I will be raving about for a while. I also thought the foie gras dates were exceptional. Normally I don't like giving negative reviews. However I was looking forward to this meal a lot. I travelled here for my birthday dinner from across the country & I'm leaving kind of disappointed. I probably won't be back at this price point for inconsistent quality.

After living in Montreal for five years & traveling extensively through the USA, Europe, & Asia, I can confidently say Beba ranks in the top 5% of restaurants I've experienced worldwide.
The atmosphere is warm, the service impeccable, & every dish is crafted with creativity & care. The flavors are bold yet refined, turning simple ingredients into something unforgettable.
The service was excellent, & the bartender (his name is Evan) was especially kind & welcoming. His recommendations were great ! That personal touch really elevated the entire experience.
Beba isn't just a great restaurant-it's a true gem in Montreal's culinary scene. I can't wait to go back.

Really surprised to see the reviews re. service; we came here a few weeks ago & found the service absolutely exquisite. The bartender (Kathleen?) was super sweet (she suggested'Pisco
Sours' with a splash of passionfruit, which were phenomenal) & Marie -Eve was engaging & attentive, constantly topping up our glasses, making sure the table was wiped after each service, getting our coats whenever we wanted to smoke. She took time to explain how each item was prepared & the source of the ingredients- which made us want to try every last thing on the menu, a truly enthusiastic presentation. We felt pampered the whole time we were there by a warm & welcoming staff who clearly take pride in their work & are passionate about the dishes & vibe they create. Ambiance/seating/lighting was chill & comforting. Highly recommend the mackerel-bagel-fusion dish & pheasant with fava beans. We had a superb time🤍

It might not look like much from the outside but it is worth the hype. The food is flavorful without a dull bite, & I really enjoyed the plays in textures they worked with. We took some of their off-menu items, & they did not disappoint.
We were seated at the bar & enjoyed the conversation with the bartender, who was always eager to discuss food & (very good) drinks. Regarding their drinks menu, they had an interesting selection of cocktails (way beyond the ordinary), & also had a large selection of amaro (they were kind enough to let us taste before serving us a full glass).
Music was not too loud that we needed to shout, but enough that we couldn't hear other tables. Service was fast & precise. The change of plates & cutlery after every service was a nice touch. The local is quite small, which meant we could also enjoy the view of the kitchen quite easily from our bar seats.

While on a short stint in Montreal, I had the pleasure of dining at Restaurant Beba. This little gem seemed tucked away from our'Plateau' lodgings, but it was well worth the trip. We were greeted by an exceptionally warm staff & plate after plate left us in stunned silence. Aided by one of their delicious wines, we spent much of our evening doing our best barstool boogie to their near-perfect playlist. I want to give a special shoutout to Mel for treating us like old friends & honestly, I could eat the Maitake w Hollendaise dish until the end of time. Merci beaucoup!

Une petite place à découvrir, service impeccable, suggestions de vins / cocktails & explications du menu A1. Plats originaux & ultra savoureux. Avec Pablo au bar qui était très attentionné & passionné! Un gros wow!!!!!!

Went here a while ago for a birthday. Sat at the bar. Some of the best service I've ever had. Not at all overbearing or pretentious, just very friendly with great recommendations. Awesome bar menu. Think we drank beer, wine, & liquor (& paid for it the next day...), but they had excellent choices for all, even some fancier import sharing bottles of beer. The food itself was excellent quality & well-made, but lacking a real "stand-out" flavor. Partner had an empanada to start which he said was one of the best he's had, but mentioned his chicken main dish was a bit one-note. I had a pasta myself which, again, was well-constructed, but a bit plain. Portions are quite good for a place of this price point, an app & a main each certainly sufficed. Pretty lacking on vegetarian options, but they were very accommodating upon request. Overall, though the food didn't blow my mind, I would 100% go back for the vibes & the staff.

Fantastic food & just about the best bar service I've ever experienced. Can't recommend enough.

Beba isn't so much a restaurant, but more an extension of the owners' own kitchen. Although this place takes its roots mainly from Italian, Spanish, & Argentinian cultures, I think they can claim a little French inspiration as the term "Bon Vivant" is exactly how I would describe the duo behind Beba. Ari & Pablo are exceptionally skilled in the art of hospitality & the rest of their team does not fall short on delivering the same. The definition of unpretentious yet highly attentive service. Super patient, knowledgeable, & willing to accommodate vegetarian diet without fuss (& certainly without serving just salad). The dishes are not overly complex, sometimes only 3-4 ingredients, but they are extremely precise & invoke wonderful emotions. The passion of Ari, Pablo, & their team is strongly conveyed in everything they put in front of you & their eyes would light up while discussing a specific ingredient or wine producer. Having tried a lot of restaurants in Montreal, this place is our new benchmark & even sits above some of the best restaurants we have visited abroad. Our only regret is not coming here sooner! Aside from cocktails, we let the chef & the bar decide what we ate & drank & I can't suggest this approach enough. Price tag on the experience is not low, but worth every penny & we honestly expected a way higher bill with what was brought out. This was a birthday dinner, & we didn't even let the staff know until the end. We forgot to mention it when we arrived but as the night went on, we were treated like royalty & didn't even think to mention it! Although, this seemed to be the normal level of service for all patrons. Thank you for the wonderful experience & until next time!

Came in as a walk-in. Was really just looking for a place out of the heat. The service was fantastic, each employee asked if we preferred english or french, & was very personable. The guy behind the bar was most of our interactions, & offered specials before listing them - a great touch. He was excited to share how each menu item was made & made everything sound both delicious & simplified how it so that even I could understand it. Skipped the fancy restaurant terms & just explained what the food was in clear & excited terms! He was super personable, noticed my partner's tattoo, & spoke about his own for a bit. We ordered the montadito, which is essentially 4 pieces of mackerel on two sesame seed buns, with horseradish, & the fish marinated in vinegar. Each bite was juicy & delicious, Even 25 minutes later I can still feel the flavours on my tongue. Definitely an excellent place to check out if you're in the city.

Sophisticated atmosphere w coziness that makes you feel like you are at your local jaunt. We sat at the bar & Antoine provided terrific insight & direction into our dining experience. We started w the knish, the caviar is superb! Followed by the involtini, pasta special & guinea fowl wings...all delicious...& accompanied by great 🍸cocktails...c'est Magnifique!
Sam
Not sure food is the star here given extensive wine & cocktail menu. While small & Cozy, feels more like a bar than restaurant. Food ingredients were top notch, but presentation was "flat". Service, while efficient, lacked warmth & a certain degree of class given the prices.

Beba ranks as the number 8 top restaurant in Canada for 2024. When entering you wonder how? It's just two young looking cooks behind the counter. While the food did not disappoint, there was much to be desired from the flow of service & the space itself. The space is actually has a ton of charm, & the outdoor patio with the fire is very cute - unless you get sat there during midge & mosquito season. Trying to have a conversation with the bugs just constantly hovering was tough, I'm glad we got moved inside. Once inside, we were sat at the bar where the bartender was pleasant, knowledgable, & always smiling. The service would be 5 stars, but the production & speed from the kitchen was atrocious. 4 dishes in 2.5 hours just left you always desiring something. Getting to the food, it was excellent, I would go as far as saying better than Vin Mon Lapin (currently the top in Canada). Starting with the mackerel toast - delicious. When it landed on the table, my guest & I both looked at each other thinking this was going to be a fish bomb of oily stinkyness - boy were we wrong. First bite, good, second bite, great, third & fourth bite left us saying "wow, I could order a few more of those, yum!". Moving to the strozapretti & rabbit ragu, absolutely killer dish, one of the better ragu dishes I've ever had. Again, we could have eaten many more. The salad was a salad, a nice break with acidity & freshness, & the guinea fowl had tons of flavour & perfectly cooked & crispy skin. Getting to the desserts, the classic flan has been a staple on their menu since they've opened & it's a very good version of this classic dish, but it did not hold a candle to the wonderful pistachio semi-freddo. The texture & taste of that dish was outstanding. If there weren't so many restaurants to visit in Canada, I'd be back here a few more times - it's excellent. If they can just speed up the service from the little kitchen, that would be great. Overall though, I can see why they are a Top 10 in 2024.

This was our first time, & definitely not our last. There is nothing to improve here. Our waiter/bartender Antoine was absolutely impeccable & all of the food was delicious. We can't wait to come back, we could not have asked for a better dining experience.

Finally. A good "fancy" restaurant where the portions were good for the price. You get exactly what your order with no frills. Just good quality ingredients. Cocktails were on par with high end cocktails bars but at a more reasonable price. Seasonal menu makes me excited to come back!
