Restaurant Beba est largement reconnu comme une destination culinaire incontournable à Montréal, acclamé pour son menu créatif d'inspiration italienne, espagnole et argentine ainsi que pour son atmosphère intime et accueillante. De nombreux clients soulignent le maquereau, les dattes farcies au foie gras et le flan comme des plats emblématiques témoignant d'une exécution magistrale et d'ingrédients de haute qualité. Bien que le service soit fréquemment décrit comme chaleureux, compétent et professionnel, une minorité de convives a relevé des incohérences occasionnelles dans la communication ou la préparation des plats. Malgré des commentaires sur les prix élevés par rapport à la taille des portions et un niveau sonore parfois soutenu, la grande majorité des avis reflète une expérience gastronomique mémorable, faisant de cet établissement une adresse privilégiée pour les amateurs de bonne cuisine.
what an incredible restaurant. I had to go here twice in a row when I was in Montreal. It was that good. It blows my mind they don;t have a Michelin star yet. They were on point on every single aspect: service was incredible & attentive, the cocktails were outstanding, the bartendress was also very open to making spontaneous cocktails & she did a phenomenal job. The food on both days were incredible: this restaurant was definitely the highlight of my Montreal trip. The neighborhood itself is meh, but the restaurant is a gem, it could easily mop the floor with Michelin star restaurants in NY for example. I did make reservations on both days & it is highly recommended. The restaurant is small & fills up quickly. On the second day I did the chef's tasting menu & it was wonderfully assembled.
I ate at Beba a few weeks ago while visiting Montreal. I'd set an alert since reservations are hard to get, so we were thrilled when a 6:30 opened up the day of & rearranged our plans to get out to Verdun.
If I were only rating the kitchen, this is an easy five stars. The food is outstanding, the knish maybe a touch over-seasoned, but it's clear why this place has the reputation it does.
Where it fell short was the service, specifically the pacing. I eat at places like this a lot & I get how it works. Margins are thin, they need to turn tables. That's exactly why we showed up on time, ordered right away, didn't sit through a bunch of cocktails, & ate at a normal pace.
When we ordered, our server asked if that would be enough food. We said we thought so, we'd gotten several appetizers, two mains, wine, & knew dessert was coming. He said if we were still hungry later we could always add more. We were pleasantly surprised, since it's usually one & done at places like this.
Then, after our last course, before asking whether we were full or wanted anything, he set the menu down & said if we wanted more we could only order things that weren't fired. & stood there. I said no, we're good. He asked if we were having dessert. We said yes & ordered it, & the check arrived with it.
If we'd been overstaying, that would be fair. I've had servers handle it warmly: sorry, we have a table waiting, please enjoy dessert but we'll need it after. This wasn't that. The check just landed, & he stood over my husband, silently, until I said I supposed it was time to pay. As he left, I heard him tell the couple waiting for our table that he'd been watching us & we were on our last bites.
I get wanting to reassure the next table. I didn't appreciate being made the scapegoat. We did our part. If plates came out too slowly & the table needed turning, that's a floor problem, & there's a gracious way to handle it. This wasn't it.
I debated writing this, because I know how slim the margins are. But I was so excited to come here & walked out with a nearly thousand-dollar check & a sour experience. I wouldn't want that for anyone else.
Delicious food & amazing service. Reservations highly recommended as they are extremely busy & popular.
The Montadito was probably my favourite dish & the cocktail was absolutely amazing (vermouth & olives). My server/bartender was on top of everything despite how busy he was. The rest of the staff are also extremely attentive, clearing plates immediately, refilling water, wiping down the table, etc.
It was only me at the bar & I was given the option to have half portions while also having more room to try other dishes. I decided to order everything full size, no regrets, but for my next visit I'll definitely take that route. There were so many other dishes I wanted to try after watching the other guests eat!
Overall I highly recommend this restaurant. If you are in Montreal this is a must try. I will definitely be back!!
I enjoy a food adventure & that's why I like to try different restos.
Unfortunately this didn't make it for me.
We started with the Knish with caviar . A knish is a mashed potatoes & onions wrapped in pastry. It was one very small bite & it was topped with a very bland caviar…not the good stuff…very overrated & overpriced…$39.
Next we ordered the mackerel. It was 2 small slices on a very little sesame bread with fresh horseradish & a big blob of butter. Way too much butter.
Then we had the Rabbit, which was very tender, & mildly flavoured.
We didn't really care for the cocktails or the wine so this place didn't hit its marks for us.
On commence par les cocktails.
Pour ma femme ok mais sans plus
De mon côté le mosquito, ok il y avait du gingembre donc tu t'attends à un peu d'épices mais là, après trois quatre gorgées mes papilles ont fait grève… plus personne. Soyez subtiles dans vos mélanges !!
Les deux premiers amusés bouches parfaits, on passe aux plats intermédiaires, le jambon de boeuf avec olives & piment ouais pas mal mais 34$$, un peu bout de pain maison un peu grillé avec une belle huile d'olive & le plat aurait été parfait.
Les pâtes avec les petits calamars japonais manquaient de cuisson & auraient étaient bien meilleurs plus saisis.
Par contre pourquoi encore rajouté du piment !!!
Pour le reste placés à l'entrée avec l'enceinte au dessus de la tête… on avait du mal à se parler.
On sort pas souvent, on pensait se faire un bon resto en amoureux, bah c'est manqué!
Soyez plus généreux sur les portions & restez simples sur les recettes.
Trop de tralalas
Dès notre arrivée 18h30 ,nous avons eu un bref Bonsoir suivi immédiatement du commentaire :' juste pour vous aviser , vous devez libérer la table pour 20h30 alors vous avez 2 heures pour manger !' Disons que l'expérience partait sur une mauvaise note !!! Nous avons reçu ensuite nos cocktails & 1 minute après pas plus nos 2 entrées. Comme nous voulions prendre notre cocktail d'abord , nous avons fait attendre un peu avant de manger , c'est alors que nous avons eu un deuxième rappel que nous devrions quitter dans 1h30 !!! En apportant un 3 e plat puis 5 minutes le plat principal. Jamais , jamais nous nous sommes fait offrir la carte des vins ou suggérer un accord avec nos plats ! Nous avons de l'eau & un cocktail ....Ils étaient trop pressés ??? Nous avons eu droit à un troisième rappel à 20 mins ! Je dois dire que suite au 3e rappel , ils nous ont offert de rester en mentionnant que nous sommes en chance puisque certaines personnes avaient mangé rapidement que nous pouvions rester un peu mais que c'est exceptionnel !!!! & que 21h la facture sera sur la table ! Nous n'avons même pas terminé le dernier plat & avons quitté ! De plus , il y avait plusieurs places de libres à notre depart .Nous sommes allées à un restaurant tout près auquel nous avons eu un service attentionné & très agréable !! Ça sera la dernière fois pour moi chez vous malheureusement !
I just loved everything about Beba. It's small & cozy, but the staff make you feel at home as soon as you walk in. We had seats at the bar, so we were right next to the bartender. Our cocktails were delicious, & the waiter's suggestions for wine were spot on. Didn't hesitate to make us try too. Eclectic menu that can get you out of your comfort zone, reminds me of Tripes & Caviar back in the day. We tried the homemade pasta with blonde liver sauce, & the lamb neck, we enjoyed them both. We also played it safe, the duck empanadas & the butternut squash are crowd pleasers & did not dissapoint. It's not a cheap night out, but we went all out, with dessert & digestif. We felt we had our money's worth. We'll definitely be back here.
