I had such an amazing experience at Sauce Buvette! The atmosphere is absolutely incredible - warm, stylish, & so welcoming from the moment you walk in. The food was delicious, beautifully prepared, & full of flavor. Every dish felt carefully made with high-quality ingredients.

What truly made the experience unforgettable was the service. The staff were so friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming, making us feel comfortable & appreciated throughout the entire evening. You can really feel the passion & care behind this place.

I would definitely recommend Sauce Buvette to anyone looking for a cozy spot with amazing food, great vibes, & exceptional hospitality. Can't wait to come back!

The food was just okay.
The wine list was limited, especially the wine selection by the glass for a wine bar/buvette.
The service was fine. The wine list is nearly exclusively Italian wines, but we had no real presentation of the wines, a focus on Italian varietals or terroir. The decision to limit the wine list to Italian wines didn't seem to match the rest of the restaurant & wasn't a plus, as far as making the experience special/interesting/unique.

We wouldn't recommend it, nor consider going back, at the price point & the fantastic selection of restaurants in Montreal.

I've been to Sauce Buvette du Quartier many times, & every visit is unforgettable.

Every time I go, I have to order the Bresaola, the whipped ricotta, & their calamari they never miss. I've also been getting the lobster-filled ravioli with an order of focaccia, & it's absolutely insane.

What makes it even more impressive is that there's only one person in the kitchen. Domenico cooks everything himself, Wednesday to Saturday, lunch & dinner.

Then there's the cocktail & wine list such a unique variety. I always order the Il Carbonaione, & it's the perfect pairing with the lobster ravioli.

Best part about this is is that it had free parking at the back no need to find a parking lot on the street!😊

✨ If you only eat at one restaurant in Montreal, make it this one! ✨

Wow. Just wow. Sauce Buvette Du Quartier is hands down one of the BEST restaurants in Montreal. The calamari? Freshest I've ever had. The lobster ravioli with shrimp & squid? Unreal (& yes, all made from scratch!). & don't even get me started on the chocolate mousse - I'm a total mousse addict & this was literally the best of my life.

The vibe here is amazing - cozy, lively, & you instantly feel like family. Duncan & Julian take care of everything, & if you're lucky, you'll even get a live operatic song from Natalya (goosebumps!). Chef Dominic is a genius - you'll be dreaming about his food long after you leave.

Seriously, if you live in Montreal or are just visiting, put this place at the TOP of your list. You'll thank me later.

J'ai été déçue par ma visite à la buvette chez sauce. Le service fût impeccable mais les 4 plats que nous avons mangés manquaient de saveur & les fruits de mer étaient caoutchouteux.
