Review Summary

Reviews describe Sauce Buvette Du Quartier as a warm, inviting spot with a cozy atmosphere and attentive service that many say makes the evening special. The food earns frequent praise for generous portions and variety, with standouts like lobster ravioli, calamari, bresaola, whipped ricotta and focaccia, plus well executed braised beef and magret de canard, while a few dishes such as morue or certain pastas are noted as lacking depth. The wine list is enjoyed for its range, though some feel the program could be more cohesive or better aligned with the menu. Guests often highlight service that is friendly and professional, and several reviews mention a lively vibe with live music or an opera singer adding a memorable touch. The setting in Griffintown is repeatedly described as welcoming and intimate, though seating near the kitchen or on the terrace can affect intimacy and noise on busy nights. Overall Sauce Buvette Du Quartier is regarded as a hidden gem with good value for the neighborhood, a strong regular crowd, and a willingness to return for future occasions, with parking behind the restaurant noted as a plus.

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!😊

Cozy Italian restaurant in the heart of Griffintown with a warm, inviting atmosphere.

We've visited twice now, & every single time the food has been outstanding. We've tried all of the pasta dishes, as well as the burrata, focaccia, & arancini, & each item has been consistently excellent. Every person we've brought here has loved their meal, which says a lot about the consistency of the kitchen.

What really elevates the experience, though, is the service. The staff genuinely make you feel taken care of from start to finish. They're friendly, attentive, & always courteous, creating an experience that makes you want to keep coming back.

J'ai goûté à leurs sandwichs au poulet ainsi que celui à la mortadelle. Les deux étaient excellents mais j'ai un grand penchant pour celui à la mortadelle. Je suis une grande fan de sandwich sur pain focaccia & ils étaient délicieux!!!

An absolute delight to have discovered this Restaurant! From the greeting upon entry to the seating at the outside terrace the tone of evening delight was set. For this the Chef & his Wait Staff Team did not disappoint! & for the Star of'THE SHOW', yes Natalya we will get to your singing shortly :)..'THE FOOD'! For starters the Fluffy Focaccia with plentiful whipped & seasoned butter & balsamic - olive oil delight was a treat when married to the Whipped Ricotta plate (endives, fried pasta & fig marmalade) ='MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN'! Now for the main dish; the Demi Rigatoni was both delicious & plentiful! The beef ragu was definitely not of the overnight variety for it had a richness & hint of sweetness which balanced well with the oyster mushrooms & the perfect al dente Pasta Rigatoni. Now for the Master of singing, Natalya...yes she has a Masters in Opera! She delighted the terrace crowd with her beautiful voice, her presence ever so thoughtful & considerate taking the time in conversation for my friend & I. In summary...dining experience extraordinaire! **********

Lobster ravioli was on point (great quality seafood included) & don't forget to order the focaccia with your meal so you can soak up all the sauces. Amazing service & an ideal spot to go to in Griffintown.

Great service & drinks, however sorry to concur that the food was a miss. Not sure the owner arguing in the comments is helping the situation…

Every dish lacked flavour; the ravioli was mushy but the shrimp around it tough & unseasoned. The focaccia was inedible without a dip in the balsamic. Not a single dish I would order again.

But lots of promise - especially with the great service & nice ambience.

Edit to reply to the owner's comment: I evaluated you fairly, pointing out the positives (service, drinks & atmosphere) but 2 stars overall because the food was bad. I go to a restaurant to eat so obviously my experience will be most heavily determined by the quality of the food, not how nice the waiters are. Hope that helps!
