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.

We came to Sauce for our Valentine's Dinner. We loved it!

The food was outstanding & the atmosphere was cozy & warm. We live in the neighborhood (Pt St Charles) & wanted to try Sauce. We found it interesting that it was connected to an adjacent restaurant that had live music & shows.

Our party of 4 was thrilled. The entrees were generous & flavorful. Chef Dom even came out & greeted us at our table.

The wine selection was excellent & the service was impeccable.

We are so pleased to have had this experience & will return for another special occasion.

We dined at Sauce on a Saturday evening. We were a party of four (4).

We call this our Magical Evening. The service was outstanding. Our dishes were well prepared & reflected the care & attention provided by Domenico & his staff.

We were so pleased to find this please. It was warm, comforting & exhibited an attention to detail.

We will be back & encourage all to support this fine establishment.

Best,
Hicham

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.

My recent visit to Sauce left me with mixed feelings, primarily due to the stark contrast between the lackluster food & the truly outstanding service.
From a culinary perspective, the experience was quite disappointing. The lobster ravioli I ordered was unfortunately watery, lacking the rich, concentrated flavor one expects from such a dish. Equally uninspired was the fried chicken, which arrived completely devoid of seasoning - not even a hint of salt. For anyone who appreciates good food, the offerings here simply don't measure up.
However, where the kitchen fell short, the front-of-house staff truly shined. The service was excellent throughout our meal. Our server was attentive, professional, & went above & beyond, making an otherwise forgettable meal more palatable.
We opted to sit on the terrace, which presented a missed opportunity. While it has the potential to be a beautiful outdoor dining spot, it currently feels neglected, as if the budget ran out mid-design, resulting in a hodgepodge of'beach chairs' rather than cohesive outdoor seating.
Given the significant culinary shortcomings & the uninspired ambiance, I wouldn't return. While the service was commendable, it simply isn't enough to compensate for the unappetizing food & the disjointed setting.
