Sauce Buvette Du Quartier

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.

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.

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.

i stopped in here after an afternoon of painting by the canal, & we were welcomed warmly. we weren't sure if we could just get a drink, & were told we would need to eat something, which we were happy to. we were escorted to the lively courtyard, where there was music playing & a festive atmosphere.

one of us got a beautiful little salad, one ordered calmari, one had the lobster ravioli & i had oysters & gaspacho. all were more than satisfied with the food.

but it was the attentive service & the vibe that made it special. two of our camarades left, but we stayed on to enjoy the atmosphere & have another glass of wine.

we'll be back!

This place is such a hidden gem!! Didn't take many photos as I didn't plan on posting… but it deserves a shoutout , loved the lobster pasta, the buratta & the caviar app that we ordered. Would definitely recommend checking out!
