Review Summary

Stem Bar is widely praised for its vibrant atmosphere, stylish decor, and consistently delicious menu, with the burrata pancakes, beef tartare, and Brussels sprouts frequently highlighted as standout dishes. While many guests enjoy the creative cocktails and well curated wine list, experiences with the staff are mixed, ranging from exceptionally friendly and attentive to occasionally impatient regarding table turnover and seating policies. Although the quality of food is generally considered high, some visitors have expressed frustration over small portion sizes for the price, excessively salty dishes, or rigid reservation and service limitations. Overall, the establishment remains a popular local destination known for its great energy and flavorful offerings, making it a recommended spot for those who appreciate a lively social environment and refined sharing plates.

My favourite restaurant/bar in Montreal. I've been there so many times & the food has never disappointed. I've tried a lot of dishes on the menu & I've genuinely loved every single one. The pancake burrata truffle is hands down my favourite & a must order. This is the one place I recommend every single time someone asks me for restaurant recommendations in Montreal. & the service is impeccable!

Only had drinks with friends, waited close to an hour to be seated outside - but while we were waiting they forgot to come over to take drink orders when people joined our group & then they forgot about one person's drink (it came like 20mins after everyone else's). Very disappointing especially given the prices.

Malheureusement la serveuse ne parlait pas un mot français, & n'essayait même pas. Je trouve ca dommage! La nourriture était super bonne mais les portions trop petites, je suis restée sur ma faim.

From Vancouver - would come back probably 9/10 visits for the cavatelli & natural barolo paired. Chris did an excellent serving - really impressed overall.

Service was great & super kind/helpful. Food was good, I liked the brusse sprouts & fish was pretty good but wasn't too much of a fan of the burrata tbh. Very nice ambience though & I enjoyed my visit

Came as a group of 10. The first comment by the staff was'you should go across the street to the pub'. We stayed non the less.
Eventually we occupied two big tables. The waiter asked us to stay seated in our places because of the ordering of the dishes. He mentioned that we would not be able to order food past 2145. At 2300 they brought the bill & started to pick up the chairs.
It was my third time there, & in spite of the food being great, I will not be back because of the lack of patience & flexibility from some of the staff.
