A contemporary and inviting bistro in the heart of the city where comforting and often reinvented classics that Montréalers love exist alongside creations inspired by local flavours. At Vallier, locally sourced ingredients and products are spotlighted both on the menu and on the cocktail list.
Vallier Bistro Montréalais presents a stylish, welcoming space with bright, generous seating and a lively yet relaxed atmosphere; the menu offers a thoughtful mix of Québécois comfort dishes and creative touches, with standouts like tartare, poutine, seafood dishes and seasonal plates, all prepared with local ingredients; cocktails and wines complement the meals well, and the overall experience is enhanced by friendly, professional service that shows in attentive pacing and hospitality; the vibe suits date nights, friends gatherings, and casual meals any season, though a few visits note occasional slower service or items not available and some dishes may be seasoned more lightly, but the overall value, quality, and warmth keep bringing guests back.
We stumbled here by chance & were impressed with this lovely bistro. I had the best French Onion Soup with real Gruyère cheese & beer broth & al. The Entrecôte Steaks were also wonderful. Great wine selection. We went with Sicilian Option. Finally dessert & Cafe Macchiato was great finale!
We visited Vallier Bistro as part of the MTL à Table event, & it was a memorable experience. While the service was a bit slow, the overall experience more than made up for it. The Toblerone martini was the highlight of the evening-it's absolutely divine, almost addictive, like a dessert & a cocktail rolled into one. The food was equally impressive, especially the oysters, which were fresh & perfectly prepared. Every bite & sip felt indulgent. The beef tartare was also divine. The location is ideal, & the ambiance inside is classy & elegant, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or an upscale evening out. Despite the slow service, I'd return in a heartbeat for the drinks, food, & atmosphere.
I don't normally write reviews but the food at this place was outstanding. Between the starters & the main dishes coming out was a bit of a delay, but the cocktails & the food was amazing.
I stopped by after a long day & had an early dinner of mussels & fries. Absolutely perfect. Look at the photos: a delightful simple salad, then the mussels & yummy fries. I wanted an after dinner drink but didn't know which one to have. The waitress recommended the Pineau des Charentes which was amazing. I can't wait to visit again when I'm in town.

Made reservation online. Show up & the restaurant is closed. Website hours said open, Google said open, & I think even the front door hours said open. So, I guess call & make sure they're open & reserve that way.
Je change mon avis de 5* après être revenu après 3ans. Le service est devenu lent, nous avons été servi par un certain B* au service du soir, qui a été vraiment très désagréable toute la soirée. Nous étions un groupe de 8 personnes pour fêter un anniversaire. Il ne méritait clairement pas les 18% de pourboire proposé au minimum par la machine. Avec un total d'environ 65$ par personne. Le calamar en entrée n'est pas spécialement bon ni frais. Les plats principaux sont juste corrects. Les desserts sont congelés, & très fades. le fondant au chocolat n'est pas fait maison, ni la sauce chocolat. La présentation & les goûts du pouding chômeur sont peut-être à revoir. Je ne recommande ni les entrées ni les desserts. Les plats principaux sont ok.

Stopped in late, a couple on their way out told us we were making the right choice, & they were right! Very friendly waitstaff, great food. The maple pudding is an exceptional dessert, not to be missed. Definitely worth a visit.
Was on holiday in Montréal earlier this month & visited this restaurant three times. The mushroom toast is one of the best things I've tasted!! French onion soup & steak & frites so good too! Service was very friendly. I can't wait to return!!
I went to Vallier for lunch, had moules frites. Delicious food, great atmosphere & very welcoming & attentive staff. Definitely adding Vallier to my go to spots!
Entre un tarif affiché sur la carte (salade à 27$), une assiette pas si garnie, une facture qui arrive avec un prix à 28$ la salade & le pourboire qui commence à 18%, on peut commencer à parler d'arnaque. J'ai beaucoup fréquenté le vallier ces dernières années mais ça a baissé en qualité & monté en prix malheureusement.
Restaurant de haute qualité culinaire, peu de plats à la carte mais excellents. Les serveurs sont très aimables & au soin de leurs clients notamment Philippe. Une terrasse extérieure est présente. Une agréable découverte sur Montréal. Mention spéciale à la pieuvre & à la salade bruxelloise.
