VANDALE Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)

Located in Old Montreal, Vandale invites you to discover the cuisine of renowned chef Alex Payon as well as the cocktail menu of bar chef Jake Cristofaro. Located on McGill Street, a stone's throw from the Square Victoria metro and the Old Port, the Vandale restaurant opened its doors in September 2021. The kitchen offers classic dishes revisited with talent using local products.

Designed by the renowned Speakeasy team, the interior of Vandale Restaurant housed in a historic building, reflects the hip sensibilities of the Old Port and Griffintown. Arranged on several levels, this restaurant allows you to observe the 'Street Art' of a dozen Montreal artists. The spectacle is all at once in the hall, on the walls and in the open kitchen. The Vandal Team awaits you there.

Review Summary

Vandale receives high marks for a refined experience with food that many say is cooked to perfection, generous portions, and a crowd favorite like the lamb, while the ambience and décor deliver a stylish speakeasy vibe that keeps the room feeling lively; the drinks and cocktail program are a standout feature with artful presentations and even interactive mixology workshops in the basement that add a cool, immersive element; some notes point to occasional service hiccups such as long gaps between courses, uneven attentiveness, and a few issues around payment or ordering, though overall the staff are described as friendly and capable; the venue's originality, murals, and wine focus create a memorable setting, and the whole experience is often described as value for money, making Vandale a must-try in Old Montreal with plans to return for more dishes and drinks.

My partner & I came here for the MTL à Table 2025 edition & I wasn't disappointed. The food was good & the service was great. We were super full as the portion was quite big & that was definitely worth $50/person. I love the atmosphere & the decoration were quirky but in a speakeasy-ish cute vibe. The only downside was the drink; I think I got a very average Nestea taste-like iced tea while I ordered a special mocktail.
Also:
-Paid-parking on the street
-Super cute menu printed on vinyl disks
-Tricky speakeasy entrance from the street, you gotta know how to get in

Mtl a table experience.
Food was all delicious, portions are very generous, esp the starters. Menu was varied.

Waiters are helpful but not overly well trained or well informed esp regarding wine choices. Service was prompt however.
Seems like a young crowd favors this place.

Group of 3, we went for MTL à Table! It was a very good tasting menu! The portions were pretty big considering it was 4 courses. The gnocchi & short rib were fantastic! The Staff, decor & vibe are great- there was just a super extra loud table next to us. All in all a very pleasant discovery !

Nous y sommes allé pour MTL à table. C'était notre première fois dans ce restaurant. Le cadre est très sympa, le service vraiment efficace. La nourriture était savoureuse cependant... Les quantités étaient vraiment petites. Quel dommage d'avoir encore faim en sortant d'un menu 5 services (menu de Montréal à table). Nous retenterons peut être l'expérience mais pas dans le cadre de MTL à table.

Le menu 4 services pour MTLATABLE était délicieux. Les saveurs se mariaient parfaitement ensemble, les produits semblaient frais. Le carpaccio a été un coup de coeur pour toute notre table. Son assaisonnement & la texture en bouche avec les câpres frites, la moutarde étaient parfaits. Le tiramisu au Nutella en dessert était gourmand mais léger, & a bien fini le repas.
