Review Summary

Vandale is widely praised for its unique speakeasy atmosphere, creative decor, and consistently delicious, generously portioned cuisine that features French-inspired dishes. Visitors frequently highlight the exceptional quality of the cocktails and the specialized mixology workshops offered on-site. While most guests experience attentive and welcoming service, feedback regarding the speed and coordination of service is occasionally mixed, with some noting delays during busier periods. Despite these minor inconsistencies and the building's challenging stair access, it remains a highly recommended destination in Old Montreal for those seeking a memorable, immersive dining experience.

La cuisine était vraiment bonne mais les portions beaucoup trop petites. Toutes les convives sont ressortis du restaurant en ayant faim... De plus, nous souhaitions acheter une bouteille de vin & le serveur nous a proposé de goûter le vin avant de confirmer notre choix de bouteille, & une de ses collègues est arrivée en disant que non ce n'était pas possible. Pas top niveau relation client...

What a lovely way to spend an evening! The oysters were fresh & sweet, the carpaccio, fabulous, & the Caesar salad was one of the best ever. After dinner drop into the Speakeasy for a nightcap-the old fashioned was to die for!

Great place in Old Port serving excellent food for a resonable price. There are a lot of choices on the menu, with different types of fish, seafood, meats, & veggies, which is suitable for everyone with dietary restrictions. We got the 4 course menu for 53$ & had lots of food. I especially loved the scallops, they were phenomenal with the celeriac purée. Cocktails are a form of art here, thoughfully imagined & created with passion. They are researched & well balanced with unique flavours that work perfectly. A place that is artfully decorated with local artists artwork. Don't forget to visit the Speakeasy downstairs! It's a vibe!
