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.

For the price, food is not exceptional. High prices for mediocre food.

Loved our dinner here. We had drinks, oysters, & a few dishes: carpacio, eggplant & the oyster mushrooms. My partner still talks about the mushroom dish since he usually hates them but adored this! We'll be going again.

Went to this restaurant because the event of Montréal à table. We tried the table d'hôte menu. & it was good. Everything was tasty & well presented. The cocktails were very funky. They based on some classic cocktails & they made it into tasty & well presented cocktails with some funky ingredients. They also have a opened kitchen which you could see the staffs working in it. & it was a good experience. They also have another bar inside there basement. I think personally it was way too dark. They only lighted the bar with a few candles (& you could barely see the person who was sitting infront of you). But the cocktails were tasty. Overall why did I only give three stars, the food was good but it wasn't something I would come back for it. & the basement bar need to improve the lighting.
