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.

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.

Had a very nice time & dinner. Please try to secure the upper level side though as some of our personal items fell on the guest dining on the floor level...

Super service! Très bon choix d'accord mets & vin. Les desserts seraient à repenser, tarte citron = pâte trop cuite & la garniture de citron très liquide. Le tiramisu manquait de doigts de dames & je cherche encore le goût du Nutella. Merci !

The service & food were great. We really appreciated that the chefs were able to accommodate my girlfriend's gluten allergy without compromise. The only negative would be that temperature in the restaurant was too warm.
