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.

Le rapport qualité prix est impressionnant! La nourriture délicieuse. Le service attentionné & sans prétention. Il n'y avait pas beaucoup de gens mercredi soir quand j'y suis allée mais j'y retournerais sans hésiter! C'était agréable, abordable & délicieux

This is the second time I go to Vandale during Montréal à Table. I like to go during that time because the choices are limited & chefs are showing their best. I like the ambience, the painting on the walls (e.g. Anthony Bourdain). The service is great.

La qualité de la nourriture était au-delà de mes attentes & le service très sympathique. Maintenant je ne mets que 4 étoiles en raison du temps d'attente entre chaque assiettes, quelques erreurs de commande & surtout, des terminaux qui proposent encore les pourboires calculés sur le coût après taxe

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 !

The actual speakeasy wasn't open. The vibe at the restaurant portion is fine but nothing noteworthy. Great drinks though
