The verdict

Ranked on both the Canadian and North American best-bars lists in 2026, from the team behind The Coldroom and Bisou Bisou. Go for the bottled negronis, a vermouth or amaro, and the shareable mortadella pistachio pizza. The catch for this trip: it is closed Mondays, so Thanksgiving night is out. Aim for Tuesday to Thursday.

Large patio per Canada's 100 Best (weather permitting)

Why maybeStrong credentials and good fit, but closed Monday Oct 12 and booking method and menu prices unverified; fine for Tue-Thu.

How much we'll spend

$$$$

Menu is published as an image and could not be read, so no prices verified. Tier is a rough estimate for a couple of cocktails and a shared pizza.

Our estimate from posted prices, CAD, before tax and tip. Québec purchases carry the 5% federal GST plus the 9.975% Québec Sales Tax (QST, TVQ in French): 14.975% combined on taxable items. Tourisme Montréal: it is customary to tip restaurant servers, taxi drivers and hairdressers 15% of the bill, before taxes. Bellhops, porters and doormen generally get at least $2 per bag or service; coffee and food counters often have a tip cup by the register.
