a view of the city
Carolyn B.

Must reserve on Open Table, or expect to be turned away. Good city views, but this bar and restaurant does not merit all the hype.

Fraises de Mumbai and raspberry mojito

I came here with a friend for drinks/dinner and the incredible view and drinks were worth it! The rooftop has a gorgeous view of the skyline /downtown and the drinks menu is extensive with a full customizable mojito bar option. The raspberry mojito and fraises de Mumbai drinks were both excellent. Besides the beautiful view, the service here is incomparable! The servers Valentine and Tristan made my /my friend's night better than we imagined and were both incredibly helpful, attentive and friendly! I would highly recommend coming here for the excellent views, drinks /food and service!

Was by myself so I was able to eat at the bar but there were couples who walked up w/o reservation and sat at the bar as well. My bartender Mark was great even while he was making drinks for the tables. I wasn't that hungry but the burger was one of the best I've ever had! Oh plus the views were amazing!

Out of all the terraces that we have been to in Montreal, this place is hands down the best one! It is located in the Place D'armes Hotel, on the top floor. The view is absolutely breathtaking and drinks -- the strawberry sangria especially -- are so so so delish. I would recommend making a reservation or showing up at not so busy times as the spot is rather small and busy. The ambiance is very eclectic and you get to see Notre Dame while sipping and eating. Try their poutine and cheese board if you have a chance!

Pretty limited drink selection. Could have given us better seats then at the bar. Three great tables empty the whole time we were there. Staff were great though.

Rooftop view

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Decor & Style: 5/5 5 stars based on the view alone! Beer selection was not the best but it was good enough for me to enjoy (I miss my Oklahoman craft beers!). We tried the cheese/meat dish and tasted exactly as expected, not amazing but good. I don't think there is a better view in the city (rooftop bar wise). Menu items were pricey, but that doesn't concern me because I know i'm paying for the decor and high rent space!

Definitely a nice rooftop bar. The cocktail list is well done and well executed, some creative cocktails including the green apple cucumber Gin- my favorite. A variety of Mojito's and they will customize. Drinks are not cheap- I would say $12-$15 a pop. But if you're looking for a cool place to hang out for a few cocktails the service is good, the view better, and the cocktails are pretty well-made.

While vacationing, my boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place when we were walking back from dinner. We noticed the view and had to go check it out. At the time, they were full, but William went out of his way to make space for us! He was so welcoming! The view was gorgeous, and the service was fantastic. Our server Alfonso was both friendly and attentive. We ordered the Crème Brûlée (highly recommend!), and it was such a delightful experience, we came back the next two nights for dessert and cocktails! Love the ambiance and the wonderful servers. On the third night, it was raining, so they couldn't serve us upstairs but they assured us in their downstairs restaurant we could order the crème brûlée. While downstairs, Alfonso, our server from the previous night, spotted us and came over to check on us and see how our experience was going. All in all, a lovely experience and a beautiful taste of what makes Montreal so magical.

Let me start by saying that I didn't have food at this restaurant and so the review is based solely on the cocktails and the view. The 1st drink (as see on the photo) was not the best - they all sound so great on the menu but don't actually have a distinct taste. As for the view, I was quite impressed! The reason this place gets 3 stars is that the terrace ended up closing quite early (like 9:00PM) based on the fact that there weren't enough clients. Quite disappointing as we had arrived at 7:30 so it cut our night quite short. Other than that, the service was impeccable and would recommend on a nice sunny afternoon.

Great nighttime view at the Terrasse Place d'Armes

I visited this bar for late night drinks with friends after a full day of attending a conference for work. It was the perfect place to unwind. We had a great view of the city and the cocktails were great. We only wished they were open a bit later. They closed at midnight and they started turning off the lights and shutting things down around 11:50. It was a Sunday night, but on a warm summer evening we would have loved to stay longer.

Tartine A L'avocat

I think they've had a bad rap. 4 stars for the view alone - overlooking the Notre-Dame cathedral plaza and broad vistas of downtown Montreal. The service was good. My Tartine was great and very reasonably priced. Worst part was trying to figure out how to get in - hard to find !

Sangria
Laura R.

I came here to enjoy the drinks and the awesome view!! It's a bit pricey but worth it for the experience or for a special night out !! The sangrias are so good.

This place has such a datey datey vibe. It'll totally motivate you to find someone so you can take him/her here out on a date. It's on the rooftop of a hotel and overlooks the city of Montreal. If you're seated at a table facing the West, you have this gorgeous view of the sunset also. They also have an extensive choice of mojitos and selection of cocktails. Their cheeseboards look pretty damn awesome too. Whether it's a fun get together with friends or a romantic date, this place hits the jackpot when it comes to ambiance. Another side note: there's a DJ. Bonus! My only complaint would probably be the amount of bugs this place attracts. It can be distracting sometimes but it cracked up a few jokes also.

Sangria, Sunshine and Cured Meats!

This place owes me nothing!…read more The 2000s throwback party was like a blast from the past. i was coming in from out of town (mini vacation) and the wonderful bartender informed me there would be a party around 10 and it would go until 3am. She suggested 'Bar Pamplemousse' for dinner and a cocktail and i am glad i made the stop. when i get back this place is in full 2000s RAVE decorations. take me back! They were so kind and the drinks were poppin'! i ended up staying out with the locals and having a great night. I ended up in the Village at karaoke! all i can say is the prices were not issue. the staff were lively and fun! this was all out of the blue on a Monday night and i was treated like royalty! **It didn't hurt i was like to the only person there was alive in 2004* lol! thank you for an amazing kick off! pro tips: you have to pay as you go there are no tabs. they take a card and will convert the dollars tips are tips! park across the block it's a short walk take a ride service... the drinks are strong AF! ultra pro tip: bring an umbrella #iykyk

We got seated in the lounge area and I ordered a dirty martini to start. Our server, Christine was so nice and I enjoyed chatting with her. I also ordered a negroni which was very good. They had a DJ arrive at one point who was playing a bit of like easy house music - you know the kind that sounds like one long song and has no words? It added to the vibes and I enjoyed it. Would definitely return and think it's a solid spot to go out for cocktails that is a little more festive than a chill bar.

And it's unclaimed here on Yelp. We found it by searching for cocktail bars on Google. Place was busy both nights we were there though! This became our after dinner drink spot for the weekend. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful, and actually looked like they enjoyed their jobs as they helped contribute to the fun relaxed atmosphere. Drinks were creative and delicious. Music they play is the typical chill/lounge/downtempo/electronic where after a while it all sounds the same, but it's perfect for the ambiance and it's not too loud. Drink menu is only available through the web site, which is annoying (to me), but easy enough to overlook.

THIS WAS AMAZING…read more food here was flawless, every dish was absolutely perfect and creative. the ingredients are top shelf quality and put together with tons of care. I had the most amazing meal here. Genuinely the BEST beef tartare i've ever had in my life, it was chopped perfectly and flavor wise just absolute perfection. Rich, cheesy but still fresh and the beef flavor was present and well seasoned. Focaccia was great as well, the grill flavor really stuck with me and was a perfect touch of crunch and flavor. I enjoyed my leeks as well, i've never had them prepared this way so it was a unique touch. Their cocktails were good with some nice twists on classics, I got the oolong old fashion which was a pretty classic old fashion with a slight tea after taste. the highlight of the meal though was the desert . it was brûlée bananas with a chocolate cheesecake and omg that was the best touch to the meal ever. we got the wine pairing with it as well and they went together like bread and butter. the wine was sweet but had a fruitier taste to counteract the richness of the banana and chocolate. it was the most delightful experience and wasn't a bank breaker either. service here was attentive and amazing, extremely friendly and informative. the ambiance was on the fancier side, with darker lighting. during my time in montreal, this restaurant easily took home my favorite.

I was really excited to try Cadet because it was a Michelin recommended restaurant but…read moreunfortunately the food was not as expected. The restaurant had a vibrant vibe and minimalist. The service was friendly but they seemed short staffed that night. We were trying to refill our water glasses but it took a while since I couldn't find any waiter or waitress around. Now let's start with the food: Focaccia: 5/5 bread was warm, toasty and tasty but the dip was the highlight Leeks with smoked mackerel, mustard, tobikko: (2.5/5) too creamy with a hint of mackerel and leeks Calamari chou-fleur, asian pear, chili beurre blanc: (2/5) very soupy and too much cream and not flavorful Black cod miso sauce, daikon, kale: (2.5/5) cod was tender but my bite had too much miso on it. It was extremely salty and not well balanced Beef tartare with mushrooms, Asiago: (1/5) mushy texture and way too much Asiago cheese. Flank steak with burnt chili salsa, szechuan pepper sauce, pickled peppers: (2/5) steak was not tender at all and the sauce was overwhelming Fried sea bass with bok choy, soya, nuoc mam (3/5): presentation was great but too many bones with too little meat. Flavor was good and I enjoyed the warm crispy fish with the Vietnamese style salad Overall, my special dinner was disappointing. I felt like the main ingredient never shined and their cheese or cream or sauce were just too overpowering. I really wanted to like Cadet but it fell short of my expectations.
