While visiting Montreal and my family's cousin we had a little family gathering at Brasserie Bernard. I was a little worried by the 2 reviews on Yelp but our hosts had been to Brasserie Bernard previously and enjoyed their experience.
Brasserie Bernard is in in the Outremont section of Montreal. It was an easy 10-15 minute Uber ride from our hotel near Old Montreal.
The restaurant is a beautiful French-inspired bistro. It really reminded me of Paris. It was a pleasant June evening and the windows were open and they had tables outside available.
The food we had on this night was excellent. The dishes our party of 6 chose were the Muscles, the Duck Confit, Beef Tartar and the Fried Calamari. The Duck Confit was excellent and the came with an arugula salad. The muscle dish was very big and the leek and cheddar broth was very tasty. The fries were good too. The calamari was crispy and tender.
We had a few great desserts but the standout was the Pudding chomeur with maple syrup, Wow that was good.
The service all night was great and the staff was very friendly, the meal for 6 people including taxes and tips with a few beers was around $USD195.00. This was reasonable for a restaurant of this quality and charm.
