Best Cocktail Bars in Plateau Mont-Royal

Great ambiance, great wine list and food was very good

Last weekend, my teenage kids and I took a trip to Montreal and had the pleasure of dining at WG on Friday evening. We made a reservation just an hour in advance and were delighted to be seated at a lovely table that offered a great view of the restaurant's vibrant atmosphere. It was the first time for my kids at WG, and it was fascinating to hear their fresh perspectives on every aspect of the experience—the food, the service, and the overall ambiance of the restaurant. To my relief, they were thoroughly impressed with everything. One of the things I appreciated was that the menu has remained almost unchanged for the past 18 years. This allowed me to guide them on what to order, sharing some of my long-time favorites. The food was nothing short of amazing, just as I remembered it from years ago. Each dish was fresh and flavorful, brimming with Mediterranean and Italian influences that made every bite memorable. The variety of options on the menu was impressive and catered to a range of tastes. The decor and atmosphere of the restaurant felt timeless, beautifully complementing the delicious food. The old Italian taverna style, warm tones, and inviting layout created an enjoyable dining environment. As for the service, it truly stood out during our visit. While I'm sure all the staff members are exemplary, our waiter, Brendan, was particularly exceptional. He was not only friendly and professional but also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He provided insightful recommendations regarding the ingredients and portion sizes, and he consistently checked in on us at just the right moments without being intrusive. Overall, it was a delightful experience that left a lasting impression on us all, and I can't wait to return to WG in the future.

Went to Deville last night and was incredibly impressed, not just by the food but particularly by the excellent service. My partner and I were ambivalent about what to get and our server, Ralph, suggested the beef knuckles as one of our starters and it was to die for! Also really enjoyed the chicken and waffles and arugula salad, and the portions were big so we left with doggy bags. Totally recommend.
