Best Market Cuisine Restaurants in Rosemont/ Petite Patrie

Lovely restaurant. We were there on a very cold day and coming from the outside into a warm, cozy, modern place felt amazing. We were offered a coat check, which was mind blowing for an American. We had reservations and we were seated right away , nice little table by the window. The restaurant was busy, lots of people enjoying themselves sipping wine and having conversations, so it was noisy, but in a good way. Our waitress was really attentive and pleasant. Food was great. I tried the bone marrow pasta, tasted delicious, but too much for me, and portion wise and “ too fatty “, in a good way though, I took it to go. My son really enjoyed it later. He also loved his NY steak. Amazing experience. I would totally come back and recommend.

The main entrance of the restaurent brings a lot of cold draft in when someone gets in or out. The satelite radio is a major downer of ambiance, especially with the commercials between songs. Food is amazing, service was OK but we felt like we were bothering or that we came in too late. Might be just me, but I had a bad vibe.

We decided last minute to rebook our reservation after learning it was out of the downtown area of Montreal and I am SO happy we went! The depth of layers of each dish was phenomenal. They even had my favorite, sweetbreads! I will definitely be back next time I’m in Montreal!

Bungalow has essentially a classic bistro menu with some updates. Fried calamari with salad was an excellent appetizer for two people to share. It seemed fresh and well-prepared. Mains of steak (cooked exactly as requested) and navarin d'agneau (underseasoned) were perfectly fine withoug being at all distinctive. In short, exactly what I usually want from a bistro: a predictable meal of good quality ingredients, classically prepared with no surprises. On the night we were there, it was not at all crowded, so noise level was fine. But we could easily hear the conversation of a table at the other end of the restaurant, so I imagine it might be noisy when full.
