" I tried Brasserie Bernard during a family gathering and had a great time! The atmosphere was festive and bright. We shared multiple plates to sample different dishes—highlights included the tartare and an excellent chocolate mousse for dessert. The only negative was that we felt a bit rushed, but the overall experience was positive, and the staff were lovely. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Brasserie Bernard for a family dinner, and we had a great time. The environment was inviting, and our server was attentive. I ordered the veal, and it was delicious, but it could have had a bit more seasoning. Everyone enjoyed their meals, overall a nice place. I would probably come back again since I heard their brunch is wonderful. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Brasserie Bernard for the first time recently and was charmed by the cozy setting. The food was quite good, with a standout dish being the veal ravioli. However, I did feel the portion sizes were on the smaller side compared to similar restaurants in the area. The service is prompt though, which is a plus. It might not be the best in terms of value, but I'd stop by again for the atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to the hype. I found the menu to be slightly uninspired and the execution even more disappointing. The clams in the marinière sauce were just average, and I expected something more vibrant. Cocktails were nice but didn't seem to justify the prices. While the service was courteous, the food didn't impress at all. I likely won't return but appreciate the attention the staff provided. " (*Curated Review*)

" While my first visit to Brasserie Bernard was pleasant, I found that the food did not wow me as much as I expected based on the reviews. The steak was well-cooked, but the flavors were rather mild and not very memorable. Service was efficient but lacked the warmth I had hoped for. The ambiance is appealing, but I think they need to diversify their menu with more exciting options. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Brasserie Bernard was such a pleasure! The presentation of the dishes was delightful, and I was particularly fond of the aubergine tart. It’s refreshing to see such attention paid to the aesthetic of food while not compromising on taste. The service was friendly, and the restaurant has certainly earned its reputation over the years as a top spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem in the heart of Montreal! Brasserie Bernard exceeded my expectations with its delightful food and charming atmosphere. I had the moules Marinières with fresh bread, and I couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. Service was prompt and friendly, making the evening even more special. I’m looking forward to bringing my family here next time. " (*Curated Review*)
