My son's birthday........tried to make a reservation for 5 people, but the online system would not allow us to. Tried to call, but we were told we could only make a reservation online, so I made a reservation for 4. Tried to explain the situation when we arrived, but the restaurant was unwilling to accommodate us, sending us away on a Saturday night!!

Five stars all the way through! I would give ten if I could. The atmosphere feels like you’re downtown, without having to worry about construction and parking. The food is simply fantastic. We had the sea bass and the burger and both were super tasty and cooked to perfection. And the service was even better! We had Sara as our server and she was super sweet, very efficient and knows her menu well. I came with my daughter and even though this is not really a kids place, she made her feel like a little princess. All mama’s reading this can appreciate that ;)

Deep in the heart of the West Island, off the St. Charles exit in Kirkland is a small strip mall which caches a secret surprise for those willing to travel the distance, Bistro Grace. A delightfully well appointed restaurant with old barn wood trim on the walls and an (mostly) open kitchen Grace has a relatively tight menu but I would have liked to try most of them.For our dinner we started with the Bread Service (delicious freshly baked brioche buns...yum!), and then the special of the day Celery Bisque (very good) and Citrus Salad (also very good). Our mains included the tasty Hamburger Grace (delicous with a very good sauce) and Med Sea Bass from the board (also excellent) ending with a Crispy Cherry Pie (very good...along the lines of a fast food deep fried hand held pie but much better).Service was very good and we were well taken care of...definitely worth the venture to this part of the West Island for an excellent meal. Enjoy!

Expensive for the food you get. I took the surlonge with fries and was not impressed by it. The service was good.

We highly recommend GRACE Bistro. Everything is just perfect! If you want to live an amazing culinary experience, you will be very pleased with your visit. And don't forget to consult their weekly blackboard on Facebook to see their specials.

We were seated right outside the kitchen, even though we made reservations ahead and asked for another table. Both our meals were barely lukewarm. My fish was delicious, but my husband's ravioli was a big disappointment. We feel it is rather overpriced for what was served.

We had great service. The waitresses were attentive and sweet. For food, we started with the crab cakes on apple slaw and they were very delicious! The 10oz sirloin steak was just ok but it had a nice sear though. For dessert, the key lime tart had a soft mushy crust. I would have preferred a crunchy crust, but the filling was nice. It was not too tangy nor too sweet. We also ordered the dark chocolate pot de crème which was amazing.

As usual, Chef Paolo outdid himself once again. My better half and I dined here Saturday night (Feb. 3rd, 2024) and, although a full house, everything was great -- as we've grown accustomed to expect. Specials offered every week, including new mixed drinks, as well as different varieties of oysters. The wild mushroom risotto (special of the day) was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. There's the sense of an attention to detail, with the focus on quality over quantity.(though, the portions are not small by any means) And the service was great as always. Shout out to Gwen, Jessica, Amanda and Sara. Gino & Pina

Fresh, delicious with excellent service! Wether you're looking for a place to go for date night or to celebrate with friends, Grace has the ambiance you're looking for! The weekly menu offers so many tantalizing dishes that it's hard to choose just one but while you're choosing definitely order the drink of the week! The bread service is a MUST as well as the salmon tartar - and the fries with malt mayo followed by banana cheesecake for dessert. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu- and the burger is the BEST!
Excellent selection of dishes. The ones we chose were first rate. We will certainly return in future.

Not our first time, nor be the last! Cozy neighborhood bistro perfect for a night out with 2/3 couples. Kudos to the chef ! Food is excellent and nicely presented Staff is outstanding! Charming, friendly and knowledgeable. Setting and music perfect for early evening older patrons like us Later becomes more lively. Happy to have found it.

One of, if not the best restaurant in the West Island because they are always consistent. We have been multiple times and service is great. The food is incredible, especially the salmon tartare. The mac'n'cheese and burger are amazing too. Must try!!!

Nourriture toujours excellente. Un très bon service avec des gens souriants et courtois. Le petit apéro de la semaine proposé par le bistro est toujours une belle découverte! Et le menu sur l'ardoise, qui change toutes les semaines, est aussi bon que recherché.

This was the second New Year's Eve dinner for my husband and myself. We loved it as much as last year ! The staff is super friendly and the food is amazing. The atmosphere is pleasant. It's a bit noisy but still doable.We plan to make it a tradition by returning again for New Year's Eve.
Horrible service!!
