Absolutely wonderful experience coming for lunch yesterday. Our server Paloma was exceptional and provided perfect menu suggestions and wine pairings. Each dish was excellent, plated beautifully and each bite was delicious. Hats off to the chefs. It made the birthday celebrations all the more special. Worth every penny. Highly recommend.

Delicious food and drinks, the atmosphere was also very enjoyable. The restaurant itself is small which makes it a much more intimate and enjoyable experience.

After reading & hearing so many outstanding reviews for this restaurant, I had high expectations going in. However, I didn't love my experience, and will likely not be back. To start, our waiter was lovely, but relatively absent throughout the evening. I'm not sure if they were short-staffed that night, but the restaurant was only about 60% full and we had difficulty flagging our waiter down. The salted caramel espresso martini I had was amazing, but unfortunately the rest of the food that followed was lackluster. We ordered the arugula salad, truffle fries, and octopus to start - everything was simply 'ok' - except for the octopus which was inedible and covered in some sort of congealed fat. The restaurant kindly covered 50% of the dish because they noticed we hadn't touched it, which was super appreciated! For our mains, I ordered the Gamberi Fra'Diavolo (spicy shrimp and spaghetti) and my fiancé ordered the pasta with lamb meat sauce, and both were solid, but we had to wait over 1.5 hours to receive our dishes. Again, the restaurant was not even close to capacity, and not once did our server come by and acknowledge the wait time. By the time we finished our mains, we just wanted to leave and not risk ordering dessert/coffee for fear of how long it would take. I wish we had had a more positive experience to report, but for the price - we did not find the service/food adequate. Maybe the restaurant was just having an off night, but there are no shortage of amazing Italian spots in Montreal which we would recommend instead of Bis!

We had a delicious meal and wonderful service from Partha. Great wine recommendation and food was amazing. We had seafood risotto, veal and carbonara. Would highly recommend for authentic Italian.

I was very disappointed, and embarrassed, in how one of our guests was treated. When he ordered a salad which was all he wanted to eat, the waiter told him that was not acceptable and he would have to order another dish as well. This kind of attitude is unacceptable when serving a table of 6 and everyone is ordering their meals (most with appetizers and main courses) along with cocktails.

Food was really good, service was great but slightly slow, very quiet & easy to talk, almost too quiet lol, tables were close so you can hear other peoples’ conversations. Would recommend.
