Bistrot La Fabrique

Joe Beef’s Little Italy Wine Bar Earns Glowing First Review | Eater Montreal

"With a rustic décor of wooden accents and an open central kitchen where guests can watch the chefs, I find La Fabrique’s slightly elevated French bistro cooking hearty and earthy even nine years on: a pea soup with cream and maple is deeply tasty, and inventive touches like a potato salad with marinated mackerel are admirable. Some plates can feel heavy—foie gras ravioli with fried sweetbreads, for example—but overall I approve of the creative, tasty approach and the convivial presentation; patrons are invited to bring their own wine and beer." - Tim Forster
