deville dinerbar

omg what a rip off! deville food was terrible and tasteless. i ordered a hamburger that was dry and tasteless. the best part was the pare which on its own was good but buried in that crummy burger it was lost covered by the flavorless bunn. the server only brought me a small dish of ketchup, not a full bottle. the dry burger needed a lot of ketchup just so i could swallow it. i have a shake which wmas beautiful bit again thin for the money. i will not go again.

great concept! will be back. had been thinking of visiting this place for a while. read the reviews on this concept, and most of them were more then positive.note!!!!!!!( do not take the review of someone that has only one (1)review, they are usually malicious, probably a fired employee..lol)

now if you have read my prior reviews you will see that if i get quality food i will never complain about the price.
i was there on sunday night with 2 friends. my so-called picky eaters. we all started off with a cocktail. i had the sweet craig that was awesome. my friends went anti- alcohol and took milkshakes instead. one was a chips ahoy milkshake and she loved it.
for appetizers we had ahi tuna tacos.... they fall apart because of the fried wonton... but they were great. too bad only one each.. ( three in the plate). we also had the baked mac n cheese, a sweet variation , but even the picky eaters next to me gave it 2 thumbs up! we also had the philly cheese steak spring rolls....very impressed. probably liked them more than the other 2 apps and wanted to order more but had to leave room for the main event.
my main course was the adam's beef ribs... i am an aficionado of ribs be it pork or beef... conclusion!!! 9.5/10.
even the coleslaw was very good. my friends went with the maple glazed chicken with fire roasted poblano rice.. to my surprise they loved it too.
for dessert we tried the beignets the server recommended and they were unbelievable. ( i have been to new orleans and they are famous for beignets, and these where on par).
overall, loved the ambience, server was very courteous, and food was great.
will be back very soon.
my new summer hotspot
p.s. yes the final amount on the bill was high. but to all those that complain, hear this: the price is on the menu, if you find it high $ dont order so much, and if you can't count bring a calculator before it gets to high. they are not hiding the prices...lol

deville deception. finally made it to deville dinerbar. so much hype on here i had to see it for myself.
i went with two friends, upon arrival we all noticed how the place stood out on the street, beautiful sign and nice exterior decor. once inside we greeted by a friendly hostess and the trend and decor dazzled. visually stunning, fun atmosphere and solid concept. except for the music that did not match at all.
we were then seated in a booth, which we found somewhat cramped. i suppose they only want thin supermodels as clients... then given a beautifully crafted menu, slightly long in dimension and was a battle to open it and read it properly in these cramped conditions. minor detail yes, but part of the overall dining experience nonetheless.
our waitress was beautiful, promt and courteous, offering drinks and answering our menu questions but not more then that, no personality, slightly boring; just doing her job. deception part one.
the menu. well it's beautiful. it's inviting and promises all sorts of wonderful surprises. and at the prices they have posted in it, you would assume that these are going to be magnificent! deception part two.
we ordered the "ahi tuna taco" and "southern fried buttermilk chicken crispers". cool names. you'll notice that throughout the menu. cool names that don't live up to what you get. nor the price. three slivers of tuna, some micro herbs and a mayo dipping sauce;$16. failed kfc fried 'chicken', cheap saltwater pumped chicken, definitely a frozen product, on a mircowave heated waffle. drenched in a maple sauce. hope you like sweet. i wasn't sure if i was eating an app or a dessert. i forget the price, but i assure you, it was about the same as your rent. no longer deception, this is reality.
then the mains. our waitress insisted that they can only do well done burgers. very suspicious. apparently its a law in qc. and to think i've been eating beef tartar all this time... premade, frozen patties for sure. fries were like mcd's but skinnier, but with equal amount of cardboard taste and texture. beef brisket was tender but tastless(s+p means salt and pepper in the recipe book guys), bread, ??? burgers with sliced bread? i won't comment but there was a certain look of disappointment on my friends face upon seeing that. and the prices...
$165 for five drinks, two apps and three burgers. wtf? listen, it wasn't horrible but for the price, it was utter disappointment and a feeling of being blatantly ripped off. we would of tried dessert but had no more money at this point. will i go back? no. will i recommend it? no. unless you have cash to throw away on sub par food and are easily dazzled by shiny things.nice place tho... but not more then that, don't fall for the smoke and mirrors.

another great business lunch. was there again for a business lunch, the food and service was amazing
had the tuna tacos as an entree and the general tao chicken salad as my main, both were delicious

my burger wasn't what i was expecting. i thought it would be a boneless rib on a burger bun. nope, it was the rib and a burger. oh wait, no, a double burger! much too ginormous for me to eat gracefully, but i have never been very graceful, so why start now?

we had a mostly pleasant meal at deville and achieved keeping our bill relatively low by both opting for sandwiches but it wouldn't be honest to overlook the fact that the price point of many of their other dishes put them in direct competition with some pretty big players on our city's restaurant scene. this is a consideration they might want to keep in mind, the last thing they want is people driving home, looking at the bill and saying "yeah it was good, but for the same price we could've eaten at _______".

try the appetizers. went to deville on the recommendation of a friend. although it was busy, it was well worth the wait. had a delicious daiquiri while i waited.

i think next time i go i will be just ordering off the appetizer menu. the choices are so interesting. we had the macaroni wontons and they were amazing.

i was satisfied with my choice of the deville burger. my friends were happy with the veggie burger and prime rib.

the menu says the fries are made in peanut oil but this is no longer true (my friend has a peanut allergy).

i could hardly finish my burger and barely touched the fries before i could no longer eat another bite. the portions are very large.

crazy menu, but the food's novelty outweighs the quality... fun to try, not a place to go to regularly.

deville presents itself as a modern twist on a 1950’s american diner; adding immaculate interior decor, delicious gourmet comfort food and an impeccable ambiance to the mix. the service was excellent (our bartender/waiter jonathan was exceptional) and the food far surpassed my expectations. most notable - the ahi tuna tacos, which were just such a delightful surprise to the pa

ahi tuna tacos. phenomenal appetizer!

nice concept. my first reaction when i heard about this place opening was "why didn't i think of that?!" i adore the concept! the look is great, the music doesn't fit the look at all. the menu is decent, great cocktail choices and the staff is very friendly. the food is good but not great. the fried pickles are not like the authentic ones you get in memphis (they're gross, don't order them!) i will go back for the cocktails and fun decor - i really hope they decide to make the music more fitting of the decor (and less obnoxious)! i would be a regular if they took care of the music and revisited the food prep. the menu choices are good, but the food isn't consistently good. i want this place to succeed so bad! it's such a great idea for a concept!

very good bang for your buck. not cheap, but you will definitely not be hungry when you leave. the cirque burger was better than i expected and i also enjoyed the fried pickles and onion block

deville dinerbar definitely has some very creative menu items, and for the most part, they do deliver quite well. there were some moments when i felt that the food was a bit dry and heavy, but the style is american diner cooking, after all. and beware: you'll definitely leave the restaurant feeling like the michelin tire man, because that's how they roll in american diners.

while a part of deville’s concept is a throwback to the 1950’s, the real idea is to be able to fantasize an old diner’s transformation into present times, a 21st century makeover redefining the classic diner into something new and refreshing, yet still having the ability to allure people to a truly beloved and nostalgic era. while they do feature a jukebox, they allow you to download an app on your iphone specifically designed for deville and choose the music that’s played in the restaurant – a pretty neat idea that is sure to impress a crowd. equally as impressive is the pink neon lights that permeate the interior, creating a theme that goes as far as influencing the tablemats. the décor is very stylish, with chandelier inspired lights and semi circular black and white booths that give it a nice edge and make it a comfortable place to enjoy the food.

highly recommend this place to all craving good food. can't wait for the spring time to be out on that beautiful terrasse in the back. see you this week again bringing my crew from the studio!
