On our map. We haven't walked through the door yet — here's why it's on the list.
Bistro and wine bar established on Fleury Ouest in 2012 by Maude Théroux-Séguin and Robert Herrera, following an earlier chapter on the Plateau built around privately imported wines. Head sommelier Louis-Jacques Bleau curates a list of more than a hundred private-import references; the beef tartare, steak frites and boudin, now helmed by chef Joshua Gaulin, are house staples.
Les Cavistes anchors a small restaurant group of the same name on Fleury Ouest, which also includes Cerise Café-Buvette and Chez Cécile Rôtisserie.
Les Cavistes is on the Regulars map — spotted, not yet visited. Our guides are written on foot, door by door, and no one pays to appear: when we walk through the door, this note will become a portrait. No points. No coupons. Standing is earned.
