Review Summary

Reviews collectively describe Celeste as a stunning, inviting dining room with beautiful décor, a warm, attentive staff, and a vibe that blends refined elegance with comfort. The food is consistently praised for freshness and flavor, with highlights such as cannelloni, mushroom pasta, branzino tartar, calamari, and raw tuna, along with a standout stracciatella salad, cowgirl cut steak, and crispy duck fat potatoes; desserts like a chocolate cake are repeatedly cited as exceptional. Drinks, including red wine from Puglia and espresso martinis, are noted as well balanced, and the bread is described as amazingly fresh. While the restaurant is seen as on the pricier side, many feel the quality, presentation, and service make the experience worthwhile, making it a popular choice for special occasions, date nights, or lively evenings with friends. The atmosphere and staff are consistently described as top notch, with guests leaving eager to return to Celeste for another memorable night out.

Tried the new restaurant Celeste in Montreal & had a really fun night. The ambiance is beautiful & the food was very good.
We shared everything, which made it even more enjoyable. We started with amazingly fresh bread. We had the stracciatella salad with fig dressing, the cowgirl cut steak cooked perfectly, & crispy duck fat potatoes that were so good. Dessert was yummy, & we enjoyed a nice red wine from Puglia.
Overall, a really nice night out

Celeste is one of those places that makes a night out with friends memorable. You'll remember where you sat & what you ate because the experience leaves a mark. From the moment you walk in, you'll notice the beautiful decor, the perfect lighting, the open, clean kitchen & smiling staff. Our waiter was funny & attentive & made wonderful suggestions. We ordered a good portion of the menu between 5 of us so we could taste everything & not a single dish was less than delectable. We were fighting over the branzino tartare & we ordered 2! Even the wine was perfect. The owners were very present & ensured that every patron was satisfied & taken care of. The head chef, Michael, who we discovered from his adjoining restaurant, Amea, ensured that our dishes were everything we hoped for. Everything he makes is a guaranteed delight. We will absolutely be back many times over. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant. Come hungry!

Had a great experience at Celeste. The decor & ambiance is beyond beautiful. I had an espresso martini to start & it was perfect. We shared several salads & appetizers & all was delicious. The star salad was the lobster one. Pastas & fish were also great. Will definitely return!!

Celeste is absolutely stunning. The design is flawless & you truly feel transported somewhere else the moment you walk in.

The service was incredible from start to finish. Every staff member was so warm, friendly, & genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. They gave excellent recommendations & made the whole experience feel relaxed & special.

The food was beyond delicious, incredibly fresh, high quality, & beautifully prepared. I especially appreciated the great gluten-free & vegan options. Such a gorgeous spot for a special night out, a celebratory dinner, or just a beautiful evening with friends. Can't wait to come back!
