Celeste is the newest restaurant from the team behind Beatrice & Estelle, & they have created another standout destination in Montreal. The atmosphere is vibrant & energetic. It's the kind of place to see & be seen, with spectacular interior design & beautifully curated furnishings that make the space feel as memorable as the meal.

We were a group of five, including two vegetarians, & everyone had plenty of excellent options to choose from, whether pasta, fish, steak or vegetarian dishes. The menu offers enough variety to satisfy different tastes without losing its identity.

Celeste is more than just dinner. It's an experience & the kind of restaurant that turns an evening out into a memorable occasion.

Celeste is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. The space is absolutely beautiful, elegant, & full of the best energy. Every detail feels thoughtfully curated.
The food is always incredible, my favourite has to be the branzino tartare & the fungi pasta!! The cocktails are delicious I go for a negroni, & the service made the whole experience feel effortless. It's one of those places that feels special the moment you walk in. If you're looking for amazing food, elevated vibes, & a memorable night out, Celeste is a must. Already looking forward to my next visit. ✨

Had such an amazing experience at Celeste!
From the moment we walked in, everything felt elegant, welcoming, & high quality. The atmosphere was beautiful, the service was attentive, & the food honestly exceeded my expectations. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, & made with so much care. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite.

Tbh, the prices are definitely on the higher side, but after trying the food, I can honestly say it's worth it for the experience & quality you get. Sometimes you pay more for average food, but this place truly delivers. Everything we ordered was delicious & satisfying without feeling heavy.

The presentation, the flavors, & the overall vibe made the whole dinner feel special.
It's one of those restaurants that leaves you already thinking about what you want to order next time before even leaving.
Definitely coming back for more & can't wait to try more dishes from the menu!

One of the most beautiful dining experiences in Montreal right now.
The space is unreal: elegant, warm, almost cinematic.
Food is refined but still comforting, & the service just elevates everything.
You don't just go to Celeste to eat, you go for the full experience. Definitely a must.

Celeste absolutely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk in, the energy is undeniable - a vibrant crowd, stunning ambiance, & a room full of beautiful people that instantly makes the experience feel special. The music sets the tone perfectly: upbeat, stylish, & immersive without taking away from the overall vibe… though depending on where you're seated, it can get a little loud at times.
The food is genuinely impressive. Every dish feels thoughtfully crafted, with bold flavors & high-quality ingredients that make it clear why this place gets so much attention. It's not just a'scene' - the kitchen absolutely delivers.
That said, this isn't a place to rush. Service & pacing lean more toward a relaxed, social dining experience, so you'll want to come in with the mindset of enjoying the moment rather than eating quickly & leaving. It's more about the full experience - the people, the music, the atmosphere - than just the meal itself.
Overall, Celeste is 100% worth the hype. Go for the vibe, stay for the food, & take your time soaking it all in.
