The food & atmosphere at Celeste were outstanding! My husband & I had the carpaccio appetizer, & we shared the branzino as it was a large dish. Everything was flavorful, & the branzino was especially nice as it was a delicious dish. We celebrated a special occasion & were brought a very nice dessert! Thank you so much for making the evening such a memorable occasion. We will definitely return & would certainly recommend!
Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious, but what truly made our visit unforgettable was the service. It was beyond exceptional-friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming from start to finish. The staff went above & beyond to make us feel taken care of. You can tell they truly care about their customers. We'll definitely be coming back & highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food & outstanding service. 5 stars!
Wonderful, new (last Nov) restaurant. My wife & I visited last week & had a great time. The restaurant is just beautful & has a real Modern feel to it. Lots of light from the windows, cool ceilings & a nice bar area. Service was impeccable & the food was very good.
A manager came over after dinner to see if there was anything that we needed. 'Well, do you have tiramisu?' She replied no, but immediately told me they would make one for me in their bakery. 10 min later, an extremely classic, tasty tiramisu made it to our table. Merci! Just over the top.
Highly recommend reservations & by the time we left at 8pm, the place was absolutely packed.

Sadly we had a really bad experience here. We came for a bachelorette that had been booked for weeks, we had to wait 20 minutes to be sat. We were not offered a drink or anything while waiting. Upon seating the restaurant was so loud we couldn't even talk to each other across the table only those beside us. Our server didn't even greet us when she came to the table just asked for our drink order & food order. Food tasted good but truly it was overpriced, $70 before tip for a pasta & small veggie side, no drinks, no appetizer. The price is unjustified with the poor standard of service. Nice ambience but that's all this place has, good looks.
The food was amazing, the pub had a great atmosphere, & our server, Anthony, was the best. He was friendly, attentive, & made our experience even better. Highly recommended!
Première visite avec des amies, je n'avais pas trop d'attentes n'ayant pas entendu parler de ce restaurant avant. Le menu, tout ce qu'on a partagé était exquis. La présentation, la portion, & surtout les saveurs. Tout y était. Le service était attentionné, discret & sympathique. Sans pression, les reccos de notre serveur sur la carte étaient à point! Le restaurant est spacieux, lumineux & agréable. J'y retournerai & je recommande vivement, belle adresse au centre-ville.
Amazing new restaurant downtown montreal. From the refreshing decor to RJ's great hospitality to the very tasty food , it was an overall great experience & I would 100% recommend 🔥🔥
Once once you enter the restaurant you get greeted by the really sweetest host ever. The restaurant is really nicely done it's gorgeous & the stock is also super nice & very sweet. They always make sure that everything is OK. The food was really delicious. I had the cannelloni pasta while my aunt had the mushroom pasta. We also took appetizers like calamari & the raw tuna. The calamari is really good same as the raw tuna & I really love the touch of sweetness that was inside. I'm not really a fan of cake but as dessert I took the chocolate cake & it was the most delicious chocolate cake I have ever tasted. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want a really nice time it's also kind of pricey, but the food makes up for it definitely will be coming back!
