Nice ambience, good service, very nice restaurant too. But unfortunately food not good for the price, they need to change chef maybe. We had a steak the ribeye for its high price it not worth it at all, sea bass Tatar fresh but not tasty, ravioli was good. Maybe a bad night. Hope they wake up & up the level of the food!!!

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.

The service & atmosphere was amazing.
Appetizers & pasta was very good.
I am disappointed however with the cowgirl steak we ordered. It was $140 & it came cold, when we told the waitress, it was returned to the kitchen to be reheated , & then returned over cooked & flavourless. For a cut of $140 I expected much better. We told the waitress that we didn't like the steak , & we were offered shots , that we didn't want. I would have appreciated a better response.

Would not return. I tried several dishes from Celeste. The steak was disappointing, they serve you 6 small slices of meat & nothing else for $75. Not even a cup of fries.. the meat was bland & flavourless. The prices are steeeep. Cocktails are $26 a person. You are looking at $150 a person easily if you select an appetizer & main dish. The decor is cute, but the prices do not match the quality of the food. Do not see this place lasting

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
