Amazing jazz & vibes, but the food is just okay! Jardin Nelson has an absolutely beautiful hidden courtyard with an incredible atmosphere. It was crowded & lively, & the live jazz show was fantastic! They also have a huge selection of great drinks & specialty coffees.
I tried a main (the Montreal Smoked Meat) & a dessert, but the food was just ordinary & not very impressive for the price.
Verdict: 10/10 for the music & ambiance! Highly recommend coming here to grab a drink, listen to the jazz, & enjoy the beautiful setup, but keep your expectations baseline for the food.

Jardin Nelson is a gorgeous little oasis set back from Nelson Square in Old Montreal. It offers great food, a lively garden terrace (the garden terrace is protected by enormous umbrellas which are a sight in their own right). It has a calm vibe that makes every meal feel special. When we visited there was wonderful live music which only added to the atmosphere.

We were in Montreal for five nights & visited Jardin Nelson four times for lunch or dinner. Live jazz all the time in a lovely garden setting.
