Le Jardin Nelson, housed in an historic building that dates back to 1812 in Montreal's Old Montreal, is known for its large, heated outdoor terrace. Le Jardin Nelson specializes in crepes, pizzas and salads but the crepes are the most popular. Enjoy live classical music during lunch and a jazz singer during the evenings on the terrace.
Reviews describe Jardin Nelson as a picturesque Old Montreal spot with a lush courtyard and a lively terrace, where live jazz and a warm, relaxed vibe elevate meals. The setting is repeatedly praised for its greenery and ambience, with heaters making outdoor dining comfortable even as crowds gather. Service is typically described as attentive and friendly, though some guests note slower pacing during busy times and occasional inconsistencies. Dishes receive mixed verdicts, with many praising seafood, duck, crepes, and cocktails, while a few meals feel overpriced or underwhelming. Overall the standout draw is the ambiance and musical atmosphere, with many recommending a visit to enjoy the vibe and come back to explore more of the menu.
Toujours aussi agréable année après année ! Je suis conquise depuis près de 30 ans! Excellent service, nourriture fraîche & un beau duo de musiciens, le midi. Le soir, l'ambiance y est enchanteresse avec un trio de musiciens & chanteur. Musique de style jazzée. Superbe terrasse ! Allez-y!
While service was genial & the music lovely, you feel like you are on a group tour. Lines to get in, lines once in, a menu like an Applebees. "Recommended " by all the tour guides - but I doubt they would go themselves
Comme toujours un moment mémorable! Tout tout tout est parfait nourriture ambiance & service. J'apporte à tous les ans une personne différente qui n'a pas encore découvert cet endroit enchanteu
Belle ambiance, bouffe correcte, service très rapide . Par contre réservation non nécessaire car nous avons dû quand même faire la file mène avec des réservations
Quel beau moment! Le décor est incroyable, le service chaleureux, à l'écoute, la nourriture parfaite & l'ambiance avec les musiciens c'est juste wow!! Mon endroit préféré à Montréal!
Toujours un plaisir de se retrouver au Jardin Nelson. Un plaisir total pour les sens: les fleurs, la musique, les boissons, la nourriture nous comblent de joie à chaque visite.
