Review Summary

Jardin Nelson is widely celebrated for its enchanting atmosphere, featuring a beautiful garden courtyard, vibrant greenery, and consistent live jazz performances that create a truly magical dining experience in Old Montreal. While many guests praise the diverse menu and highlight standout dishes like the crepes, ribs, and seafood, others find the food quality inconsistent, sometimes describing it as ordinary or overpriced. Service experiences vary significantly, ranging from highly professional and attentive to occasional delays, yet the restaurant remains a popular destination for its unique, romantic, and lively setting that consistently draws both locals and tourists year after year.

Arrived around 5 on a weeknight & were seated in the garden with no wait. Food was solid. Crepes were heartier than what you might find in a traditional crepe joint. We were satisfied with our choices of smoked meat & seafood crepes. Our server's shift ended in the middle of the meal, so we were there a little longer than expected. Bonus--the delay extended our stay into the live jazz! So we ordered the maple creme brulee & some dessert coffee.

Our second time here.It was a very busy weekend so instead of lining up at the front we opted for the terrace. There was literally no wait for the terrace & you still get the same food/music as sitting inside. Great place for a good meal or just some quick bites before catching a show at the Cirque du Solei. The duck confit putine we ordered was delicious.

Food was good, the restaurant itself is neat. Nice patio, with light jazz playing in the background by a live band.

Bonnes pizzas mais la sangria c'est comme du jus. Elle goûte comme si ya pas une goute de vin dedans.
