A magical evening in Old Montreal at Jardin Nelson. The outdoor garden in absolutely stunning with so many beautiful flowers & plants. The jazz performed while dining was so enjoyable. The food was amazing ... terrific presentation & sublime flavour. &, the menu options are plentiful. The service is extraordinary ... it is obvious that the team is well trained & very efficient. A special thanks to our server, Milan - her welcoming smile & cheerful attitude made our experience at Jardin Nelson memorable.

La crêpe forestière aux champignons est très bonne ainsi que le Pina Colada. Terrasse agréable & musicien à partir de 18h00. & pour finir un bon service sur une belle terrasse.

The ambiance was nice! I sat outside. Now, the food was underwhelming & overpriced. I ate the lobster roll.(40$) It was salad or fries. I took the salad & I wish it had more garnish like; cranberries, apples, nuts, & seeds. For the lobster, it was bland. Maybe 2 lobster rolls with salad &/or a bit of fries for 40$ or cut the price a bit...
