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.

Heureusement que la terrasse, la décoration & le groupe live étaient agréables, sinon payer plus de 100 $ pour une nourriture qui laisse à désirer est très décevant. Nous avons pris le Mac & cheese aux fruits de mer, qui était décrit dans le menu comme un mélange riche & réconfortant de fruits de mer, mais finalement, c'était des pâtes au fromage dans lesquelles on trouve une quantité médiocre d'une seule sorte de fruit de mer. Le plat était tellement salé que nous n'avons pas pu en finir même la moitié. Nous avons aussi pris la lasagne de légumes au gratin & le goût était moyen. Ces deux plats ne sont pas à recommander. Nous avons par contre essayé la bière blanche en fût & le mocktail moût de pomme & framboise, & c'était très bon. Le service est relativement lent mais les hôtesses & serveuses étaient gentilles & professionnelles. La seule grande déception est la nourriture, qui n'est pas fidèle à ce qui est décrit dans le menu.

What an amazing atmosphere! They have amazing live jazz band which added to the experience! Food was pretty good but what made the experience exceptional was our server Kevin. Despite it being so busy at the restaurant, he made us feel so welcome & was so attentive throughout the evening. He was truly the best & so kind!!! Can't wait to return when I come back to Montreal. Shoutout to Kevin!!

Great restaurant with outdoor seating right in old Montréal. Our server (did not get his name) was awesome, he was attentive & personable. We had a late lunch here & then returned for dinner & the live jazz music. We thought the wait time for a table would be long. There was a line already formed when we got there. However, we waited about 15 minutes. for a table. The atmosphere is upbeat & fun. We had a fantastic time. The food was delicious, drinks were too & reasonably priced.
