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.

Très bonne expérience dans ce restaurant ! Le poke au jacquier que j'ai commandé était délicieux, bien assaisonné, beaucoup de saveurs, & plutôt bien garni. La portion était très bien. Le personnel était accueillant & agréable, l'extérieur est très beau ! Les prix sont plutôt corrects. Mention pour le groupe de musiciens présent qui rend l'ambiance excellente, même si c'était un peu bruyant (le restaurant étant rempli).

Highly over-rated Service was ridiculously slow. We waited forever to order & we were there for dinner early. I had to flag one of the hostesses down to get our waiter. The chairs are super uncomfortable & the tables too close together. I was disappointed with the menu choices. The shrimp tacos I ordered were not what I expected. On a positive note: the small sangria pitcher is perfect for 2 people & the cookie dessert was delicious.

Went in for a relative’s birthday dinner. Really nice atmosphere with live jazz music.
The food was really tasty. The service was a bit slow however that can be attributed to how busy it was! The prices are reasonable. Would go again!
