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.

I love dining in this historical place. It feels like being indoors & outdoors at the same time with a large tree in the midst of the dining space, flowers hanging from the stone walls, & a jazz duo playing softly the background. The service is friendly & prompt & the menu offers a delicious variety of items from appetiizers to pizzas to their famous crepes.

Beautiful place to have brunch or lunch. Live jazz all the way. So many tables so the waiting time is not too long but better get reservations.
