When we arrived, the hostess outside asked how many people were in our party & told us to head inside. Once inside, there was no hostess at the podium & no one in line, so we assumed we could seat ourselves, especially since the restaurant was only half full. We chose a table & sat down, but shortly after, a waiter approached us &, rather rudely, said,'You have to wait for the hostess to seat you. You can't just sit down,' before walking off to go get the hostess. We then got up & walked back over to the hostess, & when we asked if we could sit at the same table we had already chosen, she said there was no issue at all & brought us right back to it. It felt unnecessary & a bit awkward, especially since there were so many empty tables & no clear direction at the entrance. Thankfully, our waitress was incredibly kind & the service from her was excellent. It's just unfortunate that the initial interaction with the waiter made the start of our experience feel unwelcoming.View more

Service was good & our waitress was very nice but for the rest I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. The worst chicken burger I had, the bun was burnt & stale. Chunky piece of hard chicken not even tasty. Mediocre fries & had a Pina colada which taste just like syrup. The table for 4 people was very small outside & we hardly even had room for our plates on the table. We were very uncomfortably seated in an over crowded area. I heard of this place before & always wanted to try it but honestly there is nothing really special about this place except for the live jazz music which was nice. For such an overpriced menu there are way nicer & better restaurants in Montreal!

Expérience à vivre dans le Vieux-Montreal. Le décor enchanteur est enivrant, le choix de plats est varié & accessible à tous les goûts. On est dehors mais protégés de la pluie s'il en tombe. L'ambiance était agrémentée de musiciens. J'ai beaucoup aimé mon expérience!View more

Disappointing. Been here before & wanted to take my family to experience the beautiful atmosphere. Ordered the lobster sandwich & it was mediocre at best, poorly seasoned & stale bun. Severely over priced. The serve was adequate & the music was nice.View more

Jardin Nelson was buzzing with energy on a weeknight, & we were fortunate enough to snag a table in the beautiful garden, where we enjoyed live jazz music alongside our meal.
We started with the baby ribs glazed with Jack Daniel's & maple syrup, & they were absolutely delicious--fall-off-the-bone tender! A must-try for anyone. For our entrees, we opted for the pâté chinois au canard, which is akin to shepherd's pie but filled with succulent shredded duck, corn, & creamy mashed potatoes. It was simply delightful. The lasagna au gratin was also impressive, featuring layers of eggplant, tomato sauce, spinach, & peppers baked to perfection.View more

Great spot for live music & food. Tried the clam chowder which was well done, great taste & hot! Tried other items on the menu which were good but not overly memorable.View more

Really nice experience at Jardin Nelson. The service was impeccable! We ordered 2 appetizers: Breaded & baked calamary & Brie with dried tomatoes & basil. Then ordered Pizza Charcutière & Du marché. All was amazing! The drinks were very good also. Had lychee martini (amazing) & a glass of red wine.
The atmosphere is superb, there is a live band playing & the ambiance is really nice as the seating area is outside in a huge garden. They have lots of heaters so dont worry if the weather is cold, you wont feel cold once seated.
Other things to note is that they do not accept groups of more than 6, which is perfectly fine to keep the noise level normal with the band playing.
Overall experience is a 10/10View more
