The location near downtown and event venues is convenient for concerts or games, and the staff are helpful and accommodating, though a few comments mention value for money and occasional slower service.
I ate at this restaurant with my family & I rate it at a perfect 10. The food, the service, the atmosphere was absolutely out of this world. We all ordered different dishes & all the meal was delicious. The wine list was plenty of good choices to choose from. Thanks to the great staff for our evening an enjoyable one. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone

Authentic Italian cuisine! Food & service excellent! Had muscles & calamari as entree, delicious, pizza was amazing, fish of the day was even more delicious! Highly recommended! Parking in back, but more public parking on stanley.
While in town for the Campus Stores Canada Conference, my company sponsored a reception at La Medusa in downtown Montreal, & the impeccable customer service left a lasting impression, with a staff that was attentive, friendly & went above & beyond. The ambiance was delightful, complemented by a tasteful decor that added to the overall experience. As for the food, every dish was a culinary masterpiece, showcasing the authentic flavors of Italian cuisine. From appetizers to desserts, La Medusa demonstrated culinary excellence. Our event was elevated by this extraordinary dining experience, making it a memorable occasion & highly recommended for those seeking a perfect blend of exceptional service & delectable Italian cuisine in the heart of Montreal.
Great welcome, rapid attention, we all went for the daily special soup & Mediterranean Sea Bass
We all loved it. Was nice to finally come back to a place I've always enjoyed, & introduced to a few friends.
& their choice of the white sauvignon blanc was perfect. Highly recommend it.

Went for pizza for lunch. Excellent! Went to dinner for salad & pasta. Food was excellent. Great , attentive, friendly service. Highly recommend. Will be back whenever we're in Montreal.
If you want an authentic Italian experience I highly recommend going to La Medusa. The food, the staff, the service, & the atmosphere make it one of the best restaurants in Montreal if not Eastern Canada. I am from Vancouver & make sure I reserve a night here for dinner with clients when I come to town. They carry an excellent wine list at all price levels. Homemade pastas are old family recipes. The homemade desserts - cannolis & tiramisu - are worth saving some room for. The veal & steak dishes melt in your mouth. My biggest challenge is trying to decide what to eat - it is all so so good!!!
This restaurant came highly recommended when were looking for a spot to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We looked at the menu online before visiting the restaurant & we (my wife & I) were both very excited that they had Polpette (Meatballs) as an appetizer & also Spaghetti Con Polpette (Spaghetti & Meatballs) on the Pasta menu since we both LOVE meatball & were excited to try them. To our disappointment when placing our order the waiter told us that they had run out of meatballs. There was 1 other couple in the restaurant...how could they have already run out of meatballs! Anyways, even though we were VERY disappointed we found other things to order. The food was good.
