Review Summary

La Medusa comes across as an inviting Italian spot with warm, attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere. Reviews praise homemade pasta, delicious pizza, seafood, and a well-curated wine list, with hospitality that makes groups feel at home. 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.

Made a reservation for our wedding anniversary & was told to sit at the bar. IL got the feeling they could not get rid of us quick enough. Food was serve lukewarm. Basically this is a place where if they know you its great, if not you take your chances.

This was an incredible experience. I was referred to La Medusa from a friend while on a visit to Montreal. We turned up (a little late - sorry) but were graciously welcomed by Joe. Seated in soft plush orange chairs & served by Pino. Pino was so good. Made our time fun & some great suggestions. Started with the meatball & rappini. the meatball was amazing only better I had was from my mom. The rappini was better than my moms. The white lasagna was the best ever. I will crave this all the time. Do no hesitate, order the white lasagna. All in all an outstanding dinner & experience. Thanks so much to everyone for taking such great care of us. I will definitely go back my next time in Montreal. Best Italian I have had in North America.

Comme première visite & expérience chez La Médusa, j'ai apprécié l'endroit, la propreté des lieux incluant salle de toilette ! Eh oui! car je me suis toujours dit que l'entretien des salles de toilette est le reflet de la qualité de la cuisine & des lieux.
J'ai aimé mon choix de vin 🍷 ainsi que la pizza 🍕& salade....

C'est certain que je vais y revenir.
Merci
