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.

Poor service. "We don't have your name & no table available." When shown e-confirmation, table given without comment or apology. 55 minutes from seating to service of first course. "Sorry, no more veal chops" & this at 6:30 & 45 minutes after ordering. Food was good, however but not good enough to induce me to return.

The food was good & that bumped the rating to three. Otherwise it may have been as low as 1.5 stars. We went out of our way to book a reservation & used this libro system. The issue with this establishment is service. We had travelled a long way to visit Montreal & at no point did we ever feel welcome in this restaurant. In fact my wife & I felt like we were in the way & at one point I felt that the staff were angry with us, we did notice that the staff went out of their way to welcome guests that they seemed to know & who seemed local, & that is not the way to run a business. We do not recommend this establishment.

La nourriture était bonne. Toutefois, personne n'est venu nous voir pour le café plus de 20 minutes... nous avons manqué de temps moi & mon client car il y a évidemment d'autres rencontres en pm...
