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.

Nous avons été déçues de l'attitude du serveur à la fin du service. Aucun autre verre n'a été offert une fois le repas terminé, aucun dessert ou café non plus. Celui-ci a tassé les billets d'argent afin de voir le montant laissé en pourboire...

Je suis allé pour une petite promenade, & du coup, je me suis trouvé devant les portes de La Medusa; l'ambiance m'a contraint d'entrer & c'était une des meilleures décisions de la soirée... This cozy two floor hallway of a restaurant gave you the feeling like you were at a distant relative's fancy cocktail dinner & it was invite only - listen, I can't say if I liked the soup or the pizza more, but I will say that I think it was the best pizza experience. I don't know how they managed to have a sweet, savoury, salty, umami, & spicy flavour (in that order) in one pizza, but they made it work. The chef even came out to ask me how it was tasting (going the extra mile)! I'm all about repping local eats that deserve a little more love for what they do, & La Medusa is a Montreal GEM! Until the next

Absolutely horrible experience. Make a romantic reservation. Be seated next to the kitchen with a worker drying & clinging flatware.
Serve with an attitude when asked to explain the dish. Have to ask for flatware but only get partial. Move ourselves to another table. Entrees come before appetizers.
Staff saw " so how is everything?".
Don't waste your time on this place!

Bonne nourriture. La rapidité du service était satisfaisante compte tenu que nous allions au match de hockey mais nous avons avons trouvé l'attitude des serveurs un peu froide ou parfois trop familier.
