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.

Ils ne prennent pas les réservations par internet.
RESTAURANT LA MÉDUSA (CENTRE-VILLE DE MONTRÉAL). Bouffe italienne excellente, rien à redire là-dessus. Mais nous avons été très mal accueillis & ils nous ont fait sentir qu'on n'était vraiment pas les bienvenus. Très mauvais service « obligé », une attitude de marde-fendante-pédante-hautaine & bourrée de préjugés même si « l'habit ne fait pas le moine »... Nous avons eu la pire table du resto directement dans l'entrée très passante de la cuisine, malgré qu'il y avait seulement deux autres clients dans le resto ! Le service était plus que pitché, on a été là une heure au total (deux drinks chaque, un plat principal chaque & mon dessert de fête m'a même été facturé !!). La serveuse devrait apprendre à 1. Connaître son menu, 2. Fermer sa grand'yeule de Bitchy-qui-connaît-tout-à-22-ans, 3. Arrêter de dire n'importe quoi & donner son avis (si j'avais voulu ton avis, je te l'aurais demandé), 4. Finalement, trouver une autre job. ENWEILLE MANGE PIS DÉCÂLISSE MALGRÉ UNE FACTURE TOTALE DE $200 ! Donc, allez ailleurs 😊
