La plus belle expérience culinaire de ma vie. J'y ai mangé le meilleur plat de ma vie, lièvre, foie gras & cèpes. Incroyable, j'en ai versé quelques larmes.
Personally I think the food was too expensive for the taste. Most of the dishes were too salty, & I already normally eat salty food. The staffs were really nice but they were more focus on tables that have more people, we waited almost 20-30 minutes to get the check at the end of the night.
Between emails, text messages, phone calls, they reached out easily over 5 times to make sure we will arrive for dinner despite we already said we would. I personally found this not too professional.
Overall it was a different dining experience but I don't think it was worth it, & probably won't recommend it.

Nous avons passé une très belle soirée au Mousso. Le personnel ainsi que les chefs étaient extrêmement accueillants, attentionnés & professionnels, ce qui a rendu l'expérience très agréable du début à la fin.
Les plats étaient délicieux, créatifs & préparés avec beaucoup de soin. Cela dit, compte tenu du prix demandé, nous nous attendions peut-être à être encore davantage impressionnés sur le plan gastronomique. Par ailleurs, le service & le déroulement du repas nous ont semblé assez longs.
Malgré cela, nous avons apprécié l'expérience dans son ensemble, notamment grâce à la gentillesse de toute l'équipe & à la qualité des plats. Merci pour votre accueil & votre passion.
Une expérience gastronomique exceptionnelle du début à la fin. En tant qu'épicuriens ayant visité de nombreux restaurants au fil des ans, le Mousso se classe sans hésitation parmi nos plus belles expériences. Chaque plat met en valeur des produits locaux & de saison avec une créativité & une richesse remarquables, tandis que les accords mets-vins sont tout simplement magistraux. La présence du chef pour présenter chaque création & les explications passionnées de la sommelière transforment le repas en véritable spectacle sensoriel. Une adresse que nous recommandons sans la moindre hésitation. 🍷✨
Oof. I really try to not write bad reviews but at this price point I think it's necessary. I eat a fair amount of fine dining but not all the time, just enough to be treating myself, & know good from not good. This was so bad that i needed to walk out early because i couldn't eat the food..
I left about 3 courses in , snacks & then two real courses i left at the latter one didn't finish either of them. Once I was served a chewy seafood skewer I was very concerned because how are you going charge what you're charging & serve me that. Definitely some of the worst preparation of seafood probably ever & I'm talking about at any price point. No flavours to note or remember.
Then I was served the most atrocious noodle dish or squid dish I forget at this point but after you have to mix it. which is what your instructed to do, it literally looked like throw up, I gave it a try because why not & it just didn't even taste good, i remember it tasting kind of bad actually.
I was in shock I didn't know what to do I've never had the situation before so I offered to pay for my meal & then leave so i could go satisfy my hunger.
The staff is really nice as any fine dining restaurant is supposed to be.
I urge the chef to consider these elements & how they even happen to appear on dishes serve to people. I am not a picky eater by any means I eat everything I live for food I love food. This being served at what is supposed to be one of the highest levels of gastronomy is concerning.
Took the kids here a few days ago on a bit of a whim & honestly could not believe how welcoming the staff were with two little ones in tow. The mushroom tasting course was incredible, something we are still talking about at home. Our server was so patient explaining each dish to our curious seven-year-old, which made the whole meal feel really special. We usually stick to more casual spots with the kids but Le Mousso made us feel completely at home without ever making us feel rushed.
This was a very unique gastronomical experience. Each dish is prepared & presented to all guests at the same time allowing them to enjoy each dish together. The food was great & the progression made sense. Each ingredient on the dish had some form of preparation to create a well balanced plate. There were some misses, but overall the meal was very enjoyable. Service was fantastic & every member of the staff made you feel welcome. Unfortunately, we do not speak French, so when each dish was explained, we didn't understand which took away from the experience a bit. Even though they came to our table to explain in English, not being able to engage with the diners together was a bit disappointing. With that being said, this is a great spot to visit if you're in MTL. The lobster & taco course (& the miso caramel madeleine) still live with me to this day.
