Truthfully, the food was amazing. Service was great. The wine pairing was very weak & very expensive for some Quebec & Hungarian wine. Sadly, a bunch of guests did not respect their reservations so the chef decided not to stick around & the experience was nowhere near what was expected. Would not return Given the price.
Probably the most intentional, brilliant, inspired meal of my life. We had the pairings as well, which were a counterpoint, creating a further resonance; a broader story, a 6th to a major chord. I could write a novel about the courses themselves, the lobster swimming in a herbaceous, perfect bath of frothy, complexity, but you just need to go. It is brilliant, yet unpretentious. Beautiful, grounded & self assured. A slow build, a hero's journey. No misses. A core memory. Inspired.

One of the best overall dining experiences I've ever had. I have some quirky allergies & Le Mousso went above & beyond to accommodate me while still providing an exceptional dining experience. The head chef here brought tremendous energy throughout the evening & his passion was felt by everyone in the room. This truly was an incredible experience I will never forget.
J'ai adoré mon expérience Mousso! Quels assemblage de saveurs, arrimage vin & plat succulent : bravo à Cécile! Merci à toute l'équipe une expérience, une soirée qui restera dans ma mémoire & mon palais!
Wow! What a great atmosphere, spent a fabulous evening. Chef Antoine sets the tone & the rest of the team delivers. Incredible & attentionate service. The food is simply exceptional, the absolute best Montreal has to offer. Highly recommended!!
While I've been in plenty of'fancy' restaurants across the world, including a bunch of Michelin Star ones, Le Mousso really stands out in a unique way:
As other reviewers have mentioned, they do their absolute best to make you feel like part of a big family dinner with the owner & staff. The way it's presented, explained, the jokes, the very cute'Santé' that they shout before every meal & the list goes on & on & on - everything they do is to make you feel welcome & that they're overly joyed at the fact that you're there this evening to eat at their'home'. It's not an easy feat to accomplish, but they do it in a masterful way.
In fact, I was really happy at all the text messages & follow ups I received after I reserved - it really feels like the restaurant deeply cares to make sure your experience is impeccable.
Of note (as of writing this):
1. They only have 1 service per evening, are not open during most days & don't have too many seating. I highly suggest you reserve well in advance. No worries about sitting at the bar or table though - they both work great & I actually prefer the bar, you get to watch live the kitchen & wonderful coordination between the staff.
2. As other reviewers have mentioned, if you starved yourself the entire day, it won't be enough to fill you up - but if you ate a good lunch, you should be fine. Don't save your stomach space just for the meal.
3. They offer excellent mocktails if you can't drink alcohol - just ask.
4. I saw one reviewer misunderstand the tongue & cheek of the owner's speeches as an insult, but DON'T! It's the usual'Quebecois' humor & the last thing they want to do is to make you feel insulted. What they mention is really in playful humor & any instructions is to make sure every guest gets the best experience ever. Enjoy & don't take things too seriously in life!
