About

MARCUS Restaurant + Lounge centers its culinary identity on the freshness of locally sourced seafood and meticulously prepared grilled meats. The kitchen highlights the natural qualities of raw bar selections and prime cuts through a process that emphasizes product purity and seasonal availability. Open layouts define the spatial experience, allowing for clear views of the preparation areas where ingredients are treated with minimal intervention. Texture and temperature play critical roles in the construction of every plate presented to the table. Marine life and land proteins undergo precise cooking methods to retain their inherent moisture and character. This venue functions as a primary destination for those seeking a direct connection between regional market offerings and the finished culinary product served in a contemporary, high-volume environment.

My husband & I visited for our anniversary dinner & upon arriving, immediately were treated horribly. We were sat at a table way in the back which I wasn't bothered by, but then there was an extreme lack of service or attention. It took 30 minutes for a waiter to even bring water & take our drink orders. Once we ordered appetizer & the Dover Sol for Two (special) $180 fish - we were treated entirely different standard & it felt like we had 4 different waiters/waitresses at once. The food arrived & was definitely mediocre. We have eaten at a similar restaurant in Toronto & ordered the same exact fish but there was way higher quality overall. I DO NOT recommend.

I went there multiple times, but everytime I went I'm asking for Alexei. You should too he's the best bartender they have. He never let me down. Always ready for a new creation, a different taste or great service. Strongly recommend

Terrible customer service. The staff were arrogant & unwelcoming. The food was nothing special, especially considering the price.
What disappointed us the most was the service. From the valet at the hotel entrance to our server, the entire experience was extremely poor. The valet/door attendant was especially disrespectful & made us feel unwelcome from the moment we arrived. We felt judged & stereotyped, which completely ruined our evening.
Our second visit was by far the worst. We gave this place another chance, but the experience was even more disappointing than the first. I would not recommend this place.

We booked the Chef's Counter experience & we were very impressed. From the attentive service from Luke & all the wait staff was perfect.
Every course was incredible with a beautiful presentation, detailed explanations, & friendly conversations with Chef Daniel. His team was organized, always smiling, & meticulous with every dish.
We highly recommend on a weeknight.

Très décevant comme restaurant. On paye plus de 500$ à deux pour des plats qui manquent énormément de gout & avec des portions très petites. On se fait dire qu'il''manque de pain'' (?) & on se fait seulement servir de l'huile d'olive pour tremper le pain sans vinaigre balsamique (assez bizzare comme accompagnement). Le tartare de saumon est chaud & goutte absolument rien. Le seul plat qui s'est démarqué a été le dessert. À la fin, 18% de''tip'' est inclus malgré un service qui est loin d'être exceptionnel & on se fait dire que d'habitude on peut pas séparer le bill à plus que 2 mais que ce soir là ils ont plus de temps donc ils vont le séparer à tout notre groupe (un restaurant''recommandé Michelin'' qui n'est pas capable de séparer des factures c'est assez gênant). L'emplacement du restaurant est vraiment exceptionnel mais je ne comprendrai jamais comment ils ont pu être recommandé Michelin. Pour le tier de ce prix, il y a des dizaines de restaurants à Montréal qui sont de bien meilleure qualité, avec des meilleures portions, plus de gout & un bien meilleur service.

Nous avions pris un verre ainsi que des shooters au lounge du Marcus ce dimanche. Du début à la fin, le service de Janie a été très impoli & peu professionnel.

Aucun sourire, une attitude nonchalante, & elle revenait constamment aux cinq minutes pour nous demander de recommander alors que nos verres étaient encore pleins. Nous avons ressenti une forte pression à consommer davantage, malgré des cocktails déjà à 40 $ & un billet d'entrée à 50 $.

À la fin de la soirée, alors qu'une voiture nous attendait en bas, nous avons simplement redemandé la facture & elle nous a répondu en nous levant le ton & en nous faisant une lecture sur l'étiquette à avoir autour d'elle. Ce manque de professionnalisme & de courtoisie est vraiment décevant pour un établissement de ce niveau.

Upscale & well located in city center. Recommend trying the seafood tower. For the lounge so get a reservation.
