MARCUS Restaurant + Lounge concentre son identité culinaire sur la fraîcheur des produits de la mer et des viandes grillées méticuleusement préparées. La cuisine met en avant les qualités naturelles des sélections du bar à cru et des coupes nobles à travers un processus privilégiant la pureté du produit et la disponibilité saisonnière. Des agencements ouverts définissent l'expérience spatiale, permettant une visibilité directe sur les zones de préparation où les ingrédients sont traités avec une intervention minimale. La texture et la température jouent des rôles cruciaux dans la construction de chaque assiette présentée à table. Les ressources marines et les protéines terrestres subissent des méthodes de cuisson précises pour conserver leur humidité et leur caractère inhérents. Ce lieu constitue une destination privilégiée pour ceux recherchant un lien direct entre les offres du marché régional et le produit culinaire fini servi dans un cadre contemporain et animé.
MARCUS Restaurant + Lounge est fréquemment salué pour son décor somptueux, son ambiance sophistiquée et son emplacement central, ce qui en fait une destination prisée pour les célébrations et le brunch. De nombreux convives soulignent la grande qualité de certains plats comme le plateau de fruits de mer, les pâtes à la truffe et les desserts, ainsi que l'expérience immersive au comptoir du chef. Toutefois, les avis sur la cuisine sont partagés, certains clients trouvant les portions petites et les saveurs décevantes compte tenu des prix élevés. Si plusieurs critiques vantent un personnel attentionné et professionnel, d'autres font état d'un service inconstant, incluant de longs délais d'attente, un manque occasionnel de professionnalisme et une musique parfois trop forte nuisant aux conversations. En somme, l'expérience semble varier considérablement selon l'occasion et l'équipe de service rencontrée.

🌟 Une expérience brunch exquise au Marcus - Four Seasons Montréal 🌟
J'ai eu le plaisir de savourer le brunch du dimanche au Marcus, & je tiens à exprimer toute ma gratitude pour cette expérience remarquable.
Installée au comptoir, j'ai pu observer en direct le ballet parfaitement orchestré de la cuisine, dirigé avec maîtrise par la sous-chef Cannelle. La rigueur, l'organisation & la synchronisation de l'équipe étaient impressionnantes. C'était un véritable spectacle culinaire, captivant à regarder.
J'ai choisi la formule brunch complète, & chaque service a été un ravissement :
🍊 Le jus d'orange, très frais & juteux, donnait le ton.
🥯 L'assiette de bagel au saumon fumé, accompagnée d'une salade fraîche, était délicieuse.
🥑 Le toast à l'avocat, tomate & feta était savoureux, parfaitement assaisonné.
🍰 & pour conclure, la brioche à la cannelle en dessert était absolument succulente.
Le service a été impeccable, attentionné & fluide du début à la fin. L'ambiance raffinée du lieu a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable.
Un immense merci à toute l'équipe pour ce moment d'exception. Je recommande sans hésiter.

The pasta & lobster are 12/10. Never disapointed !!
The truffle fries are also a must everytime !
Sea Tower : Fresh & delicious ! The sauce that came with shrimp was delicious 😋
The salads were a good portion & also great!
HONEST take 😕 Over the last 3 years, I've been to this place more than 10 times; Sometimes alone, sometimes on a date, & often to celebrate with family. First, it's a great place, but I wouldn't bother recommend it if you're looking for the best experience in town. While the food feels like it's done with love, it can get quite pricey. The portions are relatively small, & while I understand it's gastronomy, the reduction in size over the past year is notable. The salad tastes quite basic, more like something a cow would eat. I also suggest skipping the focaccia plate in the lounge, as it's essentially the same as the complimentary bread they give free if you ask. Service can be hit or miss. We had some servers who were thoughtful & patient, while others seemed to force their smiles, making it awkward. don't feel compelled to give the 15% tip for service that doesn't meet expectations, especially in places where the staff may overestimate their service. Additionally, there seems to be a consistent issue with getting water... Yes you read it right. Each time I've dined in the lounge, I end up playing a game of eye contact to request water. The only time we received water without asking was when we were CHARGED 24$ for 2 bottles, quite a surprise! We didn't finish it, & they didn't offer to let us take it with us. Waste water... Ultimately, I wouldn't choose this restaurant for an ordinary outing. However, I do recommend it if it's for a time, a moment to share with someone but OCCASIONALLY. Personally i probably won't but I do enjoy the lounge because it's more comfortable, warm, & feels private "less serious". They could definitely improve their service & the variety of food & desserts there but well. While the dishes still taste good & the restaurant is beautifully designed, don't be swayed too heavily by either 1 star or 5 stars reviews. Each experience is pretty unique, & while it's a decent place, it's not the greatest in the area. With some improvements, it could be a no-brainer really exceptional place.
C'est un beau restaurant avec une ambiance très plaisante. Nous avons été bien servi. Par contre, je suis déçu du carré d'agneau que nous avons pris. 2 très petits morceaux presque pas de viandre mais plus de graisse. C'était la première fois que je voyais des carrés d'agneau aussi petit. J'ai aimé la purée de pomme de terre & le dessert que j'ai trouvé original. Comme entrée j'avais pris la salade de pieuvre que j'ai trouvé moyen à cause de la salade un peu amère qui enlevait le goût de la pieuvre selon moi. De plus, tous les autres tables se sont fait servir du pain avec la salade mais nous, nous en avons pas eu.
It's fine. I have been multiple times. The staff is friendly but often not attentive if there are more than 5 tables. For instance it takes 10+ minutes for water sometimes. The chicken was good but sort of dry. The tomato salad was fantastic. Overall it is losing its sense of luxury thru lacklustre service - the hostess does not smile or say hello but instead just stares at the computer... that's fine if there is a line but I went alone & was the only one. For around $110-130 per person on average, they should beef up their service. I didn't notice music either & the tables had ring marks on them. Felt like a chain restaurant when it should be the top floor of the four seasons feel.
Marcus at the Four Seasons has always been one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. I have consistently been satisfied with the quality of service & food, until this past Saturday night. I've been wrestling with myself for the past two days about whether or not to leave this review, & I've finally decided to do so. This past Saturday night, I visited Marcus at the Four Seasons. Unfortunately, my friend's salad plate contained a rather large spider. Naturally, we called the waitress, who handled the situation very professionally. She promptly apologized, removed the salad, & brought a new one. Additionally, the restaurant manager came to apologize & offered us champagne to improve the situation. We decided to stay & not leave the restaurant. However, when the head manager approached our table, instead of offering a simple apology, he gave us a lecture about the type of spider, mentioning it was a garden spider with a white spot on its abdomen & reassuring us it didn't come from the restaurant kitchen. Frankly, it didn't matter to us where the spider came from. We were in an enclosed restaurant space, & the distance between the kitchen & our table was very short. The main issue was the presence of a large live spider in the salad, & the head manager, who should have acted more professionally than the waitress & the other manager, ended up handling it the worst, which made me very frustrated. The restaurant team tried their best by bringing us complimentary desserts. However, if it hadn't been for my friend's birthday & the celebration being ruined, I would have left the restaurant due to the head manager's behavior. I wasn't looking to exploit the situation for free drinks or desserts. Despite this, I want to express my gratitude to our waitress for her calm & professional demeanor. I understand that accidents happen, even at Marcus restaurants! As someone who works in management, I personally expected a more logical response from the head manager.
I am very disappointed at the service & attitude I received at the lounge I am a Marcus fan club & for the past weeks I have been going every week. I love the vegetarian option on the menu plus the tomato watermelon salad. 2 weeks ago on a Saturday night I took a freind who was visiting from Chicago to Marcus lounge. We got there at 8:30 pm & it so dead. The reason was because there was Christmas parties all around. The A assistant refused to let us in !!!! I was shocked & embarrassed in front of my freind. The guy did not let us in & gaslighted & insulted me. I m very upset & disappointed. So I am going again with my sick colleagues.
