Très déçu d'avoir choisi ce restaurant recommandé par Michelin. Je ne comprends pas.
Le restaurant n'es pas du tout attirant. La salle n'est pas très propre. Nous étions envahi de moustiques. La cuisine fade manque de Pep's dans les assaisonnements . Désolé mais pas du tout à la hauteur d'un recommandé Michelin.
This restaurant is so underrated it deserves a spot along the top michelin restaurants! We were so lucky to discover it before it get to crowded! Amazing experience i have nothing to say everything was perfect!
I went yesterday with my family & extremely disappointing. What I could see use to be a well kept place, decorated with taste, was dirty & run down. Glassware dirty, interior of place rundown, kitchen desorganized. Dishes pretty but no outstanding taste. When I reserved the week before, the Michelin red plate was still on the exterior facade which made me reserve, but it was false representation. The chef Remi Lemieux, who got the Michelin reward, left almost a year ago. We should have run away at the first signs once sitting down: broken curtains, run down bar, dirty wineglasses, no white table cloths like on instagram pictures. The new administration kept the name but changed the logo from red burgundy to white. We were mislead to thinking it was a Michelin recommendation but it is not anymore. Very expensive for what we got. We were fooled by past reputation.

We recently visited Mémo after being inspired by glowing food vlogs & the chef's reputation. Having dined at over 100 Michelin-starred restaurants worldwide (from Europe to Asia & North America), we approached this intimate Montreal spot with high but open expectations for the 5-course dégustation menu with wine pairings.
The first two courses delivered real excitement creative, well-executed, & full of flavor. We were genuinely anticipating the rest of the meal to build on that strong start.
Unfortunately, everything unraveled from the third course onward. The dishes became increasingly lackluster, culminating in a beef course that was completely tasteless & poorly seasoned a shocking low point in what should have been a highlight. There was no digestive offered or even suggested at the end of the meal, not coffee or tea with dessert. Which felt like a basic oversight in a tasting-menu format at this price level.
Service, while initially attentive, dragged significantly: we waited a full 20 minutes just to settle the bill after the meal concluded, which killed any lingering positive momentum.
The $20 cocktails were forgettable at best mediocre mixes that didn't justify the price.
For those who haven't experienced many top-tier restaurants, Mémo might feel impressive due to the intimate setting & chef interaction. But for seasoned fine-dining enthusiasts, this was one of the most average & inconsistent experiences we've had in recent years. The early promise simply wasn't sustained, & at dégustation pricing, consistency across all courses is non-negotiable.
We won't be returning & can't recommend it to anyone familiar with true high-end cuisine. Sad to note great potential is there, but execution fell far short.
When traveling & you are wanting an excellent meal, consult the Michelin guide! This is how I was able to find Mémo (short for'making dishes from their Mémoires!') - & the January tasting menu did not disappoint. From the amuse-bouche, to the fish course, to the dessert, all seven (7) courses were amazing. The best part? The very personable attention to service & detail from the crew. I had a lot of amazing interactions with the maître d & one of the chefs. The maître d also had asked me about what drink I was wanting to have & I had suggested a cocktail & she asked if I wanted sweet or savory & I said savory. What she came back with was a'Greek Salad Martini.' & it tasted exactly like a Greek salad but with no onion aftertaste & it worked perfectly well with the January tasting menu.
Please make your reservation or just walk in & enjoy the incredible gastronomy of Mémo!!!
Fantastic restaurant. It may not have a Michelin star yet but it sure deserves one. From the friendly & detailed service to the careful preparation of dishes that will get all your taste buds going. Wonderful experience!
Found this restaurant via the Michelin Guide app, & had an excellent experience. We went for the 6 course tasting menu plus wine tasting. Staff & chef were fantastic & very attentive.
I was a bit apprehensive ahead of our visit given there are no prices on the website & nothing mentioned in previous reviews. To help others, the cost of the tasting menu was $75, & the wine pairing was also $75 (before taxes). I consider this good value given the quality of the food.
