Review Summary

Mesón earns praise for attentive service and a warm, convivial atmosphere that can feel quaint and intimate or lively depending on the night. The tapas and brunch scenes are lauded for flavor and shareability, with standout items such as pulpo a la gallega, secreto iberico, gravlax, saumon mariné, croquetas, and paella, though the paella is sometimes too salty or not up to par. Desserts divide opinions, with the Basque cheesecake disappointing some while the éclair is a recommended finish. Prices are viewed as reasonable for the overall quality by many, yet some feel value is uneven and portions or quality have fluctuated as prices rise. Service is described as impeccable and attentive in many visits, but a few experiences note colder or rushed service and changes in atmosphere. Music can be loud, occasionally affecting conversation. Overall Mesón is seen as a solid neighbourhood spot for gatherings with friends or family, offering good food, strong drinks, and a welcoming vibe, with some variability in dishes and consistency across visits.

The best flank steak I've had in a long time. Delicious apps & great Spanish wine selection. The owner is present, waiting tables & running food orders. A great restaurant!

Very good food, great house made wine selection (must try the red!). We had the chef selection menu, the octopus was my favourite. Modern atmosphere & very nicely decorated. A bit on the pricey side though.

Update: Nous sommes allés par hasard pour le novembre Montréal avec Une sélection plus restreinte de nourriture à un prix fixe 52 $ par personne. Encore une fois, tout était solide & Sympathique. Toujours un classique dans le cartier. Bon service. Bon vins. Drinks bien fait. Ambiance chaleureuse. Le gravlax de truite, les calmars & les cocas ( qui sont plus généreuses en portion qu'avant ) sont super bonnes. La pieuvre aussi. Le menu dégustation dégustation 65$/pers. sans vin est très bon. Un go to pour nous.
