Sleek looking restaurant - food is Spanish style, the plates are all shareable - everything was flavourful - if a tad salty. The paella was excellent. Get the churros, served warm. Strong cocktails, good wine list. Very reasonable prices.

A tapas place in a residential area. A casual restaurant gives an impeccable service compared to a fancy fine-dining one.
We were a bit clumsy with the Spanish menu, the passionate young Elaina patiently helped us to demystify every section on the menu. Then she has suggested three choices from the Platitos Frios, three from the Platitos Calientes & one from the Platos to share as tapas, also a bio white wine to pair with. The tapas was served two by two, plates, forks & knifes were changed after every serving. The delectable paella was served at the end.

I went to Meson with my cousin for a late night dinner, hence we easily found parking. What a discovery. This is now a top 3 in my list of great dining experiences. The ambiance, the service, & food impeccable. Our waiter was very nice & attentive to our questions. Even the waitress who brought the food over would explain each dish. Each dish was a delight. The wine was a good pick, white Faustino. I am definitely going back!! Bravo to Meson team!

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.

Great service, wine & atmosphere, but food is at most ordinary. It was my second time there, but the last one unfortunately.... & I'm not that difficult. I love simplicity in food, but nothing was really carried out well, & I had the same experience the first time.

I passed by here so many times & it was on my list. The food is ok, nothing extraordinary. Some of the seafood was overcooked. However the service is really lacking. 1. We asked for help to choose a glass of wine. The response was "we have 6-7 options". This is already obvious from the menu. So no further explanation until we ask specific questions about each wine. Compared to other restaurants in Montreal, this kind of response was a first. 2. After we ordered the food, the waiter pulls the menu from my partner's hand without even asking. 3. While the waiter is talking to the guests at the next table, she takes away our wine glass without looking at us or our table. (I.e. without interacting with us) 4. We got bumped multiple times by the waiters while we're eating. Half of the time there's not even an apology. I understand that the space is tight but when it happens repeatedly, it starts to interfere with the dining experience. I first assumed that the waiter must be having a bad day first but these things keep piling up. I've been to Tapeo before & never had such a service. Really disappointing for a restaurant at this level.
