Set in the heart of Villeray, Mesón is a casual, one of a kind bistro offering a variety of comforting and original Spanish inspired dishes. At Mesón, one can expect to be enthusiastically received by the restaurant’s young and dynamic team.
At the head of the team are the restaurant’s four owners: Victor Afonso, Sébastien Muniz, Marie-Fleur St-Pierre and Pedro Oliveira. The group shares a true love for the flavourful cooking the Iberian peninsula is known for.
The culinary experience at Mesón is enhanced by a courteous service and an appealing decor. The menu’s specialties, as combined with a pleasant atmosphere, are sure to satisfy your longing for delectable food enjoyed in the good company of friends.
Mesón is described as a friendly spot with attentive service and a convivial atmosphere that works well for groups, with crowd pleasers like Pulpo a la gallega, Secreto iberico, and a paella that many diners enjoyed, while the drinks and brunch experiences are praised for their quality. The overall impression is delicious and welcoming, though some dishes are bland or overly salty, a few desserts miss the mark, and the pricing can feel steep for portion sizes. Noise levels can be high when the place is busy, but the staff are generally helpful and keep service smooth, making Mesón a reliable option for a lively night out or a relaxed brunch.
Nous sommes allés bruncher au restaurant Mesón & c'était une expérience fantastique ! Les assiettes étaient belles & savoureuses, le service était super & les prix étaient raisonnables. L'accueil était chaleureux & nous nous sommes sentis les bienvenus dès notre arrivée. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant pour un brunch délicieux & agréable.
Tout simplement un très bon repas (brunch) servi par un serveur particulièrement gentil & souriant. Une belle découverte, nous y retournerons c'est certain

Service 5 étoiles avec notre serveur Nicolas la nourriture était excellente pleins de saveurs très belle découverte merci à Arthur la musique est excellente
Pour le déjeuner samedi matin, la pieuvre était excellente, tendre & bien assaisonnée, mais le gravlax de truite décevant : tranches épaisses, texture un peu caoutchouteuse & collante, petite portion (une entrée, pas un plat de résistance même le matin) & 2 petite rôties n'ont pas suffit non plus. Café très corsé non inclus avec l'assiette (pour votre information), option végétale de lait d'avoine servi chaud. Donc à moitié rassasiées, nous sommes allées à la boulangerie-pâtisserie après pour prendre un deuxième café & une bouchée sucrée. Donc oui pour la pieuvre, moyen pour le reste de la cuisine, d'où le 3 étoiles.
Assurément dans mon top 3 des meilleurs restaurants de Montréal. La nourriture est toujours incroyable. Les employés en savent beaucoup, on voit que le personnel est formé.

Late review, but still felt I needed to write it. Went here with my friend to catch up. The food was good, however the manager's service was subpar. My friend knew the owner & the manager was only paying attention the my friend (refilling their cup, asking how everything was...) while totally ignoring me & even when my cup was empty, the manager would not even move a muscle & never ackwoledge my presence. The waitress was very nice though. The atttitude of the manager totally made the night a bit awkward. This shoudnt happen at a restaurant like this & I'm quite disappointed when we are both paying customers.
First time going & glad we went there. My friend had previously went for brunch & liked it. We decided to try 6 different tapas to share. Every plate was delicious. They were very accommodating with being gluten-free & dairy-free. My favorite was the octopus, the texture was perfect. We also had a wonderful attentive server. Thank you for the meal, the ambiance & the attention. Will have to go back & try more.
Food is FANTASTIC! Every single item on the menu tasted amazing, the wine selection is great & the waiter was very knowledgeable on the topic. Perfect food & perfect service, will be coming back!!
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.
