Review Summary

Molenne is widely celebrated as a standout culinary destination in Montreal, particularly praised for its exceptionally fresh seafood, creative ingredient pairings, and impressive wine program. Many guests highlight the cozy, inviting atmosphere and the attentive, professional service as key factors in their memorable experiences. While the quality of the dishes, including the raw bar and unique desserts, consistently earns high marks, a portion of diners find the portion sizes small relative to the price point and note occasional inconsistencies in service speed or seasoning. Despite these varied perspectives on value and wait times, the majority of visitors consider the restaurant a must-visit for its refined approach to local ingredients and warm hospitality.

Molenne Fantastic seafood-oriented restaurant in Mile End

Visited on a recent busy Saturday night. Serving staff were in demand, but always available & we never felt rushed.

While décor (classic bistro with some local flourish) & service are great, the food is incredible. Standouts to me were the scallop crudo (with raspberries!), the razor clams - which were cooked in beer, & the cavatelli with mussels. While seafood is the star, the PEI steak was cooked to simple perfection & the Lamb Brick was a delicious take on'pulled' meat.

Rounding things out were inventive cocktails (savory Tomato Highball - my choice) & a beyond the usual wine list. Very accessible with a little consult of the sommelier.

All in a great restaurant that stands out in a city full of them.

Amazing experience all around. The food was out of this world. It was all so fresh, prepared & was plated meticulously. The cocktails I had were all very good, & the wine list was massive with so many options. The environment of the restaurant is very vibey. The staff were all very kind, knowledgeable, attentive & very well mannered. Overall, eating here was an amazing experience & I cannot recommend it enough!

If you're a seafood lover, Molenne is a must-visit. Every dish reflects thought, creativity, & a true passion for flavor. I love discovering new ingredients & unexpected pairings - & this place absolutely delivered. The cocktails were just as impressive, & the wine list offered unique selections by the glass, allowing me to try perfect pairings throughout the meal.

I even got to learn the story behind the restaurant's name - a thoughtful detail that made the experience even more special. Be sure to ask when you visit Molenne ;)

Exciting wine program! Hamachi crudo was a standout, as was the basque cheesecake.

Molenne ended up being a great time for us as well as being a nice place to bring out-of-towners for a quintessential Montreal food experience. Some of the dishes were a miss, but would definitely recommend the oysters, garnished potato, lamb brick & the braised cabbage.

The atmosphere was super quaint & the restaurant was full on the Tuesday night we were there which made for a lovely experience.

The service was great & our server was very kind & helpful with the menu as well as helping us to pick a great wine, but the dishes came out very slowly, about 40 minutes between services.

That being said, would still recommend Molenne for a romantic night out, or for a business dinner.

Thank you Molenne for the lovely evening!

Excellent cuisine, Great choice of wine with different & interesting option & a someliere who knows her wines.

I have to say that serive was not what one expect at that price point: slow with long wait. Perhaps missing staff... This was particularly annoying as next table received super service from host (friends?). Maked us feel second class...
