About

Your Window on the River...

Located on Lasalle Boulevard at the intersection of Démarchais, in a park setting, Restaurant Crescendo was elegantly built in 2002 at a cost of three million dollars, with the ultimate goal of delighting all your senses. Whether you find yourself on our spectacular 90-seat terrace or in our 140-seat dining room, whose abundant windows offer breathtaking views of the St. Lawrence River and Île-des-Sœurs, you are in for a treat.

You will discover refined, evolving Italian cuisine accompanied by personalized and friendly service. Crescendo is open daily, preparing dishes of exceptional freshness just for you. Whether it's for breakfast, a four-course table d’hôte lunch, or a five-course dinner starting at $41, you and your guests will be thoroughly delighted.

In the dining room, Martin Bernier, the owner, welcomes you into a setting where maple wood, stainless steel, and stained glass blend seamlessly to create an enchanting ambiance. Martin will guide you through the exceptional wines in our extensive wine cellar and advise you on our wide variety of privately imported wines, with bottles starting at an affordable $28.

Crescendo does much more than just serve meals—we offer a memorable experience. We work hard to provide impeccable and personalized service along with an excellent selection of dishes and wines. After all, whether you're celebrating a birthday, a special occasion, a professional success, or simply enjoying a lovely evening out, it's our priority to ensure your complete satisfaction.

Wow !

Wow pour le service, wow pour la nourriture & wow pour l'ambiance !

Une excellente expérience du début à la fin. Les plats étaient délicieux, le personnel était chaleureux & attentionné, & l'atmosphère était parfaite.

Un détail que j'ai particulièrement apprécié : on ne se sent jamais pressé de commander davantage ni de quitter la table. On peut vraiment profiter du moment à son rythme.

Je recommande ce restaurant à 100 % !

Le long du fleuve, bonne étape pouvant être gourmande . Très grand choix de plats, formules, carte. Produits de qualité, bon service mais au niveau de la terrasse il fait très très chaud

Beau restaurant bien situé. Le service est impeccable. Le seul bémol est que l'endroit est bruyant car il est très fréquenté.

Good food & view. Thanks to the chef & unfortunately the waiter was unprofessional & rude. I can say that the guy threw almost everything on the table & ruined my wife's birthday with his behavior.

Wow what a great restaurant & Staff especially Marilynn (the lady who works wends) as a uk military Army veteran having to use a wheelchair now, Crescendo's restaurant went well above customer service i expected & the food was 100% also for myself i was always warmly welcomed from the very pleasant staff, the food was perfect👌 & of good sized portions, as well as a nice chilled background music playing with a relaxing atmosphere👍
I visited 3-4 times in a week whilst visiting on vacation from Ireland/uk to my cousins etc in Montreal
As previously stated from my first ever visit last week whom a waitress i believe was named marylyn ? A dark haired very pretty petite lady was always very pleasant, professional & understanding of my needs to drink unlimited refills of coffee! Lol.
& thus due to her professional customer service etc i have now made Crescendos my no1 choice of restaurant when im in Montreal vacationing to visit my cousins from Ireland.
I would & will very much highly recommend Crescendos restaurant to any future customers with a 5star review.
Once again
A great many thanks
To all your staff at Crescendos
& especially to Marylyn who is a great member & an asset to Crescendos restaurant staff
All the best
Adrian 🤙
