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.

Un restaurant relax avec une belle ambiance & belle vu sur le fleuve St-laurent. Le menu est bien aussi. J'ai pris les spaguetti carbonara & c'était delicious. Mes enfants ont pris les filets de poulet (3) ils étaient ÉNORMES.

Ce qui est bien c'est qu'apres le repas nous pouvons allez nous promener derrière le restaurant sur le bord du fleuve.

Dès notre arrivée pour le dîner, nous avons senti une antipathie, une froideur de la part de la serveuse Sonia. & cela ne s'est pas vraiment amélioré par la suite. Mauvaise journée peut-être, mais ce n'est vraiment pas agréable.
Normalement, lors de nos autres visites, tout a toujours été impeccable. La gentillesse du patron, excellents repas & quelle magnifique endroit avec leur très belle terrasse.

C'était notre première visite & nous avons été enchantés par l'endroit situé près du fleuve, de l'atmosphère du restaurant, mais davantage encore, par le service & la nourriture. Nous étions 4 & nous avons choisis des plats différents & ils étaient tous très bons. Nous avons trouvé que nous en avions pour notre argent avec le table du chef, même si de nos jours manger au resto est dispendieux. Nous avions un serveur attentif & très professionnel. Nous y avons passé une très belle soirée & nous y retournerons.
