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.

Bavette de boeuf & frites! Délicieux, cuit parfaitement & assaisonnée juste assez. Bonne portion de frites juliennes, super bonnes! Je recommande!

Aujourd'hui, nous sommes allés au restaurant Crescendo avec plus de 40 personnes & le service était rapide, la nourriture délicieuse. J'ai opté pour une salade César. Bien que la salade soit correcte, elle pourrait être améliorée. En revanche, le dessert était délicieux. Quant à la sangria rouge, elle aurait besoin d'une amélioration, car son goût n'était pas tout à fait satisfaisant. C'est un endroit agréable mais qui pourrait bénéficier de quelques ajustements.

Supper : Excellent tasty gastronomical, many choices of dishes. But, they serve the Margarita drinks in regular glasses & not the Margarita cups (-1*). Breakfast : Very good food, but the fruits that come with most dishes are limited. Prices are reasonable.
