Mélisse is described as an elegant, welcoming spot where both brunch and dinner shine with flavorful, well presented dishes and attentive, professional service. The menu features inventive, shareable plates and crowd favorites like shakshuka, falafels, tartares, mortadella, and thoughtful pairings, with many guests praising high quality ingredients and creative twists. The atmosphere ranges from intimate and chic to lively but comfortable, with a beautiful terrace and a refined yet warm vibe that makes it suitable for dates, business lunches, family meals, and celebrations, including weddings. Several reviews highlight outstanding service and staff who anticipate needs, make strong recommendations, and accommodate dietary restrictions. A few mentions reference slower service or noise when crowded, and some diners felt portions or value could vary, but the overall sentiment remains that Mélisse delivers a memorable, high quality experience and keeps people returning for the consistent excellence and inviting ambiance.

Quel endroit exceptionnel!!!! J'y étais ce soir pour un party de bureau comme on dit 😊. Nous avions le resto pour nous. La nourriture, le service , l'ambiance, l'espace & surtout la propriétaire 😜 font de cet endroit la plus belle découverte si vous ne connaissez pas ce restaurant. Encore & encore !!! On en veut plus des endroits où les gens prennent vraiment à coeur leur métier & où la bouffe te fait jouir tes papilles gustatives. À très bientôt belle équipe xxx
I used to frequently go here for brunch & was disappointed on a recent visit. Service was slow & unfriendly. The highlight was the egg & bacon tart, but the size of the orange juice made me regret paying so much for juice. The salmon tartine also did not have much salmon, but a lot of crusty bread. The menu is smaller than it used to be & lacks some things I would expect of a brunch place.
We were very happy with everything. We ordered the fried chicken sandwiches, which were delicious. Also, the waiter, Mathieu, was very friendly.I'll come again.

I absolutely love Restaurant Mélisse & the incredible team that works there! My husband & I were recently married there, & it couldn't have been a more perfect experience. Before the wedding, we had dined there many times with our families for both brunch & dinner, & every single visit was outstanding. The food is always exceptional. It is beautifully presented, very yummy, & clearly made with care. The desserts are also amazing as well as their drinks! The atmosphere is elegant yet welcoming, & the staff go above & beyond to make every guest feel special. They are attentive to dietary restrictions.
Our daytime wedding was everything we hoped it would be. Benoit & the entire team were amazing. They were attentive, professional, & genuinely kind. Our guests were so happy with everything & the family style sharing plates were a hit. They made sure every detail was taken care of & made us feel completely at ease. We will always be grateful to them for helping create such a memorable day. We can't wait to go back again soon!
We highly recommend Restaurant Mélisse! Thank you!!!
Some of the best service in town! Truly exceptional. Attention to detail, attentive to our needs, caring & genuinely love what they do. Food was delicious as always. Lovely evening ambiance :)
Honestly, there are not enough words in the english language to fully describe how good this restaurant is. From incredibly attentive staff to superb food, there is nothing this team cannot do
My now wife & I decided to use their venue for our wedding & we could not have been happier. Their entire team was incredibly professional, paid attention to every small detail & delivered plate after plate of excellent food. Du fond de mon coeur, je remercie l'équipe du restaurant Mélisse & je recommande à tous de venir y faire un tour!
Mon neveu a fait son mariage au Melisse le weekend dernier. Quelle belle expérience, avec un service hors pair. & la nourriture, tout simplement excellente! On a trouvé originale l'idée de partager tous les tapas entre les convives. On en a eu bien assez, tellement qu'on n'avait presque plus faim pour le deuxième service. Ambiance bien chaleureuse, on a vraiment aimé la place. Je recommande fortement 👌
Mélisse - Une expérience élégante & sensorielle à chaque visite
Chaque passage au Mélisse est un véritable enchantement.
Le décor, à la fois chic, féminin & sophistiqué, enveloppe l'espace d'une ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale, où chaque détail semble pensé pour le confort & la beauté.
Le service est impeccable : attentif sans être envahissant, empreint d'une douceur & d'un professionnalisme rares à Montréal.
Mais le clou de la soirée fut sans contredit le panna cotta au yogourt grec, accompagné d'un coulis de fruits rouges & de framboises fraîches : une création à la fois délicate, équilibrée & d'une fraîcheur exquise. Un dessert aussi beau que délectable, qui clôt merveilleusement une expérience déjà parfaite.
Un lieu où l'on revient encore & encore, avec le même plaisir & la même admiration.
We had brunch here & it was fantastic. I had the savory tart & it was delicious & others had the pancake of the moment which were also wonderful! Lovely spot!
