Many patrons praise the restaurant for its exceptional service, noting that the staff is often attentive, professional, and knowledgeable, making it an ideal setting for romantic dates, business lunches, and group celebrations alike. While the sharing-style plates and creative flavor combinations receive high marks for quality and presentation, some guests feel that portions can be small relative to the price, and a few experiences highlighted inconsistencies in service or menu availability during peak times.

Quelle belle découverte pour commencer notre voyage en force!

Nous étions un groupe de cinq & avons eu la chance de goûter à presque tous les plats du menu, certains même en double. Chaque assiette était exécutée avec justesse & délicatesse. Sur plus d'une dizaine de plats dégustés, nous n'avons trouvé absolument rien à redire : absolument TOUT était remarquable.

Les vins proposés étaient tout aussi réussis : un magnifique vin de macération pour débuter, suivi d'un Bourgogne classique parfaitement choisi.

Mais notre expérience n'aurait pas été la même sans notre serveur Jean-Sébastien. Par son enthousiasme contagieux, sa générosité & son véritable amour de la gastronomie, il a donné vie à cette soirée & l'a rendue mémorable.

Merci JS pour ce moment parfait! Nous avons ajouté ce restaurant à nos favoris 🤍

The food is excellent & the service good & enthusiastic. However for the price it didn't feel value was there: portions except for a 2 or 3 items on the menu are quite small & it felt very under staffed. At the price point service needed to be up a notch or a full team of staff.

I used to visit Mélisse regularly before the pandemic, but I hadn't been back in a few years until today. I was excited to return, & I'm happy to say the food did not disappoint. Everything was sublime, & I left already looking forward to my next visit. The service was warm & friendly, though a little on the slower side at times. Hopefully I'll get to enjoy the terrace next time. Overall, a great spot.

All style & little substance. Underwhelmed with the selection, food & service. Took my mom here for Mother's Day Brunch & after we looked at the menu & decided, were informed they were out of 2 menu items *including the breakfast sandwich* . LIKE, WHAT? That is like a coffee shop running out of milk. We were not offered any similar breakfast-y items, just a salade nicoise, which we declined. Also, portions are small & coffee was lukewarm.
