I was completely charmed by this restaurant from start to finish. I went for lunch & shared three entrées & a dessert (a great way to sample the menu) The beef tartare & grilled calamari were absolutely divine, with unexpected yet harmonious flavour & texture pairings that made each bite an experience.
The service was impeccable, attentive, thoughtful, & very accommodating when it came to allergies & personal preferences. Even the bathroom left a great impression: spotless, pleasantly scented, & stocked with an eco-friendly hand soap that smelled as good as it felt.
The decor is stylish & inviting, & the terrasse is a true gem - the kind of place you'll want to linger.
Highly recommend; this spot is a standout on every level!View more

We had the most incredible experience here! We were a group of 11 celebrating a Bachelorette party over the weekend, & everything was just amazing. Our waiter & the staff went above & beyond to make us feel welcome & taken care of, even making sure to confirm allergies & food restrictions. The service was friendly, attentive, & super professional, even with such a large group.
& the food? Absolutely delicious! Every dish was full of flavor & beautifully presented, portions were also really generous.
If you're planning a special celebration or just want a fantastic meal with great service, I can't recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be back!View more

Excellents mets faits maison. Tout était frais & savoureux. Service efficace & courtois. Nous nous sommes régalées. Restaurant très populaire, même un soir de semaine. Je vous conseille d'arriver tôt car niveau sonore élevé lorsque toutes les tables sont occupées. Excellent food made from scratch. Everything was fresh & delicious. Courteous & efficient service. Very popular restaurant, even on a week day. I recommend arriving early. Quite loud when all tables are full.View more

I was at Mélisse for a private work event & I had the pleasure of receiving service from Caroline & Mateo that evening. The food was amazing!! I believe Caroline might be the head chef or owner...I'm not entirely sure, but she was so good about really making sure we truly enjoyed our meals as she brought them out to us. I felt like she genuinely wanted to make sure everything was perfect. Mateo was the most fun & swift server. I very much enjoyed our short discussions & he was so nice about running food or going back to the kitchen for some questions I had about the food. He never made feel like I was asking for too much or if my requests seemed like a chore. I think he really does enjoy serving & making sure everyone has what they need to complete a perfect meal experience. Mateo & Caroline together whipped up a surprise dessert for me that was not on the menu for that evening & it was so sweet of them. It was an overall wonderful experience that I won't forget. I highly recommend Mélisse!!View more

Absolutely amazing experience at the Melisse. The food was fantastic, it was quite literally the best brunch I have ever had. The chakchouka was delicious & extremely flavourful. The service was great, all the servers were very polite & helpful. Last but not least, the atmosphere was wonderful, it was all great vibes & it was full of people. Overall 10/10 experience. Would recommend to everyone!View more

We came here for a weekday lunch. I strongly recommend making reservations in advance because we waited for more than 20 minutes to be seated although a couple of tables were empty. They have a modest fusion menu that varies from Mediterranean cuisine to seafood & tartare. The decoration of the restaurant is very cute & cozy, it has bigger tables for gatherings & also high bar chairs if you want to bring your laptop & work there. The service is rather slow though & might not be efficient during a work- day lunchtime. We ordered "Hummus with Pita", Chicken Skewers with Tzatziki", "Fattoush Salad" & "Seasoned Fish". Hummus & salad were really good. Chicken skewers tasted okay, but fish wasn't seasoned enough & was smelly. I would definitely love to try their weekend brunch.View more

We went for weekend brunch on Saturday (highly recommend making reservations as this place is always busy). It's a fantastic atmosphere to have brunch in, light & airy with lots of greenery that contrasts nicely to the snow outside. We ordered chai latte, hot chocolate & jasmine tea & the pancakes (they came with coffee syrup & were orange flavored). The pancakes were truly amazing. Service was very pleasant. Overall a very enjoyable brunch spot in the Old Port.View more

Wow! We had a great evening with friends here. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warm atmosphere & the rest of our evening reflected that. From being greeted by the owner, our incredible waitress Myriam was phenomenal. She was caring, took the time to recommend the food & wine to us & is a true gem. The food was exceptional. You can taste fresh ingredients & medley of flavours.View more

Honestly one of the best brunch place in Montreal !! (& I’ve tasted a lot of them lol)
The salmon toasts are super fresh - the cream cheese & lemon are an amazing combo.we also had some ricotta & fruit pancakes that were super fluffy & fulfilling
I’ve been there so many times I can’t count!
Definitely recommend for brunch, as well as for the pastries (especially the chocolate croissant)View more

This was our first experience at Le Melisse & can say without a doubt that it won’t be our last. From the moment you walk in, you immediately charmed by the overall atmosphere & decor. Everyone from the staff was attentive to our needs & our waitress Myriam was one of the most courteous waitresses we’ve had the pleasure to be served by. Extremely friendly, she took all of our preferences in consideration & conceived a 4 courses menu customized for us. Every plate was as beautiful as delicious. Hats off to the owner & her daughter in the kitchen. You’ve made this evening memorable for my friends & I. I’d give 6 stars if I could. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. Thank you again to all the staff & I hope you’ll continue sharing your love for good food for years to come.View more
via LibroLoved this place! Service & ambiance was relaxed & food was delicious. Will definitely be back & recommend to others!

Nice & sunny place. Decent but slightly limited brunch menu. Coffee & juices are great, food too.
I would recommend to ensure all waitresses are happy to be there...
via LibroVraiment agréable comme endroit malgré le haut niveau de bruit typique à ce genre de décor.... Mais hautement recommendé!
via LibroOverhyped. Terrible service & treatment by the hosts. Took 30 min to seat us. Lots of items out of stock. We made a reservation & called to confirm but they still made us wait in line. Not going back & I don't recommend. Unimaginative menu.
via LibroOne of Montreal's finest. Menu is always good (& varies from time to time). Staff is extremely professional. Great atmosphere. I would highly recommend.
via LibroWe went there to celebrate our wedding & we could have not been more satisfied with our experience . Everything was perfect , the food , the impeccable service & the Charming decor . The falafel was definitely the best anyone at the table ever had in their lives & we couldn't help but ordering the full menu. We will recommend that place ! Thank you
