Review Summary

Reviews portray Zoelle as a standout dining destination with a stunning setting and a fusion concept that blends Mediterranean and Japanese influences. Service is repeatedly praised for attentiveness, warmth, and expert recommendations across the menu, with several mentions of knowledgeable staff guiding choices and making celebrations feel special. The food earns high marks for freshness and presentation, from sushi and sashimi to tartares, octopus, lamb meatballs, braised beef, and a dessert strong point, while cocktails like the passion fruit martini and espresso martini are often highlighted favorites. The atmosphere is described as elegant yet inviting, with some noting a lively vibe and others appreciating a calmer, refined dining room, though a few reviews call value into question and note occasional slower pacing or menu gaps during peak times. Practical perks such as nearby valet parking, a newer lunch option, and a well stocked bar are often mentioned, and overall Zoelle is seen as a memorable and repeatable experience worth returning to for special occasions, dates, or group dinners.

I had a fantastic experience at Zoelle, the staff were friendly & attentive throughout the evening. Everything from the food to the drinks were amazing along with some of the best & freshest sushi I've had in Montreal. It's definitely a must try restaurant in the city.

A highlight of the evening was when the chef personally came to our table to discuss our food sensitivities. This thoughtful gesture not only demonstrated their commitment to customer care but also added a personal touch that is all too rare in dining today. The chef took the time to explain the menu options, suggesting delicious alternatives that catered perfectly to our needs.

Throughout the meal, the service remained impeccable, with staff checking in to ensure everything was to our liking without being intrusive. Each dish that arrived was a masterpiece, beautifully presented & bursting with flavor, reflecting the chef's passion & expertise. The exquisite complexity of flavors in every dish was absolutely remarkable, with each bite revealing layers of taste that delighted the palate & showcased the artistry of the kitchen.

I went to Restaurant ZOËLLE on Feb 16th for my 7 year Anniversary which always falls on Valentines Day dinner menus.
At first glance your like woow...Great Bar .
Then the fun began...looking at what to eat.We had two starters.Buratta with fresh tomatoes & the best calamari EVER! Then we couldn't decide on our main sides so we ordered Filet mignon ( the meat was cooked medium & was delicious.I've still salavating!) We also had the 4 large garlic shrimp in a garlic with parsley infused oil...omg! Sooooo Fresh & not overcooked.It was crunchy & very flavourful.We also took a side of thousand layered potatoes...sprinkled with sea salt..love love.Lastly for the veg component we have brocolini in a tahini sauce accompanied by a tangy yogurt minty sauce.An abundance of Mediterranean flavors in your mouth...oh & I almost forgot the sprinkle of toasted pine nuts.It all complimented together.For dessert....oh my that dessert has got to be the best dessert I've ever had in a restaurant.It was a baklava Mille feuille with pistachio filling.I swear this dessert was so good that I almost asked for a second one...to take home lol.
The service was excellent.They have a good selection of wine.Our drinks were tastey & well boozed!
The owner Steve made his rounds & took the time to chat with us.I appreciated this.It shows that he truly cares about quality & customer satisfaction.
I highly recommend this place for date night, business meeting, girls night.
This restaurant has 3 floors & abundance of space.Go check Restaurant ZOËLLE out.Trust me you won't be disappointed!
Yours truly

My wife & I had the pleasure of dining at Zoelle last night, & we couldn't be more impressed. From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel welcome & attended to our needs with a smile.
We started with a delicious cocktail that set the mood for the evening. For our main course, we shared the Cod & some sashimi, both of which were exceptional! The flavours were vibrant, & the presentation was beautiful.
Overall, Zoelle offers a delightful dining experience with great food & impeccable service. We can't wait to return! Highly recommend!

Incredible experience! Chef Edwin's dishes were outstanding, Steve & Kayla made us feel truly special.

If you're looking for a delicious drink, the Passion Fruit Martini is a must have, the Beef Tartare with fries was perfectly seasoned, & the octopus was tender & flavourful.

Upscale yet inviting-can't wait to come back!

The service for booking an event was impeccable. Steve, the owner, personally went above & beyond to ensure everything was perfectly prepared, even with the challenge of accommodating a large group at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances. Truly exceptional service, & I look forward to trying the restaurant's Mediterranean & Japanese fusion cuisine soon!

This was definitely a top dining experience! I highly recommend. The moment you walk through the door you notice the attention to the decor, the atmosphere & the dedication of the staff. Shout out to the Chef Sydney for the warm welcome. I've been privileged to enjoy his food before. This time he really outdid himself. I would give 6 stars if I could!

Just to dim the lights a little, there was a bright light over our table & just the candle would have been enough. Besides, great food, service, location, welcome Steve & company, we thoroughly enjoyed & will return!
