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.

Classy restaurant with great lighting & decor. I got great service by Roxanne at the bar & Steve the owner makes sure everything is just right. The official launch will be in the next 2 weeks but so far wow. Spicy tuna rolls are to die for, & the wine selection is excellent. For a restaurant of this caliber it's affordable. I highly recommend

I have to say that honestly, this is one of the best services & dinners that I had in a long time. As soon as I walked in with my sister, we were greeted by a host that was smiling & was very responsive in sitting us & having someone take care of all our needs. The whole staff members are very proactive & love their job & you can see that everyone has a passion for working there. We were even able to meet the owner & the general manager, plus the chefs all came to say hi & ask us how the food was. This is definitely a place that you want to try & enjoy the amazing cocktails & ambience. If you like sushi, it is one of the best places I've ever ate in my life. The menu is complete & the food is unbelievable.

Love this new spot in downtown Montreal. Everything was delicious! The passion fruit martini was really good, the nigiri & sushi were the best! The service was excellent too, they were very attentive & always smiling. I will definitely go back.

Lors de ma visite au Restaurant Zoelle avec ma famille, j'ai vécu une expérience absolument inoubliable. Les nigiri sont tout simplement incroyables, probablement les meilleurs que j'ai mangés de ma vie : une explosion de saveurs & une fraîcheur irréprochable. En plus de cela, les cocktails sont à tomber par terre - parfaitement équilibrés & pleins de créativité. J'ai également opté pour une dorade entière grillée, & je dois dire que c'était un pur délice. La chair était fondante, parfaitement assaisonnée, & cuite à la perfection. Le décor du restaurant est chic & très élégant, offrant une ambiance sophistiquée tout en restant accueillante. La musique, quant à elle, ajoute une touche vibrante & contribue à l'atmosphère raffinée. Le service a été exceptionnel du début à la fin : attentif, chaleureux & professionnel. Je recommande ce restaurant à tout le monde, que ce soit pour un dîner en famille, entre amis, ou même un événement spécial. Une véritable perle à découvrir sans hésiter!

Absolutely blown away by this new spot! The food is incredible-sashimi prepared right in front of me was unbelievably fresh. The decor is gorgeous, creating the perfect vibe for a night out. Don't even get me started on the drinks-they were just as amazing. Can't wait to come back!

Je suis mitigé. L'endroit est jolie & très class. La nourriture était bonne, rien à redire. Mais le service est plutôt lamentable. Nous étions au bar samedi soir dernier & notre serveur Goolam nous a servi. Il nous a peine adressé la parole du bout des lèvres nous demandait si tout était ok sans plus. Pas de sourire, pas d'accueil. Il n'avait pas l'air d'avoir envie d'être là & n'était pas capable de s'exprimer en français comme c'est de plus en plus le cas à Montréal. L'endroit était vide mais c'est toujours comme ça en janvier donc rien d'alarmant. Je reviendrais si le service s'améliorait. Un service plus courtois, souriant, & amicale nous fait toujours passer une plus agréable soirée. A suivre… je sais que parfois le personnel peut être difficile à trouver. Je leur souhaite une belle continuation car la nourriture & l'endroit mérite d'être connu tout de même. Je pense que les touristes apprécieront également. L'emplacement fait très « business ».

Had a great team dinner at Zoelle! The sharing menu was awesome-loved the Blue Fin Tuna Tataki, Spicy Salmon maki, Rib Steak, & Roasted Eggplant. The Tiramisu & Mille Feuille Baklava were amazing too. Everything was super tasty, & the service was spot on. Definitely worth a visit!
