Went for the buffet on a Sunday afternoon. The food presentation, the staff & the atmosphere is amazing. My only comment is the lack of vegetarian food. It's unfair for a vegetarian to pay full price at the buffet for basically salad, pasta & cold pizza. It's 2026, I would have thought a top tier $100 buffet would have more options with tofu, lentils, different types of pasta etc. Besides the lack of options for vegetarian, it was great.
We chose Rosélys to celebrate our son's 7th birthday with a special afternoon tea. It was close to our hotel & the website mentions a kids menu, which made it seem like a good fit.
The hostess was warm & welcoming & seated us in a comfortable booth. That was the highlight of the experience & the reason for the two stars.
Unfortunately, everything after that fell short. Our server took quite a while to come over with the tea sample, & by the time he did, we had already read the full menu & were ready to order. When we asked about the kids afternoon tea, his response was dismissive. He told us there was no kids option, just a smaller version of the adult one. (even if this was mentioned in their website)
When I asked for a tea recommendation for my son, the answer was simply,'Whatever you want, Madame.'
The service felt rushed & indifferent, which was disappointing, especially given that this was meant to be a birthday celebration. The tea arrived first, & the rest of the food came much later. Overall, the experience felt underwhelming & poorly paced.
We also noted in our reservation that it was our son's birthday, but there was no acknowledgment at all. We weren't expecting anything extravagant, just a bit of care or recognition.
This was meant to be a special moment for our family, & sadly, it didn't feel special at all.
L'un des meilleurs buffet pour un brunch . Il y a énormément de choix . que vous soyez sucré ( crêpes , gaufres , mignardises , confiture , chocolat chaud , etc ) ou salé ( pâtes , du poisson , des sushis , de la viande & ), vous y trouverez pour votre compte . Les serveurs sont à l'écoutes. Si tu n'a pas une grosse faim , choisi l'option du petit déjeuné . Car il y a deux services . Le brunch du midi est hyper copieux . Celui du matin est léger , Pas autant de choix avec un prix plus abordable
We visited for the afternoon tea. The tea was really good. A very present flavour green tea. I do recommend. Food-wise, it was far from acceptable experience. The salty options, two were really good. The fois gras & the smoked salmon. Others were inexpressible. The banana cake seemed like artificial, we can have better options from Starbucks. The sweaty options, again two were ok-good. Nothing outstanding. The chocolate pistachio & a small peach-ish option. Location is fantastic, the center of downtown. However, the inside felt extremely empty as a tea room. It seemed like a small conference support room. Considering price, experience & quality, I do not recommend the afternoon tea. It's too expensive for what is proposed.
Very nice place to enjoy a brunch with friends & family. They have a good variety & options from tuna tataki to duck, vegetarian options, pizzas, cheese, smoke salmon, big variety of desserts & pastries, creps, waffles, mimosa, etc. I will come back.

1- Serveur condescends & irrespectueux (Il revenait au 5 minutes; ne connaissait pas le menu; ne faisait pas goûter le vin avant, etc. Si vous êtes différent corporellement, vous l'entendrez jaser de cela a son collègue. 2- Aucune prise en compte pour allergie En gros; il préfère te voir quitter. Avec ou sans epipen. 3- Option vegan: un burger sec. 33$ pas de frites. Froid. 4- Pas d'option mocktail ou sans alcool. & le 7even up étais flat. Belle branche de romarin dans le verre d'eau en gros. 5-Le manager qui s'obstine & ne propose pas de solution. 6-le tartare chaud; pas de déco sur le bison Au moins les invités ont mangé; suivi d'une belle indigestion alimentaire. Voici un 5 étoiles en 2024. ? Par contre l'ambiance est nice. Si tu n'as pas d'allergies; & tu aimes rester dans la zone de confort d'un menu de 2005 & la cuisson t'importe peu; un souper de base a ~40$ le plats: Lets go.
Nous sommes venus pour un brunch & on a trouvé le choix des desserts vraiment limités par rapport aux photos des autres visiteurs sur Google avis. Peut être que nous sommes tombés sur un jour avec manque de personnel en cuisine, je ne sais pas trop ce qu'il a pu se passer ... mais on avait vraiment peu d'options. (Flan pâtissiers, royal au chocolat, pannacotta, viennoiseries, un gâteau exotique ... pas à la hauteur du prix selon moi en terme de choix) Pour le service personne n'est venu prendre de commande a table pour les cafés, on a du interpeller un serveur pour prendre commande.
Ok it's a hotel restaurant. So the vibe is hotel. The price is on the high end but the food is fresh & tasty. The staff are friendly & prompt. Good breakfast buffet & options if you are staying at the fairmont.
In this economy, a $85 buffet better stand toe to toe with a Vegas style; otherwise what is the point?! Sorry to disappoint the girlies, but Rosélys falls short of its price tag. The free/included mimosa is cool & all, but they should be unlimited if you ask me, because the food options are mid. On the other hand, the Montreal Casino's buffett has a more interesting offering at a fraction of the price.
My wife & I went to brunch on October 1st to celebrate our 19th wedding anniverary. We always enjoy our visits as we were married in the hotel in October 2004. Though it has received a huge makeover since then, including the name (formely Le Montréalais) the location generally lives up to the standards we have been used to for many years. This was the first time we were able to celebrate since the pandemic, so we were pleased we finally could.
There were just a few small issues that I would like to bring up. The lamb roast was very tasty, however, I found that using tongs to tear the flesh off the roast to be a bit strange, also wasn't very generous with the portioning. The roast beef loin was tasty but was very tough to eat, I admit it was very rare, but perhaps offer steak knives as an option. The waitress we had wasn't super attentive, we needed to request coffee twice before she brought some over. We neede to request tea twice before she brought some over. We needed to request grapefruit juice twice before she brought some over. The last point is that at the table we were seated at had a splash of something on the windows, not sure what it was but it looks like it had been there at least a few days, looked like it could have been egg yolks. Despite these few things we will continue to celebrate our anniversary here in the future. I bring up these points as a reminder not to let the level of service or quality slip to honour the legacy of the late Daniel Fornara a consumate professional to whom service & quality were a point of pride.
Super décor & très bien situé, habituellement beaucoup de plaisir là-bas avec une belle équipe professionnelle aux tables & derrière le bar. Évidemment, c'est au sein du Queen Elizabeth alors c'est un peu cher pour ce que c'est, mais ça reste super bon avec plusieurs options autant sur le menu bouffe que cocktails & vins!
