I visited Rosélys at the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth while traveling from Phoenix, & it exceeded my expectations! It was a busy day in Montreal, but my server, Jean, was incredibly accommodating. They quickly found me a spot & provided attentive, knowledgeable service throughout the meal. He really made the experience feel special.
The food was absolutely delicious, highlighting fresh, local ingredients with beautiful presentation. I enjoyed a full course (entrée & main), & it came to around 150 CAD, which felt very reasonable for the quality & refined setting.
The atmosphere is elegant & welcoming, with that perfect mix of French sophistication & Montreal charm. Thanks again to Jean & the team. I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in the city!
5 stars & highly recommend for a standout bistro meal.
I stayed at the hotel for a week & came to this restaurant frequently. The service was outstanding; the staff at the bar were extremely friendly & pleasant. The food was excellent. The pasta with shrimp in the foto... OMG! I highly recommend this restaurant.

I called to book a reservation a few weeks in advance, & informed them of my peanut allergy. I was assured at multiple points that it would not be an issue for their Carte Blanche tasting menu. I also told my server, Olivier, about my allergy, & he seemed to understand & assured me there would be no nuts. However, our third course had obvious peanuts sprinkled right on top of the food, & he only noticed when my wife asked him about it. We could see him argue with the chef when it was sent back. He explained that the tasting menu *last week* was nut-free, when I booked this. To me, that tells me that he never actually spoke with the kitchen to inform them of my allergy.
The kitchen came up with a delicious substitute in short order, & I was pleased with it, however I find it unacceptable that a dish with visible severe allergens was ever put in front of me.
In addition to this, we had to wait over 20 minutes from me asking for my bill to actually receiving it. The restaurant was not overly busy; I could see my server goofing around with other waiters a few tables away while I waited, after having asked him for the bill. I took it as a major sign of disrespect for my own time, especially when the bill came out to $300 for a meal for two.
The food I could eat was quite good. While I did still tip reasonably, I cannot recommend this place to anyone who has severe food allergies.
Well... we dine out often & at many levels of sophistication & also of ease & fun! We arrived for my birthday celebration. I had looked through AI & the restaurant was highly recommended. We we excited for our experience. It started out nicely, waited spoke to us, shared his favorites, however it took a turn when he took my husbands order only & I was calling to him my appetizer order as he was walking away. All guests orders should be taken before the waiter leaves. Later moving forward some of the food came out, he told me the veggie dish I ordered was a beef dish. He then later returned with the veggies & then later 10 mins he came back with the cold dish he had taken & served it to my husband. I understand if the restaurant is busy but it was slow on a Tuesday evening. Anyways we would have ordered coffees etc but we sat for 20 mins with no attention. They brought out my husband's dessert from his prix fix menu & no birthday celebration was brought out. Sooooo disappointing after we specifically called & shared we were coming in to celebrate. The food was lovely but the service was poor. If you were treated correctly I would recommend this restaurant.
We had an incredible dining experience at Rosélys! We made our reservation same-day & the staff was still able to accommodate us seamlessly. From start to finish, everything felt like fine dining at its best; elegant, intentional, & flavorful.
We opted for the Carte Blanche 5-course experience with wine pairings, & it was absolutely worth it. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared & beautifully plated, truly Michelin star quality. The flavors were rich & refined, & the wine pairings elevated every bite.
Special thanks to our server, Jean, who was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, & made the evening feel extra special. The staff also surprised us with a sweet honeymoon dessert plate, which meant a lot.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a romantic or celebratory dinner in the city!
De loin le meilleur'Afternoon tea' à Montréal. Prix raisonnable à 57$. J'ai dû emporter presque tout le côté sucré, car c'est copieux. Ce n'est pas pour me déplaire. Dommage qu'ils aient fermé plus d'une saison. J'ai perdu l'habitude d'y aller & de recommander cette place. Je compte y retourner bientôt.

Le brunch du dimanche au restaurant Rosélys a été une très belle découverte. Le buffet se distingue par son excellente qualité & la variété de mets savoureux proposés. Le service est à la hauteur : attentionné, avec un personnel professionnel qui contribue à rendre l'expérience agréable.
Petit bémol à noter : un soin particulier devrait être accordé à la propreté des toilettes, surtout compte tenu du positionnement raffiné & haut de gamme de l'endroit. Cela dit, malgré un prix légèrement élevé, l'expérience reste justifiée par la qualité de l'offre culinaire & du service.
En somme, une adresse à recommander pour un brunch élégant & mémorable à Montréal.
Went for tea & had high expectations for a nice ladies' afternoon. The service was very slow. Our waiter was wearing his green union t-shirt & an apron - not the look you would expect. The water for the tea was not hot. The room on the 2nd floor where we were seated looked'tired'. The highlight was the food which was quite tasty but at a $200 price tag for 3 people (no alcohol, just tea) it was very disappointing. If you are looking for a high tea experience, I would recommend trying somewhere else.
I had a very good experience today. Ordered their cold soup & tartare de Saumon The food was a bit juicy which I liked less but overall I recommend their piauvre.

Superbe ambiance pour le brunch, plats savoureux & très diversifiés. Tout était excellent. Seul petite recommandation... mettre des feutres sous les pattes de chaises car le bruit que celles-ci font est très désagréable 😉
Thank you for a wonderful final meal of our Montreal trip. Loved the food, service, & the special attention for the birthday the 5 of us were celebrating (all are turning a "big" number this year). Recommend highly for a leisurely meal.
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.
It was my first time trying afternoon tea & I loved the experience. I wish it was a little more balanced as there were more sweet elements compared to savory ones but everything was delicious. I recommend starting with the second tier, than the bottom one & finish with the top one to get a break from all the sweetness. The service was great. I definetly recommend it!

Restaurant was recommended while waiting for my train. Wonderful service, beautiful view of old buildings through large windows, soft jazz music. Ambient noise is loud. Thd foid was so delicious. I had the ricotta ravioli with mushrooms. Best I've ever had.
We went for the big Sunday Brunch to celebrate a birthday. We found street parking that was free until 1pm (Bonus!). When we arrived in the reception area, everyone that reserved for the seating was waiting to enter. Service was friendly & efficient. Food was good. Tasty, fresh & well prepared. 4* for very good overall experience. There could be more variety. Salad selection was very basic. Nothing special was prepared. Carvery was very good. Generally clean - I had to wipe down some of the cutlery due to water stains/other marks. The server that seated us made a point to wipe down the banquette seating for us as it was overlooked in prep for our seating. To be 5*, more orderly waiting area with someone to direct traffic. All seating & tables, cutlery must all be clean upon arrival. If something is offered, ie salad station, make an effort to offer something special/extraordinary. As a seasoned traveller, this was an average buffet brunch for the price. I do recommend to go because it is a pleasant experience.
Nous avons passé une excellente soirée pour célébrer notre 32 anniversaire de mariage! Le manger était délicieux, excellent service & ambiance très chaleureuse! Nous le recommandons fortement!
