🌸 Terrasse Nelligan - Old Port🌸
We went to Terrasse Nelligan in the Old Port for one of my girlfriend's birthday brunch to start off our day, & it was such a great choice. The atmosphere was amazing with beautiful views over the Old Port, & our waitress was so sweet & attentive. We all had the Purple Haze drink, which has a hint of lavender, & it was absolutely incredible-I would honestly go back just for that drink.
Two of us had the lobster roll, which was next level - so fresh, buttery, & flavorful, easily the star of the meal. Two of us had the Nelligan burger with cherry marmalade, which was good & a solid classic, but definitely didn't compare to the lobster roll. One of us had the roasted butternut squash, which was delicious & comforting, & we also tried the shrimp bao buns, which were super tasty as well. We shared a cheesecake for dessert, which was the perfect sweet ending.
The views here are gorgeous, & on a nice sunny day, it's the perfect place for brunch or lunch. They also have valet, which is super convenient in the Old Port. Overall, Terrasse Nelligan is 100% worth visiting, especially for the lobster roll, the Purple Haze drink, & the beautiful summer vibes. Can't wait to go back!

Simplement le meilleur Ceviche de la vie 😍 J'en rêve encore.
Le service est exceptionnel, notre groupe a été servi comme des reines!
La vue est magnifique, surtout lors du couché de soleil.
Assez dispendieux mais les goûts y sont assurément ☺?

Fantastic rooftop views & food worth coming back for. Expertly shucked oysters, & exceptional cocktails. We came early, so the service was awesome. Our server was relatively new but very attentive & knowledgeable. I'd recommend getting there earlier to nab a table by the water view!

Terrasse Nelligan was okay, the food was a little bland & their water is lukewarm. The service was good, but very slow. My table ordered the oysters (very good, 7.5/10) the tuna tartare (7/10), truffle parm fries (8/10), the katsu chicken sando (very dry, chicken tastes like frozen food, it wasn't katsu it was nuggets, sauce is only on top so the bread is very dry & it's not very pleasant when you try to eat it; 4/10), the salade niçoise (5/10, the tuna tasted weird, the rest didn't really taste like anything) & finally the shrimp bao (6/10). As for the drinks we had strawberry mojitos, they were good. Overall, it was an ok experience, I wouldn't recommend this place for their food, but it's a nice spot for pictures.

Nice for a few cocktails during the week 4ish. The food is not as good as the view but OK. Saturday brunch has a DJ that creates a lively atmosphere but is actually too loud to talk to the people you are with.

Nelligan Terrace is a top spot if you're looking for lively energy, stylish crowds, & stunning rooftop views. The atmosphere here is what really makes it: a retractable awning offers comfort whether you're enjoying the sun or hiding from a surprise rain shower, & the music is always popping, setting a vibrant tone without overwhelming conversation. It draws a young, attractive crowd, making it feel like a social scene worth checking out.
The food, however, is a mixed bag. The ceviche is definitely not what you'd expect if you're used to the bright, citrus-forward flavors of Mexican-style ceviche-it leans in a more neutral, subtle direction that might not satisfy traditional ceviche fans. The oysters are on the smaller side, but they pack solid flavor for their size. Skip the hummus-bland & forgettable. The chicken katsu sandwich is more of a classic fried chicken sandwich than a true katsu, but it's still tasty. The French fries are well-executed, crispy & seasoned just right, & the roasted butternut squash is a surprisingly solid choice if you're looking for a comforting side.
Drinks are another strong point here-well-balanced & thoughtfully made, perfect for enjoying while taking in the rooftop ambiance.
Overall, Nelligan Terrace is more about the experience & the setting than it is a foodie destination. That said, a few menu hits & good drinks keep it worth the visit. Just be sure to make a reservation-the place fills up quickly, & it's not one you'll want to miss.

Reserved for a birthday. We got the furthest table from the terrasse. Ordered 2 drinks & a 34$ nasty cheese board. Then we left.

We had the pleasure of being welcomed by one of their managers, Benoit, who was incredibly attentive & showed a keen eye for detail. You can tell he's hardworking. We were also served by Eduard, who was just as kind & meticulous. In short, they made our night.
