For my birthday, my friend took me to Terrasse Nelligan, & it was my first time there. What a beautiful discovery! The atmosphere was absolutely wonderful, the restaurant was gorgeous, & everything was just perfect.

But I have to give a special shoutout to our waiter, Salim. His service was truly exceptional! He was so kind, attentive, professional, & welcoming, with the most genuine smile. He made us feel so special & really added something extra to our evening with his positive energy & it definitely deserves to be mentioned .

I will definitely be back!

Terrasse Nelligan is one of those places where you don't just go for a drink or a meal - you go for the experience. Located on the rooftop of the beautiful Hotel Nelligan in Old Montreal, this spot feels like a little escape above the city, where you can slow down, take in the view, & pretend for a moment that you're living in a movie scene (even if you're just there trying to get the perfect Instagram photo like the rest of us!).

The first thing that grabs you is the view. Looking out over Old Montreal, with the historic buildings, rooftops, & the city skyline stretching around you, it's absolutely breathtaking. The atmosphere feels elegant but not intimidating - a place where you can dress up a little, enjoy yourself, & soak in the moment.

The sounds are just as beautiful: the gentle buzz of conversations, the clinking of glasses, the music in the background, & the energy of Montreal below. It creates the perfect rooftop ambiance.

The smell of delicious food, fresh cocktails, & the summer air mixing together makes you want to stay longer than planned. The taste definitely delivers - the drinks were refreshing, beautifully crafted, & the flavours felt like they matched the rooftop experience. Every sip felt like a little celebration.

& the feeling? That's what makes Terrasse Nelligan special. Sitting there with the breeze on your skin, surrounded by beautiful views & great energy, you can't help but feel grateful to be experiencing such a wonderful place.

The staff were warm & attentive, & the entire experience felt memorable from start to finish. It's the perfect place for a romantic evening, a celebration, or simply treating yourself because sometimes you need to enjoy a rooftop drink & pretend you're fancy - even if you still have emails waiting for you tomorrow.

A true Montreal gem. Five stars without hesitation!

What really made our evening special was Maïté, our bartender. She was incredibly kind, attentive, & made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Her recommendations were perfect, & her friendly energy truly elevated the whole experience. Can't wait to come back! 🌇🍸

Late afternoon drinks on the roof terrace of Hotel Nelligan on a beautiful spring day. Great place to relax after a busy travel day. Terrific views of the river & old port area.

Was a beautiful terrace. Portions were small for brunch & a little cold on the day we went. I had the sweet maple waffles but they were too sweet

We visited the Terrasse Nelligan with a party of six
The terrace itself is beautiful, comfortable, & has a great atmosphere. Our server, Evgeniy, was pleasant, professional, & provided excellent service throughout the evening.
Unfortunately, the food experience did not match the quality or pricing of the restaurant. My wife & I ordered the seafood tower & were surprised by how small the oysters were compared to the appetizer of six oysters we had ordered earlier, which were excellent. The half lobster was also extremely small, & the claw had not been opened or cracked before serving.
We asked for assistance, & our server brought us nutcrackers. Because the shell was so hard, lobster liquid sprayed onto several people at our table, including my shirt & pants. For a restaurant positioned at this level, serving lobster without properly preparing it first is disappointing.
What was most frustrating was the lack of response from management. Our server informed the manager of the situation, but she never came to our table, acknowledged the issue, or offered an apology.
With a bill exceeding $800, we expected much better attention to detail & customer care. While the setting & service from Evgeniy were excellent, the food quality & management response left us disappointed.
