| - Wonderful place to eat in the touristy area of Old Port/Old Montréal.
After attending a terrific performance at Cirque du Soleil we were hungry for a late dinner and some cocktails. After walking around the area looking for a place we peeked into the back courtyard of Jardin Nelson and immediately knew we found our spot.
The back courtyard at night is all lit up wonderfully with large umbrellas overhead, flowered plants and trees, along with a band and amazing singer crooning old standards. The setting is magical and we loved it. In fact, we went back on another night during our vacation to Montreal to enjoy it again. We ended up with the same waitress both times and she was just outstanding, and she remembered us too.
Great service, fresh tasty food, good drinks, romantic ambiance, live music in the back courtyard - we loved it all. Highly recommended over many other spots to eat at in the area, and I feel it's even better to come here without children at night if looking for a more romantic and adult kind of dining experience.
Just a terrific spot to sit outside and dine at when the weather is nice while being serenaded with the cool sounds of Sinatra, jazz greats, and other sweet sounds.
