Reviews for MARCUS Restaurant + Lounge in Montréal, QC

We had a reservation for brunch at 10h, didn't get seated until 10h20 because they gave our reserved table away to a couple... before us who did not have a reservation. We were not the only people this happened to. It took at least 10 minutes to even geta waiter to get us water. The decor and food prices would suggest that their ingredients would be of quality and that the plateswould be spectacular. Instead, we got a very cold meal 45 minutes after ordering. My girlfriend's lobster omelette was cold,barely tasted of lobster, and was incredibly small for the price. My Benedict was the smallest, saddest Benedict I have everseen. On top of it, the ham was grey and the food was just flavorless (I don't even think they use salt). The best part of mymeal was the wine (which they didn't make) and the bathrooms (which are the hotel's). The staff is nice, but it does notcompensate enough for the horrible time you will have there. Do not go, and avoid at all cost. Overpriced, bland, and a generalbad experience. I rarely give bad reviews but this restaurant really deserves it. Read more

If you want to spoil yourself with a cute brunch, Marcus is the place. I got the lobster omelette accompanied with natural... orange juice and loved it. Take into consideration portions are on the smaller side and prices on the higher end. Worth itthough. Ps. The women?s washroom has the most beautiful decor and its perfect for pictures. Read more

The food was delicious, the decor was modern and green, and the service was impeccable! For food, we were a part of three and... split a shrimp cocktail ($28 for 3), and then I had the fried chicken sandwich with truffle fries. My guests had the chickenwith wedge salad, and the eggplant. For decor, walking into the area felt like passing through an art museum. Upon arriving atthe restaurant, the tables were all beautiful and had personality, plants were thriving everywhere you looked, and there was agreat view of the kitchen and staff from wherever you were sat. They have a semi-patio as well which had all the benefits offeeling like you?re outside, with none of the disturbances of wind or extreme heat. For service, we were greeted quickly uponarrival, and were given options of either patio or interior with our reservation. Our server was attentive and friendly,indulging in our bilingual ways of talking, and ensuring we were well taken care of from start to finish. The only reason Imarked 4 stars instead of 5 is because in terms of menu diversity, the only non seafood option on the Table d?Hôte menu was avegetarian meal (even the chicken option had anchovies in it), or an upcharge option for steak. As well, the prices were highand the portions small compared to what I?ve been used to at other high end restaurants. Read more

Celebrated a girlfriend?s bachelorette at Marcus and can?t express how thankful we are for Bryan and the rest of the staff. They... made our evening so special, and definitely an evening we won?t forget. The food was incredible, the service was first class andthe atmosphere was amazing. We?ll be back! Read more

Marcus is an exceptional restaurant. It has earned - and held - a reputation as one of Montreal's trendiest spots since its... opening in 2019. While it is the place to be seen - especially on a weekend night in the summer - the real attention grabbersare the high level of service and the unassailable food. The service during my most recent visit was perhaps the best I've everreceived. Nicolas was knowledgeable, charming, efficient, aware and always available. My party of six had two teens and hespent as much, if not more, explaining the menu to them and answering their questions. I've always appreciated staff who arekind and considerate with kids. Restaurants - especially ones attached to a luxury hotel like the Four Seasons - often havetrouble living up to the hype. But Marcus - a Marcus Samuelsson institution - does not wilt under the spotlight. Flavours danceand dishes sing. Every forkful was exquisite. Mind you, it's not going to be a cheap night out but the quality of the food isevident. Everyone at the table - some with significantly more experienced palettes than my own - was completely, deliriouslysatisfied. Read more

Amazing ambiance, lovely interior design, waiter was very professional and pleasant. We had originally booked at the lounge but... felt it was a bit loud and requested to be seated in the restaurant. They were flexible and seated us at the chef?s counter. Itwas quite entertaining. The bathrooms are really nice. Also, the fries are sooo good. The only negative was the cauliflower. Ithad a layer of seasoning and flavour on the top but the rest of the cauliflower was a bit bland. Would come again for theexperience and the service. Read more
