Really nice experience at Jardin Nelson. The service was impeccable! We ordered 2 appetizers: Breaded and baked calamary and Brie with dried tomatoes and basil. Then ordered Pizza Charcutiere and Du marche. All was amazing! The drinks were very good also. Had lychee martini (amazing) and a glass of red wine. The atmosphere is superb, there is a live band playing and the ambiance is really nice as the seating area is outside in a huge garden. They have lots of heaters so dont worry if the weather is cold, you wont feel cold once seated. Other things to note is that they do not accept groups of more than 6, which is perfectly fine to keep the noise level normal with the band playing. Overall experience is a 10/10
I had a LEGENDARY experience here! Food was PERFECT. Nothing I can say should have been different for a better experience! The server was amazing. The vibe, music, decor incredible. I wish I could give this place 6 stars.
The atmosphere here was really lovely — full of plants and greenery, with a peaceful and refreshing vibe, especially on a hot summer day. It’s a great place to sit, chat, and enjoy the surroundings. The food was okay — not bad, but nothing memorable either. If you’re coming for the vibe and ambiance, it’s definitely worth a visit.
Oh my gosh! What a treat to dine in the garden area of this beautiful restaurant! We shared the beet salad, hubby had avocado toast, and i enjoyed the vegetarian crepe. You can not forget to save room for pouding. The best in the area!
Highly recommend the crepes - something very different. We ordered the roast meat and duck confit crepes - very tasty. Personally, I love the duck confit - the mix of flavours with every mouthful is simply delicious. The live music - piano and double bass - lend a relaxing vibe to lunch. The terrace restaurant is beautiful.
We were on the hop on hop off bus and had our tour guide Richard, recommend this restaurant. We took the opportunity after a lovely walk and it was mid afternoon. We were given the choice of inside or the patio and chose outside to people watch. I had the beef tartare and a local beer and my wife had the tuna poke bowl. Both were amazing. I’d love to go back and do the same or explore the menu.
Had a great lunch here! The food was really tasty, and the service was friendly. The decoration was beautiful, and the live music made the experience even better. Would definitely come back!
Unexpected divine experience in the Old Port! From the lush jardin ambience, to live jazz musicians, to baked Brie with sun-dried tomatoes and fresh quinoa salad, and excellent service, Jardin Nelson is sure to amaze. Counting down the days to revisit.
