RESTAURANT + TERRACE | BAR + LOUNGE | IN-ROOM DINING
Indulge in a culinary journey curated by celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson at Marcus Restaurant + Terrace. The menu showcases seafood excellence, featuring three-tier towers of sustainable lobster, crab, sashimi, oysters, razor clams, and Nordic shrimp. Appetizers and mains present enticing options like maple salmon belly, textbook salade niçoise, and turmeric-tinged spaghetti with sea urchin butter, crab, Thai basil, crunchy panko, and a sprinkle of ground Calabrian pepper.
A glass-walled curing room showcases the art of seafood charcuterie, with slices of bottarga, mahi soppressata, and swordfish lardo hanging alongside vibrant scarves and braided ropes. The ambiance is enhanced by a "Master of Ceremonies" curating playlists spanning the 1980s, funk, and lounge music, approved by Samuelsson. Whether on the open-air terrace or in the day and night lounges, Marcus Restaurant + Terrace transforms from a post-work patio destination to a multi-generational supper club in the evening and later evolves into a vibrant nighttime hotspot.
Hot tip: The ideal seats in the lounge are the white velvet banquettes by the window. If unavailable before dinner, try later in the evening when the lounge becomes a speakeasy with a DJ spinning records from the marble-lined booth.
Location
10/10
The Golden Square Mile is nestled at the base of Mount Royal and between Rue Guy, Boulevard René-Lévesque O and Rue University. This 1-square-mile area was once home to some of Montreal’s wealthiest residents and featured unique architecture never before seen in Canada. Most of the elaborate homes that stood here have since been destroyed, but some remain intact and have been converted into museums, embassies, hotels and McGill University buildings.
Take a walking tour of these architectural treasures and admire their mix of medieval, renaissance, Greek, Roman, gothic and Germanic features. Afterwards, head to the Underground City for some shopping and dining below the city.

“You can never go wrong with a Four Seasons property and this one in Montreal is no different. Other than the obvious - well appointed rooms, impeccable hospitality and service, I particularly enjoy the open air restaurant in the summer time or the speakeasy vibes later in the night regardless of the time of year.”
