Nestled in the heart of Villeray, Mesón, a Spanish-inspired restaurant, opened in 2014. However, the story of this restaurant began years earlier.
"We wanted to offer a neighbourhood restaurant to the people of Villeray, to thank them for making us feel so welcome when we opened Tapeo," says Victor Afonso and Sébastien Muniz, two childhood friends who in 2004, opened the tapas bar Tapeo, located two blocks away from Mesón.
With the growing success of their first restaurant, there was no reason for Victor and Sebastian to change this winning formula. The duo then became a quartet with the addition of chef Marie-Fleur St-Pierre, already in charge of the ovens at Tapeo, and Pedro Oliveira, one of the mainstays of the tapas bar.
But by opening Mesón, the four partners faced an interesting challenge: "The regulars at Tapeo tended to compare the two restaurants," says Victor.
Marie-Fleur St-Pierre is a star chef in Quebec, and a visit to her bistro-style restaurant lets you discover the full extent of her talent. Comforting Spanish-inspired dishes, attractive decor and a relaxed atmosphere all work together to create a truly enjoyable dining experience. This is a great place to discover the flavours of the Iberian Peninsula.
Take a dip in the outdoor pool at Jarry Park with friends while enjoying the free Wi-Fi. The pool is also one of the few that’s free on weeknights and on weekends. Located a few blocks from the park, in the heart of the Villeray district, is Meson, offering original Spanish-inspired cuisine. This unique bistro will surprise you with its unpublished specials, inspiring scenery and relaxed atmosphere. Discover flavours from the Iberian Peninsula in good company!
