    I was there on a Sunday evening which was fairly quiet. Unfortunately there was no piano player. The building is beautiful! From the wooden finishes to the wine displays and Christmas ornaments. It was a feast to the eyes which i enjoyed. Food was alright. Nothing special nor is it memorable. What I ordered: Beef tartar: was not very pleasant to eat because the taste of mustard was strong and overpowering unfortunately. Mushrooms sauté with porcini sauce and hazelnuts: They we’re not wild mushrooms, however it was creamy and delicious. I’m not a mushroom fan but they did win me over with that dish! I recommend. Linguine with fresh truffle: What you see is what you get. It was good nothing special. Duck fillet with orange sauce and parsnip puree: the duck was cooked well! Fatty and delicious. It’s a simple dish. Overall it was an ok experience. The service staff was nice and attentive (table maintenance) but they lacked emotional connection. Would I go back? Probably not. If it wasn’t for the beautiful decor and wonderful location, I would not have gone in. It’s on the pricy end which is understandable.

    Excellent breakfast with a pittoresque view from the upper floor. Very friendly staff. Also a very good option for having a drink in the evening.

    My favourite coffee bar situated in the heart of Thessaloniki. Every single detail of the furniture is just added value to the warm and pleasant atmosphere inside. The view is wonderful, and the wine collection on the second floor too. The staff is polite and professional.

    Great food, excellent atmosphere directly at the pier and a friendly and helpful waiter. The liver with the green apple mousse was nicely plated and tasted excellent. Would definitely visit again and can recommend!

    Garson is not just a great seaside restaurant, Garson has class and style. The garden of the restaurant does not stand out from the other restaurants in the row, but the interior stands out. It is a special experience to sit on the floor with an exceptional view of the bay. The service is at an exceptional level, they are ready to meet your wishes. The food is excellent. There is a large selection of wines. Prices are high. Some parts of the restaurant are a little worn, so they need to be refreshed.

    - Great atmosphere just in front of the seaside, in the heart of the city. It was super easy to get access and had lovely tables outside for food. - Servers were really kind and the organization looked great. - The pricing was not so expensive even though I was expecting more since the location is very central and quite touristic. No problem at all, the price of chocolate pancake with ice cream on top was just around 10 euros I remember ( I mean considering where it is located ) - the food was great quantity and average taste with fresh ingredients. Otherwise, Croque madam could be little more crispy with cheese on top(what I usually used to get..) but it was just a turkey ham toast egg fried. - overall, I loved the experience here :)

    Just an awesome place!! Lovely staff, all very welcoming and smiling, great service! Served our doggy water, without us even asking! The food was so yummy!The atmosphere was exquisite- great view of the sea, piano music…Thank you very much for everything!! Such a Great start of our holiday in Greece! P.S the second floor offers even a better view, a bit more quiet as well (:

    Delightful experience! The atmosphere is so beautiful, to such an extent that you refuse to leave. Our table was closely located to the Piano and to our surprise there was a live performance at Saturday night. The singer and the pianist were in great harmony and their act was simply beautiful! The music was properly volumed, nor too loud, nor too quiet, perfectly balanced… The service was wonderful and the food, twice as excellent. The taste combination was exceptional and the general taste palette was superb! Only slight complaint that I have, with my review which I would not acknowledge in terms of rating are the, prolonged wait for the main course serving (understandable due to the lack of table availability, hence the quantity of customers) and the ludicrous drivers on the main road near the sea, blasting terrible music from their vehicles and frankly, ruining the otherwise lovely performance! I would not consider this as restaurant issue, much more towards the location, which compensates with an exceptional view out to the sea! Having a very captious taste I certainly recommend Garçon Brasserie. 😁

    My favourite place in Thessaloniki. Delicious food, great atmosphere, magnificent seaview and terrace to watch the sunset. And very client-oriented service. I would love to recommend and will go there next time

  • 5/5 Goncalo P. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was unbelievable and the staff were super friendly! The food was so delicious we went two days in a row. If you can, watch the sunset from the rooftop, it was one of our highlights of our trips.

  • 5/5 l-o-l 2 years ago on Google
    This is a classy place. The service is on the highest possible level, and the dishes are very well prepared and served. Everything we tried was perfect. There's a huge wine selection, but don't expect good beers. Obviously, it is an expensive restaurant, with great design and high attention to details. There are two stories with a balcony and an outside sitting area. The balcony gets closed at winter time.

    Wonderful place with great food. We definitely enjoyed our stay and we were very happy with the service, the view and the food. Overall great experience.

  • 3/5 Nena D. 1 year ago on Google
    the garcon breakfast was not enough for 2 people if you are hungry. The coffee is a horrible dissapointment but the view compensates. All in all - 3 stars.

  • 5/5 Maria P. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Kseniia G. 10 months ago on Google
    Very nice restaurant with a view on the sea and promenade. Terrace and 2 floors inside are available, beautiful interior. Good service with helpful staff. It's a little bit pricey, but you pay for location and the view.

  • 5/5 Gábor O. 1 year ago on Google
    The place was unexceptionable. I tried out the Thessaloniki poached eggs and it was over the roof. The bun in it with the cheese was especially good combination. I had a delicious chocolate souffle. And a Greek coffee. If you into the Arabic style of coffee, you will like it.

  • 5/5 Danis D. 2 years ago on Google
    Cosy place. Interesting decoration with great food. Definitely recommended for a visit

  • 4/5 Stoica Ioana M. 2 years ago on Google
    We were passing by Thessaloniki and wanted a nice place for dinner and I can say this was a good choice. It is on the sea front in a crowded area with a nice view. If you want some peace and quiet might not be the place for you. Has tables inside and out and I think it is Pet friendly. They gave us a delicious apertizer on the house and we had pasta carbonnara and mushroom risotto with icecrem parmesan... LIKE OMG what a flavour. Very friendly staff, they thanked us for choosing them. Might be a bit pricey, but I am not sure, you must consider the area you are in.

  • 2/5 Ömür 2 years ago on Google
    The view is absolutely stunning,the food looks great…but thats about it.The taste is mediocre at best for the most, couldn’t finish the risotto even though i was very hungry it was that bad.But if you are willing to pay twice as much money for barely edible food for the location go ahead,this is the place for you.

  • 5/5 Stella Houvardas - C. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent service and the server Sassa was outstanding! We definitely recommend this restaurant.

  • 5/5 Esma Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice view, very good service and delicious breakfast! Although you don‘t want to eat, it‘s worth to drink coffee there. The biscuits served to the coffee are awesome!

  • 5/5 Kristina C. 2 years ago on Google
    The place looks stunning, it's so vintage and cozy, the bar inside is amazing and the tables outside have a great view! The food was very delicious, we had brunch and dinner here and everything was perfect! The staff is also very polite and nice! You should definitely try it if you are coming to Thessaloniki :)

  • 5/5 Panos P. 2 years ago on Google
    Highly recommended. If you like beer try beer MAMOS. Great polite service atmosphere easy. People having Brunch coffee and beer all mixed at around 4pm. And then there is the view of the sea Saronikos.

    Great service. Speak good english. Fair prices

  • 4/5 Παναγιωτης �. 2 years ago on Google
    The space is cozy, the staff was well mannered and polite. They were very eager to serve your needs. The coffee was good and the view was amazing. The only negative part about this whole experience is, the Pancake price to portion ratio. It was hilarious to me. Anyway this place was very classy, just try adjusting the ratio of your plates, according to that price tag.

  • 5/5 Δανάη �. 2 years ago on Google
    The most amazing place to go. Great job everyone. We will come back again.

  • 4/5 Loukas K. 2 years ago on Google
    I love the consistently great quality and style of this place. 2021 update, loved the pasta with beef. The carbonara needs some work though. Generally most dishes could improve. What is attractive about this place, is the location and the service. Without both, I don't think anyone would ever be a customer.

    Very nice place to sit and have some cold drinks. They have amazing non alcoholic cocktails of fruit drinks. Water and digestives are serverd depending on the order. Cocktails are really tasty and in tone with the place. I really liked it.
