I need to get this off my chest: although it's been a while since the Baton Rouge on Rue des Jockeys in Montréal was renovated, I still haven't been able to get used to the new look. I really miss the old design - it had a warm, dark, almost classic steakhouse feel that gave the space a lot of character. It felt cozy, even a little upscale. Now, the atmosphere is colder & more minimal, & for me, something essential was lost in that change. I know some people might prefer the newer, more modern aesthetic - but personally, I find it a step backward.
That said, I keep coming back - & there's a reason for that. The service here is consistently excellent: attentive, professional, & always friendly. The food is just as good as ever. Their signature ribs are as tender & flavorful as you'd hope, & their hand-selected Canadian AAA steaks are always cooked to perfection, tender & beautifully marbled. Honestly, you can't really go wrong with anything on the appetizer menu either - everything is well-portioned, satisfying, & made to share. Their cocktails are another highlight - thoughtfully mixed & surprisingly refined for a casual grillhouse.
What really makes this location stand out is how versatile it is. Whether I've come here for a dinner date, a family meal, a birthday celebration, or even a business lunch, it's always delivered. The bar area also adds a nice touch for a more laid-back visit, which gives it even more flexibility.
It's not my favorite Baton Rouge location, simply because I miss the way it used to feel - but when it comes to food, service, & value, it still sets the bar. & for that, it remains a go-to.View more

The atmosphere is warm & inviting, & the staff is attentive & friendly, which made the visit enjoyable. The ribs were good but nothing to rave about - tender but lacking that wow factor. The coleslaw, unfortunately, was a miss for me; it didn't complement the ribs & felt like an afterthought ,the fries were cold when they came to the table & baked beans were drowning in tomato sauce.The food was all right but not memorable. I enjoyed the service & the setting more than the actual meal. If you're going for a relaxed evening with good service, it's a decent choice .View more

My family & I found this restaurant in an online search. It attracted our eye with the variety of foods offered, & it had something everybody could enjoy. When we arrived, we were greeted immediately & sat. Our server came over a few minutes later & asked us for drink selections, & they were received in less than 5 minutes. I ate a hamburger, my wife ordered chicken with rice pilaf, my son had the rack of ribs, & my daughter ordered a salad. Everything came with generous portions & tasted great. My son's ribs fell off the bone, & my burger was perfect. Everything was flavorful & hot upon given to us. I felt the pricing was very fair as the most expensive dinner was my son's ribs at $30, which is very fair for the product served.
Our server was great, the atmosphere was perfect with lower lighting, & it was not loud at all. I enjoyed the fact that it was a casual restaurant, but the staff dressed very nicely & gave outstanding customer service. It made you feel like you were at a higher end establishment with good food, service, & prices. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area, it won't disappoint!View more

We visited Baton Rouge in Montreal last night. The atmosphere was decent - a mix between a sports bar & a pub-style restaurant. Service was friendly, but a bit scattered; we were helped by four different servers throughout the evening. Everyone was kind, though it felt a bit disorganized.
The food came out quickly & the portions were huge, but the quality didn't quite match the quantity. The price of the food & drinks also did not match the quality. Appie, two drinks & mains over $160.
If you're looking for generous portions of okay food, this might be your spot. But if you're after the'best ribs in town,' you may want to keep looking.View more

Love the full & half rack Ribs, they are delicious!View more

This is a lively place, full of friendly staff & good food. I discover they have a Monday Special on ribs. How were the fall off the meat ribs? Just reference the attached'AFTER' photo. They had a nice glaze with plenty of flavor. Don't forget to finish it off with a Creme Brulee.View more

You can't go wrong at this Baton Rouge restaurant. With an extensive menu, from salads to lobster & steak, customers will get excellent quality no matter what is ordered.
But if you want me to recommend something... you can't go wrong with their amazing ribs. They are, by far, the best in the city.
If you decide to sit at the bar, you can enjoy a smaller rib portion, but you can also enjoy their delicious, juicy, fully loaded burger & fries.
Lots of parking & easily accessible by subway.
A great option for good food.View more

We came to Bâton Rouge for dinner & overall had a great experience. The atmosphere was cozy & welcoming, & the staff were attentive throughout the evening.
The standout, as always, was the ribs-still incredibly delicious. Tender, juicy, & packed with smoky flavor, they never disappoint. At just $29 for a full rib dinner, the value is excellent, especially considering the quality & portion size.
One thing that left a bit of a sour note: they had a happy hour drink special, but it only applies if you physically walk over & drink at the bar. If you order the exact same drink from your dinner table, the price jumps back to regular. It doesn't make much sense & honestly feels a bit unfair to seated guests.
That aside, the food quality & service make this a spot I'd still recommend-especially if you're here for the ribs.View more

Baby back ribs have gone down in quality & gone up in price. Too much sauce on it...lay off the sauce guys....baked potato was great with toutes garnier! Server was great & new Reno was ok but it makes a nice refresh so cudos to them.....I like the old dark & woodsy kind of look....parking is great 👍 . Bar look not for me. Too much glass meaning I get it you want to make it look big & spacious but when it's a house of mirrors look .....ehh not that great 😃. Overall great place!View more

Baton Rouge Grill House is a great spot! I had the ribs & chicken, & they were both delicious. The ribs were tender & full of flavor, while the chicken was juicy & perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend for a tasty meal!View more

Lower priced option for a Lunch steak. It's been consistently good actually for the Steak Frite which comes with healthy helping of fries of Garlic Mash. It's not my first choice for a great SUPPER steak, BUT, at lunch, for a reasonable price, it is a good option. Also had their ribs & burgers there & they don't disapoint. Also had a few selections of soups which are Harty & very good tasting. Always leave there satisfied.View more

The ribs were very dry. I asked for diet coke & kept getting regular coke. This was very dangerous as I am a diabetic.View more

Food was good, but I have had better. I had the rib steak & found the quality was so so. Veggies are boiled & big - creativity or taste in making them a little more special would have been nice. The atmosphere is what you make it, & we had a nice time & did not feel pressured to leave.View more

J'y étais avec un groupe pour regarder un match de soccer. Ils ont des téléviseurs pour les événements sportifs, donc c'est cool. C'était bien mais sans plus. Je ne suis pas particulièrement impressionné par la cuisine. Ceci étant dit, c'est peut-être que c'est moins mon genre de restaurant (steakhouse) & que je m'attendais à un menu plus traditionnellement cajun vu le nom du resto. Ou c'est peut-être le malaise gastrique que j'ai eu plus tard en soirée. Je ne sais pas. Les crevettes tempuras étaient bonnes. Les ribs étaient bonnes. Les frites étaient plutôt oubliables à mon avis; en juliennes trop minces & petites, & elles n'étaient pas assez consistantes pour goûter la pomme de terre. La salade de choux était originale & savoureuse! Service courtois. Belle terrasse.View more

I've been a Baton Rouge fan for many years, but the restaurant near Décarie is the worst. The last two times I went there, the ribs were overcooked & had very little sauce.View more

The rib steak left much to desire. Very veiny, I mean very veiny. It was so tough to cut that I had to constantly make sure everything else didn't go flying. The waiter was great, the atmosphere is what's to be expected, & there is no line up to get in. I'll try this place again at some point & hopefully it's as good as it normally isView more

I used to eat at Baton Rouge quite regularly, but stopped going there about 6 months ago. I almost always ordered the rib steak which came with slaw & a baked potato or fries. It was OK, but they kept raising the prices & when they raised it to $54, I didn't think it was such a good deal anymore. They probably raised the price again since I last ate there. After they did the renovations, they got really pissy about charging me $5 extra for a little extra sour cream on my baked potato beyond the little dab they give you. The manager Jimmy was a total prick, was extremely hostile & rude to me when I complained about the extra charge. I contacted head office the next day because of the rudeness & one of the assistant managers called me & promised me a complimentary steak dinner to apologize & show good will, but I was later contacted by the owner who reneged on that promise. After being subjected to a half hour lecture about why he didn't feel a free steak dinner was warranted, he promised he would "take care of me" next time I came in. After charging me full price PLUS $5 for extra sour cream, he gave me a $25 gift certificate good on my next visit. I went back one final time to use the credit toward a rib dinner which was awful. The "rack & a half" they offer on the menu, was, in reality, a rack & a tiny extra piece (about 1/10 of a rack for $8 extra) & it was overcooked & dry. The place to go is Marven's. I go there 2-3 times a month. They serve up a huge 16 oz rib steak which beats Baton Rouge to hell. It is delicious. In addition they include a huge Caesar salad & home fried potatoes all for $39. The service is amazing & they don't nickel & dime you for a little extra courtesy. Anybody who ever tries a rib steak at Marven's would never even think about returning to Baton Rouge. I don't like being reneged on after a promise had been made & I am done with Baton Rouge.View more

Went there recently to celebrate my father's birthday & were treated like royalty. All of our food was delicious & looked spectacular when it hit the table. Besides that the overall service was top shelf & beyond. When we arrived we were originally quoted a 30 min wait but Mary & Natalie worked their magic & had us seated well before that. Our server ( I feel bad I forget her name) was pleasant, efficient & knowledgeable, made our ordering experience so enjoyable. We had steaks, ribs, a burger & spinach dip. Everyone's food was spot on. Thank you to Adam & Suri Brother & the rest of the kitchen staff as well as a huge Thank you to Dean for making this a great night. It's good to know that a bunch of Scoops can get a great meal here anytime.View more

I really like the potato soup, the ribs are great, & the steak. But I miss the desserts they use to have- I think the supplier changed.View more
