Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Bâton Rouge Grillhouse & Bar as a place with generous portions and solid options like ribs and steaks, with ribs repeatedly highlighted as a standout for tenderness and flavor. The atmosphere ranges from warm and inviting to upscale casual depending on location, and the bar area is a common highlight for those who sit there. Service is often praised as friendly and attentive, but some visits note slower service, occasional mix ups with bills, and moments of crowding or noise. Value is generally seen as fair to good for the quantity and quality, though a few comments call certain dishes bland or overpriced and a handful of locations are described as less consistent. Taken together, the experiences point to a dependable, family friendly spot that works well for dates, gatherings, and casual dinners, with standout ribs and solid overall quality when things run smoothly.

Beef tartare that was served tastes like'nothing' is usually the result of using a very mild cut of meat (like tenderloin) without enough, or the right kind, of seasoning to punch through the raw texture. This dish should relies heavily on a high-flavor dressing to cut through the fat & provide umami, acid, & salt.The dish traditionally requires sharp, pungent additions like capers, cornichons, shallots, & Worcestershire sauce to contrast the raw meat??? It was chopped with no added ingredients…Lack of punch & ingredients I was really surprised a fine dine restaurant such this??? This restaurant is known for a back ribs as specialty as well but I just find it so so. With the price range not worth it.Please look unto this matter. It used to be a nice restaurant with good quality food. But this time the chef failed sorry.I'm posting this for you to be aware.

Very disappointing experience. The chicken tasted exactly like fish & was not baked properly at all. The lettuce was old & wilted. There was basically nothing in the burger, no sauce, no flavor.

The fries were awful. I paid an extra $3 for truffle & parmesan, & they tasted exactly like normal fries, no truffle flavor whatsoever.

Packaging was very basic, nothing special for Baton Rouge, especially considering the price. Definitely not worth what I paid.

Each of our meals were bland & did not match the price point. Our fried chicken had batter that was still wet on the inside. The main positive was service, our server was excellent & we got served quickly.

The food here is excellent! It tastes good & portions are quite big. Price are ok, especially when you consider quality & quantity. The service is OK, could be better & ambient too. Sometimes it gets a bit noisy.

Bâton Rouge presents itself as an upscale dining experience - the ambiance is sleek, & the prices suggest something special. However, the food doesn't quite deliver. While the presentation is polished & the portions are decent, the flavors are underwhelming. It feels like it's aiming for decadence, but the dishes lack the richness & depth you'd expect at that price point. Service was fine, but overall, it's more style than substance. Not bad, but not memorable.

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!

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.

Thanks! Here's the updated version with the correct name Baton Rouge & still keeping it casual & clear:

I'm visiting Montreal & tried a few restaurants over the past couple of days-most were bland & overpriced. Then I went to Baton Rouge, & it was such a great experience.

I had the chicken tender salad for $22, & it was delicious. The portion was generous, the taste was spot on, & the price felt totally fair. On top of that, the vibe & atmosphere were really nice & comfortable.

Thanks for offering great food at a reasonable price. I'll definitely be coming back!

Great place, prices, & overall experience. You can't really go wrong coming here as they are very consistent in both food & service from the multiple times I came here. The portions are always more than enough & quality, almost never dissapoints.

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.

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!

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.

It still carries the old steakhouse ambiance well, this branch does need a bit of maintenance but the service is some of the best you'll come across in Montreal , friendly, quick servers who know exactly what their doing . Food is good enough & prices are reasonable

Feels like little bit expensive if you take something fancy but the food is great & surprisingly fast. Portions are big. So overall after you are done with food the price impression starts to seems fair :) Service is great & completely bilingual, toilets are clean, & their care about kids is really sweet. We'll definitely come again. & again. & recommend this place to friends.

Hadn't been here since the renovations. Was impressed the the newer & cleaner appearance as the old decor was in need of a renovation. Service was friendly & super quick. Food in the past was very good but through the years, they made many mistakes by getting rid of items I enjoyed like the marinated pork chop. Their portion size had also been reduced to the dismay of clientele as the prices didn't reflect LESS food. The burger was delicious & a great value at $16 in the bar area. Hopefully this trend of good value will continue.
