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.

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.

I had an amazing dining experience at Bâton Rouge Grillhouse & Bar! The food was exceptional-juicy, perfectly cooked steaks that are consistently highlighted as signature dishes for their quality & taste. Other popular items include the Garlic Bread au Gratin, Tempura Shrimp, & a variety of salads. The atmosphere is warm & inviting, striking a perfect balance between cozy & upscale vibes. The staff were attentive & made us feel very welcome. This place is a must-visit for anyone looking for a top-notch grillhouse meal. Highly recommend!

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.

Bâton Rouge is an excellent upper midrange grill house. Excellent staff, high quality food, & quite chic decor.

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.

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.

Review for Bâton Rouge Grillhouse & Bar

I was truly impressed by this restaurant. The atmosphere is warm, relaxing, & beautifully curated - perfect for enjoying a meal without any rush.

The food? Absolutely excellent. The steak was cooked to perfection - tender, juicy, with a deliciously crisp crust that melted in the mouth. The salad was fresh & crunchy, served with high-quality ingredients & paired perfectly with the main dish.

The sides, like the caramelized onions & sautéed mushrooms, were full of flavor & perfectly balanced. Every detail was thoughtfully executed - from the presentation to the attentive yet discreet service.

Perfect for anyone looking to enjoy something excellent after a long, intense day.

A special thank you to Joyce, who was incredibly kind, polite, & attentive, & to Chef Hawk, who delivered an absolutely perfect steak. Truly top-notch!

Highly recommended!

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!

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.

I'm writing this review not only about one time I've been there but two times I was there. Just from the first sentence you should consider this place when visiting Montréal or even if you're a resident. The reason is that when I'm on vacation I don't like going to the same restaurant twice because I've already been there & I prefer to find another place to explore more. Which brings me to the review itself. The staff at Bâton Rouge is really kind & understanding. They make sure to understand exactly what you want instead of assuming & ordering something you don't want. The reason I say this is because in a couple places I've been the server wasn't very kind & assumed our orders. But now onto the food. The first time I went I got myself their standard burger which I believe was named "Bâton Rouge Burger" but I could be wrong, I asked for no bacon on it because I've had a few bad experiences with bacon burgers. But bacon or no bacon I think the burger was amazing, honestly it was like an actual burger not like those from ©McDonalds or any other burger place. The second time I had a Ribeye steak & let me tell you, it was great. The steak was done medium well & turned out perfect with a hint of pink in the middle just as I expected, the surface was also dark brown just as it's supposed to be. I recommend getting the Ribeye when coming, they really care about what the quality of the food is. I really enjoyed my time at Bâton Rouge & I will definitely be coming back. Thank you!

It's very basic for a bbq place. Prices are too high for the quality served. Server need to be trained better.

The quality of the food is not what we expected. The vegetables tasted like they had been sitting in the water. Atmosphere very louder & isn't even lounge. They change restaurants design is sad.

We are regular customers. We were very disappointed with the food quality & service this evening, Sure, it was very busy & staff were overwhelmed. So, solution, bring in more staff on a busy Saturday night. We complained that the two Tuna salads order were not fresh. Tuna smelled raunchy & was not edible. Manager came over & basically told us to stuff it, that we didn't know what we were talking about. Very poor form!!! Hopefully, they will get it together. We remember the times when service & food were great,

This place gets filled up pretty fast which unfortunately slows down the speed of service, but not the quality of it. The food is good, ribs are their go-to, but their spinach dip is pretty decent as well as their salmon tartare. I also would say to ask for your fries to be extra crispy if you are ordering them as a side.

Would recommend for gatherings.
