The Most Vibrant Steakhouse in the Greater Montreal area. etc. offers a modern twist on the steakhouse experience while adding a Mediterranean influence. With a menu that goes far beyond our numerous cuts of premium beef, including A5 Wagyu, all aged to perfection and grilled to your preference; we offer majestic seafood platters and phenomenal pastries; all served in an electric ambience, to the beats of our guest DJ’s - This is not your Grand Father’s steakhouse!
Overall, reviews portray ETC Steakhouse in the Playground Casino as delivering exceptional service, attentive staff, and superb steakhouse fare with standout wines and generous portions, creating a warm, upscale atmosphere that makes it a top choice for celebrations and date nights; the dining experience is described as memorable and often compared to Michelin level service by some, with no tax pricing noted as a bonus, though a few critiques mention casino noise, occasional misfires such as overcooked fish, bland or underseasoned sides, and high prices, yet repeat visits and strong recommendations are common.
My friend & I ordered the Surf & Turf platter, mille feuille baked potatoes, drinks (Pomara & wine) & desserts (Chocolate Fondant with Raspberry Flowing Core (Gluten Free) & Madagascar Vanilla Crème Brûlée). As well a seafood linguine to take home (the taste was good but the I think quantity of seafood can be more). Everything was exceptional (although the shrimps are small), especially the aged bone-in ribeye steak & lobster tail. I would recommend the dish but not the shrimps & I find it can be of better quality. Overall for steak/lamb/lobster, I definitely recommend this place for anyone to go. The service & staff are friendly & know the dishes well. Throughout the meal, we had different staff making sure everything was going well & if we needed any help, someone is always available.
Where do I start!! First time at Etc.

Cesar salad was delicious. We ordered the surf & turf, whiskey sauce , fries , potatoes & grilled veggies & everything was absolutely amazing. The only downside was the dessert. The cheese cake & the caramel creme brule cake was disappointing. Not alot of flavors & barely any coulie on them.
After trying many steakhouses across Montreal, this one clearly stands above the rest. It is, without question, the best of the best. This has quickly become a favorite spot, & it will certainly be part of the regular rotation. Absolutely loved the experience.
Roberto est un super serveur cela fait 2 de suite que je l'ai! . La viande est de bonne qualité. J'ai enlevé une étoile, car je n'ai pas élément la salade, mais le serveur c'est occupé de nous.
Very good atmosphere & amazing food the staff is what makes it great.. Ilona our bartender , we also met Alessia the hostess & the managers Freeman & David
From our arrival with Alyssia who took us to our seats to the above & beyond service with Freedman ( our waiter) this was an excellent dinning experience. David the manager made sure all was in order. Thank you to all for making our quite dinner for two special. Easy to go back with service like this ....Cheers

Le service a été parfait. Le serveur a repondu à toutes nos questions, nous a suggéré un très bon vin.
Le seul hic, cest que cest très bruyant vu du DJ (bar) qui est situé à l'entrée du resto.

Nous sommes allés un groupe de 9 personnes pour l'anniversaire d'un ami! Le service était rapide, les serveurs très gentils & patients. La musique pourrait être un peu moins forte (ma préférence). La nourriture était EXCELLENTE!!! À y retourner!
