Gibbys Restaurant is located in Old Montreal in the Youville Stables. A charming restaurant, boasts historic stone walls, original beamed ceilings, cozy fireplaces, and romantic lighting. At Gibby's you`ll enjoy fine seafood, including fresh plump chilled oysters, a large choice of the freshest fish and Gibbys' expertly aged and exquisitely broiled steaks, all accompanied by a variety of wines from their extensive wine list.
Gibby's is an iconic Old Montreal steakhouse housed in a historic stone building with warm old world charm and a cozy, candlelit vibe. The dining experience often centers on expertly cooked steaks like beef Wellington and ribeye, with crowd-pleasing bread service and a lemon sorbet palate cleanser between courses, and sides that are generously portioned; service is usually attentive and professional, with many visits praising the staff, though some nights can feel busy or inconsistent. The atmosphere, history and valet parking add to the appeal, making Gibby's a go-to for special occasions, business meals or casual dinners alike. While the restaurant is celebrated for reliability, a few experiences note changes under new ownership or renovations that affected quality, and a couple of dishes have fallen short. When everything aligns, Gibby's delivers a memorable, classic steakhouse experience that keeps guests returning year after year.
If I had to choose only one place to return to when I visit Montreal again, it would be Gibbys. The service, atmosphere & food were a winning combo. We ordered more food & drinks, but was too busy stuffing my face with good food to take all the photos. Yes that's how good this place is. Perfect place for celebrating life milestones!
Gibbys was absolutely outstanding in every facet - food, service, atmosphere - nothing left unturned.
The bone-in fillet is out of this world delicious, the most savory fillet I've ever had, & Isabelle's service was outstanding & made our visit so much more special.
10/10 will absolutely be my top restaurant list for life.

Went to Gibbys Monday April 14 for my partners birthday, amazing service from the second we stepped in. Got sat at Vitaly's Table he gave us the most amazing experience we could've asked for. Great man, great waiter, amazing service & we had an amazing night. I Recommend this location & vitally of course! 10/10. Food was amazing too by the way.
With the new ownership & menu Gibby's has lost its Lustre. The menu is not nearly as varied, the salad has slipped in quality & the service is not the same experienced crew that I loved. The dessert was actually stale. I would recommend RibnReef as the premier Steakhouse. I would only go back if you are looking for the old Montreal experience
Dès notre arrivé dans ce lieu historique jusqu'à la prise en charge de notre serveuse Cynthia, l'arrivé de notre nourriture & la fin de notre repas, l'expérience a été exceptionnelle. L'ambiance est unique, le service excellent & quoi dire de la nourriture! La salade gibbys, buratta, cowboy steak & la patate toute garnie débordaient de saveur! Notre serveuse s'est assurée qu'on ne manquait de rien, du début à la fin, & a même pris la peine de nous prendre en photo polaroid. Après avoir fait plusieurs steakhouse à Montréal, je peux dire sans équivoque que mon expérience au gibbys est de loin la meilleure & la plus mémorable! Merci Cynthia d'avoir rendu cette soirée aussi superbe!
Had a birthday dinner at Gibbys & It was the best thing that we had on our trip to Montreal. The food, service & ambience were perfect! We got assisted by Luke & made our experience unforgettable!
Première expérience au Gibbys. Nous avons eu le plaisir d'avoir Allison pour notre expérience culinaire. Malgré l'âge de l'endroit le décor & le confort étaient optimaux. Nous avons tous les deux pris des morceaux de viandes & ils étaient cuits à notre satisfaction & étaient de très bonne qualité.
Tout était parfait mais je tiens à réitérer que ce qui les démarque c'est la qualité du service.
Gibby is one of the best steakhouse in Montreal, they offer high-quality meat cuts, the Rockefeller oysters, & my best dish there is the garlic snail, & when you take the bread & dip it into the garlic sauce. I highly recommend this place.
We came to Gibbys for a business social event with the party coming from outside Montreal. Gibbys was perfect for the occasion. Service was very good with no problems encountered.Gibbys is in the old town where parking is always a challenge, so we used public transport. The food was excellent but the portions are large so leave room when coming here. Anyway, the experience was very good. Make sure you book, if you plan to come here.

The atmosphere was electric. I met Dr. Wayne Gibbons himself. Everyone in the restaurant is so civil. Would definitely recommend going here, & listening to the Being Civil Podcast. Ask for Eolann'Gibby' Gibbons, the owner, & tell him Eoin Ryan sent you, he'll give you a free dessert!
45 minutes d'attente pour une surlonge de steak, la salade Gibbys est embarrassante… trop originale & sans saveur. Les prix sont ridicules pour le qualité du steak; sans goût & goûte le brûlé. L'accompagnement du steak est à désirer.
Ramener vos manteaux, il fait extrêmement froid dans le restaurant ! Pas chauffé
Côté positif: La soupe aux oignons gratinée est délicieuse & les employés sont superbes ! 😊
Very tasty & well presented food (we had the Gibby's salad & the cow-boy's steak for two). The espresso martinis were delicious, the service very attentive, professional & friendly & the vibe is very cozy.
The perfect place for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends or family!
I will definitely come back on my next visit in Montréal. Merci Gibby's!
My hubby & I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Gibbys. It was our first time & definitely not our last. The restaurant exuded a warm & intimate ambience, perfect for a date night. Our server Tammy was attentive, knowledgeable & friendly. All staff members were polite & welcoming. The food we had was delicious.. we had the lamb rack & filet mignon.. tender, & cooked to perfection. There was also valet service which is an added bonus. 100/10. Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Gibby's tonight. Our server, Sarah, was an absolute joy. Every single thing we ate was fabulous. The blue cheese wedge was so nostalgic I teared up, the pickles were perfection, the eggplant parm was fabulous & the cafe flambé was so much fun. We could've sat by the fire & listened to Sarah tell us stories all night. Next time we're in Montreal, we will absolutely be back, & I hope everything will be exactly the same. Thanks Gibby's, for a great girls' night.
The experience I had this evening at Gibbys was incredible. The atmosphere was very enjoyable, & the service was excellent. We had Genevieve as our waitress, who told us she had been working there for 35 years. She knew her stuff! She gave us her recommendations, & although I'm sure everything you could eat there was delicious, she made sure we had the best options. The food was perfect. Everything came out cooked well, & served hot. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience. Would absolutely recommend.
An amazing evening at GIBBY restaurant! Not only the food is delicious but the service was impeccable & Mr Adel is more than a five star manager, his qualification & humbleness towards our table is an evening not to be forgotten. Thank you Adel!
Everyone should try Gibbies at least once in their life. Everything is always top notch!! From the moment you sit to when the waitress takes your order. The food,The desserts,The ambiance 10/10
