About

Gibby's serves as a destination for prime cuts of beef and fresh seafood within a historic stone building defined by wood-burning fireplaces and dark wood accents. The menu focuses on dry-aged steaks that are trimmed on-site, alongside Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, and oysters harvested from cold waters. Traditional sides such as baked potatoes, pickles, and sourdough bread accompany the primary meat and fish courses. Patrons encounter a multi-room layout that maintains an atmosphere of seclusion and warmth through its thick stone walls and low ceilings. The culinary preparation emphasizes classic grilling techniques over open flames to achieve specific textures and flavor profiles. Every selection of seafood undergoes rigorous sourcing standards to ensure consistency across the entire menu. This establishment functions as a dedicated center for meat and aquatic offerings in a centralized urban environment.

Manager is very rude. Rats EVERYWHERE! they sat my grandmother next to the fireplace which had a dead family of mice inside of it & mice coming in & out the walls. I got food poisoning & had to go to the hospital the next day bloody diarrhea, diarrhea that lasted more than 3 days, fever over 102°F, frequent vomiting & didn't even get offered a discount after our complaint! Place is loud u can barely hear the person across the table & the orange juice in my screwdriver (vodka & OJ) was sour. Horrible experience so embarrassing

The service was off their usual standards. Likely just an off night.

Highly disappointed. Food was not properly cooked. Not birthday cake. No croutons etc etc. For over 100$ a person you would expect the same consistency we had for over 50 yrs. The whole table left dissatisfied. But the service was good

The meat was perfect. Service impeccable. Incredibly charming interior.

A Montreal classic for a reason.

This place never gets old. Well actually it gets older & older & thankfully doesn't change. A true landmark in Montreal, & one of the best steakhouses with the most amazing old world decor anywhere in Canada. Stone & brick walls, fireplaces, low ceilings, complete warmth & coziness.

The food never disappoints. Been coming here for nearly 40 years. I was fortunate to enjoy their new lunch menu, $55 for a 3 course meal with many options to choose from, 4 courses if you include the lemon sorbet pallet cleanser before the main course. Bread service & pickles are always included at no extra charge, as is the chocolate mints at the very end.

Gibby's simply has the best French onion soup anywhere. I was so excited when it came I forgot to take a picture, but trust me, beyond delicious, a must-have. The steak au poivre & rack of lamb are always great, & did not disappoint on this visit.

Besides the food, service is always friendly & professional making the whole experience complete perfection. Come here for business day or night or pleasure, best date spot; you will not be disappointed. Ever.

Went yesterday to celebrate our anniversary, the young lady that took us to our table was very nice & warm. Jason was our waiter & went above & beyond explaining the menu & checked on us constantly. For appetizers we had escargots & raw oysters (chuck norris from New Brunswick). The oysters were very fresh & delicious. As part of the table d'hote we also had Oyster Rockefeller - tasted very good as well. The Beef Wellington was amazing, I had the Pepper steak, which was seasoned perfectly; but, I recommend the Diane Steak that my daughter ordered. My son had Gibby's Prime burger (medium rare) & according to him it was juicy & flavorful. The Monte Carlo potato as a side is delicious. We will definitely go back. The food is well worth it but Jason's 5-star service made our dining experience a very memorable one.

We absolutely love Gibby's. It's been our go-to spot for every special occasion for years, & it never disappoints.

From the moment you walk in, you feel genuinely welcomed. The atmosphere is warm & classic, & the service is consistently attentive without ever feeling overdone.

The steak is always on point, perfectly cooked, high quality, & exactly what you expect every time. That consistency is what keeps us coming back.

This place has become part of our traditions, & we'll definitely continue going for years to come.
