This one hurts to write a little. We visited Gibbys tonight for the first time in two years, a long awaited return for us after we had our first child. We used to visit here to celebrate our birthdays & anniversary every year. We love the old building, the ambiance & old school vibes. But the vibes were different all around. After glancing at the menu I noticed it was same but also very different from before, I speculated they were bought in the time of our last visit & this holds true. The general vibes are the same but the service was not as great as we're accustomed to. Not sure if it's because we brought our child with us? Or because we are American? Our server was fantastic, & made us feel welcomed when she noticed we didn't feel that way… but service from coat check & the hosts was rather cold. We also made notes in the reservation that it was my husbands birthday & requested a high chair, but I guess those got lost somehow because they made kind of a big deal about getting us a high chair after they brought us to the table. The food…I know they're trying to keep it original but it was rather mediocre. Steaks were cooked great but any lacked seasoning, the salad was soggy & almost inedible. The Diane sauce tasted different. It just wasn't hitting the same. We also were not offered the classic Gibbys cake that we always have received in the past for special occasions & the polaroid Picture they used to take. We were looking forward to having a new one with our new addition. Also, how is there no changing table at all in this place? Wild. What was supposed to be a lovely celebratory evening & sharing the tradition with our young son. But we don't think we will be back after this.
I visited this restaurant recently & enjoyed a good overall experience. I ordered a salad as a starter, the prime rib for my main course, & a tart for dessert. Everything was nicely prepared & flavorful.
The service was attentive & friendly, which made the visit even better. The only downside is that the prices were a bit on the higher side, especially since I didn't order any drinks.
Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience & worth trying.
I debated even writing this review, as I don't usually leave restaurant reviews-positive or negative.
I received a gift card to Gibby's for Christmas & was genuinely excited to return. The gift card was purchased over the phone & was ready for pickup at the time of our reservation, which went smoothly.
We were seated at a very tight table for two, with our chairs wedged between the backs of neighboring tables. While uncomfortable, we managed to settle in without disrupting other diners.
Shortly after, another couple was seated at the table beside us, requiring us to stand-with drinks in hand-to allow them access to their seats. Unfortunately, this became a recurring issue throughout the evening. Our server, Sebastian, repeatedly squeezed past us to pour water, take orders, & deliver food, frequently bumping into me without offering an apology.
The neighboring table eventually raised concerns about the lack of space & was reassigned, which once again required us to get up so they could exit. When salads, pickles, & bread arrived (all of which were very good), yet another table was seated nearby, & once again we had to interrupt our meal to let new diners through. Menus were passed over my head, & the repeated bumping continued. I was bumped well over a dozen times during the course of the meal without any acknowledgment.
For our mains, we ordered two Gibby's cuts cooked medium. They arrived medium rare. While not prepared as requested, the food was still enjoyable, & we chose not to send it back.
Overall, the food was solid. Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired.
When it came time to pay, I mentioned the gift card. Having served before, I had already calculated a 20% tip based on the full bill, not just the remaining balance after the gift card was applied. The gift card was processed, the remaining balance paid by debit, & the tip entered accordingly.
As I handed the payment machine back & said thank you, Sebastian tore off the receipt, tossed it onto the table, & walked away abruptly.
If a 20% tip is considered unsatisfactory, I would suggest checking in with guests shortly after their mains arrive, minimizing physical disruptions throughout the meal, & offering a simple'excuse me' or'sorry' when repeatedly bumping into diners.
Regardless of the tip amount, acknowledging & thanking guests is just good manners & what I would think is expected when you are representing a business.
While the food was good, Montreal has many excellent restaurants. At Gibby's price point, the overall experience matters just as much as the food-& unfortunately, this experience didn't feel worth it. I'm glad this was a gift card, & I'll be choosing a different restaurant to recommend or gift in the future.
Un des endroits les plus emblématiques du Vieux-Port de Montréal. Dès qu'on entre chez Gibbys, on sent qu'on traverse le temps : l'endroit est logé dans un bâtiment d'époque avec ses murs en pierre & son ambiance chaleureuse de taverne élégante. On y retrouve une atmosphère feutrée, idéale pour un souper en couple, en famille ou même un moment spécial entre amis.
Nous avons choisi une petite salade croquante en entrée, joliment dressée avec bacon croustillant, sauce onctueuse & tomates cerises fraîches. Ensuite, un demi-poulet rôti, bien doré & juteux, servi avec des légumes grillés & pommes de terre rôties, accompagné d'une délicieuse sauce maison bien chaude. Le tout était parfaitement équilibré.
En bonus, une petite boule de sorbet rafraîchissante a été servie entre les plats. J'ai aussi goûté un bloody caesar, bien relevé & joliment présenté.
Le service était attentionné, discret, très professionnel. La salle, avec ses nappes blanches, ses chandelles & sa lumière tamisée, offrait une ambiance parfaite.
Une adresse mythique, à visiter au moins une fois si vous êtes de passage à Montréal - ou à redécouvrir si vous êtes d'ici.
🍽? Une belle cuisine, un cadre historique & une atmosphère authentique : Gibbys reste une valeur sûre du Vieux-Montréal.

A Truly Exceptional Dining Experience at Gibbys, Montréal
If you're visiting Montréal & looking for a dining experience that blends elegance, flavor, & outstanding service, Gibbys at 298 Pl. d'Youville is an absolute must-visit. From start to finish, everything about our evening was crafted to perfection.
The moment we sat down, we were welcomed with their signature pickles simple yet vibrant, the perfect way to activate our palates for what was to come. The appetizers set the tone for the night: the French onion soup was rich & deeply flavorful, the wedge salad is very fresh, & the beef carpaccio was delicate, & seasoned beautifully. Just when we thought it couldn't get better, they surprised us with a lemon sorbet palate cleanser that was refreshing & light.
The main courses were the highlight. Our steaks were cooked with absolute precision tender, juicy, & full of flavor. The potatoes paired perfectly, making each bite feel balanced & satisfying. & the finale, the Gibbons Delight dessert, was exceptional. It reminded us of a smooth, velvety chocolate mousse & was the perfect way to end the meal.
The cocktail menu here is just as impressive as the cuisine. Each drink was crafted with intention & flavor. Favorites from the night included the Steakhouse Martini Gibbys, Obsidienne Silhouette, Fraise Limoncello Spritz, & Le Nectar, all delicious, refreshing, & beautifully presented.
A special thank you to Benna, our server, who truly elevated our experience. Friendly, attentive, & knowledgeable, she made the night even more memorable.
Overall, Gibbys delivered an unforgettable experience. The cuisine, the cocktails, the atmosphere, & the service all came together seamlessly. I definitely recommend visiting this spot when in Montréal, you won't be disappointed.
I went to Gibbys over the weekend & cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Klaude was my server for the evening & was attentive, kind, & took the time to happily answer all of my questions. The night started with delicious, warm bread & pickles. The clam chowder is some of the best I've ever had with a healthy amount of clams in every bite. I had a Gibbys salad & loved the house dressing. My entree consisted of the large Filet Mignon, a broiled lobster tail, & Monte Carlo potato with asparagus. The steak was cooked to perfection & I have never had a twice baked potato so incredibly delicious. The broiled lobster tail was in a class of its own. The dining room has exposed wood beams & has a very intimate & historic feel to it. I cannot recommend this place enough & will make it a point to go back. A perfect place to treat yourself to an incredibly delicious meal that you will never forget. Thank you again, Klaude & crew!
Jai vraiment apprécié l'expérience, c'était vraiment délicieux un beau mélange de saveurs & de textures qui ont réjoui mon palais, les serveurs sont chaleureux & très professionnel, c'est un endroit romantique & assez calme je recommande la salade pêches & burrata un vrai délice 🙂
A (now former) friend of mine tried to tell me that''The Keg' is just as good as Gibby's, if not better, so I asked him exactly what kind of drugs he's been smoking! VERY embarassing & SAD, Owen! I've had the crab cakes at Gibby's & I've had the crab cakes at'The Keg,' & let me tell you, it's not even remotely close! & that's without even mentioning the STEAKS!
Pre-appatizers: Before they even take your order they bring you pickles, bread, butter, bacon bits, etc -- now THAT is service! Everything in this category is excellent, be careful not to fill up on it.
Steaks: These are the best steaks in town, believe me! I recommend the wellington, 8oz tenderloin, & ribeye. Tremendous! Friend of mine had the rack of lamb & said it was wonderful.
Appateizers: Really recommend the burrata appatizer (served with fresh peaches, nice!), beef carpaccio, clam chowder, & the crab cakes. They bring you a green salad or wedge salad to start as well -- IMO these can be ommitted; good but not special. Once upon a time gaspacho was offered as well which was the BOMB! Unfortunately it's no longer part of the starter options which is regrettable indeed.
Fish/Chicken/Other Mistakes: If I wanted fish I'd go to a fish-house, not a steak-house. I mean, really? . . . anyways, the wife had the salmon or halibut or some non-steak item & really enjoyed it . . . she'll come around!
Sides: Monte Carlo Potato, sauteed mushrooms, whatever you like. Quality.
Dessert: Cheesecake with blueberry reduction . . . simply incredible! Ice cream . . . very nice! Chocolate Cake . . . elite!
Drinks: Many excellent wine choices. Whiskey Sour was no joke.
Prices: Very pricey IMO, special occasion type of spot. But, you know this going in & you certainly get what you pay for!
Overall: NO GIBBY'S SLANDER WILL BE TOLERATED! Gibby's is an institution in Montreal, & is somehow not universally hailed as the best place in town! Would love to see the gaspachpo make a return, but hey . . . whatcanyoudo?
Hands down amazing - the food, the vibe, the service, everything.
The prime rib & New York sirloin were perfectly tender, juicy, & full of flavor. The portions are generous - almost too much - but I couldn't stop myself from finishing because everything was just that good.
The experience started strong from the very beginning: warm bread, fresh salad (even the bacon bites deserve a special mention), & it only got better from there. The finale - a chocolate mousse cake with a ganache base - was exceptional. Delicate in every detail, both melty & crunchy, it truly elevated the whole dining experience.
I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Montreal!
