Chez Gibby's on trouve le car homard grillé, entrecôte coupe maison, surlonge coupe new-yorkaise, bifteck au poivre vert de Madagascar ou poisson frais du jour sont les vedettes du menu.
Dans l'ensemble, les avis présentent Gibby's comme une institution du Vieux-Montréal, avec un cadre historique et une ambiance intime parfaite pour les occasions spéciales; les plats de viande classiques, comme le filet mignon, le beef Wellington ou le ribeye, sont souvent salués pour leur cuisson et leur saveur, accompagnés d'accompagnements généreux et de desserts aboutis, tandis que le service reçoit des éloges pour son professionnalisme et son attention dans de nombreuses visites, mais apparaît inégal selon les soirs, avec des critiques sur l'attente, des erreurs de service et des tensions liées au volume ou au manque de personnel; la carte des vins et les cocktails est fréquemment mentionnée comme un atout, parfois avec des recommandations solides, mais le prix élevé est aussi évoqué, certains ressentant un bon rapport qualité-prix au regard de l'établissement et d'autres estimant que le coût est trop important pour la valeur percue; plusieurs clients profitent des gestes lors d'occasions comme anniversaires ou fêtes (gâteau, photo Polaroid, flambage à table), et beaucoup repartent en recommandant le lieu tout en admettant que le niveau de constance peut varier avec le temps et le changement de direction; malgré ces nuances, Gibby's demeure un symbole du steakhouse traditionnel à Montréal et l'essentiel des retours convergent vers une expérience riche, chaleureuse et mémorable, même si certains trouvent le coût élevé et les expériences récentes moins brillantes que par le passé.
Had a wonderful evening here with my girlfriend. The blue cheese wedge salad was one of the best I've ever had & the beef Wellington was excellent. Our servers Vitali & Marie-eve were awesome. Would definitely come back.
I have been a patron of Gibbys my entire life. My family & I have been celebrating special occasions here for decades. My most recent experience last night was so disappointing, I felt I needed to leave a review. I was looking forward to a lovely evening for my mother's 75th birthday. I had ordered the beef wellington before & It was excellent. However this time around, the entire meal was mediocre at best & the service, terrible. Firstly, for one of the most expensive restaurants in the city, I was surprised to enter the front door to a very old smelling atmosphere. Like dirty carpets & old wood. I think some renovations are in order. The bathrooms are also dingy & old which is never a good indicator of cleanliness. My filet mignon which I ordered medium (a common cuisson) arrived rare on the inside. It was returned back to the kitchen & was reheated cut open & returned back to me well done & dry. It was sent back for a second time & when returned back was now blue. Even rarer than the first time. My mother who's birthday it was, ate her meal by herself. I did not want to return my meal back yet again for a third time. Most of the steak was left uneaten. We ordered dessert & coffee & finished our desserts by time the coffee arrived in a dirty cup with crusted on food that the waitress was scraping off in front of me with her nail. She seems annoyed when I asked for a clean cup, perhaps that was why I got water spilled all over me from her. Not even an apology. My mother was so upset that her birthday meal was ruined & her dinner companion (her daughter) sat & watched her eat, she cried. She felt she wanted to speak to the manager. My 75 year old mother has yet to be called back after leaving TWO messages. It seems that gibbys does not pride itself on the service & food quality it once did. I was sorry to hear the st sauver location closed down. I hope that is not an indication on what is to come for old montreal.
Resolution: Two bring this review up to date. Last weekend, Gibby's invited myself & my mother back for an all expenses paid dinner as an apology for the terrible experience. It was a lovely dinner. The food was good & the service was excellent by Nancy who was a doll.

Our server, Catherine, provided us with a wonderful experience! She was so much fun & had so much enthusiasm & knowledge. She clearly cares about what she does & I hope management recognizes how hard working & skilled she is! Everything we ate was delicious. We enjoyed the beef tartare appetizer & beef Wellington for dinner. The meal was perfectly paced. The dessert drink, named the Brazil, was so much fun & delicious. They flambé the drink at the table, giving you a great show. Thank you, Gibby's, for the amazing memories!
We had a wonderful time & truly enjoyed our experience at Gibbys. The food was excellent from start to finish, & Genevieve, our waitress, was fantastic very friendly, attentive, & made the evening even better! We highly recommend the Oyster Rockefeller, & you can't go wrong with the filet mignon or the beef Wellington.
Gibbys Restaurant is a Family Tradition every December 30th! We always enjoy the beautiful ambiance & great service! We recommend the Rib Eye Steak, Grilled Salmon, Platter of large Shrimp, Beef Wellington, Cornish Hen! The salads were delicious. A must try are Gibbys Monte Carlo potatoes! For dessert we all ordered the Chocolate Mousse, it was the perfect ending to our beautiful dinner!
We celebrated Christmas Eve at Gibbys, & it was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt festive, cozy, & timeless-perfect for a special holiday dinner.
The food was outstanding. The Beef Wellington was beautifully cooked & rich in flavor, the lobster was fresh & perfectly prepared, & the ribeye was tender & full of depth. Every dish felt like it was made with care & respect for classic steakhouse tradition.
Service was attentive without being intrusive, which made the evening feel relaxed & celebratory. It was one of those meals where time slows down & you're fully present with the people you're dining with.
An unforgettable Christmas Eve dinner. We'll definitely be back for future celebrations.

Wonderful meal at Gibby's this evening. It has been years since I was last there & I was happy to learn that the food, service & atmosphere were still at the same impeccable level as I remembered it. The Beef Wellington was superb as were the Cornish Game Hens. Our server Adib was nothing short of splendid. Cannot recommend Gibby's enough!
A quintessential old school steakhouse. Our server Amin was amazing & the food was excellent. The Beef Wellington was cooked perfectly. Would definitely recommend & would return 10/10
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?
Celebrated my birthday at Gibbys while in Montreal. Started with table bread, steak tartare & escargot. All delicious. Beef Wellington was one of the best I've had. Great service & ambiance as well. Highly recommended in you are in Old Montreal!

Service was top notch. Pacing of the meal was perfect. We didn't feel rushed. Food was all you would expect from a long standing traditional steakhouse. The Beef Wellington was perfectly seasoned. We dined indoors which was cozy. The outdoor terrace looked quite inviting as well.
The food is delicious & the beef wellington was the best food I've ever tasted. Even Girdon Ramsey's Wellington is nothing compared to this. So amazing! The service was amazing & everyone was so kind & nice. We got complementary desserts which were absolutely jaw dropping. The atmosphere feels like you just walked into Paris!

Delicious food & great service in between courses. We were never waiting for a long time.
They had a great way of adding a few little things to make the experience better. Pickles with the bread, a small lemon sorbet in between appetizers & the main course to clear the pallet, & mint chocolates at the end to have you leaving refreshed.
They didn't know the family / a la cart style we were looking for (different steaks cut for each man to try on their plate) but they learned 😏
Would recommend the Burrata, dipping the bread in the escargot flavoring, the sirloin, the lamb chops, &/or the beef Wellington as a must.
Diane, our server was fabulous & very attentive to details. The food? Equally fabulous! I defy anyone to finish the Beef Wellington. It is that big a portion. Diane even suggested the wine that would go well with our meal. Great! No surprise that we return to Gibby's every time we're in Montreal.
Lovely date night, loud inside with everyone talking but still enjoyable. The food was really good & the service was amazing. We tried the filet & the Beef Wellington both were tasty
The service & atmosphere are stellar. I went for my birthday & got a complementary cake.
The food: I've had the filet mignon & beef wellington. They were both amazing, cooked to perfection & seasoned wondefully. The only complaint I have is the borderlaise sauce for the beef wellington was too sage-heavy, but the steak, duxelle, & puff pastry were so good sauce was not necessary. The iceberg salad is one of the best salads I ever had, & you can get extra bacon to your liking. The mocktails are sweet & flavorful. The fries were okay, not much seasoning but cooked perfectly.
Our server Klaude was great & I hope to get him as our server next time I go.
