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.
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.
Great steakhouse. The food was delicious. The Beef Wellington was cooked perfectly. The only disappointment was service became super slow once the restaurant got very busy & the key lime pie was not super fresh.
Amazing meat . The Wellington was really well made & the Steak a la Diane had an awesome sauce & texture. Salads were also very good, especially the blue cheese cream. Portions are very generous so go for appetizers only if you're really hungry. Will come agin for the rib steak.
Hubby & I had dinner & loved the service & atmosphere. The food was good although I was not impressed with the quality of the beef. I had the filet & hubby had beef Wellington. Steaks were cooked to perfection & appetizers etc. were great. I loved that they served dill pickles along side the bread. Pickle lovers will definitely love this option vs bread.
L'ensemble du menu est assez dispendieux, mais la qualité de la cuisine & du service vaut le détour. Nous avons choisi en entrée des huîtres Rockefeller & comme repas le Boeuf Wellington. C'était délicieux ! Mention spéciale à notre serveur : le service était rapide & attentionné, nous n'avons jamais manquer de rien ! À noter que pour les anniversaires, un gâteau est offert & une photo est prise ( style Polaroid) La photo est ensuite placé dans une carte , pour que vous puissiez garder un beau souvenir de votre visite 😊 Pour le parking, il y a un service de valet à l'entrée du restaurant!

The quality of the food at Gibbys deserves to be among the best French restaurants in Canada. When coming here, no one can ignore the signature dish like beef wellington. My sister & I chose the following dishes: - Beef Wellington (main course) ~ $85 - Diane Steak (main course) ~ $83 - Crème Brûlée (dessert) ~ $18 - Domaine Jean-Jacques Confuron Chambolle-Musigny 2020 (French red wine) ~ $286 one bottle - Cosme Palacio Rioja 2018 (Spanish red wine) ~ $52 one bottle Once you try the beefsteak here, you will understand why Gibbys is known as the best beefsteak restaurant in Montreal. The medium rare beefsteak at Gibbys is always perfect, the red meat is tender & juicy, melting in your mouth. Every dish is prepared with high-quality ingredients & beautifully presented, showing that Gibbys is a classy restaurant. Besides the excellent beefsteak, the sauces are equally delicious, but the most favorite is the Bordelaise sauce - a classic French sauce named after the Bordeaux region of France, famous for its wine. The sauce is made from dry red wine, bone marrow, butter, chives & demi-glace sauce. I chose the Domaine Jean-Jacques Confuron 2020 (France) & my sister chose the Cosme Palacio Rioja 2018 (Spain). The 100% French pinot noir I chose was a typical Burgundy - it had rich, ripe fruit aromas, especially on the palate, with intense red berries, & earthy aromas such as forest floor, dried leaves & bay leaves. On the palate, the wine was ripe & sweet, quickly turning sour & the finish was a strong one with a certain structure. This Chambolle Musigny is very elegant, very pleasant on the palate with a strong, expressive finish - a great wine to accompany a meal at this stage. The Spanish Cosme Palacio is a good choice for the price, a delicate combination of blackberries, plums, crushed stone, concrete, wet earth & fresh mushrooms. It had a rich flavour - a complex finish that enveloped the palate. At Gibbys, this is the definition of a fine dining experience. Not only the luxurious space, quality dishes, Gibbys also affirms its class with professional service style. The plus point for Gibbys is the hospitality, enthusiastic & thoughtful service staff are always ready to advise customers on choosing dishes & choosing wine to go with. A perfect date night with my sister in yellow candles & melodious music, in addition, crème brûlée - a classic French dessert is the perfect ending to the meal. Price does not include 15% VAT & 25% tip. Total bill is over $750 for 2 people with 2 bottles of wine, a completely reasonable price. CA$377 / 1 person ~ 6.9 million VND (US$278)
Wait time is short, main was served right after appetizers. Location is perfect for tourists, being an attraction while also withholding its professional service Lamb rack & beef Wellington is definitely worth trying.

Gibby's is a must go to when you visit Old Montreal. The service was impeccable. Every bite was a wow! Serving on pewter plates was charming given the building dates back to the 1500's. The sorbet between meals you don't see very often. We had Beef Wellington & rack of lambs. The meat was so tender. The Morocco potato was amazing. You could taste the onion & bacon pieces & the potato was so creamy. The crème brulee was made with vanilla bean was topped off with fresh strawberries... delicious! Ending the meal with a dark chocolate mint wafers was the grand finale!
A true 5 star steak house experience in Montreal! An absolute must! The experience starts off in a beautiful heritage building in Old Port of Montreal. You will find helpful staff & white tablecloth tables. We came here with a large party so we ordered almost everything on the menu to try. The cowboy steak is a true show stopper. Flavorful, well served & not chewy. Perfect to share. The mains come with a salad, a trou normand & side (Monte Carlo potato is a must) Beef wellington was so well done! Flaky on the outside, tender meat on the inside. The sauce that came with it was also excellent. For dessert, the chocolate Gibby's is excellent. Like a chocolate hazelnut mousse with a nice textured layer in there. Staff was attentive & knew the menu well. Highly recommend!
When I mentioned I was vegan, our waiter mentioned several on the fly options they could custom make for me, & they did not disappoint. Pasta with vegetables sounds ordinary, but it was made with flavor & passion. Very large portion. 10/10. My friend also mentioned her Beef Wellington was the best she'd ever had. Atmosphere was nice, felt like a good tribute to the historical origins, but would have enjoyed a few plants throughout. Will definitely visit again.

This was my first experience at Gibbys & I was blown away. The location Is in this beautiful old Montreal building & there is a valet to park your car. The wine menu is quite extensive & found the wine of our pick with no problems. There was jazz music playing in the background & the place was packed even on a Tuesday night. I took the filet mignon with a side of lobster. The lobster was small, yet still very good. The filet mignon left me speechless. Best I've ever had. My husband got the beef Wellington & it was AMAZING. The palet cleansers were the perfect addition for each course. Our waiter was ok, not the best service, but still a polite gentleman. Would 100% return again
Montreal is known for its culinary excellence, our experience was far from it. On recommendation, we reserved. The location & ambience were lovely, we looked forward to the experience. I'm not sure what the problem was with our seating, there seemed to be ample space, however 2 waiters continuously bumped our chairs when going by, not just a few times but over & over. My husband ordered beef carpaccio to start, which they did not have. When it came to dessert, he ordered crème brûlée, which they didn't have either. My beef wellington boasted approximately 2 tbsp of duxelle, I took the pastry off because I found it hard to believe they would send it out of the kitchen like that & sure enough the duxelle was almost non-existent. We overheard the table next to ours order a second bottle of wine & were told there was no more of that brand, so they would have to order something else. It can also be noted that our server seemed to go out of his way to be rude. Each time I thanked him he would just walk away as I was speaking to him, he seemed unhappy that we were there. Not having ample product, repeatedly banging into customers & overall rude service, I have had a hard time choosing which steak house has been my favourite during our travels, Gibbys has made it very easy to determine which was the worst
Still a great old Montreal experience. Impeccable service as always, even though there was an ownership change. Best old fashioned in Montreal! Amazing raw oysters. I'm a beef wellington afficionado, & it's getting more & more difficult to find. Gibby's still has it on the main menu (most places now are a special if you're lucky), but it's smaller than it used to be (8 Oz) , like everything else post-pandemic. One thing they don't have anymore are the showmanship table desserts like bananas Foster or cherries jubilee. Still worth a visit especially coming from the USA taking advantage of the good exchange rate.
un sans faute...! un des 10 meilleurs restaurants à vie que j'ai goûté, le serveur Yvon est parfait, gentil, & très professionnel wow ! Les huîtres Rockefeller sont juste parfaites, le boeuf Wellington tendre à souhait , les pickles, l'assiette de crevettes géantes, les patates farcies, le dessert spécial Gibbys, l'attention du (sorbet au citron) ❤️ le serveur a même passé le petit aspirateur sur la table , seul petit point à améliorer & encore c'est un détail , les sachets de sucre "menu" avec le café , fait cheap un peu , des cubes de sucre ou un sucre st - louis ou lantic de montréal ou sucre brun ferait encore mieux mais c'est un simple de détail ❤️❤️❤️😍wow merci Gibbys
We were at Gibbys for my mother's birthday. Our server Mourad was amazing, attentive, patient & always smiling. The included salads, baked potatoes, fresh bread & birthday cake were all delicious. The Beef Wellington & steaks were good. This wasn't our first time dining here & as usual the ambience was inviting & warm.
