Le restaurant Gibby's peut paraître un peu guindé au premier abord, mais dès qu'on y entre, on comprend vite que tout est tout simplement parfait.
Le service est impeccable, l'accueil professionnel mais chaleureux, & chaque détail est soigné.
Quant aux plats… un vrai régal du début à la fin ! Tout était savoureux, bien présenté, & préparé avec une grande attention.
Si vous cherchez une expérience culinaire chic, raffinée & inoubliable, Gibby's est une adresse que je recommande vivement.View more

Visited Gibby's after over 20 years. The service was very friendly but painfully slow taking over 3 hours to be served. Although busy, the restaurant was not full.
The escargot were minute, the Gibby salad was excellent & our steaks were cooked to perfection. The price was outrageous. There are better & less expensive steak restaurants in Montreal. Caters mainly to the tourist clientele. Would not return.View more

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.View more

Me & my husband actually visited here over a year ago but l couldn't not leave a review for this place! We visited Montreal as part of our Canada honeymoon travelling over from England & this was one of the first reservations we made after reading about it! We fully enjoyed the steak experience & all the food in each course was exceptional. My husband enjoyed a margherita (one of the best he's had!), & myself possibly the biggest glass of prosecco I'd seen! Cynthia who looked after us was second to none, & even got a polaroid photo of us after hearing we were on our honeymoon. Thank you Gibby's for a brilliant experience.View more

We have been to Montreal many times, but this was our first visit to Gibbys. I can easily say that this is now my favorite restaurant ever! The food, the service, the atmosphere, everything was perfect!
We ordered the grilled shrimp for the appetizer, & it was delicious. We loved the wedge salad with blue cheese & our steaks were perfectly cooked. All I can say is, come hungry because they feed you well.
My only regret is that I didn't come to Gibbys every time I had been to Montreal in the past!View more

May be one of the best lunch experiences I've ever had. Gibby's dining room is located in a beautiful old building, the food was exquisite, service was top notch & the value for money ($50 for a three-course lunch) was excellent. First time tasting French Onion Soup & I can't imagine it ever being better than that. Will be making a point to visit every time I go to Montreal in future. Can't recommend Gibby's enough!View more

Worth every penny. There is no steak around like Gibby steaks.View more

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!View more

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.View more

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.View more

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 experienceView more

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!View more

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.View more

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.View more

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.View more

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!View more

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 ! 😊View more
Frédéric
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!View more

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.View more

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.View more

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.View more

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!View more

Was a disappointing experience. We've heard a lot of good things about Gibby's & had high expectations, but I don't think we will ever return. The dining room has nice ambience but it was cold since the restaurant is old & does not have good isolation or maybe the heaters are not powerful enough. the server has changed our table & made us sit next to the heater which is nice. The bathroom is very dated & doesn't seem to match the price we are paying for dinner. The major disappointment is the steaks. We are 4 so we ordered 2sirloin, 1 rib steak & 1 fillet mignon. All of them are under seasoned, dry, & like rubber. The steaks are pretty thick & we ordered either rare or medium rare. I can see the meat were cooked uneven. They also seem to be cold & the plate was not heated. Our server was nice & she changed my boyfriend's dish for another cut of meat because he didn't like his plate at all, but the replacement was also mediocre, blend & rubbery. It was my parents who is treating us so we didn't want to appear too picky. When I told the waitress our steak has not taste she brought more spices & asked us to put salt on it. I don't think i should season my own steak at the restaurant but I guess she tried the best she can do. The service was the only thing that kind of matches the price of the restaurant.View more

We dined at Gibbys during a family trip to Montreal. After making reservations months in advance, (we live in the U.S), Gibbys was absolutely the highlight a of our trip. My parents have been to Gibbys before during their anniversary & insisted we visit again due to the outstanding steak & incredible atmosphere. However, we were extremely underwhelmed by the service. Server did not offer any help with the cocktail menu as we wanted to order things that appeared to be "not possible" (we ordered a Moscow mule, no suggestions of anything similar, just a "no"). One of our diners is a picky eater, we called before to see if rice could be served as a side, which they insisted it could. Our server denied this being a possibility & didn't offer to check due to the obvious misunderstanding. He also got a few things wrong with our order & gave excuses as to how "this is better or fancier". Our experience of him was rude & condescending as he was insistent that we need to know how he was charging us, "this will be extra, I'm charging you for that…". Also they were out of the kabobs which is not the servers fault but another unfortunate part of the experience as it is my mom's favorite dish. Overall this was very disappointing as we LOVE this restaurant considering the price we expect an award winning experience or at the very least a server who is kind & attentive.View more

Go for the History, Not the Food or Service This was my first time at Gibby's, & after hearing so many good things, I was excited to try it. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype. The evening started on a positive note. My friend & I were greeted by the hostess, & our jackets were taken promptly. This initial service was probably the best we experienced all night. Once seated, the waitress arrived, & things seemed to be moving quickly at first. We ordered a dozen oysters, a cowboy steak, a salad with blue cheese dressing, Monte-Carlo potatoes, & a Manhattan to drink. The Manhattan was fantastic-easily a 10/10. The oysters, which arrived after about 30 minutes, were good but not exceptional due to the accompanying sauces. From there, it was downhill. Service: 4/10 The service left much to be desired. For example, I had a bottle of Pellegrino with a quarter left, & the waitress attempted to take it away. When I stopped her, she poured the remaining water into our glasses without a word & walked off. Later, when we were served regular water, she filled my glass to the brim, making it difficult to lift without spilling. On the positive side, at least the alcohol arrived promptly. Salad: 1.5/10 I ordered the blue cheese dressing salad, & it was disappointing. While the lettuce was crisp, the dressing was terrible. I love salads-almost as much as steak-but this one was a letdown. Steak: 4/10 We ordered the 36 oz cowboy steak rare, & while it was cooked to the right temperature, it lacked flavor. Honestly, I've had better steaks at The Keg. For the price & reputation, I expected much more. While the size was generous & enough for two grown men, the taste was underwhelming. Digestif: 5/10 The lemon digestif was fine-nothing special, nothing terrible. Overall: If you're planning to visit Gibby's, understand that you're paying for the name & the historical ambiance, not the food or service. The total came to $400 with tip, which felt excessive for an experience that was mediocre at best. If you're looking for quality, head to Grinder instead-you'll save money & have a better meal. Verdict: Skip it.View more
