Review Summary

Gus is widely regarded as a cozy and intimate neighborhood destination known for its lively atmosphere and high-quality meat-focused menu. Patrons frequently praise the expertly prepared steaks, the uniquely prepared Caesar salad, and a diverse selection of wines and cocktails. While the restaurant offers a welcoming and authentic dining experience supported by a knowledgeable and friendly staff, the small space makes advance reservations essential. Most guests find the pricing fair for the quality provided, and the majority of experiences reflect a strong appreciation for the creative, flavorful dishes and the warm hospitality that defines this popular local spot.

Wanted to love this place but fell way short. Staff is very nice. Restaurant du coin kind of vibe. I can see why some people may love it.

Service was good. Everyone is nice & helpful.

My wife & i shared the ceasar salad. It was good. Expensive but good. Made fresh in front of us.

My wife took a steak (onglet de boeuf) & i took the entrecote which was supposedly a top 4% grass fed cut from a local farm. Everything was drenched in the strangest butter sauce. You couldnt even taste the meat. I rarely send food back but was not able to stomach it. I dont mind butter on my steak but this was a strange fusion of butter & i dont know what...onions or chives. Anyway in my opinion steak should just be grilled & served. Sauce should be on the sode. It camouflaged the meat & couldnt taste anything but the sauce which i couldnt handle.

My wife had the onglet de boeuf which was quite good. No sauce over it but it laid on a bed of vegetables that were cooked with 5 lbs of butter. Again we dont mind butter but this was exaggerated.

I sent back my steak explaining i couldnt stomach the sauce. I know its not their fault but i was expexting at least a dessert or coffee on the house. They charged me everything. A little disappointing considering its not a cheap place.

Suffice to say that i will never be going back there. I wouldnt recommend the place but i also wouldnt tell someone not to go of they asked my opinion because the place has potential & they know how to cook, but it needs a little finesse.

Un petit bistro avec un bon service & des plats simples visuellement tout pleins de saveurs. La tarte tartin, la salade de betterave, les moules-frites & l'onglet de boeuf ont notre aval!

Belle soirée entre amis... Ambieuse chaleuse & même joyeuse. On s'est délecté d'une nourriture aux saveurs généreuses mais précises. Les "hits" de la soirée: la côte de boeuf, l'esturgeon sur un fond du fruits de mer, l'entrée de canard & bien sûr la fameuse César au homard. Les desserts étaient à se rouler par terre avec un petit vermouth artisanal...
