Review Summary

Gus is widely celebrated for its cozy, intimate atmosphere and consistently high-quality dining experience, earning praise as a top destination in the city. The menu is heavily focused on meat and features standout dishes like the signature Caesar salad, various expertly prepared steak cuts, and indulgent desserts. While the vast majority of visitors highlight the warm hospitality, knowledgeable staff, and well-curated wine list as reasons to return, some guests have noted the space is small and recommend advance reservations. Although the rich, flavorful preparation style is a major draw for most, a few diners have expressed varying preferences regarding the intensity of the sauces used in certain dishes. Overall, the restaurant maintains a strong reputation for delivering flavorful, hearty meals in a welcoming environment that makes both regulars and newcomers feel at home.

Great experience & food here. I had the best salad, Cesar salad & surf & turf. The Caesar salad was gigantic! Everything was delicious.

We sat at the bar & the Chef was super friendly. So was the staff. I would highly recommend. I would definitely go back next time I am in Montreal.

This is one of my all time favourite restaurants ever. My brother introduced me to Dave & his team many years ago & since then we have enjoyed many wonderful, delicious meals there. I highly recommend the Ceasar salad, surf & turf or the bavette as core delights that you can always count on. That said I have NEVER had anything other than an amazing meal. Much love for this restaurant & its incredible food!!!

Incredible restaurant. Top. Finally went to Gus recently on a trip to Montreal & it was outstanding. The food is world class & the owner David is an incredible guy. Very small, cute space with an overload of quality food, drinks, wines, & experience. Personal favorites were the strawberry shortcake, the lamb (agneau), surf & turf, & the Cesar salad. Everything was impeccable though. Looking forward to many more visits au Restaurant Gus :).

The surf & turf dish has us coming back. We are lucky to have excellent restaurants in the neighborhood & Gus is one of them. If you want a ceasar salad that is exquisite & done the original & authentic way than this is the place - the menu changes often & they provide some nice options for all tastes! We will be back soon!

Food is great! Very tasty, portions are really good! We took the ceasar salad as a starter & the surf & turf to share. They have a good option of wines. The service is really good as well, they were very attentive. I definitely recommend, I will return to try the other dishes.
