Grabbed lunch here with the family. Kids loved their options (chicken fingers & grilled cheese). We started with the beef tartare. Absolutely delicious. Crostini killed the flavour so definitely eat them inbetween bites, not with the tartare on top. Taro chip was much better. Could've had a stack of those instead of the crostini. The soup that day was a lentil soup which was hearty & delicious & piping hot, which was good since we were coming in from the cold. I had the Nagano pork which tasted great, especially with the sauce. Zero complaints. My wife had the rice noodle stirfry which was super-unfortunate. I know some readers may go "you deserve it for ordering Asian food at a grill" but if you put it on your menu, it should at least be decent. Blob of rice noodles (overcooked or cooked ahead of time & left to congeal maybe?) with sauce poured on top, not fried together (super obvious since plenty of white noodles not covered in sauce). Super unsure if anything in that dish had ever seen a wok. I insisted my wife send it back but she was too full from the tartare to finish the whole dish anyway. Anyway, great place, I'm sure most of the food is good but do avoid the rice noodles, or better yet, the restaurant should just replace that menu item with something else.
Well located in Old Montreal near the old port & directly connected to William Gray hotel. A cosy nicely decorated restaurant with a wide variety of selection on the menu. We went for Sunday brunch & the experience was almost perfect. We both opted for the « happening gourmand » which was an excellent price-quality ratio & a great value 2-course brunch as advertised. Everything looks good on the menu, but we went for the homemade smoothie, yogurt, eggs Benedict & the pancakes. The 2 items tasted really good; the Benedict was amazing, well balanced & flavorful but could have used a bit more hollandaise sauce, the pancakes was also excellent but the presentation & plate size needed a bit more work. The service was excellent from the time we walked in until we left. The wait was a bit long between the 2 courses, but to be expected as the restaurant was very busy. Overall very good & worth the detour!
Great place to go to brunch, good food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff & amazing service. Not to mention, it's kid-friendly. In terms of food, I had the mushroom omlette, with extra ham on the side. Omlette, potatoes & bread were really good. The only slight disappointment came from the amount of fruit that came with the plate. I didn't expect a bowl or anything but it wasn't much. Overall great experience, I highly recommend it.

Un super moment chez Maggie Oakes avec le nouveau menu pour le Brunch ! Service attentionné & cuisine délicieuse ! Les gaufres à la joue de boeuf sont INCROYABLES ! Superbe endroit !
J'ai récemment eu le plaisir de dîner au Maggie Oaks & je suis absolument ravi de mon expérience. Le cadre élégant & l'ambiance chaleureuse ont immédiatement établi le ton pour une soirée mémorable. La cuisine était exquise, chaque plat étant préparé avec une attention méticuleuse aux détails & une explosion de saveurs. Cependant, ce qui a vraiment distingué notre expérience, c'était le service impeccable de Louis. Dès notre arrivée, Louis nous a accueillis avec un sourire chaleureux & une attitude professionnelle. Tout au long de la soirée, il a été attentif, prévenant & extrêmement compétent, veillant à ce que chaque aspect de notre repas soit parfait. Sa passion pour l'hospitalité & son engagement envers l'excellence ont grandement contribué à rendre notre dîner inoubliable. Je tiens à remercier toute l'équipe du Maggie Oaks, & en particulier Louis, pour leur dévouement & leur service exceptionnel. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous ceux qui recherchent une expérience culinaire raffinée & un service de première classe.
Food was INCREDIBLE!!!!! The steak - beyond 🤤 Émeric was our waiter & he was attentive, kind, & top notch. They surprised us with a dessert board for our anniversary & it was darling & very appreciated. We were visiting MTL for Igloofest, & the food did not disappoint! Thank you again!
Excellent service, possibilité de réserver pour un groupe le weekend (pour plus que 8, il faut appeler pour faire modifier la réservation web). Nous avons été très bien reçus, les mimosas & déjeuners étaient délicieux, c'est vraiment l'endroit parfait pour bruncher avant quelques activités de plaisance dans le Vieux-Montréal en famille ou entre amis :-)
My boyfriend & I only came here for drinks, but the barmaid Isabelle was amazing. She was so fast, nice, helpful, & her drinks were great!!! Thank you ❤️
Le restaurant vous offre une expérience culinaire excellente. Tout est raffiné, recherché & délicieux. Les employés & le service sont dignes d'un michelin. Le sommelier est exceptionnel. Passionné, charmant, drôle & très connaisseur. La carte est d'ailleurs très complète. L'ambiance est très bonne, mais certaines tables laissent à désirer par leur emplacement & la configuration de la circulation qui rejoint l'hôtel.
