Just had a lovely dinner at Maggie Oakes. Pascal, Emil, & the gentleman who welcomed us were professional & attentive. The food was delicious (Maggie's cheeseburger & sesame crusted salmon, salad & dessert), & the service from all members of the team was excellent. Would definitely go again when in the area.

Very expensive for what you get & the food was only ok at best. Not at all worth the premium prices, much better options available nearby. The atmosphere was good, not too loud & comfortable environment.

We will recommend this place to all our friends. Rosemonde & Julian were the best, most pleasant servers we have had anywhere & we would come back just to see them. Our steaks, mushrooms, potatoes, & other vegetables, hot tea, & cheesecakes were excellent. We had a table next to the central square & watched the rest of the world go by. We are happy to be here in Canada, by which I mean I am glad that Montreal & Quebec are part of Canada. It has all the good qualities of Europe.

Such a memorable experience at Maggie Oakes. My family & I dined here for the first time to celebrate both my birthday & Mother's Day. The quality of the food was outstanding & the mashed potatoes perfectly complement the steak. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a good steakhouse!

Dining at this restaurant is always a pleasure. I selected this place to introduce my friends to one of Montreal's hidden gems, & once again, it exceeded all expectations. Despite the heavy rain outside, the staff remained kind, attentive, & welcoming throughout our visit.

We started our evening with cocktails & wine in the central lounge, which offered a cozy, intimate setting. Although we arrived without a reservation, one of the managers accommodated us, providing a table in a particularly special spot near the vertical garden. The seating was comfortable, & the lighting was just right, enhancing the overall ambiance.

Our waitress was friendly & attentive from the moment we sat down. The restaurant's atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between modern & elegant, making it suitable for any occasion. The music played at a perfect volume, allowing for easy conversation.

As always, the food was outstanding. Every dish was crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, & the variety of desserts was the perfect conclusion to our meal. The service was impeccable, with the staff going above & beyond to ensure we had an exceptional experience.

I will definitely be returning & highly recommend the Steak Bavette, Salmon Tartare, the tropical cocktail, & of course, the desserts.

Christmas dinner with the team.

Once again, we enjoyed a wonderful business dinner at a restaurant we truly love. From the moment we arrived, the experience was exceptional. The warm, welcoming atmosphere combined with the modern décor immediately set the tone for a memorable evening.
Being asked where we preferred to sit made us feel genuinely valued-having that choice is all about comfort. Continuing our now-established tradition during business dinners, we were welcomed with glasses of sparkling wine upon arrival.
We began with a selection of the house specialty cocktails, the perfect way to open our appetites. Sacha, the restaurant director, was, as always, friendly, attentive, & meticulous, ensuring that every detail contributed to an outstanding experience.
For starters, we shared popcorn shrimp, salmon tartare, chicken Caesar salad, & grilled tuna tataki-each dish was delicious & beautifully presented. For the main courses, we chose the grilled salmon, steak baguette, & cod. Every plate was flawlessly presented, with each dish cooked to perfection.
To finish, we enjoyed a perfectly curated dessert selection, offering both variety & indulgence-the ideal way to close the evening.
The service was impeccable throughout the night, consistently attentive & always ready to assist, whether refilling water or suggesting another drink.
Highly recommended for a special dinner-100% satisfaction guaranteed!

J'ai passé un très bon moment dans ce restaurant chaleureux avec du style. La nourriture était très bonne & le service très présent & discret. Nous avons pris le brunch & nous nous sommes régalés. Le prix était très bon aussi. Vu la quantité de boeuf à cet endroit, c'est certain que je vais retourner pour un dîner ou un souper.
