Memorable experience at Maggie Oakes. Located at the heart of the Old port of Montreal, my family & I came here for the first time to celebrate my birthday & Mother's Day. Both the food & service were immaculate. I certainly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good steakhouse!View more
Joe
The steaks are high quality & the price definitely reflect that. However, the lobster & onion soup were let down. The lobster wasn't great & a bit dry (likely overcooked) & the onion soup has little to no soup, just a big chunk of onions inside. I would recommend just go for the steak which I would rate 5 stars & the lobsters & onion soup 1-2 stars. Otherwise, great service & atmosphere.View more

Excellent restaurant. Top notch service from Louis. We started with a wine flight which was paired with an appetizer bite. 2 whites & a red. Amazing pairings & what a start to the good. Our starters were wonderful...a goat cheese salad & Pate for my husband. We both had the 46 day dry aged NY strip with vegetables & a bourdalize sauce. The yuzu cream puff dessert was out of this world. We loved our meal so much we went back a second night to see Louis again. I highly recommend Maggie Oakes!!!View more

If you plan on hosting a large group I would definitely recommend Maggie Oakes! We were a group of 20 & from beginning to end it was a breeze. The service was on point (never an empty glass on the table) & the food was delicious! It will be my go to for all events from now on :) Thank you!!View more

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.View more

Servers are great! Inside dining is noisy but restaurant is nice & nicely appointed. Their signature aged beef is priced per ounce, but is prepared in pre-sliced 20oz portions...why not just list the cut by the actual price instead of forcing the customer to pull out the calculator to figure the price of the serving? We ordered the Flank Steak which admittedly is the lowest price cut, but I ordered it because I didn't want to try to polish off 20oz of steak for dinner. I've had flank steak before & still enjoyed it but in this case I was sorry I ordered it. It was tough, chewy, & flavorless. I would recommend the restaurant remove it from the menu.View more

Our group of girls came here to celebrate a birthday & this place did not disappoint in any aspect. The atmosphere was great from decor to music volume. The food was very good, & all the drinks were delicious as well. As for the service, a very special thank you to our waiter Alec for taking care of our large group throughout the night. He did an amazing job & we were very happy with the service. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a special occasion!View more

Me & my friends visited Maggie Oakes at the recommendation of a local while visiting Montreal & I am SO HAPPY we went. All 8 of us left were so pleased with our experience! The food was incredible - the lobster pappardelle was to die for, others at the table got steak & burgers & were also very happy with their meals. The ceviche & prosciutto pizza were also delicious. The most stand-out thing about this restaurant though was definitely the service. The service here rivaled that of Michelin star restaurants i've been to. Our waitress was very attentive to our table, her drink recommendations were all so good, we had multiple people servicing our table, making sure we had water, providing fresh utensils, cleaning the table between dishes, etc. Not once did we have to wait for/ask to order, get water, etc. She was incredibly sweet, along with all the other staff. I'd highly recommend Maggie Oakes to anyone visiting Old Montreal. The quality of the food & service will blow you away!!View more

Lovely place to have a bite to eat & drink right in Old Port. John especially was a wonderful gentleman. Sabrina B is an excellent sever as well. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in the area. The Caesar salad is to die for.View more

We came on a very busy Sunday morning for brunch. The staff, especially Samuel, was professional, & courteous. They had gluten free bread for all orders (no extra cost), but I would not say it's celiac friendly as I was not notified that my fries were in the same fryer until my plate arrived. That being said, the staff was amazing, the food was great, coffee was great, etc. highly recommend!View more

Exceptional Service & Fresh Food at Maggie Oakes! This was our second visit to Maggie Oakes (426 Pl. Jacques-Cartier, Montréal), & it happened to be on our anniversary! We didn't make a reservation, but the staff were accommodating & welcoming. The food was incredibly fresh & delicious! The service was attentive, prompt, & went above & beyond. One memorable moment that stood out was when we accidentally dropped a spoon, & a staff member (unfortunately, I didn't catch his name) quickly replaced it for us from a distance. What impressed us even more was that he said, "I heard you from afar & knew you'd need a new one!" This small gesture speaks volumes about the exceptional service at Maggie Oakes. The staff's attention to detail & anticipation of our needs made us feel truly valued. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone! The combination of fresh food & outstanding service makes it a must-visit destination. We'll definitely be back!View more

We have visited this restaurant several times, & our first experience was truly memorable. It was a delightful occasion as we celebrated a special two-person dinner. The food was exceptionally delicious, & the ambiance was unique & charming. I highly recommend.View more

I had brunch here, & really enjoyed the atmosphere. The serving staff were all super friendly & helpful picking between two items when I was indecisive. I really enjoyed the Avocado toast I had, one of the very best. The only disappointing item I had was the Earl Grey Mocktail, which wasn't terrible, just not 10$ good for a non-alcoholic drink. Highly recommend going here for a lovely meal.View more
Mark
The place was very comforting clean polite & attentive. That being said I believe the bagel with cream cheese & lox was overpriced & definitely underachieved. Three guests we all enjoyed a very delicious breakfast & it was plentiful. I would recommend it for a comfortable breakfast & relaxing lunchView more
