Mignon Steak offers a polarizing experience where guests frequently praise the inviting atmosphere, cozy decor, and the exceptional efforts of the service staff, who are often described as friendly and attentive. While many patrons enjoy the cocktails, oysters, and specific menu items like the tartare, experiences with the signature steak and sauce are notably inconsistent. Some diners laud the quality and value of the table d'hôte, whereas others report disappointment regarding portion sizes, rising prices, and fluctuating food preparation quality. Despite the restaurant's reputation for being a welcoming spot for friends and dates, issues with reservation management and varying food standards have left some long-time visitors feeling that the overall experience no longer justifies the cost.
We have been here a few time before with great memories of the food & service.
Sadly we will think twice before coming back after this time…
We can in & it was busy. So we expected having to wait a bit for the service. But after a good twenty minutes, the waitress finally came to take our order for drinks. There was a couple that came in after us & had their orders taken before us.
We had ordered beef & salmon tartare & escargot for entree. Main dish was steak frites. After roughly 15mins, the main dish came out so we were slightly confused. Waitress had forgotten to order the entrees. Too bad because we really like the tartare here & were excited to have it. But since we got served the main dish right away, we decided to just cancel all the entrees. As apologies, the waitress offered free cocktails.
After we finished our dish, we ordered one dessert to share which was disappointing…chocolate mouse.
When we got the bill, the waitress said she didn't charge for the drink as apology for forgetting our entrees. However, the price of the main dish was the price of the table d'hôte instead of the price of the dish on regular menu. We never ordered table d'hôte! Either way, because she didn't charge us for the drinks, the bill came out as if she did charge us for the drinks. We still gave her a 25% tip btw. That was our farewell.
The food was honestly delicious for a casual night out. We never have problems with the food & drink. Just the dessert was disappointing.
Just the fact you say you give her free drinks because you forgot to serve the entrees but then overcharged for the main dish is a complete lack of transparency & honestly.
We are saddened because we really like this place but will no longer support a business that is dishonest.
Great experience at Mignon Steak! We were warmly greeted, received good service & enjoyed delicious food & drinks. The $1.50 oysters were a great deal (happy hour) & the espresso martini was perfectly made. The atmosphere was warm, laidback & inviting. My only downside was that the food portions felt quite small for the price. Overall though, a lovely spot for date night or catching up with friends!
Belle soirée entre amis.
Les huîtres à 1$ était une belle surprise spécial 5 à 7 avec achat d'un drink. Le steak signature était relativement raide, je ne sais pas quelle coupe c'était, mais pas top. L'assaisonnement manquait de sel, quoi le goût du champignon dans la sauce était intéressant.
Pour moi, tout plats au dessus de 25$ se doit d'être sur la coche. À 35$ ce ne l'était pas.
L'ambiance est très feutrée & accueillante & le service était très courtois.
Je suggère d'avoir du sel & poivre sur la table.
Peu de choix de bière mais plusieurs cocktails & vins disponibles.

Very disappointing. Food was below average, not worth the price. Waiting staff lacked attention & care for serving customers. Steak was not cooked to anyone's liking at the table & sauce was horrible. Drinks were not good at all. Do not recommend.
I had the pleasure of having dinner here last night & its a date I won't soon forget! The vibes were immaculate & that terrasse in the back had the perfect amount of privacy. The staff (Alexa & Shay) were excellent- very knowledgeable & able to recommend options for our tastes. The food & drinks were delicious & the portions left nothing to be desired (except maybe a return visit in the near future). Definitely coming back for that oyster deal! 🤤 What a wonderful experience, y'all made my week 🥰
5 STARS!
I understand the hype now, & i'm totally hyped over this place 😍 The spot is super cute, has the best golden hours. Also the best 5a7 1$ Oysters 🦪 The food is just incredible ; the meat cooked to perfection, creamy & hearty soup, fries are perfectly fried crunchy on the outside & soft on the inside, the butter is home made, the sauce is homemade too & super flavorful, desserts & drinks are on point 👌 I'll come back for the rest of the menu hihihi i want to try tartare & the mac & cheese 😁 !
Solid 8/10! Service: The service was great. Our waitress was really nice & made sure we were content. Free shots were given to everyone which was cool of them. Our waitress also took on of our drink requests even though it wasn't on the drink menu. Atmosphere: I really like the ambience of this restaurant. We sat on the terrasse for a bit which was really comfortable. Unfortunately it started to pour, so, we moved to the bar inside. The bar isn't as comfortable of course but the atmosphere was. Food: We had the Mac & cheese for our appetizer. Although we both thought it was missing just a tad bit of salt, it was very good. It's the only Mac & Cheese I've enjoyed in a restaurant. I had the PEI Canadian AAA beef. The flavour of the meat was there, delicious. Fries were addictive. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the signature sauce. It is quite dry on the tongue, which isn't very pleasant.. My partner had the beef tartare for his main dish. It was decent but not the best he has had. I'd dine here again.
I love everything about this place. Food is great drinks amazing staff are so fun to be around. Only thing is their tables on the patio are abit too small for two people.
