Small and intimate steak-frites restaurant. Open 7 days a week. Good wine list & classic Martinis. Daily specials on appetizers & desserts. Chef Pat Marion.
Reviews of Mignon Steak describe a cozy welcoming room with a warm vibe and attentive service that many diners appreciate for a night out with friends or a date. The food is generally well received, with the steak frites frequently praised for taste and balance and other items like tartare, oysters, and seafood earning positive notes. However, a number of visits note inconsistency, including steaks that are burnt or undercooked, dishes arriving cold, and portions or timing that can feel off. The service ranges from outstanding to slower or distracted depending on the night, and a few reservations or seating issues have left guests feeling frustrated. Overall the restaurant tends to deliver strong flavors and a convivial atmosphere that invite return visits, even as some guests caution about value and variability.
Pas de doute, ce steak frites est délicieux. Mais n'allons pas croire que l'élève surpasse le maître (Entrecôte Saint-Jean)! Tout cependant n'est pas que dans la sauce : le steak est d'une excellente qualité & les frites, parfaites. Quant au lieu, le resto est bien mignon, comme son nom, mais très bruyant. Si vous vouliez un tête-à-tête en amoureux, pas la place. Le garçon qui nous a servis (nous étions 4) mérite tous les éloges. Chapeau! Va-t-on revenir? Assurément.
I would have loved to give this restaurant 5 stars. Both of the 1st courses (the polenta & the charred cabbage) were amazing, as were both of the 2nd courses (the salad & the cream of broccoli soup). Equally terrific was the French bread, the fries, the wine, both desserts (the profiterole & the coffee creme brulee), & the coffee, plus service was knowledgeable & friendly. In fact, everything was 5- star & amongst the best I have ever experience., expect most unfortunately for the steak itself. I don't know whether it was the cut of meat or the manner in which it was cooked, but it was not nearly as flavourful or as tender as the steak I was served when I came to the restaurant earlier this year. Not only did I think that the steak was bad, but so did my 2 other dining companions. Perhaps it had something to do with this restaurant's participation in the Montreal a Table promotion this particular week? Given my previous experience & how wonderful everything else was, however, I will be returning to give the restaurant another chance. One last word of advice, the restaurant is fairly noisy, so you most definitely have to elevate your voice well beyond a normal conversational tone
Belle ambiance, beau décor bien pensé, tout est bon, belles présentations, cuisson du steak tel que demandé, une sauce divine!!! Un service impeccable
seul bémol, peut être, carte des vins débute à 60$ mais.... faut bien se gâter dans la vie.

Menu trop limité & le steak devrait être servi avec la sauce à côté & non étalée partout sur le steak, table d'hôte avec un choix seulement & ce dessert & café ou thé en surplus! (insultant)
Les serveurs ont repris des assiettes presque propres! La nourriture était divine, sans exagération. Il est vrai que le choix d'articles sur le menu est limité, mais la qualité des ingrédients & les combinaisons de saveurs nous ont laissés béa, ce qui compense largement. Cerise sur le gâteau, les employés sont tous incroyablement sympathiques & offrent un service irréprochable. On vous improvisera également des mocktails, sur demandes, en fonction des saveurs qui vous intéressent. Nous sommes impatients d'y retourner. Mignon Steak, ma découverte culinaire de l'année!

The quality of the meat is not up to par. It was quite tough (medium rare). Evrything else was good: salad, soup, fries, sauce.
Didn't appreciate being told on arrival that we had to vacate the table in 1.5 hours when it clearly says 2 hours when reserving. Had to insist what had been confirmed with the waitress a few times too many times while she insisted that it was 1.5 hours; she even said that she confirmed that in her phone call yet she she had never called to confirm our reservation. Will think twice before going back.
