Overall, Milestones is described as a lively, inviting spot with generous portions, a broad menu, and a strong drinks program, where the food is often praised for quality and presentation and the service is frequently highlighted as friendly, attentive, and efficient, making it a reliable choice for gatherings, celebrations, or casual dinners. Several reviews praise the ambiance and staff across locations, noting quick, personal service and a bar-friendly vibe that supports socializing. Yet a number of experiences point to inconsistencies such as meals arriving cold or underseasoned, steak or ribs that miss the mark, or slower service during busy periods, reminding readers that results can vary by location and time. Vegetarian options are mentioned as decent but not universally loved, and portions tend to be substantial with many dishes described as satisfying or filling, though some diners feel value can vary with price. All in all, Milestones is commonly recommended for a night out with friends or family, thanks to welcoming staff, a vibrant atmosphere, and many delicious dishes, with the occasional misstep noted as a caveat.
Who is the middle-aged man in the suit & glasses that just stands between the bar & the bathroom, chatting & laughing with staff, & staring at people eating? I would assume he has a paid job but I didn't see him do anything but go to the bathroom & return to keep talking for close to an hour. He was talking so loudly that my wife & I had to raise OUR voices to hear each other. I tried making eye contact with him in the hopes that he'd get the hint & maybe he could... move away or talk lower? Each time he stared right back at me & kept right on yapping. My wife & I gave up trying to talk to each other & just ate our food. Younger staffers would pass by & play videos on their phones for him, & he'd have a good chuckle. So I guess at least one of us had a fun night?
Food was great, drinks were well priced, girls at the front of the house were very nice & our waitress was great. It was odd to see a bunch of staff (about 6 people?) gathered behind us with dirty dishes is their hands in a circle chatting but I can give them a pass as they seemed very young. The middle-aged guy however should absolutely know better & should probably be setting a better example... unless he was a random customer? Couldn't tell from his demeanor.
Family of 4 went on Valentine's Day & was pleasantly impressed! The restaurant has an excellent vibe to it. The service was A1. They must of checked on us 10 times. The food is very good & well priced. I've been to many restaurants with my younger kids & I find that most times we get overlooked from the staff. Maybe they think I won't tip well? Anyways, not here. My family loved it & we will definitely go back!

First time at Milestones Fairview. Kosta took our order & created a great atmosphere….Fantastic personality, very welcoming with an authentic smile.
Will be coming back. My husband loved the rib steak Kosta recommended, aged & grilled to perfection! I had a tender & juicy Portobello chicken.

Came in on Sunday with some friends & had a fantastic time! We grabbed a spot at the bar, tried a bunch of appetizers like tacos & braised beef, & some burgers. Mia served us at the bar, & we also met the managers, Antoine, & Katerina. The service was great all around from everyone. Great vibes, & we're definitely coming back. Highly recommend it
One of the best restaurants in Montréal
Prices are so affordable, & the ambiance is amazing
When you go to the restaurant ask for Clara, she is such an amazing person to help you choose your meal from the menu....Thank you Clara for your amazing & lovely service

The place is lovely-spacious, comfortable, & very clean. Unfortunately, the food was underseasoned & seemed undercooked, & it made me feel unwell afterward. Overall, great accommodations but disappointing dining.
Milestones Fairview how do I even start 😅 absolutely impeccable the best service I've had in all 22 years of my little young life. The food, the DRINKs & even more the service. 😱 Shanna where do I even start top of the line would be an understatement, I've never felt more at home. Milestones Fairview will definitely see us again 😁
Hi,
I reserved table for 4 person Wednesday at 6:30 pm.
They give us nice table with leather seats.
But there were bad very bad smell behind the table & more than 10 flies on the seats & around us.
We called the waiter & ask him to change the table & did change it for us after he saw the flies.
Every thing went nice untill they put another family in the same smelly table.
That was not good for me to see that.
I will never go there again.
