Would definitely recommend visiting Milestones in the West Island! We started off with mushroom soups & a gluten free iceberg wedge salad. Our waiter Ash was super careful with the allergy which we appreciated. The belllinis & negroni were great & came out quickly. We then got 16 oz steaks, the smash burger, the salmon poke bowl & the spicy salmon tartare. All the food came out hot & was delicious. For dessert, we had the gluten free apple crumble, the key lime pie & the giant cookie as it was my husband's birthday. Ash was awesome! The manager Antoine also checked on us & was super polite. Great restaurant for a gathering, a night out with friends or family or even a birthday!
Went for a girl's lunch, the food was delicious, it was comfortable & attractive, & the service from Charlotte was exceptional. Reasonably priced wine list, got free dessert for my birthday. We were able to sit & chat in peace for as long as we wanted. Will definitely return.

A lovely evening out on a weekday night. From the friendly greeting by the hostess to the great service by Franco. Calamari was delicious, not greasy & the sauce had a slight bite! Salmon tartare was so good as was the cod. The salad served with the tartare was fresh with the perfect amount of dressing. Thanks for making our night out so special!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Milestones Pointe Claire, & overall, it was a fantastic experience. The restaurant has a cozy yet modern vibe, & the staff was friendly & attentive, which made for a very comfortable dining atmosphere. For starters, I ordered the steak tartare, & I have to say, it was absolutely delicious. The meat was incredibly fresh, & the seasoning was just right-balanced, with a nice tang from the capers & a slight kick from the mustard. The texture was perfect as well, finely chopped, which made each bite melt in your mouth. The only minor issue was that the dish came with a little less bread than I would have preferred. With steak tartare, extra bread is essential for scooping up all that goodness, & I found myself wishing for a few more slices. That said, it didn't detract too much from the overall enjoyment of the dish. For the main course, I opted for a different entrée (which was equally satisfying), but the standout of the meal was definitely the starter. I also appreciated the drink selection-they had a great variety of wines & cocktails to pair with the food, & the staff was knowledgeable enough to make recommendations based on my preferences. The atmosphere at Milestones was relaxed but still upscale, making it a great place for both casual outings or special occasions. The service was quick & attentive, & the staff really made an effort to make sure everything was to my liking. In summary, Milestones Pointe Claire delivers a memorable dining experience with solid food, great service, & a nice ambiance. The steak tartare is definitely worth trying, & while the bread portion could have been a bit more generous, I'll definitely be back to enjoy it again. Highly recommend!

First time at milestone Pros: seated quickly, waitress was pleasant took our orders quickly ; we were a group of 12; ambiance was good, seats comfortable Cons: took over an hour for our food to arrive despite we were early for dinner & restaurant was not that busy Would not recommend the grilled chicken served on spinach, kale with spicy goat cheese. Meat was tough & dry, barely any vegetables looked nothing like the picture. Caesar salad was plain at best. Beet salad barely had any beets. Food prep & quality definitely sub par. For the price, do not recommend for a meal. Might be ok for 5a7. Drinks & snacks
Just went back again on Jan 2. Had the same dishes. Truly excellent & consistent quality food & service. 4 months ago: Monday lunch time. Had the truffle pasta dish & my wife had the tuna tartare, both off the lunch menu. Both were really fantastic. We had the Bellini signature cocktail. Service was truly wonderful, cheerful, & very attentive. I found the pricing very reasonable given the quality & portions. Lots of parking & all ground floor, so easy access for anyone with challenges. Will definitely go back!
The staff is friendly, but I haven't waited this long for food in - I can't even remember. They also don't even care. My husband got up to get us more water while the other servers watched. Our server said: we're short staffed because you know it's holiday season & people are sick. Even if you say this with a smile, it doesn't make it acceptable.
We were two people for Saturday dinner. I enjoyed the ambiance, decor & food. We waited a very long time for our food & the waitress kept disappearing for long periods of time. I wish she checked on us much more often than she did . We ordered dessert & she just vanished. No dessert. Had to ask a staff member & he brought us the cake eventually. I think a place like this should have older, more experienced wait staff & not high school kids who just want to get the shift over with.
