Moishes is a fantastic choice for a friends' night out. The vibe feels classic & special-lively enough for a celebration, but still comfortable for a long catch-up. Steaks are perfectly cooked & full of flavor, sides are generous & made for sharing, & the cocktails/wine list make it easy to turn dinner into a full evening. Service is polished & attentive without being pushy, so everything flows smoothly. If you want a memorable night with great food & that'treat yourself' atmosphere, Moishes delivers.
The atmosphere, drinks, wine list & food were only out done by the excellent service. From the bar tenders to the wait staff (we had four people on our team), they were all very polite & attentive.
From the moment you're escorted to your table, something shifts. You're gently carried into a space that feels warm & intimate, yet effortlessly refined. It's the kind of atmosphere that wraps around you, inviting you to slow down & stay a while.
The service is nothing short of impeccable; the truest expression of attentiveness & care. In a time where that standard can feel rare, this place brings it back to life. Every interaction felt genuine. From our waiter, to the quiet attentiveness of the busser, to each person who brought our dishes, there was a shared energy of kindness, presence, & a sincere joy in taking care of us.
A special thank you to Max, our server, who went above & beyond in ways that didn't go unnoticed. Antoine at the bar was pure charm, adding his own sparkle to the evening. & to the lovely'girls' girl' waitress who so kindly took our photos, you ALL made the night feel even more special for my friend's birthday.
It's not just a meal here; it's a feeling, one that lingers long after you've left. 💫
We came here for the lunch & the food & bar service was excellent. Our server Ronan was very helpful, attentive & provided a very good wine choice of wine. We had a wonderful time & would definitely return.

A truly memorable experience! The atmosphere is cozy, comfortable & fun. Food was incredible. Excellent presentation & quality. Service was friendly, attentive & made great recommendations. Overall wonderful evening! Would return 100%!
I went to celebrate my birthday, & I had an incredible experience. The staff were attentive & kind, taking time to answer my questions. It was an absolutely lovely experience, & the food was delicious.
MOISHES!!! This restaurant is the sole reason why I would come back to Montreal. The attentive service, the DETAIL & the thought that is put in to every cocktail, every dish & every step of service. At Moishes, it was all about uncommon care from the moment I walked in. I was greeted with a glass of champagne at the bar; & started off with Oysters Rockefeller. It was absolutely delicious. I was then greeted by David; & we were chatting about my time in Montreal & insisted that he would take care of the wine when I ordered my dinner. Hospitality is the name of the game; & he was wonderful! The bartenders were absolutely TOP TIER. Kind, & had a genuine interest in the guest's experience.
The caviar topped deviled egg, the shrimp cocktail, were great; but, the real star of the show….A Cherry Smoked Short Rib. This was one of the best meals I have ever had in my life. The ambience food service ; everything from start to finish was SUPERB. Well done! I cannot wait to be back.
Absolutely phenomenal evening with Caro! She is a real gem & made out night 100x better! The food was amazing, service was quick & attentive. An institution.

We had a great time. The food was expertly prepared & tasty as hell! Standout was the smoked short ribs (get them with the mashed potatoes) & the spinach side. Excellent, attentive service. Highly recommended!
Rumen is absolutely fantastic! Every time I visit the restaurant, he's there with a smile, always attentive & ready to help. His service is the fastest I've ever experienced - you barely have to ask for something before it's already taken care of. Beyond being efficient, he's genuinely kind & makes everyone feel welcome. Rumen truly makes the dining experience special. Highly recommend asking for him if you visit!

Gorgeous food, warm & attentive service, classy modern yet old school atmosphere.
We went for a double celebration. I have a leg cast & let them know in advance & they put aside my kneeler it didn't bother me or other guests.
We have been many times since they reopened. Service is always top notch. No exaggeration.
The manager keeps his watchful eye on the entire'orchestra' of staff.
The menu keeps evolving but alway high end steak restaurant. Our staples are rib steak, port house to share & braised ribs with polenta. Outstanding !
This time we also ordered an arugula salad. Delicious ! One person ordered the fully loaded minute Carlo potato, & some crispy onions. Usually we don't bother with starters or sides as the steak & rib portions are very generous.
Cocktails are top shelf.
The millefeuille is out of this world ! You have to try it even if you are sharing.
Sorry no photos of the food. We aren't really food photo people but I did take a snap of the dessert.
Moishes was so good we went back two days in a row! One of the best steakhouses my husband & I have been to, & we love our steaks.
Drinks were tasty, well balanced, & reasonably priced - we had the Le Rocket, whisky sour, & passionfruit mojito. The steaks had great sears & were cooked perfectly. Brussels sprouts were the best I've ever had - super crispy with a hint of sweetness from maple syrup. I ordered the garlic mash the first night concerned that my husband would miss his usual order of French fries, but he said it was actually his favourite side we tried between both dinners. I'd recommend trying all 3 sauces, & they have a secret spice blend that was lovely with the steak (we did miss that the first night). They also serve a coleslaw & pickles as a free appetizer, & they were maybe the best coleslaw & pickles I've ever had.
Shout out to our fantastic waiters Tristan & Alan! They were attentive (e.g. we were wondering what a bordelaise sauce was & Tristan overheard & answered before we were able to check Google, & when my husband ordered a mojito Alan recommended to elevate it with a passionfruit twist & now we might always need to order passionfruit mojitos), pleasant to converse with, & overall great at their jobs.
I would definitely recommend booking a reservation if you're set on Moishes, as we heard multiple groups get turned away because they were fully booked.
Outstanding! We had a reservation for the bar & our server, Danny, was excellent - friendly & attentive. We started with escargot which may have been the best we've had. For dinner, we had the ribeye with creamed spinach & crispy onions - perfection. The sommelier, Rafael, recommended a Bordeaux that paired perfectly. Highly recommend!
If I could give this place 10 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would-they truly deserve it. This is hands-down the best restaurant I've been to in a long time, & that's just based on the service alone. The staff is incredibly attentive, noticing & responding to every little detail without being intrusive. You feel genuinely cared for from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. It's clear they take pride in what they do, & it shows in every interaction. Dining here is not just a meal-it's an experience.
