Today, in its new location, Moishes is more dedicated than ever to re-affirming authenticity, consistency, and culinary excellence for generations to come.
Moishes is described by guests as a premier Montreal steakhouse offering consistently superb food, impeccable service, and a refined yet comfortable atmosphere. Reviews highlight perfectly cooked steaks—ribeye, New York strip, filet mignon—along with standout sides like mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts, polenta, and the famous Monte Carlo potatoes, and notable starters such as oysters Rockefeller and a crisp Caesar. The wine list and cocktails receive praise, and desserts like mille-feuille are a frequent highlight. The new Square Victoria location is widely admired for its beauty and ambiance, while some longtime patrons miss certain nostalgic touches from the old venue. Service is repeatedly described as attentive, professional, and friendly, with staff going above and beyond during celebrations and special occasions, though a few visits note slower pacing during peak times or occasional inconsistencies. Valet parking is appreciated, and many guests consider Moisches one of the best steakhouse experiences in Montreal, likely to return for special occasions, business dinners, and celebrations.
First time my friend & I celebrate my birthday at Moishes' new location. Loved it, beautiful, great atmosphere. Everyone was friendly & incredibly "accueillants". The NY strip was delicious, flavourful & tender. Monte Carlo potato was smooth, rich, very tasty, as usual. Grilled shrimp was perfect, garlic sauce definitely enhances the flavours. The shrimp on ice was DELECTABLE. Millefeuille is a good choice for the cake, light, flakey, the cream filling was fluffy, yum! I can't say enough good things about the service, from the host to all staff. Our waiter was wonderful & very attentive. Will definitely return! Thank you to everyone for making it a perfect birthday dinner ❤️
As a long time loyal customer of the old Moishes it was great to visit the brand new location & the restaurant is absolutely beautiful from the coffered ceilings, red booths, wooden tables comfortable chairs & gorgeous chandeliers. We were warmly welcomed by the manager David from the old location. We were in awe when he remembered mine & my partners order. He kept coming to our table to ensure everything was to our liking. Our waitress Kia made great food recommendations & was super attentive. We enjoyed the oysters which was beautifully displayed, salmon Carpaccio as appetizers & the rib steak & rib eye. A lovely sumptuous surprise were the short ribs & the fried onions. Be ready to shell out a pretty penny but it was well worth it & we look forward to returning. Bon Apeitie!

Honestly beautiful dining experience. First off David (manager) was extremely personable & charismatic. We had original reservations at 5:30pm but had a minor kid emergency & knew we wouldn't make the reservation on time. We called & asked to come for 9pm as that was available last minute. David said to come whenever & take our time. We figured after we cleared up our kid emergency we would go for 8 & hang at the bar until our table was ready. We arrived at 8 & our table was in fact ready. Had a wonderful waitress who was very charming & attentive. I'll simply say, impeccable service & a beautiful ambiance. The restaurant is gorgeous inside. I had the short rib & my husband had the NY strip along with octopus salad & the arugula salad. I read a review that the short rib on the creamy polenta was disappointing.....I could not disagree more. It was delicious!! Everything was. I had a great birthday dinner & David even came to ask if all ended up ok with my kids. Loved it & will definitely recommend to my friends & family & be back. Not one negative thing I can mention! All was fantastic!
First time in the new location. We liked that there were some visual reminders for old location. Our server was excellent. Very attentive. Food was all high quality & tasted wonderful. Steaks were marvellous (though may be big enough to share). Also loved that there was bubble gum (still). We especially appreciated the visit from "David", chatting about the old Moishe's, Toronto & other things. Thank for the free slice of cheese cake (& sorry we could not finish it at the restaurant). We will be back on our next trip to Montreal.
It was a wonderful experience the food was amazing. our waitress was very kind & attentive. it was my birthday & they brought out a complimentary birthday cake. would highly recommend!

As we 1st stepped in we were greeted by happy friendly hosts, assuring us that our request will be granted. (my seating preference) Once seated we then were welcomed by our server, Hugo. While looking through the large wine selection, the Someilier walk up to offer help, he graciousely recommended what our price piont was & preference. Next we we offered an in kitchen visit.(they thought I had requested) We kindly declined. They were attentive to my online request, although it must of been misread. We are then served our wine, a basket of bread, coleslaw & Moishes pickles Mmm I love pickles. Then our meal. We chose to share the "for 2 pp". It was cooked perfectly. We chose a side of fries, but could not finish it...too much food for us. Great dining experince, exquisite food & professional classy service.I strongly recommend.
David was lovely, attentive & made sure my Mom had a lovely Birthday Celebration. Our server, wait staff & the coat check person from Paris were 10 out of 10. We will be back again & tell friends about our experience
We celebrated our daughter's birthday. Everything was exquisite especially our server, Hugo. He was courteous, attentive, knowledgeable, friendly & professional. Makes all the difference in providing a memorable experience. Thank you.

I have no clue why you seated us close to bathroom & waiter's stand when I had requested a quiet corner. There was more traffic around our table than 5th avenue in NY at rush hour.
Loved talking with David the manager who was very attentive.
My recent visit to Moishes Steakhouse was nothing short of exceptional, offering a delightful blend of family-friendly ambiance & culinary excellence. What stood out immediately was their thoughtful gesture of providing Legos for the little ones. This rare & considerate move by the restaurant created a welcoming environment for families, allowing adults to enjoy their meal while the children were happily engaged. The customer service at Moishes was outstanding. The staff were not just friendly, but also exceptionally attentive, ensuring that every aspect of our dining experience was taken care of. Their eagerness to please & attention to detail made our visit memorable & enjoyable. Now, onto the culinary journey. The food was dazzlingly delicious, to say the least. I had the pleasure of tasting various dishes from our table, & each one was a delight. The oysters, in particular, were a standout, boasting a freshness that you could taste. Their presentation, much like the rest of the meal, was impeccable & demonstrated the care put into each dish. While I didn't have the steak on this visit, the tantalizing aromas & the satisfied expressions of my companions have convinced me it's a must-try for my next visit. It's not just the promise of a great steak that will bring me back to Moishes, but also the overall exceptional experience, especially their amazing customer service. A special thanks goes to the team for bringing the Legos, which made the young one's evening as delightful as ours. In conclusion, Moishes Steakhouse is a prime example of how fine dining can perfectly accommodate families. Their excellent food, coupled with an extraordinary level of service, makes them a standout establishment. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier steakhouse experience. Cheers, BN
Exceptional lunch at the new location. Decor is sophisticated & uncrowded, service was seamless & attentive. Octopus course was divine, the ribeye & filet mignon perfection. Impressive selection of wine by the glass. I will make this a regular stop, a true pleasure.

The staff & service were attentive & friendly which added to the great ambience .. streaks were cooked to perfection, the sides, wine list & drinks were perfect, the experience, including the attention from our sommelier was a wonderful experience.. to be repeated
We had a reservation & we were taken to our table promptly. The service is attentive & not rushed which is appreciated when you just want to make it a nice evening. The restaurant is beautiful. The decor elegant & trendy. Food was wonderful & portions were BIG. Highly recommend. Pricey but worth it
We had a wonderful time. The waiters were very attentive.
One downside was the organization of the bar. There was only one person who could handle the bill & when it came time to pay the bill, she was extremely busy. It took too much time to pay the bill. I think you should rethink the organization.
2 out of 3 steaks were overcooked. Considering one of them was a dry-aged rib steak, paying a premium for something that you did not receive was disappointing, especially since this is a specialty steakhouse!
Our waitress was really nice & kind, however we had to flag her down often & pour our own wine. Dinner last longer than it should have if we had a little more attentive service.
Overall, it was a pleasant evening & dinner experience.
Great food, attentive service (from Annie & the whole team). Amazing environment.
The sole challenge as I see it is to bring the perfection of service (water, placement of utensils, dish clearing, etc) commensurate to the top-tier pricing you've set. I have no doubt you'll get there!
