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.
Dined at Moishes Steakhouse on Dec 24 around 9 PM with my family. Service was okay, but the food was a complete failure.
Every dish we ordered was overly heavy, greasy, & drenched in butter. At the table, nothing seemed obviously wrong - but about two hours later, my entire family became sick. We spent Christmas stuck in the washroom instead of enjoying the holiday.
I don't know which dish caused it, & honestly it doesn't matter. After eating here, we all got stomach flu-like symptoms, & that says enough.
For a restaurant at this price point, this experience was unacceptable. Christmas ruined. Never again.
WOW! J'ai déjà été dans des restos de luxe, mais JAMAIS on ne nous a servis aux petits soins comme Moishes l'a fait! Clairement mon resto préféré, j'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner. Après toute cette expérience, j'aurais pu croire que ça nous aurait coûté AU MOINS 100 $ chacun, pour moi & mon copain. On a TRÈS bien mangé pour 172 $, 2 bières incluses! Oui, c'est du luxe, mais quand on compare avec les autres, & qu'on inclut les détails, la beauté du resto & la qualité, c'est incroyable.
Tout est dans les détails, & ça, Moishes l'a compris!
Premièrement, à la seconde où je me suis assise… mon Dieu que les chaises & les bancs sont confortables! Faut s'y asseoir pour comprendre, j'aurais pu y dormir!
Ensuite, les entrées faites maison au début (cornichons, salade de chou, pain & beurre) à volonté étaient incroyables. Quand je vous parle de détails, ce sont des choses comme le beurre, qui est fouetté (& sûrement fait maison?), avec de gros grains de sel à l'intérieur, juste délicieux.
Ensuite, le serveur nous dit qu'il peut sortir une planche avec toutes les coupes de steak pour qu'on puisse voir les grosseurs. Il explique très bien les mets &, tout au long du repas, je n'ai jamais manqué d'eau. Ils sont aussi ultra sympathiques!
Puis, quand ils viennent te servir ton plat, ils t'amènent une planche avec plusieurs choix de couteaux! Je n'avais jamais vu ça ailleurs , encore une fois, les détails!
À la fin, des chocolats à la menthe très appréciés, fait eux même, encore une fois gratuits.
Ils amènent aussi une serviette chaude pour se laver les mains avant de partir. Sans parler de la salle de bain, qui a absolument tout ce dont tu as besoin : Q-tips, détachant à vêtements, tampons (tellement utile), cure-dents & même du rince-bouche! Je dis souvent que la salle de bain reflète la qualité du restaurant, & j'en ai eu la preuve. Là-bas, ce que tu utilises pour te sécher les mains, ce sont des serviettes individuelles.
Mon entrée (tartare de boeuf) était parfaitement balancée en saveurs, & mon plat principal était une des meilleures viandes que j'ai mangées; la cuisson était parfaite. Que dire de la polenta! Première fois que j'en mangeais & j'ai été agréablement surprise. Il ont même servis deux sorte de sels assaisonnée.
J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner & je le conseille à tous mes proches! Merci encore pour cette expérience, & bravo au cuisinier & au serveur. Vous avez fait de mon Noël un grand plaisir.

We had the caviar special from Siberia. 120 grams. Our waitress paired a bottle of champagne & offered us chilled shots of vodka complimentary. The steaks were cooked to perfection medium rare of course! The entire staff was very friendly to our children 6 & 9 years old. We will be back & highly recommend them for a romantic dinner alone or with the entire family.
Made reservations, waited 30 minutes to be seated, reason being there was missing plates. Then I asked for half of my steak to be wrapped up & brought home, my waiter said yes & then proceeded to throw it out & blamed it on the busboy who was actually working amazingly the whole night; it was clear that the waiter threw it out & not the busboy. The busboy I believe named'Rumen', was incredible, great service by him. I was offered a free coffee in return. $40 in the garbage & terrible service. Very disappointed with a place like Moishes; an institutional place in Montreal known for their excellent hospitality & service. To be offered a free coffee when half of my $80 ribeye was thrown out is ridiculous.

3e fois cette automne. Superbe restaurant
Nourriture excellente. Je recommande
Le New-York strip avec patate piler & champignons sauvage. Comme entré escargot dans sa coquille avec carpaccio de boeuf. 5 étoiles 👌🏻
It's has been one my best Experience Restaurant In Montreal in terms of Standard & Excellent Customer service role. It's definitely a must visit back Restaurant anytine I am in Montreal!
Hosted a business dinner for 7. Most seemed satisfied but nobody raved about it. Service was excellent, atmosphere is nice but a bit loud for conversation.
Personally my own experience wasn't that good...my filet mignon ordered medium was very overcooked. The server immediately agreed & removed it, but I had 15 minutes wait for a new one, ordered medium rare to give them a better chance, & still received a tough, charred'tip' cut filet & still overcooked. I had already endured teasing comments from my table about how I was so picky & slowing down dinner. All in fun but I wasn't going to send a second steak back & here more from them, but would have done so if alone. It's a steakhouse... getting the steak perfect is job 1 (also 2 & 3).
Unfortunately, it's either I was not hungry or the food was just above average. For being before at their old spot I know they can cook an amazing steak. It's the Cesar salad I was disappointed in. Otherwise, they still serve the cold slaw, the pickle & the challah as you walk in &, just for that, it's worth a visit.
Awesome steakhouse with amazing meats & perfect service. The dill pickles in brine, & the sour cabbage salad for the table are just an awesome treat. Wines are indeed expensive (pushing it a bit) but you can find something at a decent price. Overall a great place for a special dinner.
