About

Moishes Steakhouse focuses on high quality cuts of meat prepared with precision using traditional grilling methods. The menu centers on prime beef selections aged to achieve maximum tenderness and flavor profile. Patrons encounter a variety of fresh seafood options that supplement the meat centric offerings. Each steak undergoes searing over high heat to lock in natural juices while creating a distinct charred crust. The interior layout utilizes dark wood textures and leather seating to establish a grounded professional environment. Staff members provide consistent technical service focused on the prompt delivery of plates and beverages. This establishment maintains a rigorous commitment to ingredient sourcing and culinary consistency for every preparation of fish and grill specialties.

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!

We went to dinner at Moishes early on a Saturday night & had an amazing dinner. The staff made us feel like we were the only people in the restaurant. They took their time with us, & we never felt rushed. The manager David was very friendly & made sure we had everything we needed. Our waiter (I forget his name) was very nice, & made sure everything was perfect. The food was perfect, & very high quality. Thank you Moishes for an amazing dinner!

I have been going to Moishes since 1994. For almost 30 yrs I've enjoyed the best steak you can get anwyere period fullstop. The meet was flavourful, soft, marbled, just delicious. It was made with what I always assumed was butter. The steaks were phenomenal. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also something else. I loved the classic look of a restaurant that had survived since 1938. The red velvet & mahogany wall, the tables of patrons who all seemed to know each other. Mostly because they had been eating at this very special place for generations. Fast forward 6 or 7 yrs since my last visit. What a difference. As the Beetles once said: "There are places I remember....some have changed for ever, but not for better." Well the Moishes of today has nothing to do with the Moishe we all loved. Atmosphere: There was nothing warm or enticing. No sense of belonging to a community. Now it's just another big modern restaurant I see in Toronto all the time. Just another fancy "Keg" of sorts. The Service & Staff: Top notch. The servers & staff were absolutely fantastic. Professional, polite & engaging. The restaurant is lucky to have such amazing staff. Food: This is the saddest part. The meat quality is not the same. I opted for the Kansas Strip Loin. It was tough & sinewy. The potato was excellent & the pickle & coleslaw were great too. But the steak itself was nothing to write home about! THIS IS NOT THE MOISHES I SO EXCITEDLY DROVE TO MONTREAL TO VISIT. I'm sorry new owners. I'm sure you'll milk the brand name for all its worth. You have made the clientele younger so less picky about food quality I guess. It makes me sad that after 30 years of patronage, I will not be going there again. The only saving grace was incredibly kind & helpful server. I wish I could remember her name to thank her personally. But if you are a young blonde woman who was serving two middle aged men sitting at a table between the window & the bar, then you deserve recognition. EXCELLENT SERVICE! The presentation looked good, but the steak was dry, sinewy & tough.
