WE love MOISHES! Unfortunately we only get to Montreal every year or two. When might you open a restaurant in Oakville?!!

Outstanding lunch experience with excellent staff & food. I am not the first person to pick a stakehouse & Moishes gave me some'food' for thought on future choices. Lovely ambiance!

Delicious meal with fantastic service! Our waiter Alan was amazing & made our experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend the lobster appetizer, the pepper sauce for your steak & the mille feuille for dessert!

We started with the beef tartare & Oysters Rockefeller appetizers, then ordered the bone-in filet cooked rare+ to share along with the loaded Monte Carlo potato & lobster mac & cheese. For dessert, we had the crème brûlée & even took a cheesesteak to go.
I'll be honest - I was a little nervous at first because there were so many reservations available, but I'm incredibly glad we decided to come. Our server, Antoine, was outstanding & made the experience even better. Between the exceptional service, perfectly cooked food, & overall atmosphere, this was easily one of the best dining experiences - & the best steak - I've ever had, & we travel quite a bit. Thank you for making our experience everything we wanted!

It was one of the best meals I've had in my lifetime!
The pickles, coleslaw & bread are almost enough for a meal & they are delicious!
I had the cod & creamed corn.
Best ever!
My husband had the bone in rib eye.
Best steak he's ever had. Put The Keg to shame!
Please open a Moishes in Toronto! We need this!

Stumbled into Moishe's on a quiet Sunday morning before the lunch rush, & the dining room already had that lived-in warmth you only find in places that have been doing things right for decades. The dry-aged ribeye I ordered was textbook - properly rested, beautifully charred on the outside, & pink all the way through without being asked twice. The waiter, an older gentleman who clearly knew the menu cold, steered me toward the house-made pickles as a starter & I was glad he did. If you travel enough to know the difference between a steakhouse that's famous & one that actually earns it, Moishe's is firmly in the second category.

My first visit to Moishes Restaurant did not meet the expectations of the original establishment on St. Lawrence Street.

Upon arrival, I encountered an issue with parking. When I parked my car, my wife was not assisted in opening the door. The parking fee was $23, which was not included in the initial charge.

The restaurant's atmosphere was also disappointing. The tables were made of wood without tablecloths, & the chairs were uncomfortable. The service was adequate but unremarkable. My wife enjoyed her rib steak, while I found the filet mignon bone in to be far from the quality of the original Moishes Steakhouse.

A significant issue arose when the waiter presented the bill. Instead of displaying the subtotal before taxes, he presented the full total, including taxes. This practice is not only against the law but also against Quebec's tipping customs.

The overall atmosphere was cold & uninviting, & the staff's demeanour was similarly unfriendly. This experience did not reflect the standards of the original Moishes Steakhouse. It appears to be a standard steakhouse that should reconsider its name. $450 with tip plus $23 valet

Special shout out to our waiter Danny!!! What an amazing evening we had, thank you! Food excellent, service excellent & atmosphere was great!
The only thing is the bathrooms that are mixed genders - I don't like this at all. There should be one for women & one for men.

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.
