Pinnacle Wagyu draws praise for its high quality Wagyu beef, juicy steaks and standout truffle fries, with many reviewers calling the steaks and cheesesteaks among the best they have had and the fries a must order. The atmosphere and service are repeatedly highlighted as friendly and welcoming, contributing to a lively vibe, though a few visits felt inconsistent. Price is often described as a bit high, yet most feel the quality justifies it, while a small number of comments note that some items do not meet expectations, such as burgers whose bun masks the meat or a cheesesteak that could be undersalted or uneven. The menu is praised for variety, including animal style fries and parmesan truffle fries, with many leaving satisfied and planning to return to try more dishes. Overall the reviews suggest Pinnacle Wagyu is a top choice for meat lovers seeking gourmet sandwiches and well prepared Wagyu with generous portions and bold flavors, though occasional consistency and value improvements could elevate the experience.
Had the steak frites which was pretty good. Affordable menu. It's very small inside, maybe 5-6 tables. No restroom. Staff is good. Might try the steak sandwich next time
Horrific sandwich. Thinner than paper & drier than the dessert. I know beef is expensive, but this is unforgivable & unforgettable! I wanted to this love this place. :(

Good spot in the Old Port with a cozy setup. The steak sandwich stood out, the pulled beef burger was enjoyable, & the smashed burger was just average. Fries were on point & the fresh lemonade was a nice touch.
Le proprio vraiment chill en a discuté pendant un bon moment avant de me servir se delice la. Le sandwich vraiment tres bon. J'y allerais encore si je suis dans le coin!
First time customer & definitely not the last time! We ordered the Cheesesteak sandwich with a side of Caesar salad. The sandwich was amazing; the steak was great quality & was cooked perfectly. It melted in your mouth. The cheese & sauce were perfect. The Caesar salad was a pleasant surprise & was a great side meal. Overall a 10/10
Overrated & overpriced sandwiches.
Taste is not bad, but it's not rich.
There is no restroom & tables are super wobbly you can't lean properly on them.
One of, if not the best steak sandwich I have ever eaten. The thick slices of meat were tender & juicy, the bread was crispy on the outside & soft & moist on the inside. It was divine! Amir was fun to talk to while waiting for our sandwiches. I can't wait to go back & try the other menu items, but I don't know if Ill be able to resist the cheesesteak sandwich!

Try their staple - chess steak sandwich made with wagyu meat. Is it a bit of a gimmick? Maybe, but the reality is most cheesesteaks are made with ribeye meat that is mostly void of fat, making the cheese stand out rather than the meat.
The opposite is true here. You will see & taste large chunks of beef in your sandwich. An interesting take on cheesesteaks for sure.
Try the truffle fries as well.
A little pricey, but hey it's wagyu, & it's old Montreal. 🤷?♂?
Best Philly cheese steak sandwich in Montreal by far. The sandwich is made with real steak & the taste is heavenly 😋. The service is good & a cosy ambiance.

Outrageously delicious!!! Went on a weekday & on the weekend, & my sandwich was equally delicious. I was worried this would be another''instababe spot'' & to my great surprise it was wayyyyyy beyond my expectations. The owners understand the elements of a great sandwich & they have succeeded. Mention spéciale for the truffle fries; perfection.
Thank you for existing 💜💚
One of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The cheese, mushrooms, & steak were very fresh. The steak was cooked perfectly (medium - medium rare). Animal fries sauce was excellent. Great & friendly staff. Will come here again for sure!
Loved the steak sandwich. So flavourful & nicely toasted bread. If you're looking for something quick & good in Old Montreal this is the place! Had it as a late night snack. Would definitely come again.
A must-visit for anyone who loves a gourmet sandwich done right at very affordable prices. Retro-vibe decor & friendly staff make you feel welcome.
Their Wagyu steaks are seriously high quality, juicy, flavourful, & cooked just right (that char is perfection!). I had the Pinnacle Cheesesteak, the Wagyu on the Road with truffle/parmesan fries, & both were outstanding. MUST is the Animal-Style poutine, it's extremely addictive or as the hubby call it (it's crack 😂)
The lemonades were super refreshing, exactly what you need after a hearty sandwich.
The service is spot on, attentive, kind, & fast! Portion sizes are generous & every bite felt worth it.
Overall, this place delivers: flavour, quality, & atmosphere all in one. I'll definitely be back next time I'm craving a really good sandwich in Vieux-Montréal.

This was hands down, the best steak sandwich I have ever eaten! At this price point, an amazing bang for your buck. The pinnacle loaded fries were as expected, amazingly decadent!
I am already looking forward to having this again!
We ordered the Parmageddon chicken sandwich & the Pinnacle Wagyu cheesesteak to go.
The Parmageddon wasn't bad, the chicken was decent & the flavors were there, but it seriously lacked sauce, which made it feel a bit dry. With more sauce, it could have been much better.
The Pinnacle Wagyu cheesesteak, on the other hand, was disappointing. The meat had no flavor, some parts were burnt, others chewy, & there was no sauce at all. The bread was the only good part.
For the price, the quality just wasn't there. On the positive side, the person at the front desk was very nice & welcoming, & the décor inside the place looks great. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to expectations.
Super bon! À essayer! Staff super gentil & la nourriture étaient vraiment bonne! Ambiance & musique 👌! On va revenir dès qu'on a envie d'un bon philly steak cheese sandwich & steak with fries 👌
Excellent sandwich & wagu steak frites. Delicious, very reasonably priced & good portion sizes. Staff were great. Would highly recommend for an informal but delicious quick meal or lunch
Super bon , la viande est très bonne cuisson maîtrisée , la sandwich est bien équilibré & gourmand, concept original aussi. Très bon service aussi & le patron est très sympathique.
Il faut encourager des jeunes qui ouvrent des bons projets de qualité comme celui-là .
