Les avis décrivent Pinnacle Wagyu comme une adresse incontournable du Vieux Montréal pour les sandwiches au wagyu et les frites, avec des coups de cœur pour le cheesesteak Pinnacle, le steak et frites et les frites à la truffe, la viande étant tendre et bien cuite et les sauces riches; l'ambiance chaleureuse et décontractée, le décor et la localisation près du port ajoutant au charme, et le personnel souvent qualifié et sympathique, tandis que les portions généreuses et les prix jugés justifiés par la qualité reviennent fréquemment; quelques points négatifs subsistent, notamment des frites qui peuvent manquer de cuisson, un bun parfois trop imposant qui masque le goût de la viande, l'absence de toilettes dans certains cas, et des incohérences de service ou d'horaires; malgré tout, Pinnacle Wagyu est perçu comme offrant une expérience gourmande avec une viande de qualité et des sauces savoureuses, donnant envie d'y revenir.
This place is great! I've had the Cheesesteak & the Animal Style fries, & haven't been disappointed. Plus, the ambiance & vibe is right up my alley. Don't forget to order the house lemonade, it will hit the spot with your meal 😁
We kept hearing some variation of'the best Wagyu deli in Montreal,' which immediately raised an important question: are there actually enough, or any, Wagyu delis in Montreal to make this a competitive category? (If so, genuinely, can the aforementioned influencers please enlighten me? I'm interested.)
Anyway, setting aside the dramatic clickbait titles & glowing slow-motion steak videos, we skipped the famous Wagyu-&-fries situation (Steak Frites'On the Road'). Partly because I don't particularly like fries 🤷?♂? & partly because I wanted a sandwich.
Also, I'm not sure if it's there as a joke or for price anchoring, but the idea of a $150 Kobe steak option being on the menu of a mostly takeout sandwich counter raises many philosophical questions...
Instead, we went with the Pinnacle Cheesesteak, which was apparently one of their most recommended items. First, if cheese was present, it was very subtle-we didn't taste it at all. What absolutely did show up was the steak. A lot of it. I definitely got my 20$ worth on that. You mostly taste beef, a vaguely savory sauce, & admittedly solid bread holding everything together pretty well. (Bread is important.)
For what it is, it's alright. It's well located for tourists & locals roaming around the historic area, the portions are good enough, & the pricing feels pretty aligned with other trendy sandwich spots in the city. No major complaints there.
But does it live up to the hype? No, not even close. I think that says more about the marketing style than the food itself, though.

Please just try the Pinnacle Cheesesteak, thank you. (Wagyu steaks on fries is also good, but that damn sandwich is just amazing! Will come back to try other sandwiches...)
The wagyu in their cheesesteak was succulent & so tender. The animal style fries was loaded with flavour. Amazing elevated deli in the middle of old Montreal
I had a really great experience at Pinnacle Wagyu. You can tell they take a lot of pride in the quality of their food, & the beef really stands out. My personal favorites are the steak & fries & the Pinnacle cheesesteak. The steak was cooked perfectly & full of flavor, & the fries were crispy & delicious. The cheesesteak was also super juicy & packed with flavor.
The cheese steak is so good. I took one bite & bought 2 more. My girlfriend took the burger & also really enjoyed her food. We spoke to Amir the owner & he was very friendly & helpful to us. I definitely recommend this deli.
I'll start off by saying damn that steak was delicious much better then the steak I had at a neighboring steakhouse which was over twice the price.
The reason I did not give 5 starts is because the burger was honestly really bad. I got a single patty burger because based on the picture the patty was a bit chunky & 1 seemed like enough. However, it was very thin but the meat itself tasted very good. The reason the burger was bad is because the bun was so big that I couldn't taste the meat. I ended up removing the patty to eat it on its own. The other toppings weren't anything special also. I give the burger 2/5.
I'll try the cheesesteak next time.
Please change the picture of the burger to reflect the actual product, change the bun so it doesn't mask the amazing taste of the meat. The meat is really good you should let it shine.

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
Une très belle expérience & une délicieuse découverte du cheesestack grâce au conseil du jeune homme présent derrière le comptoir ce jeudi midi. Au plaisir de reveni
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.
