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.
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.
I recently tried Pinnacle Wagyu & had a really great experience overall. I ordered the On the Road Wagyu & really enjoyed it.
It wasn't the most tender Wagyu I've had, but it was still incredibly flavorful & genuinely delicious, the taste definitely stood out. The truffle fries were also amazing & paired really well with the meal. Everything felt fresh & thoughtfully prepared.
There was a bit of a wait as the restaurant was quite busy, which is understandable given how popular it's been getting online. I can definitely empathize with the staff; they handled everything professionally despite the rush.
Overall, I was really impressed & would absolutely go back again soon !!

We finally got to try Pinnacle Wagyu & we loved every bite. The steak & truffle fries are simple yet very packed with flavour 🤌🏻🤌🏻
Will definitely go back to try more items on the menu ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
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...)
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.
W O W!! Came to Montreal for the new years & have tried different places but pinnacle Wagyu TAKES THE CAKE! Amazing atmosphere, great staff & even better food. Would give 6 Stars If I could

Pinnacle Wagyu Deli delivers an incredible dining experience that exceeds expectations. I ordered the double smash burger, & it was nothing short of amazing. The beef was perfectly cooked-juicy, flavorful, & packed with that signature Wagyu richness that melts in your mouth. The fresh lettuce & tomatoes added the perfect crisp balance, & the bun was soft yet sturdy enough to absorb all the delicious juices from the patty without falling apart. Every bite was a perfect combination of flavor & texture. The fries were equally impressive-crispy, golden, & served in a generous portion easily enough for two people to share. From presentation to taste, everything felt thoughtfully crafted. Pinnacle Wagyu Deli clearly takes pride in quality ingredients & top-tier preparation. If you're craving a gourmet burger experience that leaves you satisfied & impressed, this place absolutely hits the mark. Highly recommended for any burger lover.

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.
Me & my husband tried the Pinnacle Cheesesteak & it was stunning, best cheesesteak I've had in a long while. The wonderful lady at cash gave us the recommendation & did not disappoint. Definitely worth it.
Pinnacle Wagyu Deli is a fantastic new addition to Old Montreal! 🥩 We discovered it during our Montreal Sandwich Challenge, & it definitely impressed us - from the juicy Wagyu beef to the perfectly grilled cheesesteak-style sandwich.
The interior decor is elegant & modern, creating a relaxed & upscale deli vibe. We loved the attention to detail in both the food & the space. Plus Amir was really friendly to speak with.
Bonus: in the summer, they offer a small outdoor patio with amazing views of the Old Port - perfect for a tasty lunch in the sun.
Even though it's a newer spot, it already feels like a local gem. Highly recommend it for sandwich lovers looking to try something a little more gourmet!
A must-try when visiting Old Montreal. Grab a table on their patio to people-watch while you savour the deliciousness of their sandwiches. Service was friendly & accommodating. My kids who have nut allergies devoured their cheesesteak sandwiches while I enjoyed my vegan jackfruit'pulled-pork' sandwich. My youngest proclaimed Pinnacle Wagyu to be better than Schwartz's!! ;)
Pinnacle Wagyu Deli offers delicious steak sandwiches & a tasty poutine. High-quality meat, generous portions, & great flavors. Perfect spot in Old Town.
First time trying it & it was amazing. High quality beef that is very well prepared !! We had the'steak on the road', The pinnacle sandwich & the animal fries & everything was super good. My favorite was the sandwich !! Simple food & they dnt try to over complicate it which is great to see. Only remark we have (very silly one too) is the wooden forks were not easy to use for the steaks. The guy at the register (i think it is the owner) was super nice & pleasant to deal with :)
