Awesome meal, service & wine list. The steak poivre is fantastic. Old school French style recipe where they prepare the poivre sauce flambe style tableside. Great cut of meat with a nice crust on outside & cooked perfectly on the inside.
I've eaten at top steak houses around the country & this was one of the best steaks I've had in a while. Poivre sauce is 10/10.View more

The filet mignon was dry & I had to add 10$ for a bernaise sauce that wasn't that good, the chocolate cake of the dessert tasted like store bought cake not bad but not worth the price & to the exception of one of the servers that say hello & was nice the others didn't even bother saying hello before throwing the menuView more

Very overpriced. $46 for 2 crab cakes. $21 for 1 piece of shrimp. Ordered steak. Was very bland tasting. So i had to put sauces on it to digest. Would not recommend at all. I have had better steaks at fairly priced restaurants with more flavors. They have valet parking, service was good, environment was nice. I had the best pina colada ever here. Crab cakes & fries were also good. But for the price i really expected more. Flavor of steak really needs an improvement.View more

Our family loved it. We started with the Chorizo sausage (salty & good!!!), We shared a Ceasar Salad (Just wow!) & I shared a Tuna Tartare with my wife. Everything was just incredible & the sommelier made sure we got a great pairing with all of this. Try the fresh fish & the oysters (fresh, fresh, fresh). I took the Chilean SeaBass & it melted in my mouth. The rest of the family went for Rib steaks, garlic mash potatoes & why not: A poutine with Sauce au poivre. Fast forward to a mille-feuilles & a chocolate cake & we will remember that night for a long time. The service was impeccable too. Thank you! This is where you celebrate. We work hard for these moments.View more

If money is no object & you want the BEST seafood & steakhouse in town - & renown for years with this distinction by public option, then come here & be sure to make a reservation in advance. Here is why you come here. - impeccable service with above server to customer ratio & attention to detail. - the highest quality ingredients - the highest quality standard in a every aspect of the business - top quality Dry & wet aged USDA prime beef on premise & antibiotic free & corn fed - decades (63 years) of consistent success - classic dishes of past like made fresh in front of you such as Caesar Salad, steak au poivre sauce flambe in front of you, crêpes Suzette & cherries jubilee made in front of you & flambé fun, home made (the best in the city ) Apple pie with hand made small batch ice cream from "Glacier Bilboquet" & so so much more - a wine list any world class sommelier would be jealous of - table set up with super fresh breads of all types & bread sticks (unlimited) on the table, crunchy crisp kosher dill pickles, homemade Cole slaw, creamy cottage cheese all plentiful & unlimited. But the real experience is that it's all old school from the attire of the staff to the elegant rich wood interior & decor, to the ambient soft music in the background, to the respectful & happy staff who are amazingly attentive to make certain your experience is nothing short of exceptional. Everything is made in house & there are NO shortcuts at this establishment as it's all a la minute & fresh. The decades seasoned owner Peter has stuck to his principals like a religion & like a religion his patrons have remained loyal in return. There is no other steak place in the city that comes close as its many, many "cuts" above the rest on numerous levels. Must try's: - Rib steak ordered Chicago (charred on the outside) - Monte carlo potatoe with bacon - Caesar or wedge salad - order as a side, their peppercorn sauce for dipping & drizzling - thigh the steak need not any accoutrements to make it taste good, it's just the peppercorn sauce is wicked homemade delicious & a real treat to experience as it's also made in front of you - shrimp cocktail - apple pie a la mode for sure!!! - red wine, they have many & at practically every price point for good quality wines but my fav red is J. Lohr a Californian Cabernet Sauvignon you bc any go wrong. You can park yourself but they also have valet as well as you can take your coat to your table but they also have the classic coat check when you enter.View more

Première fois, ambiance feutrée & excellent service. La nourriture était excellente & la sauce aux poivre un délice! Le cigare room est agréable ensuite pour un bon Macallan. Merci à l'équipe!View more

Je me serais attendu à de la qualité extrême vu leur prix extrême. Mon rib steak & toutes les autres viandes de mes convives nous ont déçu. Pas juteux à souhait, tendreté décevante & respect de la cuisson inégalé. Tous ont demandé médium-saignant leur viande... mais 2 personnes sur 4 ont reçu leur viande médium, voire médium-bien cuit. INACCEPTABLE ! Ces assiettes ont dû être retourné.
Leur sauce d'accompagnement ressemblait à une préparation de sauce en sachet tellement qu'elle n'avait rien de raffinée. Pas fort !
C'était ma toute première expérience... & ma dernière.
Service : Bien exécuté... sans plus.

Les steaks sont ok sans plus. Le service en général est très bien & les lieux sont très beaux. Souvent les sauces en accomoagnement sont à refaire. Les entrés sont pour la plupart très bien

Montrealers are so spoiled
Everything about this place is very posh, very clean, very service oriented. The is the best steakhouse experience I have had in years.
To be honest I was hoping to go try the other place with a strange name about a pony tail, but that spot was not reopened yet.
I was told that the restaurant Rib n Reef has been a well known favourite for many many years. One of the people I met for business 2 weeks ago told me that she used to come here for their roast beef, every week for years.
I can understand why. I had to try it. I also tasted a forkful of filet mignon. The bearnaise sauce was out of this world.
Montrealers are spoiled spoiled spoiled.
You do not know how lucky you are with all of these choices of good restaurants.
The caesar sald was made at the table. Have not seen that since my Las Vegas. All in all, a very satisfying lunch.
Have recommended it to all of my friends in Pennsylvania.
