Review Summary

Vargas is widely regarded as a sleek, upscale downtown Montreal destination that excels at providing a sophisticated atmosphere for both business meetings and celebratory occasions. Many patrons praise the quality of the steaks, noting that the meat is often cooked to perfection and full of flavor, while the addition of fresh, high-quality sushi adds a unique and enjoyable variety to the menu. While the service is frequently described as professional, attentive, and charismatic, some visitors have reported inconsistencies regarding wait times, occasional errors, or frustration with tipping and pricing structures. Despite a few mixed experiences concerning specific dishes or side options, the restaurant consistently earns high marks for its vibrant environment, excellent drink selection, and the welcoming nature of its staff.

They say they close 11:00pm & they didn't let us in at 10:10pm.

While the steak was absolutely amazing, the whole experience was spoiled by our waiter who DEMANDED an exorbitant tip which was not deserved since he forgot some parts of our order...& went on raging that he would have to pay the restaurant out of his pocket for our service!??? How so? Tips should be deserved & restaurants SHOULD PAY THEIR WORKERS PROPERLY, NOT THE CUSTOMER! 75% of Montréal residents already complain about rude waiters! This is 2026, wake up! This completely ruined our 30th wedding anniversary & our son's graduation dinner...NO THANK YOU!!!!!

Overpriced overhyped.
They don't salt nothing, & they refuse to leave the salt on the table 😂
BYO-salt.

Octopus was fine nothing special which is disappointing.
Steak was mid but a party liked the filet mignon & mushrooms & potatoes (it's hard to mess up potatoes though)

Service was great! But it took forever to get our food.

Great steakhouse. The Caesar salad was crisp, with the perfect tang & just the right amount of Parmesan in the dressing. The calamari, foie gras, lamb shank, & beef tartare were all delicious. The others in my party ordered steaks & said they were cooked perfectly, accompanied by textbook-classic sauces.

What more can I say other than this was the best fish I've had in a very long time. Everything was perfect, delicious, & incredibly tasty. The service was attentive, fast, & courteous. A perfect score - I will definitely be coming back.
