This is my second time visiting here. The first time, we had a less than stellar experience as one of our party's streak was first under cooked, then over cooked. While they did take it off the bill, it was disappointing. This visit, however, they knocked it out of the park! All of our steaks were perfectly cooked. The sides were absolutely delicious. The wine selection was huge. Our server was extremely attentive but not intrusive. One of our party ordered the sushi platter & it looked incredible. He said that it was delicious as well.

Had a nice meal, steak was tasty & sushi was well prepared. Our server, Pascal, was awesome! Very friendly, great recommendations, & just a really cool guy. The restaurant is undergoing renovations to make it look more modern, which will help with the atmosphere. All in all, we had a great time & the food was very good.

The menu is dated. On the steak side, it's exactly what you would have gotten at any steakhouse 25 years ago. I had a Kansas cut, which was flavorful. The sides were a bit sad: the toppings on the Monte Carlo mashed potatoes were not generous, & the veggies were uninspired. On the sushi side it's competent but unimaginative. You can easily find much better elsewhere. The service was friendly but there were a few small mistakes (I had to ask for a steak knife, they left an empty wine glass on the table, etc). They are currently renovating part of the place, perhaps this will be the occasion for them to revamp things a bit? It would be nice for Montreal to have a truly innovative & upscale steakhouse.

Exceptional service, fine dining! The restaurant accommodated us for a large group minutes before arriving & did a fantastic job! Must try their sushi or meat!

Pour être honnete, meilleur steak vieilli 90 jours de ma vie, cuisson parfaite. Les sushis etait très frais, vraiment recommandé. Les contres maintenants: tartare de boeuf beaucoup trop piquant, sauce au poivre médiocre, vraiment décevant pour un steak house, beaucoup trop réduite, beaucoup trop de poivre, je ne crois pas qu'il y avait de la crème fraiche ni de cognac. Une discution avec le chef s'impose.

Was here on Saturday, F1 night. Had an absolute garbage dinner at The Keg the previous night (only place to get a seat unfortunately) The great experience I had at Vargus was due to the bar staff: Joanne & the blond girl (I apologize but I didn't get her name) These 2 girls are the most outgoing, qualified, personable bartenders /hostesses I have ever been around. Friendly from the initial "hello", great to chat with about things while still servicing the busy bar & service area. Smiles the whole time & it was crazy busy. Two of the most genuine people I have interacted with in a very long time. I'm from Ottawa & I would come up for a night just to have dinner because of these 2 girls. I was with a buddy, in for the weekend, & we had a great time. Steak & sushi were fantastic as well. Great place to have dinner for sure & I will be back. Thanks to everyone for the great experience :)

Reserved the place for two friends & I for a bachelor's dinner. Not busy at all on a Sunday considering it's the long weekend. Ordered two platters of sushi accidentally but didn't regret it, a Porterhouse with fillet mignon. Food was absolutely phenomenal & the service was impeccable. Recommend this place 10/10

Food - their Lamb shanks, BBQ ribs, salmon plate are great. Tried their sushi for the first time, not bad at all. Onion soup is delicious with the old gruyere cheese. Cesar salad never disappoints. Their portion size varies from one dish to another. Service- nothing to complain about. Always good. Atmosphere- if you want a quiter ambience, do not sit near the bar. Otherwise, the ambience is great.

The steak was amazing. Rib eye fry aged 28 days to perfection. The sushi on the other hand was lacking, & probably not even on par with your typical all you can eat joint. The service was great, but it seemed like a restaurant made more for business meetings than to celebrate special occasions. Overall, if you are looking for great cocktails & steaks, would recommend.

Mid food Streak frite was expensive for what you're getting ,the fries are soggy but the meat is okay. The calamaries are tasteless & the batter crumble as soon as you touch it Sushis are fresh but again expensive (50 for 20 pieces) The apple cheese cake was old & it's graham base soggy. The Ferrero chocolate cake was absolutely tasteless
