The rib was tender & juicy, & the burger was one of the best I've had, well seasoned & satisfying. Great quality ingredients, excellent service, & a warm atmosphere. We'll definitely be coming back.
I am visiting from Toronto & met a couple Montréal friends for lunch. The lunch menu is a GREAT deal! I had the Chef Special, a tasty tender meaty lamb shank, for only $26. & a glass of Douro red for $12. Our waiter Yannick was very friendly & helpful. Would highly recommend Vargas for weekday lunches.
The food was delicious. I had the 8oz filet mignon with peppercorn sauce. It was cooked just right, & it was tender & very tasty. My wife had the organic salmon meal with deep-fried cauliflower. The salmon was fresh & cooked just right with a delicious mango sauce. Personally, I don't like anything deep-fried. Perhaps, the chef should consider another method to cooking the cauliflower. My friend had the roast beef. Unfortunately, it was not tender. The roast beef should be almost melt-in-mouth tender, & could have had more spice… Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Our waiter Christo, was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional, attentive.
I've been to Vargas a few times over the years & I always find the steaks to be hit or miss. It's hard to knock a place for the steak not being tender & when I've told them about it they've always made something new. Unfortunately it's been 4 out of the 5 times I've gone that someone in our group has had a bad steak. Most recently I had the prime rib which was surprisingly very tough but they replaced it with a filet & a free dessert. The crème Brûlée was probably the best I've ever had. I was there with my son & he got the burger. For kids they charge you 12$ which is nice but it's the same burger on their menu minus the bacon. My son & I both agreed it's probably the best burger I've ever had in my life. It was really good but it was a tad spicy so if that's your thing you'll love it.
Reserved a table for a party of 4, upon arrival he maîtresses d' seemed oddly unwelcoming but we were quickly seated. Waiter was attentive/prompt but he mumbled & was very hard to hear & understand at times. Though the support staff & floor manager were very helpful. Food was amazing! My partner & I both got tenderloin & shared three side, which were all fantastic. Our friend got the salmon, which was very generous & "grilled to perfection", & the prime rib... They didn't describe it much as they were too keen on devouring it. Everything was perfect! Beautifully prepared & very generous proportions.
Can't believe I had never been before... my husband brought me here for Valentine's Day... & what a great meal it was! We ordered: shrimp tempura, beef satay, cap steak, roast beef, grilled mushrooms, fries, & baked potato. My water glass was never empty, the service was excellent overall. While I didn't like the peanut sauce with the satay, the meat was super tender & flavourful on its own, & we were happy the sauce was on the side. The mushrooms were insanely delicious as was my cap steak, the roast beef was good, just nowhere near as good as my steak... looking forward to our next visit!
Had a wonderful dinner with 10 friends - Berta was our service & took amazing care of us. Great advice on what to order.
Shared Tender Kamikaze & additional order of sushi tempura just perfect amount for me.
Portions are large. Steak was tender. Sushi was good.
Friend had French onion soup.
Next time hope to try desserts!
