Situé au coeur du centre-ville, dans le quartier des affaires, Vargas dessert à pieds tous les plus grands hôtels de Montréal. Cette idée originale et cette localisation centralisée, ne peuvent à elles seules favoriser un tel succès. Une équipe visionnaire, motivée et expérimentée s’assure que votre expérience soit absolue. Vargas, c’est Mike Digaletos, passionné et fin connaisseur en sommellerie et Stefano Apostolatos, homme d’affaires aguerri, qui sont parties prenantes de toutes les décisions depuis le tout début. C’est une grande fierté que l’entreprise soit opérée par la même famille depuis presque deux décennies.
Vargas est perçu comme une adresse de qualité offrant une palette variée allant des steaks et viandes maturées tels que ribeye, filet mignon, tomahawk et prime rib, à des plats de fruits de mer et des sushis, avec des desserts soignés et des sauces appréciées; l'ambiance et la présentation des plats sont souvent soulignées comme exceptionnelles et le cadre est décrit comme chaleureux et élégant, parfois animé avec une rénovation du bar rappelant un grand restaurant de New York; le service est généralement apprécié pour son professionnalisme et sa convivialité, mais des observations ponctuelles sur la lenteur ou des erreurs de plats existent, compensées par des serveurs attentifs et des conseils avisés; les portions et la qualité des ingrédients sont louées et les menus du midi ou les offres table d'hôte sont vus comme de bonnes valeurs, même si certains commentaires signalent un rapport qualité-prix variable selon les plats et l'occasion; dans l'ensemble Vargas apparaît comme une destination fiable pour des dîners importants et des repas d'affaires, avec une offre attrayante et une expérience de salle à manger qui peut être mémorable.
In Montreal for vacation & chose Vargas for our dinner the first night. They had just reopened & have a new menu. We shared the ahi tuna tartare, my husband ordered filet with shrimp & scalloped potatoes for his sides & I had the salmon wellington. Every bite was delicious, perfectly cooked & properly seasoned. I wish we had room for dessert. Our server Roberto was great. Highly recommend Vargas!
This will be my one & only time at Vargas, sorry to say. The vibe was nice staff polite but the food was very bland, the tomahawk steak was absolutely disgusting. I have never paid so much for terrible food in my life. If a 160$ steak was that bad then i am afraid to say anything cheaper would be any better.
the entire place stinks of meat! no smiles to be found on any worker's face & the energy of the servers/hostess was just off... the sushi however was DELIGHTFUL! the fish was fresh & the portions were satisfying.

WoW! C était vraiment excellent & Délicieux ... un accueil chaleureux, une table près des fenêtres , notre fabuleux & super attentionné serveur M, Roberto est vraiment à son affaire... tout était parfait 👌... nous y sommes allés ce vendredi soir & nous avons déjà très hâte d y retourner, nous, nous sommes régalé avec tout, tout , tout! Merci beaucoup à toute votre belle équipe!
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.
Restaurant haut de gamme, très propre, bon service, cuisine bonne avec assiete belle & fournit, mais salle bruyante avec musique un peu forte, les clients parlent donc fort. Pas adapté poir des enfants même si le personnel s'adapte. Mais on recommande.
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.
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.
Dinner for 4: The food was not fresh... 3 plates out of 4 were returned because one plate was overcooked, another undercooked with the wrong steak requested, & the fish smelled very bad & tasted funny. They ended up replacing the fish plate with a salmon plate, which was much better. The other two steaks were replaced without a problem. The waitress's service was super nice. I have nothing to say about that. We took two bottles of red wine for our meals & both bottles were very cold. Red wine shouldn't be that cold... it spoils the taste. Will not be going again.
Nice restaurant that I thought was in the Fairmont hotel but actually right next to it. I had the Walleye filet fish which was very flavorful along with the rice & veggies. My friend had the salmon that looked delicious as well & his plate was empty afterwards. The staff was nice but I felt like our waiter didn't introduce himself to us. It was my birthday which i noted on the reservation, but not acknowledged in any way. Tasty bread & drinks.
