| - I was in Canada to lay my mother's ashes to rest. My family met my cousin the night before at Marco's restaurant and we loved the area so we decided to come back. I agree with another person saying they have an attractive young lady at the door to "lure" people in. The décor is lovely, the view is wonderful. The food and drinks are average to below average, and I definitely do NOT recommend the steak! What a joke it is that they call themselves a steakhouse. My Dad and husband ordered fish and chips which were fair, but it came with a spicy mayo type sauce instead of traditional tartar. I have to say in all the years I have traveled to Montreal I have never had an average or bad meal up until our lunch here. The food in Montreal is amazing, and the beef is beyond compare. I decided to order a 6 ounce filet mignon (medium-medium rare). The presentation was exciting, but the meat was super well done. As soon as the server saw it she immediately said they would re cook a new one. The second one was gross. First of all, it was definitely NOT filet. It was super fatty, really tough and stringy, and they butterflied the meat to cook it which tells me it was probably frozen. To make it worse, they actually put Old Bay seasoning on the meat?! I tried to take a few bites but it was really awful. I am a very good cook, and I cook Filet Mignon on my grill here and know it only takes about 5-6 minutes a side to get it perfect. Plus, filet is always tender. We didn't make a big deal out of it, and I told our apologetic waitress to feed it to her dog. The staff was all nervous and the vibe was really off. As I was leaving I saw a man who seemed to be the owner yelling at a busboy and I figured the owner was a jerk. They did not take the meat off the bill, which they should have really. To call this place a "premier steakhouse" is like saying McDonalds is a "premier" hamburger joint. Also, we ordered a cocktail (long island iced tea) and it barely tasted like it had alcohol in it. I would only recommend this place if you are ordering a draft beer and maybe the escargot or a salad. I would have given this place even 3 stars but the owner's handling of the situation put the whole staff on edge, and made us pay for food that wasn't edible. Even if they took part of the 28$ off it would have been fair since I did eat fries and the grilled vegetables. I felt sorry for the staff.
