Where do I start? This place was exceptional. Joe Beef has had a lot of attention because it's great but also because Bourdain has made mention of it many times when he talks about Montreal. You should not expect to walk in and get a table, yes that is how in demand this place is in the restaurant scene. My friend Matt was committed to getting in to this place during our guys weekend to Montreal alas NO RESERVATIONS. We decided to call Joe Beef a couple of hours before they opened and please our border crossing, meat loving, fine dining case to whoever would listen. After a bit of persuasion we were accommodated with a table that the staff described as a low table and not that exciting. It would turn out to be, in my opinion, the nicest place in the restauarant. They have a concrete patio table and benches in the middle of their garden in the back of the restaurant. It was a casual affair so it was perfect. We had not been there before so we asked our server to bring us (5 guys) the menu you think we should have and we will go with that. From the GIANT steak, salad, oysters, and so on it was really good on every level. A lot of there menu is seasonal so I will not dive in to specifics because it will be different and updated possibly when you get there. If you have an opportunity i would recommend you check it out. Bourdain did not miss the mark on this place and whenever I am within range I will try to talk them in to giving me a table for dinner.
