| - FOODIES: DO go here!!!!!! You will love it!!
This place is the type of place my parents would enjoy. It's dark, rustic, the server outfits are traditional, and the food is nicely priced, unless you are from Texas. So naturally, this is a well known restaurant in Montreal so it keeps packing in the people.
Being from the less racist part of Texas, I know good steak, this is good steak. I've not had better steak in Denmark. Having traveled the world, and trekked with gorillas, it is rare to take a recommendation from a trusted source without first consulting Yelp but I didn't have Wifi so I went with the suggestion and now I'm thrilled I did. Just kidding, I don't give Yelp that much credit because come on it's Yelp.
There is not a full service bar to eat at so if you're a single person, you will be seated at a table. But fortunately I'm not single, so we got a nice table. My waiter was Asian. Nothing against him at all but from the start, I knew his race would not affect the authenticity of the meal at all.
They bring you bread, butter, pickles and bacon pieces. That's strange but I went with it. All were pretty alright.
We got the 20oz rib steak Gibby's cup with herbs and spices medium rare. It was near perfect. Not he best steak ever but it hit the spot. We were able to share and had leftovers. Also got lobster tail, mushroom tart, and they came with generous portions of sides. All were delicious.
We also got some wine and cognac. Generous pours. Need I say more? Oh, excellent service.
I now know why people dine here, I can't get better food at Texas Roadhouse. That's not surprising. I looked around the dining room and there were both young & old people so I'm guessing it's their reputation or name that keeps them in business.
I would dine there again and highly recommend.
