So I was in Montreal visiting the In laws...
I thought it would be nice to take them to a nice dinner...
I researched many Steakhouses The one with the best reveiws was Queue de Cheval but got poopooed cause it was too costly so we ended up at Du Vieux Port....
no parking so we had to find a place on the street... thenwalk in below zero temps to get to the restuarant... (-1star I hate the cold and having to manage not slipping on patchs of ice did not put me in the best of moods)
as soon as we walked in we were greeted but a blast of warm air =) and french =( we had reservations and were promted seated at a lovely window sit... the room felt like you were dinning in a fancy dining room in someone's house... very warm and cozy...and yet upscale and romantic ...
the room kinda raises your expectations of the food =(
In a party of 6, 5 of us got steaks... mine was the pepper steak... but it didn't taste different then my husbands bone in rib eye or my mother in laws prime rib or my father in laws New york steak =/ all the steaks came with a 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes and grilled tomato, onions, summer squash. They were all very tender but the fact they all tasted the same was disappointing to me =(
Brother in law had the Santa fe chicken or something like that it looked good but i didn't try it.
for a party of 6 the tab came to $275 US w/ wine and tip.
for almost $50 person it was no Ruth Chris'
