  • I've eatern in Gordon Ramsay's The Maze (NYC), Gordon Ramsay's at the London (LA), and Petrus (London). When I got a reservation at Laurier (surprisingly it is not even listed on GordonRamsay.com), I was expecting something better. First impression: entrance. I do not want to sound superficial, but all of Gordon Ramsay's restaurants I've been to had a strict, unspoken dress code. You would never see people dressed badly. Keeping that in mind, I had a nice white shirt, and a nice blazer on. My date had an evening dress on too. Everything like it should be for a nice dinner in a good Montreal restaurant, owned by a world-renowned chef. Guess what, not only entrance was crowded, there was an uncontrolled line-up, nobody would let you through without elbow fighting, but also the whole crowd seemed to be low class, low level, etc. - something you would expect at Schwartz (local super dirty smoked meat place), but not Gordon Ramsay's top notch new place. I get in through the crowd. Given that my reservation was arranged same day by Conde Nast peeps, we got seated pretty quickly. Staff was super friendly, even though, as I later found out, all of the tips are split across all of the staff. Prices: $15-20 per dish seems pretty cheap for a michelin-star-bearing chef place. We asked our waitress what we should order and she suggested their chicken (obviously), sliders, chicken salad, and fish'n'chips. We ordered all of that. Wine selection was pretty interesting, and I found one of my favorite whites. Food service was fast, our waitress was up to speed with us. Food: To be honest I expected much more from Gordon Ramsay. It was regular chicken, the type you would get at the local St. Hubert chain in Montreal. Nothing fancy. I'd pick Les Enfants Terribles fish'n'chips over Gordon Ramsay's any time. Sliders were nothing special too. Bond Lounge and Grill has better ones, and those are not the best in Montreal. Le Hachoir beats GR Laurier sliders by far. All in all, good try, however, I'm not coming back. And not recommending it to my friends.
