This restaurant is a mixed bag. I ordered the prime rib with fries and apples. Everything was done well. Service was excellent on a Saturday night with no event at the adjacent Bell Centre.
The problem was with the 21$ shrimp cocktail appetizer. The 5 shrimp served were clearly purchased by the restaurant precooked and frozen. This is unforgivable in any eating establishment or home for that matter. You can tell this right away as the shrimp had no elasticity and were slightly mushy. It's not rocket science to purchase fresh seafood and prepare it properly. For some reason, the shrimp were served on a plate instead of on ice. Even more bizarre was the chef's sprinkling of dried herbs on top.
While the rest of the meal was good, my wife noted that the bill including a bottle of wine reached 225$ for 2 people. "We could have just gone to Gibby's" She's absolutely right. If you are going to call yourself a steakhouse and fail to match up to the gold standard in Montreal, you better be selling your product at a substantial discount which is not the case at Baton Rouge. Next time we'll stick to a burger or ribs.
