A Montréal institution, this steakhouse caters to the craving for beef served up with your choice of a selection of traditional French sauces. Fresh fish and seafood simply prepared also star on the menu. Housed in a 200-year old building, the entrance arch stands over what was once the left bank of the Little St. Pierre River. The décor is comfortably rustic with exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings and traditional Québécois pine armoires.

Considered by locals to be one of Canada's best steakhouses, Moishes has been serving delectable steaks since opening in 1938. Should you not care for steak, other choices include salmon, char, veal and lamb. Each charcoal broiling comes with signature Monte Carlo potatoes or hand cut french fries. Great service from the waitstaff, and the wine list is thoroughly impressive, garnering a Wine Spectator award.

This steakhouse, a favorite of business types in the downtown area, is solid in both décor and cuisine. The interior evokes thoughts of an Old World wine cellar and is full of polished woodwork and arched windows, along with an exhibition kitchen crowned with a copper exhaust hood. The lovely space complements the cuisine, which focuses on USDA prime beef, dry aged for up to five weeks. A variety of cuts are available, including their well-known ribeye, or you may choose from lobster, veal, prime rib, lamb and fresh fish. A selection of robust wines accompanies the hearty meals, and you'll also find live jazz and terrace dining. The Montréal Tea Room is an exclusive private dining and conference facility.
