20 of Montreal’s Best Steakhouses for Surf and Turf

"For a good steak, sometimes it’s necessary to look beyond the downtown core. 40 Westt is a notable West Island establishment for steak, as diners enjoy their open market set-up with an open dry-aging locker where selections are made while listening to live music." - JP Karwacki, Tim Forster

I would have given 5 stars, but I found the service to be a little lacking, considering I expected this to be a higher end restaurant. The hostess did her job but didn't seem at all enthusiastic or very friendly. Our waitress forgot to ask if we wanted coffee with our dessert and didn't offer pepper with the soup or meal. Despite all this, the service was good in general, the food was fantastic, the wine pairings were superb and the ambiance was very nice, for a lunch crowd.

A dear friend introduced me to this incredible restaurant for my birthday, and I’ve been a regular ever since! The steak is cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and the entire menu showcases culinary excellence. The service is impeccable, attentive, and warm. The Saturday jazz music adds a delightful, sophisticated vibe, making every visit truly memorable. Highly recommend this gem for a special night out!

40 Westt is basically the place to go to on the West Island if you want 100% best food best service and beautiful surroundings. I can't get over how perfect their steaks are... Every single time and their chocolate souffle? Forget it. I'm not even a sweets person. But it's a must.

Had an awesome experience at 40 Westt, the food was excellent so was the service. I loved how high end the place was and felt. For a full experience be ready to spend 150-200$/ person(tax and tip incl).

Beautifully decorated for the holiday season. As usual, service was top notch. This tine, I ordered (new to me) the milk fed calf liver. It was amazing and not surprised it is a top selection. My wife had the rack of lamb. Add the terrific wine, and the whole lunch was amazing.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at 40 Westt Steakhouse in Montreal, and it was hands down the best restaurant experience I’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, the stunning decor took our breath away—the ambiance is both elegant and welcoming. The food? Absolutely amazing. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and the presentation was impeccable. The drinks were equally outstanding, crafted with precision and care, making each sip a delight. What truly made the night unforgettable was the exceptional service. Our waiter, Michael, was not only incredibly helpful but also had a great sense of humor, making us laugh throughout the evening. He went above and beyond, even helping with our twins, which made the experience so much more enjoyable for us as a family. If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience in Montreal, 40 Westt Steakhouse is the place to be. I can’t recommend it enough!

I recently organized and celebrated a milestone birthday for my husband and sister in law yesterday at 40 Westt. The entire experience made me feel like I was in good hands. Everything from the planning with Nia and Anthony of the private room and menu to the food and the service with our amazing waiters Michael and Ethan to the greeting at our arrival and the atmosphere made every person in our group feel like VIP’s. My family has booked several major events as well as dined casually at your restaurant, and after last night we will most definitely continue to do so. I highly recommend. Congratulations on a job well done and thank you!!!

Was in town with a group from work. Excellent steak and seafood selection, calamari and octopus appetizers were unique but excellent. Steaks prepared and presented as you would expect from a restaurant like this. Service was attentive but not smothering.

When you have money to burn, the opulent setting of 40 Westt is your place for an overpriced steak. Your excellent servers will be very glad to take 15-20% of your bill.

Great MtL style steakhouse, a bit pricey but what steakhouse is not? Service is good and has that MTL old/modern steakhouse feeling. Not an everyday spot but one for special occasions.

World Class Food & Service Wow Wow Wow, what an excellent experience. We chose 40 Westt for our company holiday supper and we are so happy that we did. Anthony overseas his team with great detail and pride. From the moment we walked in, the 3 hostesses received us with glowing smiles and all the assistance we needed to feel welcomed. Our food varying from steaks to seafood was nothing less than perfection. Our waitress Farah gave us exceptional service from beginning to end, her recommendations were on point for everyone and she never steered from our every need. Although this was not our first time at 40 Westt, overall I have to say that this is one of our finest dining experiences. It all ran smoothly, everything was delicious and we wanted for nothing. I can only say with great conviction that I would highly recommend to all who seek the best of the best. Best & Thanks, Marcel

So I've heard rave reviews about this place. I am frequently in the area on business and make it a point to try different places every time. I was sadly dissatisfied in both the food and the service. The wait staff was distracted and not very helpful for a first timer at the restaurant. I started with ordering the lobster bisque and was immediately turned off. It was a bland brown mess with no lobster to speak of, just broth with greasy oil drizzled on top. I moved on and ordered filet mignon with spinach and a wedge salad. The steak did no resemble the tender cut I was expecting. Honestly it looked more like a New York than a filet. The wedge salad was covered with a thick ranch that should have been called blue cheese. Needless to say I didn't finish the salad, barely touched it actually. The waiter, after taking over an hour with my simple meal, packed the to go box and mixed the hot spinach with the salad. So the leftovers are ruined because cooked spinach and wedge salad just don't mix. No clue why he couldn't separate the two. Then took almost 20 minutes to bring the check, meanwhile closing out the tables near me. He sheepishly apologized and said he didn't know i wanted the check. Hmm, let's see, done with meal, had to go containers, declined coffee and dessert and asked for the check. But he didn't know I was finished? . I arrived at the restaurant at 6:30pm and left at 8:30. Ridiculously long for a single diner. The simple meal, with tip was just a hair under $200. Honestly, I had a better meal at Madison's for $75.

Came here for a friends birthday as a treat for us all Location Easy to find in the West Island off the 40 and sources Blvd Parking They have there own parking lot. Tons of free parking. Atmosphere You have two options The dinner room or the bar side. We opted for the bar side with live entertainment. No matter what option you chose you will have a greAt time and experience. Price It's considered fine dinning and the prices will resemble that. Food We had a dozen oysters. They were cleaned and fresh and one can get. I love mine with Tabasco and fresh lemon We shared the Tomahawk steak for two. Cooked Pittsburg style. Charred on outside and rare on inside . Cooked perfectly. They did not cheat and have the right grill to get charred done. Some places cheat and use butter but not here. Side we had fries, asparagus which were done right We also had the bass with rice and vegetables Bass was cooked the way I like tender and fluffy and the sauce was light but tons of flavour. A little bit to much salt but it still came out great For dessert we had latte and the chocolate cake For a treat it's a great place to visit. Not on the cheap side but you get what you pay for. Enjoy

Was there for a friend's wedding proposal. We had this big balloons and yet the servers or whatever you want to call the front desk, put us at a table where the balloons with disturb other people. And when we asked for a different table, somewhere a little more secluded so we don't disturb other people. It took a while to actually get a table. Besides that the waiters and waitresses were pretty nice, a little slow but I mean they said they were low on staff, so I guess that's understandable. The entrées were pretty good, the food as well was pretty good. The restaurant was a little fancy for my taste, would I go back? Not really, but I mean it was a nice restaurant.

Not great for a steak restaurant and expensive. Stick to US if you're aiming for steak. Also the grilled calamari was simply just not done right, they braised it and then cooked it which tasted like chicken. This is NOT how you do grilled calamari. Expected a lot more from this restaurant. Looks fancy but the food is not great for the price

I have no choice but to post how rude the staff was to me tonight at 40 west in DDO Montreal. From the parking attendant , the receptionist the waiter and then the manager ,I recieved nothing but aggravation on my birthday dinner. We walked out , their loss. We are quests not people to be treated with arrogance. We are the customer. The place is too noisy and overpriced and staffed with sullen fake people. I am never setting foot at 4 West ever again . Beware of that restaurant .

Wow this is by far the fanciest place I've ever been to. When you walk into 40 west you feel like your on another planet. By the hostess stand you can see many cuts of meat on display that can even actually be brought home. There's a coach check option as well so you don't have to worry about coming here in the winter with a big thick coat. Once seated the menu is great there's so much to choose from it's hard to pick just one you have plenty of meat and seafood that you will not be going home disappointed. Personally I went with the 6oz fillet mignon and Caribbean lobster tail with the sautés spinach as my side. The meat was cooked perfectly and melted in the mouth and the lobster was juicy and buttery. The waiters were excellent and made sure that the experience was the absolute best water was always refilled without having to ask bread and butter were always provided and they were friendly about any question or modification. I wish I could better describe the experience but you really need to be there yourself

Absolutely the best place in Montreal for fresh and flavorful meat and seafood. Decided to come here for my birthday supper. Have missed it since we couldn't do indoor dining till a week ago. Knowledge wait staff and we were very happy with Dave who was not only friendly but always around if we needed anything. You must try it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

This is probably my favorite steakhouse. I came here many years ago with my brothers for our birthday and it was awesome. So I was excited to go back on Saturday. We were a group of over 20 people to celebrate a friend's birthday. Despite the fact that we were many the food was cooked to perfection and the service was amazing. We had no choice but select from the group menu. I liked that on the cover of the printed group menu were the words "Happy Birthday Medy & Hani". I had never seen a restaurant do that before . I had the salmon tartare with smoked chipotle, avocado and cucumber. It was fresh and light. My boyfriend had the grilled calamari with onions and capers which he really enjoyed. I rather eat grilled octopus or fried calamari than grilled calamari so I didn't share his enthusiasm. My boyfriend had gotten up to make me a drink since we had bottle service and the gin, vodka and chasers were located behind the table. Meanwhile a waiter came and thought he was done with his grilled calamari plate and took it away. He had maybe 1/4 left on his plate. Our waitress saw that I had a look on my face so she came over to me and I explained to her that he was not finished and that the waiter had taken his plate so she apologized on his behalf and made my boyfriend a new calamari plate which had even more calamari on it! Talk about top notch service! We both told her she didn't need to do that but she insisted. As a main, I had the pistachio crusted rack of lamb with potatoes, caramelized onions, carrots and other season vegetables. I love lamb and I was not disappointed. My boyfriend had the 8 oz striploin "carpet bag" with garlic mashed potatoes, mushroom in a wine reduction. It was delicious! Lucky for me he was so full from the calamari that I was able to finish his plate. If I had to pick one of the 2 mains, I would pick the striploin. For dessert we had the chocolate soufflé with vanilla ice cream. I took a bite because I was full and I don't normally eat dessert but it was good. I would definitely come back and I highly recommend!

Very delicious place. First time tried lunch time. They offer Table de Hôte for only $35 per person with paired wine for extra $15~20. The ambiance and service are really nice. Good place for a business lunch.

40 Westt Steakhouse - Crap customer service and Gift card scam. I was given Gift cards for 40 Westt Steakhouse several years ago. Over the years, I used a few of the gift cards without any issues. Two weeks ago, we ordered takeout for a special occasion and when my wife went to pick up the order, my two gift cards were refused AND even confiscated. The manager(?) told her there was some fraud a few years back and the cards were no longer valid. He "graciously" offered 4 pieces of cake in return for $100 worth of gift cards... The gift cards are clearly from 40 Westt and are signed by a (former) manager, have unique serial numbers and have no expiry date. I still have 2 more $50 gift cards and have tried to contact the manager several times to resolve this problem. So far, I have not received any response from anyone at 40 Westt. I find this disgusting! For an establishment that would have you believe they are all about great customer service and class, I don't find this very classy. I would advise you to take your business elsewhere.

The best fillet mignon I have ever been served, and the blue cheese added such an element of depth. Absolutely incredible.

It was the ultimate experience to dine at 40 Westt, and really made my trip to Montreal more phenomenal than I could have imagined.

The service is very bad . This is a Restrauant to show off , not for food or service . 7 of us spent over $2000 there . 18% tip build into bill . Does not matter what service you get . You need to pay . The wine we ordered is over $600. But the bottle smell not right upon tasting . You know what , waiter does not care , we still got bill . Never go there again .

Interior of the building was really nice. There are two sides for seats. One is calmer than the other. There's also live Jazz bands too. Regarding the food, the Ahi Tuna is a must along with the Orange zest creme brulee!

Disappointing. I really wanted to enjoy it more since it's a beautiful restaurant (high ceilings, art, etc), but in the end everything was pretty mediocre. I went with my sister, father, brother, and brother in law for my sister's birthday. For an appetizer we ordered some Lobster Bisque. Last time my BIL was there the waitress said not to order it. I was suspicious again because they gave about 2x the amount of bisque I've ever seen anyone get, and they both said it wasn't great. My ground beef sausages were dry and bland. My lobster came out with amazing presentation and was cracked in such a way as to make it very easy to rip out the huge pieces of lobster meat, however, I could barely finish it because it had been overcooked and was chewie. Not wanting to send it back I just ate it. Overall for a meal that cost over $700 I'd say I was pretty disappointed. Service was "ok" but not above average.

If you want to splurge a little and experience a fantastic meal, 40 Westt is the place to go! First of all, this place is GORGEOUS! It's absolutely enormous and you keep walking and walking to your seat.... high ceilings. Pure class. Ambiance is dope. The menu has a lot of options, so... if you're a meat lover (and thus understandably a normal functional person) you'll be treated to the nines. The menu is $$$$+. A cut of steak is easily $60 and comes with no thrills. My NY strip steak, some fries, an amaretto sour and a lava cake was $100.... and easily worth it! The NY steak was prepped to perfection. Thick juice cut. Medium rare and was an experience to be cherished at every bite. The fries and aioli sauce was a great side. While I waited for the meat to be prepped I was presented with a great amaretto sour. There was a mishap at first as I was served with an old fashioned but when the waitress noticed my face she quickly inquired and corrected the issue. I was allowed to keep the old fashioned, complementary of course. Did I mention our waitress Penelope was great? Staff are great here. Helpful and attentive. I'm quite fond of Lava Cake and it was d-lish. Came with some vanilla ice cream and I went to school with my creative hot and cold sampling. What a meal to remember! Legit steakhouse. Why am I salivating? Pop pop.... guess who'll be back again?!

Great service, ambiance and food. You can't come and not get steak since it's the staple, but we also added the lobster pasta. The steak was perfectly cooked as I ordered it. The lobster pasta, although delicious, was a bit misleading since it was a combination of lobster-shrimp. I'm allergic to shrimp so my cousin ended up eating it and I had her steam. The chocolate soufflé was the best dessert, must order.

overpriced for what it is . Went with a group and with teenagers. The waiter refused to let teens order from regular menu. Ended up paying 100$ for pasta with butter. So not impressed. I will never go back to this rip off place.

Legit steakhouse. Fine dining at its best right here! The interior is absolutely stunning... High ceilings, chandeliers, open kitchen...Prepare to be blown away! Came for a business dinner and we started with the raw seafood tower consisting of oysters, shrimp, lobster tails/claws and crab claws. It was all so incredibly fresh! At a place like this, you NEED to order a steak. That's what they're known for! I ordered the 8 oz. filet mignon with melted brie and it was phenomenal - excellent cut, nice and tender, cooked perfectly, with the perfect compliment of the melted Brie on top. Whether you order the side of garlic mashed potatoes, French fries with the aioli sauce, or garlic spinach, neither will disappoint. Each side was amazingly delicious! Although they did have a complimentary wine list to pair with your steak, I would've like to see a speciality cocktail menu. That's about the only change I'd make to this fine establishment!

High class restaurant with high quality food! The best deal in the menu is the 40 for $40 you'll get a salad, steak and dessert. The salad was good, the steak was great (although small about a 6oz) but the dessert was the best! The chocolate soufflé is one of the best I have ever had. Again a small portion but packed with big flavor! Soooo creamy and fluffy. Every. Single. Bite.

I don't understand how a steak restaurant can't cook steak properly. Medium rare showed up at the table as medium well. The cowboy cut is a significant piece of meat to screw up for the lunch rush. It's too bad because it was well seared and the flavour was quite good. I did make a point to express my dissatisfaction and a replacement piece of meat was offered which was an expected gesture. Was it as good as the original? No. But at least it was cooked as requested. We ordered a dozen oysters. Malpeques aren't a premium oyster but cost $51 for a dozen. That's just really overpriced. They weren't even well-shucked. Some had pieces of broken shell in them. They were also completely inconsistent in size. As for the other items we tried: spinach was pretty average and the fries were probably the worst I've had in awhile. We requested a pasta for a child and it was fine. Nothing fancy. Surprisingly, an order of crab was the best part even though some pieces were definitely better tasting than the others. I know for a fact there was an event happening in the back section of the restaurant. Could this have been a reason why the food wasn't up to snuff? Possibly. It seemed like this place is doing well with the business lunch crowd. Expense accounts must be the norm. Given the four star rating on Yelp, I was actually quite excited to try this place but I wasn't impressed at all. Bottom line: inconsistent food, service, and prices. I would not return and would not recommend.

This is a very elegant restaurant with an open kitchen concept. Ideal for a special occasion, or a business meeting. We booked an early reservation and had a full booth to ourselves for two. We had the seafood platter, a side iceberg salad with blue cheese dressing. My partner had the Porterhouse steak and I had the Prime rib which came with a side of potato of your choice. Ocean small sampler: The tray comes with an array of sauces for the seafood. The oysters were extremely fresh, the shrimps were huge and meaty. However the lobster claws were on the smaller side. Overall, the freshness were on point. Iceberg salad: Being a fan of blue cheese, I still felt the sauce was a bit too rich. Needs more cherry tomatoes to balance the richness of the dressing. Steaks: The porterhouse had a nice char and was well seasoned. The middle part is tender and almost just melts in your mouth. Wow... just wow. The prime ribs...How can I say this? It's freaking awesome. It's the best I've had. You can't compare the quality anywhere else in Montreal. Dessert: We didn't have room for dessert but our server still brought the dessert display to show us for next time. I think a dessert MENU would be just fine. No need for to pull a dessert cart with saran wraps around. It's pricey but so worth it for the quality, experience and ambiance! Thank you, we'll come back.

Had my office department Christmas party at 40 Westt. I ordered the Tartatin as an appetizer and it was really tasty especially the choice of goat cheese and the way the sun-dried were marinated. I ordered the veal as my main dish and the veal was really evenly cooked and not dry like that of a colleague the accompanying potato crepes were devine. Then I had the chocolate soufflé for desert which was decadent. All in all the food was superb.

Boy did I luck out! I had just flown in with my girlfriend from Las Vegas, and my uncle left a company party at 40 Westt to come pick me up. When he asked if we were hungry, he threw us in the car and brought us back to meet his coworkers. We were just in time to order our meals, and what followed was a wonderful four course meal. First we each had an appetizer... mine was some sort of seafood plate including shrimp, octopus, and calamari. My girlfriend's plate was tuna tar tar. Next up was an insalata caprese salad, which was one of the best I've ever had. The main course was next, in which we both enjoyed a nice big filet mignon. The sides were to share for the table, and we sampled the mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach. The french fries were outstanding, though, but I think that's just cuz fries are good EVERYWHERE in Montreal. After that, we found room for the dessert trio they put in front of us, which had a lemon cake (good), some ice cream (better), and some sort of chocolate lava cake (best, delicious, and any other positive adjectives you can think of). Throughout our meal we enjoyed a jazz band that did decent covers of current songs, too. Atmosphere was good, service was good, and food was outstanding. Here's to more good meals while visiting Montreal...

What a great experience. Great service, great food, great ambiance. I have been here a few times in the past, but it seems to be getting better with time. I believe they have figured out what premium dining is all about. Was here for a work dinner and all where pleased. The winning plate was the cowboy steak which was encouraged by the waiter. He nailed it. Delicious when ordered medium rare. I recommend this to everyone to try. If you are staying on this side of town, it is worth the trip. Get the apple crisp! The vanilla bean ice cream rocked. It!

Poor performance...very poor. Started with the hostess asking me whom I was waiting for and who was that person to me...heuuu... We took numerous entrees. Abort the octopus, rubbery, did not smell right. Scallops not as advertised on the menu, tiny at best and uninspired drowned in a reduction of God knows what. Tuna tartare saved the day. Beef spring rolls with very little beef in them. Sausisse Maison Grillés (we did not even finish them), foie gras pêche caramélisée & tuna was very good. Other entrees we took also average. Soufflé au chocolat, average...price not so average. Better deal somewhere else.

40 W is just fine. However, they need something special to stand out. They have good steak and an oyster bar, but that is de rigeur. They need something more for 4*!

One of my family's favourite lunch places to go to. The inside of the restaurant is very spacious with very high ceilings. Their set menus for lunch includes an appetizer, a main course, and a dessert with coffee or tea. For appetizer, I usually like to get the wedge lettuce salad with blue cheese sauce. Their ahi tuna or filet mignon are good options for mains. And the chocolate soufflé with ice cream is a must for dessert!

Oh what a dinner i still taste the ribeye i ordered . First the place is huge we opted for the live music section. Very nice ambiance and decor. Our waiter made a big difference on how much we enjoyed pur meal and evening. Very welcoming, explained the evening special and recommended us some appetizers. First we started with some drinks and some appetizers. We took the grilled octopus, nicely cooked with a very good texture. Than we had the onion soup. Nice taste with a yummy beer based broth. I opted for the 16oz ribeye and my wife the 8oz fillet mignon. The waiter suggested the mashed potatoes and the spinach, we weren't wowed with both, but nice side dishes for our very delicious cuts of fine meats. The ribeye was juicy, tender , cooked medium rare as i ordered. Simple cracked peppers on top no special sauce , but it made our tasting buds asking for more. The fillet was tender as a piece of butter . You taste the quality of a prime aged meat. We finished the evening with a nice piece of chocolate cake complementary of the house for my birthday. Nice touch fir a perfect service . I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place .

Was invited to a company sponsored dinner at the 40W and enjoyed the 5 star experience. Service is excellent, ambiance is great and food was very good. Mind you, this was an all expenses paid dinner and they ordered med to high end dishes for everyone and I'm sure it wasn't a small tab at the end. Entrées were great and the presentation and plating is very well done. The staff are very friendly and professional. Desserts were great too. Nice venue and decor as well.

A good place to celebrate special occasions. Very classy steakhouse with a price tag that goes along with it. Good alternative to queue de cheval if you don't want to go all the way downtown

Really nice ambiance. Comfy seating. Plenty of free parking. Nice designated bar area. Not many options for a plant based eater however, they accommodate whenever possible. The service is not always consistent but good nevertheless. Good for business lunches and dinners.

We went here for a lunch with the company I used to work for. I heard great things about it and they delivered! Started off with a light dish, cucumber cut to look like spaghetti with other seasonal produce lightly dressed with a Parmesan crisp on it. I had the duck and it was delicious, someone on the table had a veal lover but complained it was too over cooked. The waiter rectify the situation brought another one and a bottle of Porto on the house.. Great service! The desert were different variation, I recall a chocolate soufflé I could be wrong though. Anyway give this place a try. It can get expensive but it's worth it.

Visiting in town, and reading up on local Montreal West Island top restaurants to go to we found 40 Westt (from review sites such as this), and figured this restaurant would be great for dinner and drinks. We thought it would be good to order Caesars with oysters, worst idea... had to return and redo drinks as they tasted awful, next ones were no better. The Oysters were not shucked properly, all were stuck to the shells and dry. The lobster bisque had clumps of soup from what seemed to be old thick soup from the of the pot edge stirred in ... The worst restaurant food experience I've ever had, absolutely everything was poor quality. The waiter graciously didn't charge for the replaced Caesars, however to our surprise the complete bill was charged even after we've pointed out the issues with quality and had left plates untouched. I suggest employee training on customer retention and basic ethical actions, for example: removing items off a bill especially if it was a clear complaint about the food with it left uneaten. Perhaps this was related to not ordering steak, the specialty of the restaurant on the menu. The overall experience was not what we had imagined for a higher end restaurant, we did not expect this from a higher end restaurant in combination with the price point.
