Dining at this restaurant is always a pleasure. I selected this place to introduce my friends to one of Montreal's hidden gems, and once again, it exceeded all expectations. Despite the heavy rain outside, the staff remained kind, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit.

We started our evening with cocktails and wine in the central lounge, which offered a cozy, intimate setting. Although we arrived without a reservation, one of the managers accommodated us, providing a table in a particularly special spot near the vertical garden. The seating was comfortable, and the lighting was just right, enhancing the overall ambiance.

Our waitress was friendly and attentive from the moment we sat down. The restaurant’s atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between modern and elegant, making it suitable for any occasion. The music played at a perfect volume, allowing for easy conversation.

As always, the food was outstanding. Every dish was crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the variety of desserts was the perfect conclusion to our meal. The service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure we had an exceptional experience.

I will definitely be returning and highly recommend the Steak Bavette, Salmon Tartare, the tropical cocktail, and of course, the desserts.

Our group of girls came here to celebrate a birthday and this place did not disappoint in any aspect. The atmosphere was great from decor to music volume. The food was very good, and all the drinks were delicious as well. As for the service, a very special thank you to our waiter Alec for taking care of our large group throughout the night. He did an amazing job and we were very happy with the service. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a special occasion!

We had our engagement dinner here, and the team was so efficient and adaptable to our needs. Sasha and Catherine were the managers I corresponded with, they had everything ready for the night. Hossein and Emma were our lead servers and they helped organize every detail, ensured the night ran smoothly. They even moved the champagne tower spot for me! The private room fits 30+ people, was wheelchair accessible and the dinner was delicious. The team was lovely, we had the best time

It’s located in unique and vibrant Old Montreal. They offer dry-aged meats. The 45 days aged rib steak was awesome, rich flavor, tender and marbled. We were there at 9:30pm, didn’t want to eat two much, but we didn’t think the 20oz rib steak was enough for three of us lol, so delicious. The goat cheese was amazing, rich, smooth and creamy. The flank steak was so so, a bit dry.

On a beautiful summer day in Montreal, we enjoyed the outdoor terrace at Maggie Oakes. The food was really delicious and I would rate the Ceasar salad one of the best I ever had. It’s always busy, so try to arrive earlier. You can go inside to cool down and see the beautiful hotel.

We stopped here for a coffee on the terrace in the sun, but then had a very nice breakfast.

The staff were very friendly and the food was very good. So why only 4 stars?

When we arrived at about 10.45, we asked if we could have coffee, and the waiter hesitated before saying yes and then giving us a lunch menu each. It was only when we looked at other tables we saw that they had a smaller menu. So we asked what they were, and we were told they were breakfast menus. We then asked if breakfast was still available and were told "yes".

So, we ordered from the smaller menu and had a lovely breakfast

Shoutout to Pascal, probably the best server we had in this trip. Gave us lots of time, no pressure 😉 asked us for our food preference, patiently listing the tea selection. Always had the customer experience in mind. Food was good, just look at how the eggs were done. Kitchen was faster than the drinks bar for some reason, but overall, glad we visited this restaurant

Exceptional Service and Fresh Food at Maggie Oakes!

This was our second visit to Maggie Oakes (426 Pl. Jacques-Cartier, Montréal), and it happened to be on our anniversary! We didn't make a reservation, but the staff were accommodating and welcoming.

The food was incredibly fresh and delicious! The service was attentive, prompt, and went above and beyond. One memorable moment that stood out was when we accidentally dropped a spoon, and a staff member (unfortunately, I didn't catch his name) quickly replaced it for us from a distance. What impressed us even more was that he said, "I heard you from afar and knew you'd need a new one!" This small gesture speaks volumes about the exceptional service at Maggie Oakes. The staff's attention to detail and anticipation of our needs made us feel truly valued.

I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone! The combination of fresh food and outstanding service makes it a must-visit destination. We'll definitely be back!
