Great steakhouse. The Caesar salad was crisp, with the perfect tang and just the right amount of Parmesan in the dressing. The calamari, foie gras, lamb shank, and beef tartare were all delicious. The others in my party ordered steaks and said they were cooked perfectly, accompanied by textbook-classic sauces.

What more can I say other than this was the best fish I’ve had in a very long time. Everything was perfect, delicious, and incredibly tasty. The service was attentive, fast, and courteous. A perfect score — I will definitely be coming back.
Perfect date night during Grand Prix weekend!
Sat at the bar tonight had service from Chris I would give it 10 out of 10 between price service and taste everything was perfect
Everything was 10/10! Definitely a recommendable place
An amazing restaurant, I bring my customers here regularly, the food is outstanding and the service is marvelous
Always the best of times at Vargas!
I’m a regular customer here and the steaks never disappoint. The rib cap is absolutely perfect; I always order it medium rare. The drinks honestly aren’t great, so we usually just stick to water 😂 but the steak alone keeps us coming back. I just wish the steaks came with sides as well!
Great atmosphere and delicious food!!
Decent downtown steakhouse. Could use some additional side options. Our table probably would have ordered additional plates if offered. Fries were ok and presented in a little cup but nothing out of the ordinary. All the meats were cooked/seasoned to our liking. Staff was excellent. Kept our cocktails/wine flowing.
Dining at Vargas Steakhouse & Sushi Restaurant offers a unique blend of upscale steakhouse dining with a modern, stylish twist. Located in downtown Montreal, the ambiance feels sleek and vibrant, making it a great spot for both business dinners and nights out. The steak was definitely the star of the evening. Cooked exactly as requested, it came out tender, juicy, and full of rich flavor. You can immediately tell the quality of the meat is top-tier, and the preparation is done with precision. Each bite had that perfect balance of char on the outside and a melt-in-your-mouth texture inside. What sets Vargas apart is the option to mix things up with sushi alongside your steak. It’s not something you see at every steakhouse, and it adds a fun, elevated touch to the experience. The sushi was fresh and well-prepared, making it more than just an afterthought on the menu. Service was professional and attentive, helping create a smooth and enjoyable dining experience from start to finish. Overall, Vargas is a great choice if you’re looking for a high-end steak with a bit of variety, all in a lively Montreal setting.
Steak was delicious and cooked perfectly Nice place 👍
Indeed a hidden gem!! My wife and I walked in with no reservations on a Friday night and we were treated like royalty. Prompt and polite service, excellent drinks, excellent food, excellent atmosphere, and fantastic location (right by central station). This time we came for the sushi but they have an assortment of dry aged steaks/cuts of meat that will definitely be a must try next time - imo reasonable prices for the experience. Give it a try, you won't regret it.
This is one of the best steakhouses I’ve ever tried. Everything was amazing. Benjamin was very helpful, and the service overall was excellent. The steak was perfectly cooked and the sushi was very fresh. The atmosphere was elegant and comfortable. Definitely coming back again. If you had an option to only try one restaurant in Montreal, consider this on the top of the list!
Delicious food and good service. I work nearby and I went to this place with some collegues for a business meeting. The staff greeted us and took care of all my business partners. We ordered a nice steak and had a good evening of business deals. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxed. Easy to have a conversation. The food was tasty and the service was friendly. Thank you for the hospitality.
Wonderful restaurant. Yannick and Talia are such lovely people and professionals and it felt more like a home meal with family. Recommend warmly to everybody.
Great food, service abit slow but wasnt a big deal, left a rose on each table for valentines so that was nice, servers were all friendly.
Had a great experience at Vargas! It’s a beautiful restaurant with a nice atmosphere. The drinks were good, and the tomahawk steak was also very good. Service was excellent. Yannick really created an amazing experience for us. Service 12/10.
Absolutely fantastic experience. The rib was tender and juicy, and the burger was one of the best I’ve had, well seasoned and satisfying. Great quality ingredients, excellent service, and a warm atmosphere. We’ll definitely be coming back.
Every dish tasted fresh and full of flavor. You can tell they use quality ingredients. The presentation was beautiful too. Friendly staff and quick service!”
