Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at Vargas Restaurant in Montreal, a gem that should be on every food lover's must-visit list. From the warm and welcoming ambiance to the attentive service and exquisite dishes, my experience at Vargas was nothing short of exceptional.
Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted by the delightful aroma of sizzling steaks and the soft, ambient lighting that created a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The elegant, yet understated decor added to the overall charm, making it the perfect setting for a memorable evening.
My server, Pascal, was the epitome of professionalism and courtesy. From the moment I was seated, he made sure that I was well taken care of, making excellent recommendations and ensuring that I had everything I needed for a perfect dining experience.
The main event of the evening was the 9 oz Eye of the Rib, cooked to perfection. The steak was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavors that danced on my palate. The accompanying plain mashed potatoes were creamy and smooth, providing the perfect balance to the rich and savory flavors of the steak.
To complement my meal, I enjoyed a glass of the 6 oz Mondavi Woodbridge Merlot wine. This beautifully balanced wine had a delightful bouquet of dark berries, plums, and subtle hints of oak. Its smooth and velvety texture paired harmoniously with the steak, elevating the flavors of the dish even further.
To my surprise, I also discovered a new culinary delight at Vargas: the sushi sandwich. This inventive dish featured fresh, melt-in-your-mouth sushi served in a delicate sandwich format. It was an unexpected and delightful fusion of flavors that added a refreshing touch to the meal.
My visit to Vargas Restaurant in Montreal was one that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience. From the exceptional service provided by Pascal to the mouthwatering dishes and the cozy ambiance, Vargas has certainly earned its place among the top dining destinations...
Read moreWe came to this steakhouse when we visited Montreal over the Patriots' Day long-weekend. It wasn't too far from the hotel we stayed at, so we thought we'd give it a try.
It was not busy at all when we got there, & our server said that there were only 3 of them working that night because it wasn't busy. However, as the night went on, more patrons came.
We got there at around 8PM & our server took our order at 8:15PM. We ordered 5 items: Poseidon's Tower (which had half lobster tails, shrimps, oysters, marinated octopus, cherry stone clams and salmon gravlax) PRIME RIB AU JUS | VARGAS CUT 12oz 18oz BONE-IN RIB EYE SAUTÉED MUSHROOMS KUNG FU FRIES (fries topped with Gojujang mayo, green shallots, sesame, Sriracha)
We placed all items together. Our server assured us that he'd gauge the timing so that our steaks will come out after we finish our starter. The Poseidon's Tower came out about 30 minutes after. The clams were a bit chewy, but the rest of the seafood was good.
What made us upset is the fact that we had waited a total of 1.5 hours from when we placed our order, for the rest of our food to us. The other guests (group of 3) that sat beside us who got their after us GOT their food BEFORE we did! Another table close to us started getting their foods before we did too. I had to go talk to the server to ask about our main!! He didn't even give us any updates as to how much longer it'd take until I went to ask him. It was almost 9:45PM when we got our main. It seems they were not attentive to their guests & they just didn't communicate with the kitchen staff. We are aware of the other reviews about how slow they can get, but didn't realize it'd actually take that long to get our food. Had we known it'd be that slow, we would have gone elsewhere. Disappointed was an understatement to describe our experience here. We will not be back and highly do not...
