On Moishes restaurant Montreal Chef Deck says (in a drawn out singing voice):
Oy Moishe, ya know my grandfather used to play poker with you and the boys in the good old days. He would walk 45 miles, trenching through 10 feet of snow to get a steak for only five cents (what a deal). Now things have changed a little, so good luck having a meal at Moishes for less that $60 a person. I would never want to trash you because I have too many fond memories but for the price, and my personal taste, you are not somewhere I frequent. What I do love is your filet mignon shish kabob, your sesame crusted tuna, and all the fixings to fill you up before your meal (and ya I guess you kind of invented in Montreal the coveted Monte Carlo potato). Everything else is just good , always of fine quality (though usually undercooked), and you can count on perfect service 100% of the time.
Food: Nostalgic/10
Running in to every single person who used to know your grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, 25th cousins thrice removed: a little unnerving when trying to eat your meal/10

L’Entrecôte Saint-Jean, Montreal steak frite restaurant
For me Moishes, although having a reputation of one of the top steak houses in the city, lost some shine when their pickles and coleslaw hit the shelves of Metro, Provigo and Costco. Although I applaud their business acumen and respect their drive for profitability, I feel that a high end restaurant with such a great reputation should stick to being high end and not allow the mass market take away from its glamour. I doubt we will be seeing Queue de Cheval Gerkins or onion jam on shelves at the local Super C.
