Fodor's Review:

The motto says it all: "There is absolutely nothing trendy about Moishe's." And that would include the patrons, most of whom look like they would be more comfortable wearing fedoras. But if you're looking for a thick, marbled steak, perfectly grilled—preceded perhaps by a slug of premium single-malt Scotch—this is the place to come. The members of the Lighter family, who have been operating Moishe's since 1938, offer other dishes, such as lamb and fish, but people come for the beef, which the family ages in its own lockers.

Moishe's is the place for steaks, best in Montreal without a doubt. The decor isn't great, one very large room which hasn't changed for decades. But those who know don't go there for the atmosphere, they go for the best steaks around. Service is pretty good and attentive.

well, the service is bad and the food is worse, as the only thing special about their "special chicken" is that it's burned on the outside, pink inside. Not sure why people go here except out of habit. Slaw side dish nice and sweet with balsamic vinegar and nice pickles.
