Worst Mac&Cheese ever.
Smoked meat for this restaurant means normal mortadella and cheese, means a normal bechamel with zero cheese.
With this combination, sweet pickles don't match.

Amazing food with outstanding service. Rarely does one experience this quality.of.food and service at an airport, but L'Auberge Saint-Gabriel manages it with style!

The service was the very best part of this restaurant, we had just the sweetest and most attentive waiter. But the food was mediocre, chips were good and the pasta was good, but the soup was unseasoned, it lacked flavour and there was still dirt in the bok choy. Overall it was overpriced, especially with the tipping system, but alright for a short transit.

Awful experience - bad food and service. We tipped the waiter 10% because of this and the waiter ran us down saying it was too low (and that HE was getting ripped off?). The waiter made us buy a bottle of water in order for us to give a larger tip!?!?

INSANE! Atrocious service. (Dinner service on July 19, 2025).

Terrible. Don't go there. One of the worst service I've had. The lady that was our waitress was nice at first, but as soon as she knew we will not order multiple plates and drinks she became super dry and rude with us. She obviously only faked being nice until she knew she'll not get a lot of tips from our table. Ridiculous. I felt judged and very uncomfortable. Will never go there again and will tell everyone traveling to avoid this place at all cost.The food I ordered was very disappointing too.

READ BEFORE EATING
Long wait for seating, tables were available but slow service. Overpriced for portion and quality of food.

One person from our group wanted to order off the kids menu as they could not eat much without feeling sick. The staff informed us we could not order from the kids menu, as they have already gotten in trouble from their manager.
There was no alternative to the dish for an adult to order, which was not accommodating to our group’s dietary preference.
This is clearly a stunt to upsell us into buying their higher priced dishes. Kids menu dishes are priced lower due to lower portions.

Not many food establishments around, unfortunately this place will continue to gouge people transferring through.

The server was very kind and professional throughout. Food was not as bad as some other reviews mentioned but again not worth the price point.

Got the cauliflower steak. It was pretty good! Held me over until my flight

If you don’t drink alcohol, you are not welcome here. I ordered a San Pellegrino and sat at the bar, which was half-empty. The bartender had no issue with this. A blond waitress with a long braid came out of nowhere and rudely said I could not sit at the bar unless I ordered alcohol. Shockingly rude, will never come back.

Food not worthy of the brand.

L'Auberge Saint-Gabriel initially offered a promising atmosphere when I arrived — the space felt elegant and inviting, and the wait time for food was reasonable. I ordered the Onglet de bœuf with house butter, green beans, fries, and a glass of wine.

While the presentation was good, the portion size was noticeably small for the price point. I would recommend asking your server for more details about portion sizes before placing an order. The service itself was basic — professional but unmemorable, lacking the warmth or attentiveness that you’d .expect from a venue of this reputation.

Unfortunately, midway through my meal, an internal disagreement broke out among the staff and the manager. Being seated near the entrance, I witnessed the situation unfold, with staff becoming visibly distracted and leaving customers unattended at their tables and at the door. It came across as very unprofessional and disorganized, which really took away from the dining experience.

As for the food itself, the steak was underwhelming. It lacked seasoning and was quite dry, suggesting it had been sitting under a heat lamp too long before being served. Overall, it did not feel worth my time or money.
