Unfortunately our experience at 40 Westt was terrible last night. From the steak dinners (4) being so tough we couldn't eat them to the plank salmon not fully cooked. Service was less than basic, waitress never checked or asked how things were ðuring our meal. We ordered baked potatoes which were brought on a side plate with no sides. We had to ask for butter twice. We weren't asked if we'd like butter or sour cream. I have been here a few times and never had an issue. Meals were very good and service A1. At first our waitress was very friendly explaining some of the meals and then upon ordering her persona changed noticeably because we ordered from the Table d'hote. They did offer to give us another meal/alcohol and gave us all cappuccinos. We didnt feel like waiting or drinking anymore at this point. They did remove two out of the four steak dinners from the bill. I know many people that frequent this restaurant. Unfortunately it will be a long time before we go back if ever.

I had a wonderful dining experience last night. We began with the Asian beef spring rolls and the crab cake. While the crab cake was average, the spring rolls paired with plum sauce were exceptionally flavorful. For the main course, we shared the New York strip carpet bag. The portion was generous and cooked to perfection, served on a bed of mushrooms with sides of creamy spinach and garlic mashed potatoes, both of which were excellent. To conclude the evening, we enjoyed a classic crème brûlée, followed by espresso and tea as we lingered to appreciate the warm ambiance. Overall, it was a splendid evening with excellent food and service, and I would highly recommend this establishment.

Location is very nice and very big. Entering the restaurant there are the aged meats exposed. Food is above expertations but service was very poor. We faced long waiting time and messy/delayed/wrong delivery of plates. Prices are very high and it is impossible to stay below 100 dollars each.

I attended a friend’s party at 40 Westt Steakhouse a few weeks ago and had an amazing experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a celebration. I ordered the New York strip, and it was absolutely delicious—cooked perfectly and full of flavour.
What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service. Our server, Tayler, was outstanding. She was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our group.
I don’t usually leave reviews, but this visit was memorable enough that I felt it deserved recognition. Highly recommend for a night out, a special occasion, or just a great meal with fantastic service!

We reserved restaurant side, they sat us at the bar side , we asked to be moved. I had to sit on a bench that has no lining. Guess they can’t afford to fix that bench. What a joke! Ridiculously over priced food. So pretentious and the food was absolutely nothing to remember! Waste of money. I can’t believe they have 4.5 stars. My filet mignon was burnt. The all dressed baked potato was so overcooked I could not eat it. My favourite the “chocolate soufflé “ or shall I say molten lava cake. Does the chef know what a soufflé is supposed to look like? For starters it should not be raw inside! So disappointing

The food was crazy expensive, and my steak was meh. Seriously, I had high hopes based on the atmosphere, but was disappointed. The server was lovely, but the food was not worth the price.

The vibe of this place is one of a kind. The impressive facade takes you into the grandeur of European-style architecture in the Steakhouse, which departs from commercial spaces and usual dining places. The food/drink options are fantastic as well. It's a bit pricey, but that is something you will expect for a fine dining experience.

Attended surprise dinner for a 50th wedding anniversary. 46 people Outstanding service, my filet was amazing and staff were superb!!! 5 stars no question
40 Westt is basically the place to go to on the West Island if you want 100% best food best service and beautiful surroundings. I can't get over how perfect their steaks are... Every single time and their chocolate souffle? Forget it. I'm not even a sweets person. But it's a must.

One of it not the best steakhouse in Montreal. Great quality steak, knowledgable & friendly staff, and incredible decor/atmosphere.

Nourriture excellente comme d'habitude. Toutefois, la musique était incommodante cette fois, non adaptée à la clientèle qui fréquente ce restaurant. Ce restaurant demeure toutefois un incontournable pour tous les adeptes de boeuf et de fruits de mer. La table d'hôte offre toujours un choix intéressant de plats à un prix adéquat et la carte des vins est adéquate. Nous recommandons fortement le restaurant.

Un service incroyable, mais également une nourriture de très haute qualité. La cuisson des viandes était excellente et le délai entre les plats, très bien calculé. Pour ce qui est de l'ambiance, la vue sur la cuisine ouverte est très bien. Cependant, je dirais qu'il manque un peu de chaleur humaine du côté restaurant, mais du côté BAR avec l'orchestre, les lumières, etc, c'est excellent. Selon moi, s'ils pouvaient reproduire la même ambiance du côté restaurant, ça serait excellent.
