As a family from Vancouver BC vacationing in Montreal, we were excited to make the trek from our hotel in Old Montreal to Gordon Ramsays restaurant. This was a much anticipated dining experience as we have watched many episodes of Gordon Ramsays Kitchen Nightmare and wanted to see what he's done to an already established BBQ chicken restaurant.\n\nThe building looks beautiful, very upscale from the outside. The interior is sophisticated but not stuffy. It's not white linen tablecloth with most of the diners seated in booths. \n\nThe chicken was nicely prepared to a juicy, savoury, golden brown. The dinners were accompanied by great sides and choice of sauces. Don't forget to enjoy a pickle while you wait for your food. \n\nThe service is a little to be desired. Not very attentative. The waiter was just an order taker who showed no compassion for the food or the restaurant. The food came slow and there was little follow up to service our needs for more drinks or desserts. As a clean living West coaster we also found it a little odd that our kids were offered Popeye candy cigarettes as treats.\n\nOverall, the food was good but Gordon has to go in and straighten out the management and staff.
