Review from Gaurav P.
9/16/2011
So, my client in Montreal decided to take a New Yorker to a place called "Madison's NY Bar & Grill". I knew from the beginning that this wasn't going to be a 5 Yelp experience, and it wasn't. I'll keep this one brief:
Restaurant:
+ & - It's a chain, I loathe chain restaurants but it was large, clean and the staff was friendly.
Service:
+ We had a really quirky waiter whom at first, confused us if he was a man or a woman. His wack-a-doodle hairstyle, his feminine ways of speaking and conducting business had us quite confused...however upon further visual inspection of his chest area, led us to believe he was a male. With that said, he was still a fairly efficient waiter handling our party of 10
Food:
- I stuck with a grilled chicken salad as everything else on the menu seemed unappealing to this New Yorker. It's not any different than any other chain restaurant and the calorie counts on the dishes they're serving are quite high
Overall, this seems to be a very popular spot for the local professionals and gets quite busy during the lunch hour but I don't think it's worth a re-visit upon my next trip to the beautiful city of Montreal.

I have been at three Madisons and this one is definitely a couple of levels below the other two. Although it has nice decor and a huge terrace, the food leaves a lot to be desired. My friend always orders the chicken strips and found the one here to be soggy and tasteless. I have had the aihi tuna at all three locations and this one was definitely sub par. To top it off, the two times I went, we got space cadets for waitresses. Pleasant, but not exactly knowing what they should be doing.

I've had some really good meals here in Montreal, but not at Madison's. It was a long day in the office, so really wasn't in the mood for a steak and I love red meat. Tired, away from home I guess I just wanted something comforting and not too heavy since it was already after 8 pm.
I ordered a NYC baked potato - sour cream, garlic, bacon and avocado (still can't figure out what those toppings have to do with New York City) and a side salad with a ginger lime dressing. My co worker had a club sandwich and some spinach dip with chips. The food arrived in short order - not even 1/2 the tables were seated so it should have come out of the kitchen fast.
The potato had been in hot hold for a bit too long as the inside had begun to turn color a little. The taste was ok, and the toppings were sparingly adorned on top of the slightly split open potato. The salad was dressed, dressing was nice, but it was just romaine, a few scattered julienned carrots and a couple pieces of purple cabbage. Nothing special, just meh.
Here is the shining star of this restaurant...our waiter! He was attentive, oh so happy to have us in his section, not offended that we were not ordering the 16 oz T-bone and said "let me just read the specials off to you in case you change your mind." Hello....he was nothing short of stellar!
There are several Madison's around Montreal...so I don't know if this particular location was having an off night, or the quality of the food just sucks overall.
