Me and my girlfriend were up for a Bruins vs. Habs game weekend, and decided on this location for dinner the first night.
I'm happy to say that it didn't disappoint. When we arrived, around 6pm, the hostess told us that there would be about a half-hour wait. So we put our name in and grabbed a couple seats at the bar. We got a round of drinks and had a very nice conversation with a couple that was in town from Quebec City. About 20mins later we were informed that our table was ready. I always like a place that, not only can give you an accurate wait time, but even get to you quicker then they quoted.
Normally when at Baton Rouge I get the ribs, but this night I really didn't feel like eating with my hands. So I went with the 8oz Filet Mignon with a side of garlic mashed potatoes with chopped smokehouse bacon. It was cooked exactly how I wanted it and the potatoes were much more flavorful then I had expected. I usually find sides at chain restaurants to be an afterthought, and treated as such. But these were a very pleasant surprise. My girlfriend got the Louisiana BBQ Chicken with a baked potato for her side. Although I can't personally comment on the tastes, she was overall very pleased with the meal, and made a few comments about wanting to come back next time we're up in Montréal.
The decor was very nice. The table we had felt intimate, despite being around booths of 5-6 people. Our server was friendly and helpful, especially when it came to explaining the specials, different meals, and helping my girlfriend pick out her wine.Listed in: Montréal

So I am a fan of Baton Rouge, but really, it's pretty generic. A little overpriced for what it is, but it is consistent. It's a good place to go with a big group of people, but honestly for the price you are better off going to a smaller steakhouse in the plateau that has a little more charm. I still give it 4 stars because it really is not bad, it's just kinda standard.

Baton Rouge has the best ribs ever! These mouth watering ribs fall off the bone. They are cooked over night, and basted with the sauce. You will never forget ribs like this. The Louisiana BBQ Chicken is another favourite if you are not in the mood for ribs.
Has an appetizer the homemade spinach dip is amazing and can be a meal, so try not to overdose on it no matter how addicting it is! -

RIBS RIBS RIBS!!! Apparently this is the place to go for ribs. I'll have to give it to them, it was juicy and falling off the bone. But it wasn't flavorful or saucy enough. We had to ask the waiter to bring more sauce, but by the time he got it for us we were almost half way done.
I got the porterhouse Pittsburgh style, which was quite delicious. The sides are huge. I opted out of the butter and garlic, so got the bowl of sauteed mushrooms on the side to top my steak. I had enough to share with my table of 11. Very reasonably priced and it was super crowded on a Sunday night. Our waiter was pretty good, he was pretty busy himself attending to all of us.
I would come back for a nice, meaty meal with a group of friends. -

I'm in Montreal for a meeting tomorrow and didn't feel like going too far from my hotel for supper. It's been a while since I've been to a Baton Rouge.
I ordered a glass of white wine and the Bâton Rouge Chicken Tenders Platter (signature chicken tenders made fresh to order, hand-battered and fried to golden perfection. Served with BBQ and original Dijonnaise sauces for dipping) with garlic mashed potatoes. It was an insane amount of food (lots of chicken but lots of chickenless batter) and I couldn't eat it all ... but it was good.
My only complaint is that I asked for dijonaise sauce and my server brought me BBQ.
I was surprised that the place was packed the restaurant was on a Sunday night! -

Working at the Desjardins Complexe, this is one of the 4-5 restaurants we can go without having to go outside (a great plus for our long winter months). The food is good and I normally take their ribs or their chicken salad, their salmon or their burgers. Be careful, what the server proposes as 'menu du jour' is almost twice as expensive as the proposed lunch fares. They'll tell you, you'll have an appetizer and coffee, but to my opinion it's not worth it. Anyway, their portions are of American size, so you won't need anything else..
A point they should improve: even though we eat there once a week, if we go there for a drink at 5PM, you have no more consideration than the tourist that will never come back: have one of your lunch manager indicate to your girl at the reception the difference between a regular and a tourist..

I'm guessing that given the location of this particular chain restaurant & the previous reviews, that this branch is somewhat of tourist trap. Well we dined here as tourists during Jazz Fest & have to admit we had a very good experience! My cheeseburger was absolutely delicious as was my side of sauteed mushrooms. The one sour note was that yes the prices are exorbitant for what you get. Sure, we had an excellent meal but I'm guessing most of the waiter-service establishments in this area know that they've got the market covered for people who don't want fast food, & realize they can charge these prices, because people like us will pay 'em. And we did! But overall, we were very satisfied with our dinner here.

An average place to eat with an above-average price tag. Every now and then I get in the mood for ribs and this place never really leaves me satisfied. This branch is WAY better than the one on de la Montagne in terms of service. Our waiter was really nice and checked up on us. Ribs were not that great, coke was majorly watered down (i asked the waiter to get me a new one but it was the same deal 2nd time around).

Excellent service and very good food. The best food we've had in Montreal. We ate dinner on 12/23/10 and lunch on 12/24/10. I had BBQ pork ribs for dinner and Chicken Tenders for lunch.

Food was ok. Maybe average to slightly above average depending on the item. But the price seemed a little steep. It could be that I'm still not totally used to the higher price of food in Montreal compared to the US, but still, it seemed a little too much for the quality. I went there because someone else picked the restaurant, but I'd probably try to avoid this place in the future.

In one word: inedible. I generally avoid chain restaurants that feel the need to advertise on television. I didn't want to go but we were meeting some people in the area who were at the Jazz Fest. Unfortunately, this area is largely a black hole for decent places to eat unless you want to venture down to Chinatown. Because of its convenient location overlooking Place Des Arts, it draws a lot of the tourist/festival crowd and I can only imagine that this is the only way it can stay in business (but that doesn't explain why Baton Rouge is a fairly successful Quebec chain). I've never had worse "cajun" food (fake cajun) from the appetizer nachos that came accompanied with a vile looking and even worse tasting garlic dip to the rubbery ribs, overcooked steaks, dripping-with-grease sandwiches, and soggy french fries. Alas, the food is so bad, it made me regret passing by the St. Hubert chicken place right down the street (which is bad but not THAT bad). The sad thing is: for the same price you can actually eat at a decent restaurant.
