Reviews of 529 Wellington Steakhouse (Restaurant)

Carmen Huang

It was, I think, the most expensive dinner I've ever had, but not the best one. Most of everything was good, but not exceptional. My fois gras was flavorless. Atmosphere is very nice but there were a ton of wasps on the patio. I don't think I'd go back. There's better food in this city for less.

I have been here four times now and all experiences have been superb. I enjoyed the quality information about the food we were offered by the waiter. He seemed very knowledgable and he had a great attitude. Service was excellent and my steak was cooked perfectly. Very beautiful place. Would definitely go here again, whether it be with friends or on a date.

Stephen Gilbert

Great place to eat, good food, and excellent service from Russell, cheers (COYS)

Mark Sheffield

The pickerel burger and fish and chips were delicious. Beautiful surroundings and attentive service.

Food tends to be very consistent here. This was a little while back when they had beef wellington as a feature. It was great. My friend felt it was better than the porterhouse. My favorite side is the mashed yams. The onion tower is another favorite. They had a luxe poutine that they served in the past with truffle oil. It used to come with foie gras, but I'm not sure if it still does. I like a lot of their appetizers. Sometimes I'll get a craving for their pate and go to the lounge just to satisfy it. I usually ask for their bread and not eat it with the toast points. I tend to prefer going for lunch. They have some very well priced options for those who are value minded. Service is the same, but they don't always offer the beef tour during that time. I'm sure if you ask they will do it. There are servers I prefer over others. Jeff is definitely one of them.

Preet Chawla

Great food, service and atmosphere, had a wonderful evening, only hope soon we can all sit with family and friends but most certainly will be back. Our server was outstanding.

Egor Klochkov

Steak was amazing, soup and salad also amazing. Service was great. Only thing is that side dishes were smaller than I expected.

JC

Great lunch! Wife and I had the burger special which was cooked perfectly (only time I eat pinkish burger is in-house ground) and seasoned well. Tower of Onion rings was amazing (you could actually see the carbonation bubbles still frozen in the beer batter after the frying process). Bacon on burger was perfect texture/cook. Server was helpful with drink suggestions, and prompt with water refills if a little 'stiff' in executing his duties. For lunch this is far and beyond the quality of any of the standard eateries at just a few dollars more per meal. 5 stars for the food and front staff (nice touch offering assistance to put on our coats); 4 stars for table service.

Derek Holtom

Beautiful place for people that would like a good piece of meat - especially beef! With a good selection of wine.

Wendell Martens

Singularly spectacular. Veal sauce that I've dreamt of since. Commented on by Bono from the stage of U2's last concert here. Best food in the city.

R. Turkish

Absolutely loved my peppercorn steak here! Best steak I have ever had

Ksenia Dekel

Good food and drinks, staff is very knowledgeable and friendly! They are known for steaks, but you should try out their amazing desserts, it’s to die for ????????

Bernie Wood

I love this place. The staff are above and beyond and this restaurant has an epic feeling about it. The food is always great and consistent.

Brian

Best fine dining experience I've ever had! Definitely worth going at least once

Cyana Lui

Just superb! The place was packed when we arrived. It seemed there was a wedding reception but they were quick to find a place for us. The service was great and very welcoming. We had scallops for an appetizer and they were cooked to absolute perfection. The main entrees my husband and I had were delicious. If you don't get steak, you're missing out. I had foie gras and it melted in my mouth. We chose this place to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary while also traveling for a work trip and so glad that we did!

Louie Doulias

Loved our fantastic dinner in the beautiful courtyard. It was a perfect evening to dine outdoors. Service was top notch as always. Smoked goldeye and gigantic shrimp cocktail to start. Lobster Mac & cheese, asparagus, golden beets to share along with a very large stuffed chicken breast and a beef tenderloin with two sautéed shrimp. Everything was very delicious. And of course it’s wonderful to have leftovers!! It’s the best restaurant in town, 529 Wellington always gets it right.

Mitch Albrechtsen

Best dining experience I've had in Winnipeg. Big mansion, great service, great food and the ambiance...

Ivan Labrador

Best steak of my life

C&J Calvert

Great quality food, incredible quality service. Highly recommended.

Glen Doty

Amazing service and delicious food. As well the it was quite great atmosphere.

Carlo Guan

We had our meal delivered this evening and it was still as fantastic as our visits to the restaurant. We live out near Birds Hill Park. and delivery was not a problem!! Great service and food!

Hillel Sommer

Expensive but worth it. Unless you are wealthy, it isn't somewhere you'd go more than once a year. The food was excellent and so was the service. It's worth checking out just to eat somewhere elegant if you've never gone before.

David Zhang

Amazing, high-quality food. Attentive staff. Grea th atmosphere.

Fahim Fahhad

Staff are very accommodating. The food is spectacular, hands down the best steak you can get in Winnipeg. Highly recommended!

Brendan Barry

Went for lunch with a friend the other day. We had a nice experience, service was excellent. Starter caesar salad was delicious. I had the fish and chips. The fish was nice with a wonderful scratch made tartar sauce. The chips were a disappointment. They were not freshly made and lacked salt. My friend had the Yorkshire pudding, she said it was good. Overall, a good experience.

Amendoa “Amendoa”

It's difficult to find words to adequately describe the experience at 529. Firstly, the service is incredibly fast and so dedicated that the best word for it is "personal". All you need to do is point your server in the right direction as to your taste and you'll end up with a cohesive and flawless meal from start to finish. It's easy to cook up a nice-tasting steak: but it's hard to incorporate it into a smooth meal experience. And the food itself blew me away. Again, the chef will design your meal to your preference, and the result for me was an explosive coalition of flavour that I savoured start the finish. Would highly recommend as the best restaurant in Winnipeg!

Vanessa Boughen

Excellent staff, lots of excellent food!

Kali

Our favourite restaurant. The food is always memorable, beautiful decor and impeccable service. It’s a very special place.

vitali margolin

This is not a place to eat at regularly. They are very high priced. But the quality and service is unmatched. So if you are having a special occasion of any sorts definitely go

Robin Sukhan

No place like 529. Very professional and the food is AMAZING. Loved the experience!

Emily CPY

I've been here many times. It's always been great and never let me down. In fact I've had the best meal of my life here

The steak was great, just a little bit pricey. I would have preferred more options for wine by the glass.

Wai Chan

This restaurant is indeed the best in Winnipeg. The atmosphere is very authentic and calm, it makes you feel very special. The service is excellent and the staff are very kind - if it is your first time, you will get to hear a tour and the meat is nicely presented. (You can also have all kind of seafood) it is really hard to express this experience in words. AMAZING PLACE

WPG Steven

Fantastic food, service, wine selection. Knowledgeable staff who are friendly. It's expensive but worth every penny.

James Lee

This restaurant is the hallmark of premium dining in Winnipeg. Staff are the most gracious, efficient and genuine that I have encountered. The space is nostalgic, beautiful and centrally located in the city. Every experience has been outstanding - I cannot recommend 529 highly enough

Carole Friborg

It has such an amazing selection of food, and drinks. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the history of the building, and was so nice. It was a wonderful experience. I would love to go again! Best food I've ever tasted!

James Bonin

Was good but could tell they had to make some covid cutbacks lol

Kris “Night Red” Arnott

Loved it, fantastic service, intimate atmosphere. Beef welly to die for.

mike dueck

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere! Every single dish was perfect, will be back!

Ryan Klann

Its been a year since ive been here but it keeps coming to mind whenever i entertain clients at a steakhouse in texas, Vancouver, Toronto or Nashville. This was the most memorable meal ive had from beginning to end.service was excellent too. I dream of coming back to Winnipeg just to eat here again. This place is that good. No joke. My clients agreed as well. Kudos!!!

Cheryl Jessamine

Supreme dining experience. Local beef. Large wine list and in house sommelier.

Chuck Hebert

Only reason I'm giving a 2 star and not 1 is because our waiter was great and did his best. With reduced capacity due to covid, why were we seated right beside another couple in an otherwise empty room? When the waiter came he immediately apologized and re-seated us further apart at a much nicer table. What can I say about the food.....for the price it was absolutely terrible. My scallops came cold, very fishy tasting, and undercooked. Was completely mushy in the middle. The au gratin potatoes also arrived at the table cold. Rack of lamb, undercooked and yet again arrived to our table cold. Girlfriend's steak was requested medium well and came medium rare. This was my first and last visit to 529. It was inexcusable for a top dollar restaurant not to have top quality food. Was looking so forward to it and instead was completely disappointed. They at least removed the scallops from my bill but in my opinion they should have knocked the total in half for how bad the meal was. We would have easily had a better meal at The Keg or Chop or cooked the same items myself.

Curé Family Adventures

Simply spectacular ... best steak I've eaten!

Canadian RS3

Always hear good abt this pl and finally tried. But I want to be honest abt my experience there. We ordered a meat platter thing, and I always like lamb, but the lamb was not processed properly and still got that muttony smell. After 10 mins the meat cooled down, the smell and the taste were even worse that I couldn’t swallow it. Other stuff we had was okay. The onion ring tower was significant. Service was all right, but you could get it from any other pl, which means an expectation of improvement at such high end restaurant.

Lyndsay Grace

Can't say enough about how great this place is! The location, atmosphere inside and out, the service and the food. All 5 star. Highly recommend the lobster tails, steak and shrimp cocktail, absolutely delicious!! You'll never be sorry you dined here, just be prepared to spend a lot. Well worth it though. Just forget to say about the bar in 529 in fantastic.

Tara

My first visit here with my husband - celebrating our 10 year anniversary! Wouldn't have chose to have it celebrated anywhere else. The ambience was perfect, the server who looked after us was really attentive and knowledgeable and took great interest in our preferences for wine. Food was absolutely delicious! Would definitely come back here for another great treat. Thank you so much, team!

Andrew G

I went for a meal to celebrate my sister's recent destination wedding that I wasn't able to attend. We brought along our 18 month old son and my sister brought her 9 month old. We made an early reservation and tried to keep our little ones as calm as possible. The staff made a big production out of closing the doors to the private room they sat us in and were very clear that they wanted us out in less than 2 hours to accommodate an upcoming reservation. The food was OK. My steak was delicious but the sides were mediocre when compared to their cost. Low marks for making us feel unwelcome.

Tobias Scruggs

Great food always and top notch service

Anita Last

Went for lunch today. First time back in about 15 years. I went for the food and was underwhelmed. I had the steakhouse burger with onion rings. Pros:. It was a lot of food. Gigantic burger with lots of toppings. Cons:. It was pretty tasteless. The onion rings...3 of them...were oversized so that meant a ton of deep fried batter. Very heavy with no real taste other than the fried oil batter taste. My friends had the prime rib steak sandwich and said it was good. It came very plain looking. See pic. Steak on some bread basically. I think that was $38 alone. I've had juicier more flavourful burgers in a lot of other places and would consider those next time. The location, restaurant and staff were very nice. Two of our table had dessert...and their dessert menu is extensive. And expensive. It's a definite must try once experience for anyone. I was left expecting more.

Jerod Rathbone

Incredible nice building, really nice waiters and hostesses. They have a nice of variety of food including lobster, shrimp, oysters and fish. Prime beef, Grade A chicken and it's sort of an experience to come here. Highly recommend dining here.

Marina Thephasone

Amazing dinner! Service was great and very attentive. Our steaks were to die for. Overall it was a great meal and we will be going back. This restaurant is a real treat for a special event. I heard the patio is amazing in summer.

Trevor Walcer

529 Wellington is such an elegant restaurant to go to, the food is simply amazing and the service was extraordinary. We were a party of three and all had a variation of a steak/seafood dish. the steaks were done to perfection and the sides were very generous in portion size. The highlight was the maple creme brûlée it was delightful. The sommelier, Christopher was put to the test when I told him that I like a sweet rose, and he didn’t disappoint when he offered me the 2013 Chateau Les Pins Muscat, it was perfect for my taste in wine. This is a restaurant that I will attend again in the future for sure!

Jordan Van Shane

Always a great experience. Same great atmosphere, every time we have a different waiter/waitress. Hostess always smiling. When a chef comes to tell you what cut of meat is on the fly, they make it prepared to exactly how you want it.

B Thiessen

Always great. High cost is rewarded with excellent service and the best steaks in town.

Geoff Schmidt

The best server, and the vintage theme of the entire. The food soo good, yes pricey for some things, but diffemtly well worth it. I will come back most certainly!

Jake Wiebe

Went there for my birthday lunch - great service and delicious food.

Flora G

Service, atmosphere, food and drink are all top notch. Everything was perfect. Amazing cocktail and wine selection.

Ser Paad

Exceptional service and really great food.

Ryan Orne-Zaluski

One word: pretentious. I was told wonders about this place, turns out it is quite disappointing. Waiters will profile you and act accordingly. I do not come to a supposedly upscale restaurant to be called "buddy" by the staff. And if you are wondering, I was dressed appropriately for the kind of restaurant I thought it was. The food is pretty good, but it is overpriced. It is roughly the same food quality as you get at an Earls or a Joey's, except they charge you an extra $8-9 if you do want a side with a burger. Desserts are nothing special, the same as in most restaurants in town. Do not go there if you're from out of town and want an actual fine dining experience, because this is not it.

Jeff Nolan

Never had a bad meal! Bring on the steak tour!

Jordan Froese

We were celebrating our first anniversary and decided to splurge and go to 529. The restaurant was very impressive in appearance and our waiter was very personable and knowledgeable although slow in service. We received water and a very thorough explanation of the various cuts of meat and preparation. He then left us without taking our drink orders. Another group came in after us and received their drinks immediately. Finally after what seemed like 1/2 an hour my husband called our waiter over and asked if we could order our drinks. He graciously took our order and went away. He brought our drinks and then took our order. We ordered the giant shrimp and chicken liver pate for appies. One giant shrimp was large and one average size and the liver pate was very thick and heavy, not soft and creamy like it should be. We ordered the Prime Rib and it was OK, nothing outstanding. The asparagus was undercooked and the mashed potatoes were again, OK. The best part of the entree was the Yorkshire pudding. We mentioned twice that it was our anniversary, once on the phone when we made the reservation and again to the hostess. It was a waste of time. Unlike other restaurants where a complimentary dessert is served or a flower for the bride, expect nothing. The waiter wasn't even aware it was our anniversary until we mentioned it when we asked him to take our picture. All in all an OK but disappointing experience. Finally a small observation and critique for management to look at. If this is to be considered a top notch, high end restaurant, the requirements for the Hostess should be slightly higher as she is the first introduction to clients as they enter the restaurant. She needs to smile more when greeting and in the presence of clients. Her dress although cute and appropriate for lunch service should be a little more formal and upscale for dinner service. It does make a difference in the atmosphere your are trying to create for your customers.

Scott Greig

Service was excellent, food was amazing

Trevor Walker

Always wonderful. Great service and the best steaks in townn

Matt Freeman

Went here for dinner and it was a wonderful meal. Prices were high but the meal was definitely worth it. Would definitely come back again. We also went early, before it got too busy, and it had a nice, quiet atmosphere. A bit louder later on in the evening. The Beef Wellington was perfectly cooked.

Matthew Sawatzky

Everything was awesome, and I made good experience from them ????

Shawn Singh

October 6th, 5pm. Our First time at 529 to celebrate our 12 year wedding anniversary. We were excited to try this place. Atmosphere was awesome. My wife ordered prime rib and loved it. I had rib eye steak and i was disappointed. I think Steak was a bit over seared, dry And no taste. It didnt look like medium rare. I had to ask our server if it was medium rare. Other than that? It was ok. Would i try it again? Maybe. Emailed without response.

meghanbird

The apex of fine dining in Winnipeg. A beautiful interior with knowledgeable staff and a wonderful menu to boot. A lovely dining experience. ????

Doug “Bowsy” Bowes

A truly magnificent experience throughout. Beautiful atmosphere with delicious food, a perfect selection of wines, and admirable service. Will definitely visit again.

Angie Anderson

Food was amazing as always. Service is top notch. Highly recommended

Elizabeth Berglund

Absolutely delicious meal. The French onion soup is perfect

Pierre Manaigre

Great place , tasty food, excellent service

Lil Cart

Best place for you to celebrate ???? Birthday ???? or any other occasion little bit expensive but worth it

Crisanto Aquino

For the price I think there's better places to go. Some parts of the meal were really good but other parts were average or worse. It's not as busy at lunchtime so that might be the time to go. Some of the steaks were quite good and others were overcooked and of all the times we've been there we've always had some food served cold. Last time our appetizers were served after our main course but we were a large group. The servers were great but the manager who dealt with some of the parties' issues was less than polite. The consensus is that its better for a table of 2 than a table of 20.

Randall Burrell

Absolutely stunning house. They gave a presentation tableside to show the different cuts of meat available on the menu, and a detailed explanation of the menu items. The service was amazing, our server was very friendly and helpful. As a person who has always said I don't like beef, I would 100% go back for that beef tenderloin. ????

Jeffrey Boitson

Atmosphere was great, waiter was great and food was delicious. 2 small criticisms are the Caesar salad dressing was far too fishy, and at the end of the night we were waiting in the lobby for about 6 mins waiting to get our jackets, we eventually had to go find them ourselves. There were about 4 workers that walked by and didn't even ask us, they clearly knew we needed our jackets but as it was someone else's job they didn't ask. That's not 529s fault though, that's just classic Winnipeg work ethic, 'not my problem'

C F

Their steaks have always been good. The atmosphere is pleasant and not too loud, as there are only a few tables situated in each room. Tables are ready when reserved, they don’t make you wait. Pricey of course.

Kelsey Semler

Just had Holiday Lunch here with my department from work. Awesome food and amazing service. Salad (Beefsteak Tomato...) main course (Blackened Chicken....) and cheesecake for dessert (see attached photo of menu our department had to chose from). Most definitely would eat here again

John Steves

Amazing food, the caesar salad and bread pudding were the best salad and dessert I've ever had.

Jerry Kezhaya

Leslie Snow

The lamb chops and the dessert were pretty decent but the service wasnt that great , probably because it was busy

I K (Kira)

I really enjoy this place. I can't say a single bad thing about 529, nor can I really give any criticism. The lack of full stars does not come from any aspect of service or food quality. I have come here every few years for a good portion of my adult life. The food is always top quality, the service is world class, and the decor is testimate to a time where detail mattered. All that being said this is easily the most consistent high quality dining experience in Winnipeg. But consistency does not make for great food. The menu is based on traditional steak house dishes and because of that it lacks any excitement. There is little to no effort to take any risks at 529. It is those culinary risks that helped define the now tradional dishes of today. The issue being that none of the dishes they serve truly feel like their own. This means that aside from the reputation of the restaurant, and the extra care that goes into their selection of ingredients nothing sets 529 apart from other restaurants of this caliber. It is like planning an extraordinary safari and never seeing a lion. The experience is there, but the thrill was not. In conclusion 529 is a world class restaurant that will not disappoint new comers or loyal customers, but people like me who make it out as a special treat every year or so will find the check at the end starts to out weigh the "wow" factor of this beautiful establishment.

Jeremy Grisim

Fantastic lunch. Service was exceptional

Stephanie Sheppard

Had an awesome experience here with coworkers. Great atmosphere, PLENTY of wine options and amazing food.

Alex Bishop

Amazing service and nice atmosphere of old mansion. Food is good, but quite overpriced. Usually you expect the side to be included in the main dish, but not here.

Alisa

Great place for business lunch. It is old school classic. It is an old mansion converted to a steakhouse restaurant on the renowned Wellington Crescent. It has had a great reputation for higher end dining. It continues to own this prestigous reputation. Our hostess and server were professional and friendly. Our server Rod was exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed our meeting in this grand dame establishment. Our meals were more than enjoyable. We had classic meatloaf and beef sandwiches with spinach salad and the daily soup. Our dining room was busy but were able to conduct business privately and properly. Located close to downtown and lots of free parking. Excellent wine menu. Go for lunch and you'll be back for dinner.

Lucas Lamoureux

Ambience is spectacular, perfect steak every time, great portions & have never felt rushed to leave, lovely staff!

James Na

Best steakhouse in the city, recommended to all.

Wadood Ahmed

Wow. The meat was perfect. The seafood trio was perfectly sized to go with the tenderloin. The only thing I did not like was the shareable sides. I wanted my own sides. But other than that, amazing. Food -fabulous. Drinks- not to strong, not to weak. Wine- so freaking good. I have no idea what I drank though, one glass of rum and Pepsi and one glass of white. Also because of the holidays, it was packed! We had a private room for our party, so we were not crowded. All in all. Amazing.

Scott Park

Great, but at those prices it’ll be a few years before I’m back. Maybe I’ll go back for the onion rings at lunch because those were awesome and didn’t break the bank

Top notch. Classic French food in an amazingly elegant atmosphere. Lounge is great for a quality cocktail. Service is superb. Most unique building you will find for a restaurant. Patio is quiet and beautiful in the summer.

The Pickle

Nothing special with the food. My shrimp tasted undercooked in the middle and for my steak I asked for medium well and got rare inside- asked for it taken back and cooked longer, it came back the same ... just with a bloody taste. If we’re paying hundreds of dollars for our meals I expect it perfect. Otherwise I would’ve went to moxies.

Francis Choo

Amazing service, fantastic food. By far the best steakhouse in the city.

Alex W

I came here for a coworker's retirement party and they gave us our own private room for about 16 people or so. I think a lot of people that are above my pay scale enjoy this place because of the atmosphere and would probably be a great anniversary place, but I'm a more down to earth person. This place is quite hidden as you basically have go through a fancy gate and walk into this really big house. It was probably someone's house a long while back. When we first walked in, they offered to check our coats too. In terms of the food, it was a good choice of food. I ordered the spinach salad, soup and while it wasn't on the menu, I asked for a vegetarian option. They ended up preparing these roasted red peppers stuffed with lentils, beans, and some other things with asparagus. It was delicious. As for the salad, it tasted nice, but I thought there was too much dressing and oil on it. It was a bit too "fancy" for me. A lot of others ordered steak and giant prawns and they all said it was delicious. Verdict: If you like your fancy food and not homemade food, this is a great place to take a special person. While I don't know the price, I'm sure it is quite expensive based on the ambiance and the high level of service.

Jordyn Wegner

Amazing food. Great atmosphere. It will be a little bit pricey though.

Scooter Macduff

One of the best steak houses I have ate at. Very upscale and the staff will bend over backwards for you.

S M

My first time and considering the circumstances I must say I was impressed. I wish I had a chance to have a tour of the whole place.... architecture, details, atmosphere, staff were excellent. I must say for the magnitude of such mansion, lacked a bit of that European finesse!!!! Tableware should definitely match that era of the building.... I would definitely go back and recommend this place to anyone that appreciates class!

Suzanne Davies

Patio is to die for, food is splendid and drinks are fantastic my good sir!

Paul Cheema

I would rather not go here. It was not terrible but I found the atmosphere to be stuffy and I don't like that they bring out all the cuts of beef and brag about them? Like I'm already here? You dont need to continue to advertise to me about how good your food is? I just don't understand the point of that. People just want to order and eat, not get a lesson in beef whatever

Ehsan Zeynali

I was skeptical I'll admit. Can a restaurant be that good? Really? Short answer: YES. The food, service, and atmosphere were all beyond anything I've ever experienced. I had the 14oz rib eye plus an assortment of appetizers and sides (beets in brown sugar and truffle oil were fantastic) plus the lava cake for dessert. Easily the best meal I've ever had.

Ansel Vyrauen

If you are in Winnipeg and want a first class steak, this is an absolute must go!!! The service was impeccable and the meal was over the top.

L Vincent

One of the best steaks you will have in Winnipeg. It is a bit pricey, but absolutely the perfect place for a "treat yourself" outing.

Patrick Touchette

Always great food, great wine and great service highly recommend eating here

Samantha M.

A bit of a mixed bag. Was recommended a decently priced bottle of wine, but my martini was small and frankly not very good for $16. Had quite a spiel on how good the beef was but I found my ribeye to be closer to a New York strip, And dry. It's the type of steak for people who don't like steak, i.e. no fat whatsoever hence very little taste. Service was a bit patchy, deserts okay but not exceptional. I'd really expect more for the price point. Having said that it was set in a great location outside.

Oai Truong

The food was excellent but the waitress was awful. We paid 500dollars and got treated like dirt. This waitress was so friendly to other customers but treated my children and I with contempt. Was aware she was talking about us to another waiter and she was not friendly or helpful. If I go back definitely changing tables if she comes anywhere near me again. Disgusting service. Good service is the clincher to a good experience. Bad service stays with you, it's difficult to get over. The food did not make up for the appalling treatment.

Ajay M

We had never been to this restaurant and decided to try it out. We were pleased with the atmosphere and the attentiveness of our waiter. We were relaxed and felt comfortable. At first I was wary since I’m not a ritzy person but the down to earth countenance of our waiter was welcoming. He seemed to read that we were not stuffy people. The food was fantastic and the portions were surprisingly large. We will return. I wish I remembered the waiters name but our bill said his # was 1012.

Ed Alexander

The off-menu Beef Wellington was amazing. Best French onion soup in town, classy atmosphere, friendly staff, a lot of great choices on the menu and perhaps even better choices off-menu.

Allan Carr

Great food . Would have made it 5 star if the prices were at least reasonable.

Neil San Juan

529 steakhouse is the fanciest nicest most expensive restaurant in Winnipeg. Everything about this place is upper class. It’s the best wait staff and you’ll really feel taken care of as soon as you walk in the door. The wine menu is bigger then the dinner menu , there is a huge selection here of alcohol it’s intimidating! I took my girlfriend here to celebrate her birthday and I had been telling her I would take her here for a long time anyway, we shared a steak and a beef Wellington. The waiter asked us if we wanted to split the two meals on two plates since we were sharing which was really nice !! The food was 10/10. Best steak I’ve ever had and the beef Wellington was amazing. Basically melts in your mouth It’s 100 dollars a person so I can’t afford to come back right away but on a very special night I will be back!!!

Arash Foroughi

There's some truth to "you get what you pay for". And at 529 you pay alot but you get alot. One of our steaks was served overcooked, they took it right back and made a new one perfectly as ordered. The serving staff were not only helpful but delightful as they assisted us. The quality and flavor of the food was excellent.

Michael MacDonald

Excellent steak and service. I came for my wife's birthday and I had personally never eaten here before, so it was nice to see the waiter bring out, show and explain all the different cuts. My wife has a milk alergy and they respected that and took care of her. All the food was excellent and the steak was one of the best I have eaten and the service was great. We will go again.

melody hines

A little old school, but amazing food and service. Definitely in my top 5 for the city.

Food is great, service is excellent, house is beautiful. Only complaint is that the menu never has anything new.

Best restaurant in the city. Always great service, amazing food and a great atmosphere. As good as it gets in Winnipeg. Recommended!

Anthony Cesar

Truly one of the best dining experiences in Winnipeg. Never had any problems there. My steak is always so tender I can pull it apart, and every dish is cooked to perfection! My only wish is that I could afford to eat there more often.

Harish Chakrapani

All about wonderful service and great food.

Upscale ala carte dining. Beautiful setting and the best service

Nathan

Always great, I have never been disappointed here. The staff are great and the food is the best in Winnipeg.

Richard Insley

Awesome food. Great atmosphere. Very friendly service.

Andrew M (OhmGnome)

Me and my Husband went here for dinner and we both ordered a steak. The steaks came out exactly like we wanted them I was very impressed with the atmosphere and the service. I will definitely go back

T Duong

Group of 8 for a late lunch. Fabulous menu and equal quality. The portions were definitely enough. They go way overboard on the home fries so be careful on the sides. Everyone enjoyed , no complaints.

Kathleen Crosby

Went there for our 35th anniversary and were extremely disappointed. The quality of the food was a big letdown. Steaks were chewy and not cooked to our specifications and the sides were horrible. The atmosphere was pretty, but with all the noise, it really was hard to enjoy. Service was so-so. Definitely would not return when there are other, far superior steakhouses here in Winnipeg.

Laurie Bowman

Amazing food. Best french onion soup ever. Steak you could cut with a fork. Very pricy but we went there for our 30th wedding anniversary. The setting is in an old mansion. I recommend.

Mike Brenan

I had shards of bone in my rib steak which I bit into and spit out twice. I also found the meat cut education quite degrading, there are better cuts being served in Winnipeg.

AnaBananya

Just an all around meh experience. We realized about an hour into our evening that our server never bothered to give us any complimentary bread, while every other table he served around us received some. Our Caesar salad was fairly bland, the marrow sauce was extremely bitter, and my wife's steak was overcooked. We barely saw our server other than when food was being delivered, and he didnt bother to ask if i wanted more when we took away my empty drink. All in all just a very poor experience. The service sure didnt make up for the inflated prices. Weve had much better meals at steak houses that charge half the price.

Jeff Bassett

The best steak I have ever had, is almost an understatement! This was delicious. We went here for our work Christmas banquet, and I have never been served by such professionals in their field! Loved it, would go back again if I had the money.

Louise Babych

Everything that we ordered turned out as we expect, at the right temperature, right spiciness as described. Love the place, love the food.

Melissa Nepinak

Dinner

Andriy Luts

Ancient decoration and epic service. Food is amazing

Julie Pritchard

I dined here for the first time with my boyfriend for our anniversary and it was wonderful. Our waiter was pleasant when giving us the beef lesson as well as when serving us. I was surprised at the price of our meal; I expected it to be more because of the quality and how delicious it was. I definitely would love to go there again soon. It was a nice little romantic place. Besides the people that were drunk at a table behind us, I had a lot of fun! Will be eating here again for sure!

Nathan Getty

Wow, awesome everything here from the exquisite food to the service and ambiance. Bring money cause it's not cheap but worth every penny.

Jose Michelena

Had the porterhouse rare which was over seared and tasted of char. I imagine when the patio dining is open in the back and it's summer (with no pandemic restrictions) this place would be a nice overall dining experience with the setting. Went to a number of steakhouses around the country, bottom of the list for me.

Patrick Hansen

This was my second visit to Winnipeg and my second visit to 529 Wellington. The food, atmosphere and service is second to none.

Wes Macdougall

Excellent food and very kind servers, went for a birthday and they made it a very enjoyable experience!

Anton S

Amazing patio with great food and service!

John David Pankratz

My favourite steak house. Tried their premium sazerac which was delicious.

Michal Brichacek

I’ve probably been here at least thirty times, and I have never left disappointed. It’s one of the best restaurants in the city, and definitely also one of my favourites. They serve excellent food, and they are also very consistent. The service I’ve received has also always been fantastic. It is definitely not a cheap place to go to, but the whole experience is worth the price. For dessert, I highly recommend the bread pudding!

Ian McMahon

Amazing steak.. couldnt be more impressed. The staff are so professional and the restaurant is very clean.

Tom Ve

Good service , little over priced

Sandy Kluka

Well, always like driving up to this place. Great building, terrific atmosphere. Most Recently I ate in the lounge. Different feel in Covid times but still nice and relaxed. Staff, as always is punctual and welcoming. Some staff more personable than others. Of course with the setting and prices your expectations are high and somewhat met. To start, the booze is always good, the drinks I ordered were made correctly and the ability to listen to a customer and figure out what their fancy is at the time is excellent. This time we did only apps, no one was interested in a big heavy meal. Well, one at our table did it, they ordered a French onion soup! Broth was nice, bread was toasted and a finer grain than should have been used instead of being day old chewy baguette so the bread didn’t really stay together correctly and it lacked enough cheese to eat completely and we only ate half the broth served. Nice flavour overall, just stingy with the cheese. Next came shucked oysters and some type of deep fried rib. The oysters were the smallest I had ever seen but the taste was true. The condiments served were very flavourful and well prepared. The ribs were ok, generic, deep fried, could have been better if pan fried or even a upgrade to a pork belly rasher, more upscale-more authentic. After the ribs came some type of little slices beef on a Yorkshire bun. Let’s just say not really a Yorkshire bun but good try. I must say the gravy was good not great( should have been a beef au jus) but was the best part. The beef was of course well done, thinly slice as expected but it was rubbery and a little tough. You would think that being known as a beef restaurant it would have been melt in your mouth and succulent. Hmmm. Next I think it was the tuna tartar. Very mild app, accompanied by some little toasted white bread triangles and a extremely mild wasabi mayo, so mild in fact it has no taste but that of oil and egg. Well, not the best composed dish I’ve had, very very very mild. But it is after all raw tuna with a vinaigrette, hard to screw up. A serving of scallops showed up next, well let’s just say 3 itty-bitty scallops showed up. Hahaha. The smell of pan fried scallops always makes my mouth water. The waiter forewarned me the size of each scallop was a little small so they added an extra. Scallops can be a challenging food to serve correctly and yes, this restaurant didn’t make the challenge. What could have been a nice prosciutto wrapped scallop turned out to be a way over cooked piece of rubber wrapped by a leathery piece of something that once had been a delicate piece of Prosciutto ham. Yep, way over cooked and burnt on the bottom. I am sure when the chef configured the menu he had a much different vision, or at least I hope so. Just when I thought we were done a little plate of cheese topped mash potatoes showed. Can’t go wrong with potatoes, cheese and plenty of butter, well, it was delicious. Well mashed, not starchy with plenty of cheese and flavour. Lastly, desert showed up. Lava cake. Nice, Have had worse. Vanilla bean ice cream was flavourful, nice. Overall go for the grandeur of the establishment, to kick back and enjoy the company of your family or friends. As long as you don’t have high expectations of the quality of food your being served you’ll have a great night. Way better executed, more flavourful, food options out there. But that’s only my opinion.

with the Stuarts

Service was phenomenal, patio area was beautiful, and food was delicious. Highly recommended.

Casey F

Great steak. Rib eye was awesome. Tender and juicy. Sides are great to share.

Nick Zhygan

Fantastic service from Alan. Had the Tuna Tartar, Onion Ring Tower, Lobster Biske, and the Beef Wellington which was the special and off menu. Everything was better than imagined. Tuna Tartare was very fresh and did not disappoint. Onion rings were the widest rings I have ever seen. The Lobster biske was super creamy and filling. Im sure if youve made it this far youre wondering about the Beef Wellington, it was fastastic. The cut of meat was perfect. The pastry that surrounds the juicy tender beef was fluffy and warm. Just like how a blanket should be. The Au Jus complimented the dish well if you like to mix it up a bit. This was my first time here and definitely not my last.

Evan Wilhelm

Fantastic steakhouse with a variety of aged steaks, seafood, salads, and drink options. Best place in Winnipeg. 15/10 bring on the meat.

Sam Melquist

Got a burger here once, ratio between meat sauce and bun was quite a bit off. Not worth the $ in my opinion, better off at the Keg.

Wayne H

Beautiful setting. Not only was food absolutely delicious, our server Rod was amazing and knowledgeable. Made our visit that much more enjoyable. Had a wonderful evening.

Natasha Schroeter

Set in a 100 + year old mansion. Wonderful atmosphere with a delightful culinary experience.

Rick Borchert

Amazing Dining Exoerience. We would go back and dine there again. Staff was kind and helpful!????????

Teresa Dingley

Excellent food in a fantastic setting. Staff at entry and for service are very friendly and helpful. Service was prompt and you could relax without being rushed. Prices are comparable to other upscale dining establishments . Good job.l

David Krahn

529 is the standard to which other steakhouse restaurants in Winnipeg are compared. The service is always top-notch and if the weather is nice there is no beating their outdoor patio.

Faye Jennings

Loved everything about our food and evening!!

Diana Egbikuadje

Amazing food, quality and service. Tuna tartar and tenderloin steak cooked to perfection 10/10

Courtney Joshua

Truly worth the money

Great experience in the patio.

Junko Bailey

The ambiance was great. The food was Fantastic, and the wait staff were very nice and informative.

mize Da Silva

Incredible food, service, ambiance. Perfection!

Jason Komoski

I had been there years ago and compared to that time this time felt like they're trying to appeal to the masses rather than giving the premium Steakhouse experience. For instance they used wheel a cart out with multiple cuts of meat and explain how each tastes. They also used to explain the aging process of the cuts they served. This time they only showed 5-6 cuts briefly and didn't talk about aged meats at all. I suspect their meats are now mechanically tenderized rather than aged. Don't get me wrong, the meal was still delicious, but for the amount we paid, I expected the real Steakhouse experience.

Garry Melnyk

The food was good and the staff was certainly friendly the whole place was quite nice

Todd Honcharik

We have been to 529 for our work Christmas party several times over the last few years and there has been a steady decline in service and quality. Prime rib roast was served blue and when we asked for it to be fixed they brought it back within 3 minutes, clearly microwaved. Servers were uninterested and didn't take drink orders then seemed annoyed when people wanted to have a drink after dinner. Our party is 25-30 people and the bill is usually around $4000-$5000. You would think the service might reflect the size of the bill. Every other restaurant we've been to for Christmas dinner has been much better. We won't be back.

Linda Haskayne

Service and Food was Excellent!!! An Absolutely, Wonderful Memorable Evening!!! Special Thanks & Appreciation to Chris!!????

Kenneth Masesar

A faultless experience for diners looking for retro steakhouse charm with William Morris style decor. Attentive, accomplished service, top notch steaks with lashings of beautifully grilled seafood and a solid wine list. Let's work shoulder to shoulder to knock the onion ring tower off the list of must have appetizers, but apart from that, don't change a thing.

ADA EVENT

Yum! Every thing was spectacular. The patio is thoughtfully designed for covid19 precautions.

Ronan Kelly

went out with my friends on Feb 9th for birthday dinner. we all ate same steak but different dessert. i had the cream brulee which make me sick for 2 days. service was good and steak was good but im not pleased getting sick after having a dessert in such a place. very disappointed.

William S

Went here 3 times in December and all times were excellent. Took.our niece and nephew, first time for them. They are a young couple and loved it. We had onion ring tower entree and dessert and cocktails and wine. Really treated well. Definitely will come back. Came back again for my husbands birthday in March and had a wonderful lunch and free birthday dessert. We sat in the lounge and it was very cozy and waiter /.bartender very attentive. Went today for my 70th birthday. Sat in the lounge and very comfy. Got a comp dessert for 2 and a birthday candle. Really elegant and pretty decorated for Xmas. Went today for my husband 80th birthday. A beautiful lunch in the lounge. Complimentary cheese cake for birthday treat. The waiters were amazing and very helpful. Food was delish as usual. Went today for my birthday lunch. Sat in the lounge and very comfy. The server was extremely helpful. The meal was delicious . A comp glass of dessert wine. Another great pre xmas lunch today. Went for our 49th anniversary for lunch. Had a super lunch. Waiter and staff very nice. Had a comp dessert wine for our anniversary. Sat in lounge. Like it in their and very cozy

Deborah Seymour

My wife and her sister, who is visiting from Calgary had a very nice lunch on July 31 to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. The service and staff were excellent. The weather was ideal and it allowed us to take pictures outside. We plan to go back soon.

리아

Beautiful building and wonderful staff, the service really was impeccable. Lovely settings and location. It's a great venue for special events. I've been to a few fundraising events held here and those were all lovely. Sadly the restaurant no longer lives up to its prestige though. The food doesn't hit the mark for how upscale the place is supposed to be. The sides in particular were quite disappointing. Prices are high relative to quality,

liz cook

This was my first time eating in a restaurant of this caliber so I may be a bit overly impressed by the ambiance of this place but regardless, it was spectacular! The service was incredible, from the hostess at the door, to the waiter who served us, I have no complaints. The food was divine, albeit a smidge expensive for my taste, but the ingredients used for each dish are top quality and the menu is extraordinary. I ordered a steak with king crab and the lobster bisque as an appetizer. One thing I will say is their lobster is cooked beautifully. I have always had a very hard time finding lobster that's cooked properly and this place is it! I was very impressed by that. Our friends ordered the oysters as an appetizer and the steak with foie gras and they also had no complaints. All in all I obviously do recommend this restaurant, as long as your wallet can take the hit! ????

S S

We had a great time at my friend's birthday dinner. The milk fed veal was delicious!

Cory Hughes

Great atmosphere. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Really great food

Nicolas Lenoir

Wasn't blown away by the rack of lamb, rest of the meal was superb though. The restaurant is beautiful inside and the staff were top notch.

Judd Sinclair

A 5 star experience. Favs include the onion ring tower, fish specials, and of course the steak! Bring your appetite.

Kevin Taylor

Service is amazing, the steaks were good but for the price I would expect more from them. The desert was amazing though.

Susanne Wickstrom

A lovely restaurant with great service. It’s high-priced but worth it. Very expensive but not over-priced. Good food should be paid for properly. It’s so great that Winnipeg has a beautiful place like this. Order the onion-ring tower for sure! And a salad —and basically alllll the sides, which are generously apportioned. My only complaint: the lobster tank in the hallway. It’s just sad. It’s bare and it’s in a stressful place for them. I’m aware that they’re going to be eaten, but their living conditions shouldn’t be poor and out in the open like that. Anyway — thank you to 529 for being accommodating to vegetarians and for giving my dad a happy 80th-birthday experience.

Maura Mahony

Expensive, but very tasty and nice atmosphere.

Ted MacDonald

Lots of great gluten free options. Fantastic food service and atmosphere!

Reuben Estra

Went for lunch today. First time back in about 15 years. I went for the food and was underwhelmed. I had the steakhouse burger with onion rings. Pros:. It was a lot of food. Gigantic burger with lots of toppings. Cons:. It was pretty tasteless. The onion rings...3 of them...were oversized so that meant a ton of deep fried batter. Very heavy with no real taste other than the fried oil batter taste. My friends had the prime rib steak sandwich and said it was good. It came very plain looking. See pic. Steak on some bread basically. I think that was $38 alone. I've had juicier more flavourful burgers in a lot of other places and would consider those next time. The location, restaurant and staff were very nice. Two of our table had dessert...and their dessert menu is extensive. And expensive. It's a definite must try once experience for anyone. I was left expecting more.

Perry Oakman

Excellent food and quite and beautiful atmosphere. Service was fantastic as well

Florence Bhebhe

Exceptional service, and excellent food! Truly the finest steak house in the city. A beautiful old mansion transformed into this high end restaurant.

David Cryderman

Food is great, servers are great, prices are high and place looks not renovated for many many years

Kim McLarty

We got Tommy as our server, very good service and was funny. The food was amazing.

W L

Expert service, amazing atmosphere and truly delicious menu. There are only good choices.

Dan B

We had a party of ten for a special Anniversary and were told we would have an upstairs room. They placed us in a downstairs room that we didn't fit in, and could not sit at the table without all the chairs touching. This room also had the only handicap entrance in it, so 5 or more times we had to stop our meal and get out of our chairs to let people get through to the door (yeah we were that squeezed in, they would have failed fire code for sure). This was awkward for the people who were forced to interrupt our event. The server did a good job but he was also struggling with the lack of space in the room. Only comment was he could have been better at explaining the sizes of their "sharable side dishes" As for the food, they did a great job on the meat.The rest was average. For $150 a person (only 4 people had drinks) I expected ALOT better from this place. I'd recommend going to an alternate steak house you'd get a better atmosphere and go twice.

Ryan Bannerman

The service, along with the understanding of the wine list was superb. I had the small filet and it was fabulous.

All_about_ food

Always an exceptional experience. Great chance to enjoy AB beef prepared how it should be when you find yourself in WPG.

marc coulombe

Excellent food and amazing service. Everything was perfect and made for a special night.

Pamela Orr

We have been here several times and have have always been amazed at the quality and service. This is a place where you definitely get what you pay for

Patrick Laurin

Great food and great service

Gerald Hildabrand

I just find it so cool and quite spectacular to have a restaurant in this beautiful victorian mansion. It's expensive obviously, and the food is pretty good (could be a bit better I guess) but the restaurant overall is just quite amazing.

Bernie Choy

First rate overall dining experience and excellent atmosphere. Serving staff is top notch. Not the best steaks I’ve ever had, but still excellent overall.

Claudia Chernitsky

The place seldom changes, it is stuck in time where the steak gods prepared the meat perfectly, and the serving bearded angel brought it to you on a plate, with marrow sauce. It is the premier steak house in Winnipeg. Virtually flawless food and service every time we visit.

Winnipeg Reviews

My husband took me there for my birthday. I was disappointed in my steak, I've had better at Tony Romas. I also ordered the Yorkshire pudding appetizer...it was extremely salty. My husband did enjoy his meal. I would rather pay $70 at Tony's then $250 here

Eric Robert

We took my dear auntie for supper on her eighteenth birthday~experience is truly awesome from appetizers to desserts. The organic spinach salad is tasty. The wild salmon entree is delicious. All sides are a la carte. We all had homemade icecream for desserts. The strawberry flavor is just like eating fresh berries. Our server extremely knowledgeable of the menu foods, patient and great sense of humor. I'm a slow eater that savers the food experience. Well worth the costs for a special occasion. Lots of fun☺.

Evelyn Acevedo

We have always had wonderful service here. Everyone is so friendly..The patio is breathtaking. Love sitting on there

Adrian S

Celebration must haves go well every time. The city's best steak and seriously good food. Words cannot describe the experience.

Nadine V

This restaurant is worth all of the hype it gets. We do all of our family birthday dinners here and will continue to. Great portions for the price. Always a great dining experience.

C Loff

Good food but pricey. Nice place to take a date to impress her / him .

Douglas Odowichuk

Fantastic food, best beef tenderloin I have ever had. The dessert is the lemon tart, and it's amazing. If you get the chance to go here, it's worth the price.

Alex Young

Sub par. Haven't been in a few years. I'm disappointed I went back. Must be under new management of something. Even the vibe felt off. Almost rushed and not welcoming.

Henry Li

The food was beyond amazing, from the steak perfectly cooked, to the sides and the bread pudding was perfect. The wait staff was knowledgeable, professional.

Chris Wattman

We go here every other Sunday and it never disappoints. The food is amazing and the drink and wine selection is endless. I’ve had few different steaks and they’ve always been excellent. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Alexander Fontana

Amazing night out with family! Everything was delicious and service was fantastic

Mark Hinton

Absolutely beautiful! Coupon is in the mail for next time??

Attilla T Hun

The food and service were very good and the house is very interesting and ornate. But is it worth the premium over other steakhouses? Only for very special occasions.

Tony Fast

I celebrated my birthday there and it was amazing ????. One of the best customer service I have received in Winnipeg!

Kevin Chan

Went here in 2019 with my teammates and loved the selection of fresh steak and sides. If youre considering this restaurant, go!

Martha Credo

My boyfriend and I celebrated my birthday last night here at Wellington and they did not disappoint. It was the best experience! Our server did not only do an excellent job but he actually went the extra mile to make sure everything went perfectly. It was fun and the food was superb. You get what you pay for. Will definitely come back again! :)

Donnelle Loewen

Delicious and very knowledgeable staff. Always enjoy eating here.

Elliot Olin

This restaurant is the hallmark of premium dining in Winnipeg. Staff are the most gracious, efficient and genuine that I have encountered. The space is nostalgic, beautiful and centrally located in the city. Every experience has been outstanding - I cannot recommend 529 highly enough

Don Ostrom

We love this place for Beef and our Birthday Lunch in January.

Jason Lemoine

Dinner tasted great and the food was out fast after our order. The only thing preventing a 5 star review was the dessert. We had the crème brûlée and it was overdone, to the point we didn't finish it . That said, we enjoyed our evening and the dinner. The restaurant was fairly quiet which made casual conversation easy.

Richard Hurd

The steaks are second to none. Other menu items are just as good. The service is excellent. The atmosphere is inviting. It is pricey but in this case you get what you pay for.

Nicolas

Always a great meal and experience. This place lives up to the hype you hear about it. Can't wait to dine in again

Mark Olson

On The burger and pickers burger and fries were ok but way way too salty. I was drinking water all night long after the meal! And normally I have to add salt as it's not salty enough!! Holy sodium!!!

Ramsey Zeid

Beautiful mansion that was wonderfully decorated for the holdays where I enjoyed a perfect Beef Wellington. I would recommend this to anyone who is a foodie.

Mark Butler

J S

Fantastic meal and excellent service. Pricey, but the house, atmosphere and food will have you wanting to go back.

Laura Kurdydyk

By far best restaurant in the city. Come here every anniversary and Christmas party for my wife's work. Had the 6oz tenderloin with seafood combo with lobster, scallops & shrimp as the main with onion ring tower, lobster mac and french onion soup as the apps. Everything was insanely good. Best service and most knowledgeable staff EVER. I think they personally know each cow they serve by first name almost lol. They know everything about their food. Highest quality available in Canada.

Peter Heijnen

The best steakhouse in the city hands down! The prime rib is incredible and you could pick any cut of steak and leave satisfied! The decor is incredible and the atmosphere is very cozy. The staff does a great job of ensuring that you understand everything that is available and they will offer you what they call a meat tour and show you all cuts and the differences between them. Whether you're looking to celebrate a special event or just trying to impress that special someone this is the place to go. Be sure to dress up as everyone that attends is dressed top notch. I try to go at least 3 times a year, I know it's expensive but you will not get a better hunk of meat in Winnipeg!

Bill Redekopp

Amazing patio with great food and service!

Deb Wall

Server carl is the best. Food is impeccable. The building is unique. Well done 529.

kishwar mirza

Hands down amazing dining experience. Great food, great staff and a nice location. Highly recommend the Sunday Prime Rib special! Make sure to have reservations.

Stian G. Andersen

We have always been pleased with the quality of food and level of service on each visit.

Eric J

Service is great, sides are great, but I've found the steak at Rae and Jerry's to be consistently better. Update: We decided to go here for my wife's birthday last year at the last minute. Since it was nice out we decided to sit on the patio. The patio is gorgeous, right on the river and nicely treed. The seafood special we had was great but I would go back just for the patio.

G Grant

Serene patio set in lush greenery. Friendly, amazing, informative staff, I loved hearing about the history of the building. The food was cooked to perfection. Everything tasted divine. The coffee was perfect.

Chuck Lee

Wonderful atmosphere on the patio. Dinner was delicious, excellent t service.

Cornell Wesselius

An indulgent experience in a stately refined opulent elagant manor. Good value for very tasty burger. Onion soup dip toned down to almost right amount. Good coffee.

Remi DuBois

Best stake/Service in country, Hy's doesn't compare to the food quality and the class and amazing AAA grade beef at this restaurant!

patricia mcdermott

Had hear a lot of hype and how expensive it was to eat here. We went for our first time this past weekend and were not disappointed at all. Very large servings, amazing food and service. The place is beautiful as well. This place is worth the hype and the prices are very good. Especially compared to chain restaurants. I would highly recommend 529 Wellington.

Randy Wilkinson

Great food. Best French Onion Soup I have ever had.

James Brown

Great menu variety and atmosphere, friendly staff.

John D

For the first time of my life, I didn’t even care what the bill totalled up to. Absolutely amazing dishes with such full vivid flavours. Service was so descriptive and caring. If you want to experience fine dinning with real chefs and crew, a must go!!!

Peter Fedak

Winnipeg finest place to dine! The service is excellent and the food is without equal. It's also great to see a high end restaurant re purpose this amazing mansion rather then build a new modern building. A must try if you are local or visiting.

David Atkinson

Service was so amazing! On the pricey side, but it is fine dining soo; also you can look up the menu before going so the prices shouldn't really be a surprise, and the quality is great. The staff make the experience really unforgettable and the food was also superb!

Cheryl Britton

Great service, excellent food. They were very accomating to my wife and I and our fidgety 4 month old. Will definetly return.

Nuflare 09

My first time at this establishment, it was a birthday dinner. I can tell you that it definitely won't be my last. The food definitely tickles the palate, and the quality delectable. Presentation was top notch, and the service impeccable without being overbearing. It was just truly an enjoyable experience. ???? Thank you 529!

Tom Davidson

Simply Awesome food!!

Morgan Morrow

We've been here several times. Our steaks are always done perfectly. The staff are very knowledgeable and check in often. Expensive, but worth it! Love the historic building as well.

Sencer Tarık Erbaş

So delicious ???? and the staff were wonderful

Rosemarie Kammerloch

I had never been, feel like I might have been more excited about the thought of 529 than the actual. Food was good, but not for the price. The atmosphere is similar. It's neat but I wouldn't be in a rush to head back. Service was very good, probably the best part of the experience.

Mark Oleski

Dine in

Sharon Li

Service and meals were fabulous. And the character building is the ideal environment for it. "Royal treatment" (Not overwhelming). Our guest and our selves enjoyed. Great selection of wine. From the beginning, Jim Armstrong helped to understand and fulfill our needs for this special visit. Thank you.

k

We booked our reservation on open table as we do for all restaurants. 30 minutes prior to our reservation we got a phone call that because we booked online we will be seated in the lounge for dinner. We canceled our reservation due to this. Disappointed. Not what we expected as we’ve always had a great experience booking through open table.

Yolande Lafond

An amazing restaurant to share with a special someone . Service was perfect beautiful atmosphere

Ashley Mcvicar

Its a bit expensive but very delicious. Went there for my one year anniversary and my five year anniversary. Will definitely go again.

Steve Grass

This is a magnificent restaurant located in an original 1910 beautiful house. Lots of ambiance and the service is excellent. The Beef Wellington I had was the best I had in four years.

K. Whittaker

I read that this was one of the top 10 wine restaurants in Canada. A couple of weeks later, my wife and I happened to be in Winnipeg for a wedding. While there, we had the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful dining experience at 529 Wellington. Notice that there are no signs posted and if you are not familiar, you will drive past it at least once. Once inside, it is simply wonderful. The ambiance of the building lends itself to slow, quiet, romantic dinners. Michael was our server and made sure that everything was perfect. A couple glasses of champagne followed by two different types of wine, how could anything be bad??? It was such a great experience that we were back the following evening for an encore!

Brian O'Connor

i would not recommend this restaurant to anyone not wearing a suit and tie. if you do not fit the cookie cutter mold of how they expect their cliental to look, you will be made to feel extremely unwelcome and unwanted. My friend and i were waiting in the lobby for our reservation when Jim Armstrong approached to seat us, it was at this point Jim asked us to remove our hats or else we would not be seated. Of course this presents an issue as 529 doesn't have a dress code, my friend and i had eaten there twice in the previous weeks leading up to this debacle and each time we clarified there was NO dress code. if we would have known hats were a no go then we wouldnt have worn them, however according to their dress code we were dressed appropriately for the evening. we had eaten in the establishment twice that month previously each time wearing a hat without incident. Jim judged us on our appearance even though we're quickly becoming regulars and the whole experience really put a damper on the evening to say the least. that evening Jim was trying to get us out the door ASAP and i asked him for his personal # so we could discuss this when he had more time, he gave me a card with the steak houses # and email. When i reached out to 529 via email i was ignored giving me the impression Jim answers the email. That evening we went to Prairie 360 after our atrocious experience at 529 and were seated without any hesitation.

Frank Rizz0

Great food/wine/champagne, service was top notch and made for a great night

Mark Doctoroff

Great service. Private and cozy.

A Terrific Steakhouse in an Historic Home. This restaurant has it all! It is located in what was the home of a "Twentieth Century Winnipeg Entrepreneur", J.H. Landsdown, who built a major, successful hardware business 100+ years ago. The house was sold to the Shriner's club in Winnipeg... and, finally became an incredible. memorable restaurant! The beef if the best available in Canada-- and the only Wpg. restaurant serving this quality meat. The ambience of the restaurant is amazing! We enjoyed our lunch as the food, service and menu choices exceeded our expectations. Give it a try, and your "gastronomic memory" will be rewarded! I hope that this Review was helpful!

Quality ingredients prepared poorly. Atmosphere is incredible if you've never seen a house before. This establishment is pretty much for people with too much money and poor taste in food. Wouldn't return even if someone paid me to go.

Mark Spevack

Spectacular meal, steak was perfectly done, and tasting the way it should. Thanks to the serving staff for a stellar evening.

Jon Rian

Love love love this place! Especially that it's one of not many that serve my favorite drink and make it very well. If you have a sweet tooth you must try their pecan pie! To die for. Seriously. Divine! Service is immaculate.

Victor Janus

Best steakhouse in Winnipeg.

I'd give it more stars if I had the option to. We were absolutely spoiled by our server: Tommy. Absolutely fantastic service. Tommy went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable with his deep knowledge of the menu and meats mixed with his absolutely terrific sense of humor. We felt that he helped make this a perfect evening. Thanks to Tommy and all the masterminds in the kitchen who prepared our meal. This was a fantastic experience. Best steak I have ever had in my life. Just, wow. Thanks everyone!

Carolyn Rose

Sat on the patio. It was beautiful. The service was amazing. The margaritas were so tasty. The lemon cheesecake was heaven.

Alex Pettit

Absolutely fabulous. So incredible to dine out (indoors in a lovely space). Cuisine and service beyond expectation. Thank you for a most memorable evening.

The Duncans

Worst service ever. The food is so so and the price is not that good. In fact it is not equal to the quality of service. So disappointed.

First of all I wasn't having a bad day, so here is my review. The place is beautiful and the service is so so. I ordered a new york strip and baked potato. The steak was not tender and full of grisal and sinew. Literally every single bite I had to chew and chew and chew to seperate the meat from the grisal and then spit out the grisal. They forgot my potato so when I asked he suggested mashed instead of baked like I ordered. We were mostly done our meal when my potato came. It was so over done the skin was almost black and I literally could not cut it with my steak knife. The inside was brown (not white), hard and very dry. The spinach salad had some gooy lumps in it, maybe some kind of cheese. IT doesn't end here. Two hours later at home I got an upset stomach and had to go to the bathroom 4 times before I cleared it out of my system. Go somewhere else!!

My husband and I decided to splurge for date night and we were not disappointed! We both ordered French Onion Soup to start. The broth was so flavourful, there was a perfect amount of cheese and the port on top really kicked it up a notch. For the main course, we both ordered beef tenderloin (I ordered an 8oz while my husband had the 12oz) and shared the mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were perfect; not a lump, buttery and smooth. The beef tenderloin was cooked a beautiful medium rare and practically melted in our mouths. The service was great; all the staff were friendly, our empty dishes were cleared promptly and our server was kind, respectful and attended to our table in a timely manor. Big bonus for not having to wait a long time for our food. Great experience!

Blake Boughen

Wonderful experience with the sommelier and meat tour! Excellent dining and service!

Peter Bialy

Welcoming atmosphere! Food was fantastic. Service impeccable.

Evan Reimer

One of the best steakhouses in Winnipeg for sure. But the service was a bit slow.

Steven Cornelsen

Absolutely brilliant experience!! Service was impeccable, and the food was absolutely perfect!!

Kathy Orellana

We had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary at this exquisite restaurant. Health protocols are properly implemented, with friendly staff ensuring the safety of all guests. From the oysters on the half shell and fantastic wine list, to the liqueur sundae with coffee and brandy snifters, everything was perfect. It is a unique experience with really cool architecture, artwork and intimate 'break out' dining rooms throughout.

Laura Maciel

Honestly, it's underwhelming. If you're going to charge me those prices, deliver something extraordinary. My spinach salad was definitely mailed in. Spinach leaves? Some candied almonds and some cheese, better offerings in the bagged salad section at Safeway. Wasn't my first rodeo, I should have known better.

Kito Nishibata

My husband and I went to 529 Wellington for anniversary. We walked in and greeted by the friendly staff. The setting of the restaurant was clean, elegant and well-kept. The service by our server Tommy was fantastic. He did not rush us, he provided information on the menu and different styles and cuts of steak; as well as, wine selections. The food, in terms of, presentation, taste and portions was exceptional. We tried the Mac & Cheese with lobster and aparagus, this complimented our steaks we had chosen and tasted great. The steak was cooked so well, it literally melted like butter in your mouth and the seasoning was perfect! The dessert was decadent and delicious. Overall, best experience and worth the price! I recommend this restaurant to anyone to visit for special occasions.

Kevin Walker

I had the great pleasure of dining in your beautiful restaurant when I was on a visit to my friend. I found the food excellent and the service excellent I fell in love with the way your waiters dressed never seen this before the waiters themselves were also excellent and as for the atmosphere what can I say only excellent I have told a lot of my friends when I got back home to Ireland

Aaron

We had an amazing retirement party on the patio. The surroundings were fantastic. Our servers were absolutely first rate! And the food was incredible. (And it was sure nice to be able to go out for dinner again)

Carol Baker

Enjoyed our anniversary meal here. The staff were great and the wine pairings were spot on.

Ellen Peterson

Fantastic service! I called and booked a Friday reservation for dinner and was able to add two people and go from 9 people to 11 two days before the date as their concierge rearranged rooms to ger us a bigger one. Food was amazing, worth every penny!

Matt Toews

Kitchen served me two separate sandwiches with food that I am allergic to, DO NOT go here if you have severe allergies.

Donna Gylywoychuk

Had a very pleasant experience here the other day. We had a reservation for 5:30pm and when we walked in we were greeted by a very friendly hostess who took our coats and then show us our seats. Our server then came over and because we had never been to 529 before he gave us a run down of all the meats and a overview of the menu. We ordered caesar salad and watched as our server made the dressing in front of us from scratch. I had a 10oz ribeye and my fiancé had a 8oz tenderloin both of which were very tasty. The ribeye had more spice to it which on some bites was a little too much but overall very good. We also ordered the 529 au gratin potatoes which were very tasty. If we had been hungrier I would have ordered one for each of us. Overall a great experience, giving it a 4 simply because of the price. It’s a very nice place to go for a special occasion.

Russell Guzman

great atmosphere, friendly staff, very reasonable lunch menu. tip for groups the shareable dessert sampler trio is a must have for 4 or more people

MIles Majcher

I was in town visiting my brother from Toronto. He had gone a few days earlier and loved it. He suggested we go back. I loved it! I consider myself to be a steak snob as Ive been to maaany top steakhouses. This was one of the best. Absolutely phenomenal! Highly recommended. Excellent service too from Roger.

Kimberly Law

An excellent meal but disappointed in the mushrooms that day. Others in our party had, had them before and raved of them were similarly disappointed.

Sharon Sohor

My fiance and I went there for a late dinner on our 7th anniversary. It was our first time there and the experience was fantastic! Food was amazing and service was even better. Get the froigras and the 22oz ribeye. Make sure you ask for karl.

Lindsay A

My husband and I have eaten here twice to celebrate special occasions, and the experience was terrific both times. The servers are very knowledgeable and professional. The drink menu is extensive and features some delicious cocktails. All of our food tasted fresh, well seasoned and of high quality. Yes, it's pricey, but worth every penny for the quality of what you're eating. The dessert menu has many wonderful choices, so make sure you save room!

George Steinsky

Amazing place, knowledgeable staff

Nicole B

Love the place. Pricy but the price is so worth it. 3 tables or so per room makes it semi private experience .

Patty Lapkin

Best meal I've ever had in my life the beef wellington was to die for. Never had beef this high quality until I ate here

Xing Huang

Went for parents anniversary of 50 years. Waiter was awesome. If you are going somewhere for a cool experience and delicious food, this is the place. $$$$$ but understand why, would recommend definitely

Christopher Duncan

Excellent steakhouse that services only the best Canada prime meats. Steak came as ordered and cooked to perfection. The waiter gave us an intro to all the different meats before we ordered and told us about the history of the house as well. Amazing dinner experience in a historic location. The desserts were excellent too.

Paul Hertz

Absolutely delicious. Always has always will be the best restaurant in the city!

Gordon Lysen

For sure this is the best steakhouse in winnipeg. For romance, business or a quick lunch on the patio this has the others beaten hands down. The steak can't be beat by any of the chain steak houses in canada or the US. Service is amazing, and the atmosphere of the old Mason's house is unreal! Whenever i can afford I go back I do!

Brittany Engbrecht

This was my first time here. All I can say is wow! The facility is amazing! The service was impeccable. The meal was cooked to perfection! It was a very memorable evening. If you are looking for an amazing dining experience this is the place to go. If you want to to enjoy alcoholic beverages with your meal be prepared to spend some money but the experience is well worth it!

Yellow Thunderbird

Lives up to all the hype. Great food, large portions and well worth a visit.

Caron Whitlaw

Great service , Great food!

I Love the 529 Steak with Seafood Trio and the scalops they served. The wine is amazing and the ambiance in this restaurant is a real five star rate! Tres Bien!

Doug Carlyle

Such a beautiful building with lots of character. The atmosphere was great. Lovely staff whom are very professional and accommodating. Steaks were perfect, though the sides menu and over quality of could be improved.

Sharon Munro

Great spot. Best steaks perhaps anywhere. Love it as one of the best steak places anywhere!

Dayanitha Jayakody

very clean, comfortable atmosphere.. obliging staff.. great food always with so many choices one would be hard pressed to not find something that would appeal.. everyone seems to go above and beyond to make your dining experience the best.. prices may seem high but you have to consider most sides can be shared.. the desserts are very well presented and very tasty.. definitely would recommend..

Ken MacDonald

Alway come here for our family dinners! We always get the best service! Our waiters are always so knowledgeable about everything on the menu! I have always enjoyed my meal and drinks and the service was always in a timely matter!

Elly Haywood

My company and I were under the impression that this place offered fine dining. We were very surprised and almost questioned if we were being pranked by the awful service. I wondered if our server Dan was performing a skit with his unapproachable, uninterested demeanour while lacking proper manners for a "fine restaurant". Our server really cheapened the experience. The food we received did not match our description of our order. Will not return or recommend.

Theresa Fosty

Always a great experience food and service wise for someone who has allergies and is a vegan.

Diane Gray

One of the best steak that I have had in Canada! <3

Kim Kroeker

A secret treasure with no signage or notification from the road. a beautiful old building with top quality steaks and wonderful service

Bethany Stoddart

Great food for lunch! Had a delicious steakhouse burger. The dijon mustard is a little strong but overall great experience. Onion tower and mini Yorkshires were also quite good

kyle thompson

Jeff did an excellent job! Thank you for the great service and professional atmosphere.

Tim Haonei

Great food and very nice atmosphere.

Tommie Lang

Great food! Great wine and great service.

Wpg Er

Best steak in town. Delicious food, great service, nice environment - their patio in the summer is beautiful! It’s pricey but worth the experience. Salad and sides are also amazing!

Lan T

The cod was juicy with a buttery texture. The service was impeccable. Almost makes me forget I'm in Dollarama-loving Winnipeg.

Mill Roc

I have been to 529 for fantastic dinners and wanted to try it for lunch. The staff were awesome, and the Metropolitan (cocktail) I had was delicious. However, the turkey/stuffing sandwich I ordered was not good at all. The meat was dried out and chewy, the stuffing also seemed too dry. It was like the turkey in your fridge 4 days after Thanksgiving, that you know you can't eat.The fries were good but seemed to have a lot of scraps that would be at the bottom of a deep fryer in them. I expected a much better standard of food here. Cannot recommend this meal at all. ☹️

Open Minded

Great food and top notch service! The decor and atmosphere were perfect for dining and conversation. I can't wait to eat there again!

Jason Smith

Amazing night out with family! Everything was delicious and service was fantastic

Robert Watkins

Amazing place. Perfect for special occasions. Service could not have been better and food was excellent.

Nicolas Picaut

Everything was outstanding from start to finish; perfection. Christopher is an excellent sommelier.

Jialin Guo

Excellent food and superb service in an elegant environment. This place never disappoints. The wine list is so extensive and the sommelier always so accommodating and knowledgeable. Our favourite place for fine dining!

Nicole Lim

Best dry ribs in the Peg, and service and staff is amazing ????

Ilana Fischel

Celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with a group of friends at 529 recently and had a wonderful time. The food was awesome and well presented; the selected wines proved excellent pairings with everyone's chosen meal and the service second to none. All in all we had a great time and wouldn't hesitate to make return visits for future special occasions.

Chris B

Service was impeccable. Our server, Devin made sure we were taken care of. The food was amazing, definitely a once in a lifetime experience if you have never been. The pricing is high and should be expected. Although there is no dress code, you are kinda expected to dress nicely. Overall great place! 9/10

Aaron Buschau

Yummmmy! Cost a few bucks but I can afford it. I have lots of employees I exploit, I mean employ

Sonya Mann

Top notch service. The food was delicious. My steak's temperature was spot on and tender. The sides are generous portions, enough for 3 people to share. You get value for your money.

Cole Crook

What a fabulous restaurant and dining experience. If you love steak you have to go to 529. By far the best steak in the city. The service is second to none. Highly recommended.

Craig Bertrand

Exceptional food and service Definitely a one of a kind dining experience in Winnipeg

Brittany Demers

Yet another amazing meal with incredible service. Thank you for maintaining such high standards!

Nikoo Niknafs

Exceptional service - extremely friendly and professional. Perfect sauces and spot on timing. Great anticipation of guest needs. Amazing homemade dessert. Excellent value for quality. Highly, highly recommend.

Collin M.

Nice little restaurant. The food is aite but the atmosphere is fantastic. Very old fashioned French vibes, very different from the fine dining you experience in larger cities like Vancouver. Still prefer the quality and taste of food in Vancouver and Toronto tho. Pate was meh, but the steak and dessert was a lot better. Server was very nice and attentive. He made sure I had everything I needed and made good suggestions. I decided to go by myself to treat myself cause life's been a beach in 2020 and the guy who answered the phone said "judging by your voice you're okay with getting stared at" which was a hella weird question. But whatever. This rating is more based on taste and experience. Overall a great place to try if in Winnipeg!

Nia

Pricey but well worth it. Get your steak "Chicago" style if you are an avid griller! 528 Au Gratin Potatoes is not enough for two... Wild mushrooms fantastic!

Len Olafson

Had a great dinner for a special occasion and was very pleased with everything. We had 10oz new York that was cooked to perfection and was lightly seasoned. And a 8oz tenderloin that was also perfectly done. Our side was broccoli. We were seated in a lovely room over looking a nice yard. Service was very attentive and filled any request. If you are having a special occasion I would recommend making a reservation for the day!

Aurelle Goodmanson

Excellent dinner.. and excellent service!

Kristy M

The food is good but the smoked salmon was a little to salty for my taste buds.

Allan Watson

Excellent appetizers and service! Would definitely recommend!
