Reviews of Gliss Steak & Seafood (Restaurant)

Ben Newland

Didn't really enjoy this place. Great service, but food ????p needs work.

Tina & Jim

Went two nights in a row. First night we had Cajun pickerel... incredible. Second night we had Steak... again incredible. The meals were delicious and very satisfying. Would visit all the time but we live in Toronto!

Jaime P

The good reviews must be from there old location.Slow service Hostess/waiter didn’t even ask what we wanted to drink and was slow to come back. Fish was good though once it finally came out. No going back.

Karey Coleman

Recently had a funeral luncheon there and it was wonderful. The food was great and the staff was attentive and accommodating.

Amber Becks

Absolutely great service and meal as always. Menu is always changing for variety of excellent food choices made the way you request.

mouse ryan

Excellent food and service!!!

Chris Steeves

Service was slow and the atmosphere was terrible. Felt like you were in a Library. Could hear the chef calling out orders in the kitchen and the food is definitely not worth the price. Never again.

Marc-André Pelletier

Take out

Mlle Jess et Monat Monat

Delicious food

Kleon Judith

We were undecided what to eat and drink and he went through all the specials and our menu with us. He made us feel at home! It was clear he knew the menu inside out and knew exactly what wine we should pair our meal with. It’s nice to see such wonderful service at restaurants. awesome

Chris C.

Great service and food!

Will Prentice

All you can eat locally caught whitefish for $20??? OMG! I opted for pan-fried, which is lightly floured first. Perfectly cooked (because it's not hard to screw up whitefish) - firm but flaky and really tasty. Fries were crispy. Housemade slaw and tartar sauce were nice touches. Portions are substantial - the plate of calamari we started with could have been a meal!! I'll definitely be back!

Rémi Roy

Great staff! Decent food, would revisit.

Jaime Jacques

Such wonderful food and great service!

R B

Food was awesome, everything was cooked perfectly from the mains to the sides. Service was wonderful as well. A little more in cost be really showed in the dishes.

Darrell Payette

Food is great but we wait too long????????????

ER F

Food and hospitality was amazing. Gentleman that was playing guitar and singing was outstanding.

Steve Mathew

The food is expensive but the quantity and quality is par excellence. You need to have a reservation to experience great service. But you could try just walking in. Overall: strongly recommended.

Jay Turano

Very friendly staff, decent food, try the local white fish next time you are there. Ambiance could use some work though. It’s a Soo 5/5 but a big city 3.5 to 4/5. Enjoy.

Andy Fairbrother

Had a very good meal. Service was great. Centrally located.

Neil Brennan

Amazing food, great service. Loved it.

Katie DesLauriers

Love it will come back

Brian Campbell

Not what I would expect from what we thought would be a higher end restaurant.

JeffnVirginia Mostow

Fantastic, wonderful service. Not only a great hotel to stay at but 5 star restaurant. The food no matter what you choose on the menu, you will not be disappointed. They nail it everytime. Stayed at the Quality Inn for a week. Toured the menu. The dinner specials are always top notch. Personal recommendation, lamb shank. Fresh and tender lamb. Stuffed chicken breast with prosciutto will blow your skittles out. To be honest I was a bit skeptical with the size of the menu and it being a restaurant at the quality Inn... Boy was I wrong. These people love what they do and do it well. This place is unique and if you're wondering where to stay in Sault St Marie, this is the place. I've had zero interest in going to restaurants outside of the hotel. The menus diverse enough to suit any mood or craving. Ok enough. 5/5!

Derek Martin

Dinner

Susan Rose

Food was good, but the menu is a little dated.

Stephanie Chipman

A little disappointed ???? Ordered my steak well- done only to have it come out under cooked (specify to the waitress no pink). You'd think with the price of the meal they would know how to make a steak. (Didn't offer to fix...so brought it home to my husband)

Mark Kluensch

Absolutely one of the best restaurants in Sault Ste Marie!

Brian Van Wyk

Excellent food.

Marsha Deans - Titus

Excellent food and staff

Anastasia Ogloff

I took a hot date here and he said he could cook a better meal from home. The salad was fresh, the marinara and pene was not. Also, the staff openly discriminated against customers based on their medical status.

James Warner-Smith

I am pretty picky, but this one was great! Great service as well.

Lam Trần Thanh

The tomato dill soup was to die for. I ordered the buffalo wrap and got a Thai o email instead but it was still amazing.

Matthew K. Dickinson

Nice menu.

whataheadache1967

Decent

pauline richard

Great tasting food. Perfectly cooked salmon special tonight.

Kelly Rathwell

The food was delicious and the portions a good size. Atmosphere is cozy it a great little place.

Mandi Dolle

Service

Amy

Best escargot I've ever had.

David Apfel

Both of our delicious dinner meals were prepared very skillfully, and our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly. The relatively high price is in line with the quality of the offerings, in my opinion.

Lesia Mozarowski

Awesome again

Shelley May

An absolutely experience all around. Food is always to perfection, service is prompt and very friendly. If you haven't been you should.

Daniel Smith

Good lunch menu

Dunbar Thompson

Great expérience, the food was perfect, the service was impeccable! I recommend for anyone wanting à Nice night out!

Drew Bramham

Top rate. Can't wait till they reopen on Spring Street across from Thomas Walls and Central Church

Karen

Food was delicious and well priced, server was attentive and friendly and there was never much of a wait for anything!

Michelle C

Good food

Christopher Morris-Page

Great atmosphere and food and wonderful staff with good beer on tap. I always enjoy going for lunch and dinner here. The menu has some more interesting choices. My small complaint is they need to replace the chairs at the bar area.

Andrew Eakett

Build your own burger for lunch is outstanding. Dinner options are a little over-wrought for me, but make sure to get the risotto cakes if you are there for dinner… tasty.

I Gollinger

Service was great and so was the food. The whitefish was excellent. Will definitely be going back and trying the steaks. We had a great experience. Thank you.

Carol Jensen

Amazing service and amazing food! Celebrated our 25th anniversary here and couldn't have asked for nicer service! Definitely a 5 star rating from us! Thank you

Excellent atmosphere

Lisa Balsamo

We had an incredible dinner at Gliss last week. We did not know what to expect as this was our first visit to Gliss and I can say it was FANTASTIC - from the service, to the ambiance to the quality of food - this place will NOT disappoint. We ordered coconut shrimp and escargot for appetizers - sooo good. Entrees were fall off the bone ribs, incredible whitefish and the most delicious stuffed chicken wrapped in Phyllo pastry. The service was amazing, attentive and accommodating. The next time we are in the area Gliss will definitely be our dinner spot. Thanks for a delicious meal.

Valerie Boivin

Great place in Sault Saint Marie, plates are really generous, well seasoned and very tasty ! We had an amazing service by Jen ;)

Tabitha Running

Gliss has to be one of my ultimate go-to's for a great meal. Handsdown my favourite stuffed chicken, that cream sauce is to die for!

Gregg Loane

Had the Veal Marsala with risotto cakes. So good. Huge portion. All my friends enjoyed their meals as well (whitefish).

Jeff Shortt

We had a steak dinner and salmon dinner it was out of this world! Exceptional food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommended.

super mario

Excellent service and excellent food.

William Boyd Dumais

Started out with a great Caesar salad and a 55 beer (local and easy to drink) then a mix of cheese pesto ravioli and a half rack of good ribs, not a standard mix but rubbing the cheesy pesto goodness in rib sauce did it for me. Good service too

David Johnston

Delish! Great service!

Aleks Bael

Super service and great food

Rob RobC

Small menu ,small restaurant, nice staff but are not not staffed enough. Food is good and typical steak and seafood.

Heidi Bichler

Rob & Ray “Bubzie & Babez” Cummings

Best steak in town.

Lynn Dee Eason

Good food and service

Josh at The Barrel

Food is great and fairly priced. I really miss the Steak Shitake tho. It was my favorite steak in the city. I hope they offer it as a special in the new year and bump my rating to a 5 (wink wink). Friday night fish fry is best bang for your buck. Cozy atmosphere and responsibly spaced.

Katarina Dunham (Katarina)

Dude. Don’t close 2 hours (8pm) before the advertised closing time (10pm). Failing to manage customer expectations results in a loss of trust, and word of mouth travels fast in a small town like SSM.

Allan Dunphy

The food is delicious and the staff is delightful.

Tim Gowans

Excellent dinner; excellent ambiance; great place to celebrate our anniversary. There was a problem with our reservation but Kristy and team were able to accommodate us with only a very minor delay even though it was a very busy night. We will be back; order the Prime Rib - a house specialty.

John Howgego

Food and service both ok, a touch over priced for the food quality.

Majo Ferdinandus

We had a lovely dinner at Gliss this evening. The server was friendly and attentive. The appetizers were wonderful....baked brie with cranberry salsa, beef tartlets, and tenderloin bites. Nom nom. My one suggestion is to precook in the onions in the tartlets...they were a bit underdone. I had the stuffed chicken...they accommodated my sensitivity to red pepper and left that ingredient out, which was nice. It was so yummy, as were the risotto cakes. My companions raved about their steaks and sesame tuna. We topped it off with the praline cheesecake. Moist and delicious!

Denis Gagnon

Excellent food great service

Vamsi Kota

Food is very good. We ordered half rack ribs and stuffed chicken. Sides are fantastic. Grilled veggies and risotto cakes are really good. I wish staff is a bit more friendlier. I recommend this place for their food.

Corv P

Gliss is by far the finest restaurant in this city. If you are visiting Sault Ste. Marie or even if you live here, I cannot give enough praise for both the quality of service and the world class food. This establishment is a MUST visit! You will not leave disappointed.

Cathy Chaput

Fabulous. A culinary delight

Chris Raginskis (Raginskis)

Can't get enough of this place. The new location is cozy yet refined. The food continues its journey of excellence, following chef Turner and his lovely wife wherever they go. I will continue to visit Sault Ste Marie's Premier steak and seafood destination as long as they continue to cook like they do!

Joe B

Great food, and great service by Jody Z.

Gerald Helferty

Very good food and service thanks first-time there

Franc Marrato

Fairly pricey! The staff is amazing though. The lunch menu is full of delicious treats and the steaks have all been served with the deepest care. I went here with my grandparents and enjoyed both the food and the service.

Ian Sprague

Underwhelming.

Gabriel Tessaro

Good food, atmosphere and service

Anna Parker

Never went there recently

james ens

Omg this place is amazing. The vinaigrette on the salad was to die for. The whitefish which was all you can eat was perfect. Staff was right on the ball. If you are in Sault Ste. Marie you must go downtown and eat here. You won't be sorry

Mary Ann Gibson

Speedy service and diverse menu selections.

Christine King

(Translated) I rarely eat such a good meal. I took the snail and mushroom starter, it was amazing! I had a surf & Tuff with the crushed potatoes that were covered !!! (Original) J’ai rarement manger un aussi bon repas. J’ai pris l’entrée d’escargot et champignon, c’était hallucinant! J’ai pris un surf&Tuff avec les patates pilés qui étaient capottés!!!

Gabe Tessaro

Ate a late dinner and cocktails here a few months ago and I intend to visit again soon.

Margarete Cameron

Excellent service and delicious entrees. Who could ask for anything more?

Eva Pinnell

Outstanding dinner. Thank-you for a relaxing wonderful dinner.

Angela Seymour

Delicious food and great quality!

R Chiu

after we finished our Agawa Canyon train ride, we went to this restaurant for dinner. we are very impressed with the quality of the food and service from this restaurant. we went to various restaurants in Toronto, Markham & Richmond Hill regularly, and this one, in terms of food/service, is better than a lot of famous restaurants we went in the GTA area. the price is also very reasonable based on the food they offered. By reading the price in the menu, you will think it's a little bit over priced, but once you have your first bite of the food, you'll agree it's worth it. not only the taste is good, the quality of the food (meat/seafood) is higher than other restaurants. The service is great as well. the person who served our table was Alyssia (I hope i got the correct spelling). she always has a smile on her, she's also very attentive, she came by our table few times to make sure everything is good. too bad it's 6-7hours drive from Toronto, if they're in Toronto, for sure I'll go there more often. Thank you for the delicious food and great service!!

Jerry Kroetsch

Very friendly staff, food is always amazing.

Micheal Mador

Terry Grexton

Great service, great food.

Imeon Elnar

Love the Lobster bisque soup......my favorite....

Terry Robertson

Awesome food and atmosphere

Darryl Mohammed

The steak is a 4 out of 10. The meat wasn't aged. The resoto cakes is good. The appetizers are good. Choices are limited in the Sault so this is it for a average dinner at above average prices.

Blaine Sandberg

Fantastic food great service

Jill Whiteman

Very tasty fresh fish

Matt B

Review of new location. Resembles a diner with dim lighting, it was definitely transfered to the new location on a tight budget. Seafood pasta was almost a joke. Waitress said it was delicious and was made with fresh pasta. Pasta was definitely out of a box, which is fine. But, it was covered in soggy salmon, and over cooked shrimp, and scallops. Not quite sure why it was topped with a large amount of feta cheese. Seems strange on a seafood pasta. My friend had the lamb, he said he liked it, but the presentation was less than appealing. Especially, when commanding near $30 per entree. Also the bathroom, which is in the basement, was in quite poor condition, definitely didn't feel like a mid-range steak and seafood place.

YY L

Roasted potato very delicious. Steak smells great.

Stephanie Roy

Loved it!

Rickey Bonk

You always get your money's worth and more at Gliss. Cozy, intimate, with friendly staff and huge portions. The best steak in town, fresh seafood, and creative takes on traditional entrees and apps. Fresh baked desserts are a nice subtle small town touch. Enjoyed the visit from the chef de maison to our table as always. My family's favourite dining spot.

Nancy Soltys

Highly priced for mediocre food and service. Probably won’t be back.

Joel Graham

The food is ùmy

Emerson Matthew

I really enjoyed my meal at Gliss.

teddy corbeil

Good food, OK Service.

Eric Boulay

Amazing food, set in older home/building, creaky floors and such with matching atmosphere. Again, great food!

Alan Pyette

like the food and good to bring a date

Veronique Aubin

Had lunch there today. Prime rib sliders and potato leek soup. Yummy and service from Tonya was excellent.

Mr. Spexx

Try the Lobster Bisque. Took my tastebuds to FlavourCountry™

Carla Grawbarger

New Years Eve disaster! (2017) Worst and most expensive meal ever. For $278 we started dinner at 8. The waitresses got every course wrong and were going from table to table asking if this is your dish? It took so long for dinner to finally arrive that we just took the wrong entre as we couldn't wait any longer (we had plans for midnight, New Years). We were ignored the rest of the time. No drinks, not even water. People were leaving with their doggie bags and we hadn't even gotten our desert. At 11:15 we had to go. We called the next day and explained what happened. The owner offered us a free meal, but after 2 bad experiences were not interested in revisiting. She said she would discuss a refund with her husband and never ever called us back. At bare minimum we should have had desert refunded. Shame on you Gliss! You got greedy and tried to serve more people than you're capable of. Never again!

Patricia Pihlaja

Great fast service. Great menu selection. Ordered the Chicken Curry....very tasty. Homemade coconut tart for dessert. Wish they used real whipping cream with the dessert instead of what tasted like Cool Whip....the tart itself was delicious.....

Terry Trimm

I'm a professional eater outer and this was hands down the best meal I've ever had! The service was amazing. Well done Gliss ????

Carol Trainor

Best restaurant ever!!! Cajun pickerel, stuffed mushrooms and the best Cajun sweet fry sauce!!!!

dinesh uniyal

Not as good as it used to be. Trending down.

Stacy Tulloch

Great food excellent service

Penny Horsman

The food was absolutely delicious. Courteous owners and staff. They make you feel very welcome and comfortable.

Tina Larson

Was visiting Mackinac, had a taste for a steak dinner, and decided to cross the border on a whim. Found our way here. No reservation, but seated right away. Very few people, but was a Sunday during American Memorial weekend. Food was excellent, but waitress was brand new and still trying to get her feet wet. Otherwise excellent night.

Patty Caputo

Had an awesome steak here. Cooked to my liking

Dan Joseph

This is a nice place to have a meal or just sit in the lounge area for a drink. Staff is always nice and attentive.

Dale Godfrey

Not bad but pricey

Pablo D

Good food. A little pricey and service was a bit slow.

C C

Oh..... THE FISH !!!! To die for Mmmmm

Cheryll Beauchamp

Place was so cold by nose started running. Very dark. Unable to read menu. My husband gave me a flashlight to see it. Butter Pat's were frozen for bread. Garlic all over roasted potatoes. I am allergic to garlic. Replaced with twice baked potato which was excellent. Steak was overcooked. Not offered dessert menu. Just very disappointed!!!!

Arkadiusz Mastalerz

Been on a car trip for a week and this is the best place we ate so far! We only dropped into Canada on our way through UP Michigan and we are glad we did. We got there before dinner time so only had sandwiches but man were they great! Whitfish and steak sandwiches were AMAZING! Highly recommend to everyone!

Tony Gagliardi

Best ribs I've ever had without exaggeration. Had back to back racks while in the Soo on business. This place is a must go.

John R Wilson

Dinner was delicious...too long between appetizer and main or it would have been 5 stars...haven't been to Gliss in years and felt it has really improved.

J R

Good food at a good price. A nice atmosphere.
