- Brasserie Holder (French Bistro is between Old Montreal and Downtown)
- Cabaret du Roy (which attempts to recreate food and ambience of New France but best experienced as a group)
Some additions to that from a regular visitor to Montreal:

Old Montreal: Le Muscadin - one of the largest wine cellars in Quebec (lots of Italian wines)
Out of town if you have a car: 40 West (same owner or used to be as La Queue de Cheval) for a great steak

And yes, I agree, Gibbys is a great place too.
