Dishes such as spaghetti puttanesca are praised, while some bakery items are criticized for texture or value and the croissant or cinnamon bun can be disappointing. Coffee is good but non dairy milk options are lacking. Staff are described as friendly and attentive, with some noting exceptional care from a bartender, though experiences can vary. Travellers with kids may struggle to find universally appealing options, though attempts are made to accommodate. Montreal style bagels and smoked meats are highlighted as a feature, with bagels described as less dense and mildly sweet when toasted; the overall impression is mixed but positive for value and certain items, tempered by expensive pastries and variability in service and airport logistics.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Chocolats Favoris earns praise for a wide range of chocolate flavors and ice cream, with chocolate dipped cones frequently mentioned and a small cone often described as enough. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, supported by good service, ample seating, and a strong display of Quebec chocolate craftsmanship that makes it a reliable favorite for many.

Gigi

Review Summary

Gigi is widely praised for thick, old‑school pizza with a crisp crust, rich sauce and generous toppings, often described as top quality and among the best in the West Island, with a warm, family friendly atmosphere and attentive staff that make guests feel welcome. The pizza is the main draw, though reviewers note the price can be high and a few visits feel expensive for two large pies, yet many feel the quality justifies the cost. There are some caveats, including a lasagna with meat sauce that proved disappointing, subs with inconsistent meat and dressing, and occasional reports of fries or poutine not meeting earlier standards, as well as instances where service did not always match the food. The venue is small and old but clean, parking can be challenging and booths can feel tight, yet the nostalgic vibe and reliable pizza keep patrons coming back.View restaurant profile
