Review Summary

Le Mezz Bistro Bar sits inside the hotel and draws attention for attentive service, with staff described as very nice. A misstep with a kid's menu involved adult size crepes being served and charged. A breakfast charge to the hotel account was higher than expected. Fries did not meet the hoped crunch, but the burger and onion rings were very nice.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Saveurs des Continents offers a huge, world-spanning buffet that many diners appreciate for its wide variety of dishes, including seafood, roasts, sushi, pasta and desserts, with an atmosphere that feels warm and family friendly and a price that many consider good value for the amount of food.

A recurring note is that paying upfront with an included tip changes the dining dynamic for some customers and can affect perceived service quality. Overall, Saveurs des Continents is viewed as a solid option for large groups or families seeking variety and quantity, but potential visitors should expect crowds, variable quality and the current tipping/payment setup.View restaurant profile

Bagels on Greene

Opens Today at 8 am

Westmount

Bagels Sandwiches Salads Vegetarian Breakfast

Review Summary

Bagels on Greene is described as a busy, versatile spot with a huge selection of bagels, sandwiches, soups, salads, pastries and drinks, and a strong takeout focus with a few tables for a quick bite. Reviews highlight the bagels themselves, especially sesame and smoked salmon, with generous fillings and tasty seasoning, though some say the bagels can be hard or overcooked. Self serve coffee and cafeteria or counter service make it a solid choice for a fast stop rather than a leisurely meal. A wide range of prepared foods including vegetarian options, a hot vegetarian buffet, knishes, empanadas and more adds variety for different tastes. Prices are generally good value but can be high at times, with some commentary about price versus portion. Service is often described as friendly and efficient, though comments about rude staff or inconsistent service exist and lines can form at busy times. Overall, it feels nostalgic and neighborhood oriented, not a fancy sit-down restaurant, and many customers return for the bagels and the ready-to-eat options.View restaurant profile
