Review Summary

Maison Kam Fung draws a mix of praise and caveats in reviews, described as a lively Cantonese dim sum spot with a broad rotation of fresh, flavorful dishes and generous portions. The atmosphere is often bustling and canteen-like, especially at peak times, and service ranges from impeccable and attentive to rushed or impersonal, with some guests noting language barriers or quick billings during lunch or dinner. The cart system offers a theatre-like dining experience for selections like dumplings and other small plates, though timing can vary and some items arrive lukewarm. Many diners celebrate authentic flavors and a family friendly vibe, and several call the place a top dim sum option in the area, while others mention that quality and value can fluctuate and weekend crowds affect consistency. Takeout and dine-in experiences are both common themes, with portions satisfying and prices often deemed reasonable, and the restaurant repeatedly cited as a popular choice for gatherings despite mixed experiences.View restaurant profile

Duvernay

Review Summary

Crèmerie Oh! serves house-made ice cream and sorbet in a warm, family-friendly setting with a wide, ever-changing selection of flavors. The attentive owner and the family atmosphere among the staff shine through in the service. The reviews celebrate great flavors, numerous exclusive options, and offerings for vegan and gluten-free diets, including gluten-free cones. Desserts extend beyond scoops to cakes, pies, brownies, and tarts, with a salted caramel favorite and a playful treat named "monkey's droppings." An outdoor area with colorful seating and games for kids adds to the appeal. A few visits report a hiccup when a cone broke and a replacement was charged a second time, described as an ordinary moment rather than a standard. Overall, Crèmerie Oh! is seen as a beloved spot for quality, variety, and a welcoming vibe with many reasons to return.View restaurant profile

Café Ice Cream Sandwiches Grilled Cheese

Review Summary

Across the reviews, Café Le loup bleu is described as a small cozy neighborhood cafe with a warm wooden interior and a generally pleasant vibe that invites a quick coffee, a bite, or a study session, with outdoor seating and no table service for dine in. The ambience is repeatedly praised and the drinks such as cortados, lattes, and mochachinos are often solid, and the pastries and snacks are described as tasty with veggie options noted; the place is considered a favorite near Parc La Fontaine and a staple of the plateau by several visitors. Yet experiences vary: some customers report a less friendly or distracted server, a late closing with loud music, and a case of turning away a parent with children for an ordinary take away biscuit; critiques also mention a matcha that tastes like water and pastries that can be too sweet or not as moist as remembered. Overall the cafe comes across as adorable and charming, with a cocoon like feel and frequent goodwill from staff, but with enough inconsistency to temper the overall impression.View restaurant profile

Meet Fresh

Downtown Shaughnessy Village

Bubble Tea Desserts & Sweets

Review Summary

Meet Fresh is described as a go to dessert spot with large, shareable portions and a friendly staff, and the late hours make it easy to visit with friends. The selection of shaved ice, bingsu, and toppings like mango, strawberry, taro balls, grass jelly, and pudding gets many nods for bold flavors and good presentation. The atmosphere is often praised as comfortable and spacious, great for hanging out and taking photos, with friendly service noted by several reviewers. On the downside, the ice can feel more like crushed ice than true shaved ice, some fruit toppings are sparse or frozen, and a few drinks or toppings are either too chewy or bitter or priced high. Waiting times can be long at peak times, and in some cases the overall value is questioned when fruit is lacking or portions feel excessive. Still, Meet Fresh remains a solid option for late night dessert and for sharing with friends, with most guests leaving satisfied by the variety, the quality of desserts like taro balls and grass jelly, and the overall experience.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Crèmerie SWIRL is described as a creamy coconut milk based soft serve with a rotating weekly lineup that keeps flavors fresh, from fruity options to more adventurous picks like hojicha and black sesame; vegan and dairy free options are frequently highlighted as a major plus. The limited walk up window menu contributes to fast service, though several reviews note the small menu and higher price point. Many visitors praise the friendliness of the staff and the welcoming vibe, while others note that while the flavors are often innovative and tasty, some batches or combinations may not meet every expectation.
