Review Summary

La Louisiane is described as a resplendent place with a pleasant ambiance and consistently remarkable service, where attentive staff and a lively open kitchen create a welcoming vibe and the bar scene with spicy lemonades and occasional jazz nights adds to the atmosphere.

Brossard Bagel

Greenfield Park

Bagels Sandwiches Breakfast

Review Summary

Brossard Bagel receives wide praise for wood fired Montreal style bagels that are hot, flavorful and reasonably priced, with many calling it among the best on the South Shore and a notable find for visitors passing through. Reviewers enjoy a broad range of flavors such as sesame, pumpernickel, coconut and strawberry, and highlight delicious bagel sandwiches and smoked salmon options, along with friendly, attentive service and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. The experience is enhanced by watching the bagels bake in the wood oven, but a few visits were marred by bagels that seemed undercooked or too small, and some patty fillings and a roti were criticized for lacking meat. A health concern has been raised about plastic bags sometimes being placed inside the paper bag with hot bagels, prompting suggestions to change practice. The menu's Caribbean influence and the availability of beef patties alongside traditional bagels add a unique local flavor, and many reviews say the bagels stay fresh for several days. Overall, the place is regarded as a must visit for bagels in the area, delivering taste and warmth, with occasional consistency issues noted by a minority of customers.View restaurant profile
