Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

Review Summary

Le P'tit Rustik comes across as a bustling brunch spot in Montreal with a warm rustic vibe that many reviewers find charming and worth waiting for on weekends; the menu is praised for generous portions and house made dishes, with eggs benedict and pain doree and pistachio toast, French toast, bognettes, and shakshuka on toast repeatedly highlighted as standout options; overall quality is described as delicious and the brunch scene as among the best in the city, with locals and visitors returning again and again; prices are on the higher side but many say the experience justifies it; service is commonly described as friendly and efficient when not overwhelmed, though peak hours can bring longer waits and occasional slower attention or a loud crowded room; the terrace earns compliments in warmer months and there are notes about the lack of reservations, crowding, and occasional small issues such as extra charges for add ons or mixed execution of some dishes; in sum, Le P'tit Rustik delivers a strong and often exceptional brunch experience that keeps drawing crowds.View restaurant profile
