Substituting crepes with French toast at no extra charge and complimentary orange juice are noted as customer focused touches.

Free parking adds to the convenience, and the authentic menu earns strong recommendations from diners who call it a hidden gem and a go to brunch spot. Some points mentioned for improvement include decor that could use a refresh, limited parking, and one note that the bacon was quite dry in a particular order.

Côte-des-Neiges

Japanese Sushi Poke Bowl

Review Summary

Posher receives a mix of praise and critique across reviews, with sushi described as delicious and miso soup praised, and pokes noted for balance and satisfying textures. Some reviewers also mention good value and a friendly owner, and the fish is described as fresh. However, several reviews report inconsistencies and issues in later orders, including overcooked avocado, expensive water, a tea service with a leaf, unwanted fried items, absence of wasabi, overly salty miso soup, and sushi that falls apart or is poorly cut. The seating arrangement with long bar tables and slow service, such as a cocktail taking about an hour to arrive, are noted as drawbacks, though the space shows potential to become a great bar if hours were extended. An update indicates that the restaurant is closed.View restaurant profile
