Reviews of Eggsquis present a mixed picture: many diners praise the breakfast quality, generous portions, and friendly service, with some calling it the best breakfast spot in Montreal and noting good value and reliable flavors; at the same time, others complain about noise when the place is full, cold eggs or cold food, and uneven service with slow coffee or forgotten details. Some readers mention doors slamming and drafts by the entrance, and a few point to cleanliness concerns in the toilets as a reflection of overall cleanliness. While longtime customers say the restaurant remains a dependable option with a welcoming atmosphere, certain visits feel ordinary or disappointing, with bland potatoes or a lack of wow factor.
