The menu gets praise for substantial breakfasts, generous portions and dishes that recall Montreal bagel flavors, making it a popular brunch destination worth a detour. Some meals, however, fall short with a vegetarian casserole that has too many potatoes and too few vegetables, and a few reports of ordinary or burnt potatoes, small portions and missing depth in certain sauces. Service can be variable, with some visits noting attentive staff and quick service, while others complain about delays, small coffee cups and inattention. Prices are occasionally described as high, and a few diners mention not returning due to service or consistency issues. Overall, the reviews point to a strong bagel and brunch-focused concept, a friendly atmosphere and a place many patrons would return to for a reliable, enjoyable start to the day, albeit with caveats about consistency.View restaurant profile

J'ai Feng

Opens Today at 11:30 am

(29)

Little-Italy

Szechuan Chinese Asian

Review Summary

Reviews of J'ai Feng present a mixed picture: the popup is cited as a draw for some, the noodles are frequently praised with ginger green onion and ginger scallion options highlighted as standout, and the spicy oil is mentioned as a prized item, while others find the prices high for the quality and the dishes sometimes too salty. Takeout only is a common theme, with many noting there is no seating and that online photos do not reflect the actual setup, plus a limited noodle lineup and no protein add ons in some cases. An incident about being charged for a fridge soda is noted, and several comments appreciate quick, friendly service and fast prep which contribute to good value for a quick lunch or workday bite, but a few advise home cooks not to expect restaurant style results. Enthusiastic praise appears in multiple languages about flavor, with recommendations for trying the noodles and the spicy oil, and others acknowledge the space as a casual, convenient takeaway spot rather than a dine in destination.View restaurant profile

Buffet Chinois Chez Song

Contrecoeur

Chinese Asian Szechuan

Review Summary

Buffet Chinois Chez Song is described as one of the best buffets the reviews have visited, with very good, fresh food and frequent turnover, and it comes recommended to anyone looking for reliably tasty options. The place is viewed as mid sized with good, fresh cuisine overall. Arriving before certain hours yields a variety of interesting items, but arriving just a few minutes past hours can lead to being refused at the door, especially on Saturday evenings, even when business hours extend later. For people who eat early on weekends, there are options, though there is a sense that kitchen hours could be updated to reflect actual practice.View restaurant profile

Maison Kam Fung

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
