Review Summary

Reviews for 5 Senses depict a visually striking, quirky space with artful decor and a welcoming vibe that many visitors find worth the trip for atmosphere and brunch, though experiences are highly variable. The food ranges from excellent and flavorful to disappointing and overpriced, with some dishes such as the Van Gogh panini and certain crepes receiving praise while others fall flat or feel generic. Service is described as friendly and attentive by some, but slow, distracted, or inconsistent by others, particularly after ownership changes that some say have dulled the former flair and energy. The interior and ambiance are repeatedly highlighted as a draw, making it a destination for local color and socializing, yet several reviews note long waits, mismatched portion sizes, or prices that do not always align with quality. Taken together, 5 Senses delivers memorable decor and variety, but consistency and value appear uneven across visits.

Awesome atmosphere! Although I feel like this restaurant is more known for their breakfast food, their dinner was equally as delicious! Highly recommended, & don't forget to grab a smoothie!

What a cool place. I loved all the unique aspects of it. On our 4 day stay in Montreal this place was the best by far!! I would highly recommend this place, however that would mean it will get busy. I want this place back home.

The atmosphere is great ! This feels like a very nice place to hang out with friends at. The service is very nice. However, the bottled water was extremely expensive, & the brownie I got was very dry. Still, the hot chocolate was good, & I'd recommend this place for students & anyone in need of some art inspiration.

They have a lot of variety which can make a difficult to choose what you want to eat. I was very happy to see that they had many vegetarian options & quite a few vegan ones as well. the food was good it had mushrooms though mixed in & I didn't know that until I already had my plate so it was hard to get rid of them & I had to deal with eating the mushrooms unfortunately. The atmosphere is super cute, dainty vintage. It looks like they got a bunch of stuff from a bunch of different places & put them all in one place. They even have movie theatre seats & some places instead of chairs. The service was fast. the food was also good. It's a mix of a café & a restaurant you have to go & pick up your food from the counter when it's ready. overall cute place. I do recommend that you try it.

Visité hier avec ma famille - un endroit merveilleux au design incroyable. L'ambiance est très chaleureuse. Il y avait beaucoup de visiteurs - il était difficile de trouver une place libre. Mais nous sommes venus ici plusieurs fois - il y a généralement peu de monde ici. Très savoureux & créatif - je recommande de venir ici & d'essayer au moins le panini.
