Alejandro offers a warm, inviting Mexican brunch experience with flavorful, authentic dishes, generous portions, and thoughtful touches like fruit plates, smoothies, and complimentary bread. The vibe is welcoming, with friendly staff who often go the extra mile, though service can be slow when the restaurant is short-staffed and a few orders can be delayed or mixed up. The menu is diverse and mostly clearly executed, with many dishes adaptable to vegetarian options, and the menu accessed via QR codes on the tables is common. Highlights frequently cited include fresh, homemade tasting food, the hot chocolate, and standout items like chilaquiles, omelettes, and various Benedict-style dishes. Occasional drawbacks include a small bathroom, water refills not always provided, sometimes burnt bread, and a few consistency issues. Overall, Alejandro is considered a top choice for brunch and a place many would return to with friends despite a few service glitches.
Our server was really sweet enough, but the food just didn't cut it. Got the enchiladas & it was dry & the I was not a fan of the sauce. The omelette was also not great. 2/3 of our means we didn't enjoy at all. Won't be going back, there are a ton of better brunch places in the city.
Very nice brunch place. Easy to make reservation & very fast response. Interesting Mexican fusion menu for decent price. The food combos were nice, unexpected, but I was not so crazy about it. Filter coffee is included in the price. Great service & nice ambiance.

Mexican brunch is such a great niche, every single one of us loved our meals & drinks, the abuelita hot chocolate was DIVINE & even better with a shot of espresso. Prices seemed very fair for the portions & quality. The city has a lot of brunch spots that rely heavily on aesthetic but serve small portions or mediocre food, so it feels like a real gem to find a place which nails each aspect. The staff was great too, felt well taken care of & attended to.
I came here for brunch & it was absolutely fabulous. The server brought free samples of the smoothies for us to try. Everything was delicious & the price was very reasonable for the quality. 10/10
Alejandro is one of my go-to spot for solid brunch offerings where I can always count on authentic Mexican cuisine. The welcoming atmosphere, my friendly paisana 🇨🇴 who has always made sure my guests & I feel right at home, & true gems like the Oaxacan style hot chocolate are particularly decadent. Honestly, everything on the menu is delicious & I can't wait to visit them again during my next MTL adventure ❣️

The pictures on Google Maps got us really interested to go & visit. We had often seen the restaurant from the street yet never entered. Today we decided to visit & order our brunch. We were super delighted with the reception of coffee, fresh fruit, & the smoothie shooter that was an offer from the kitchen. The fruit was really fresh & delicious. We love that extra touch with our breakfast. The main meal was delicious, the only thing slightly disappointed was the slightly overcooked egg. We prefer our eggs Benedict to have a runny yolk. Perhaps we should've mentioned that when we ordered.. the service was good yet slightly slower near the end of the meal. Very nice decor inside & delicious quality food.
Our favorite brunch spot in Montreal. The food is delicious & the staff is extremely nice. Large portions with a blend of Mexican flavors. Highly recommend
Great little place for brunch if you want something different & not too crowded. Everything can be made vegetarian, & I love how they serve some cake, fruits, & a smoothie sampler before the meal!
Went for brunch with my wife & her parents. Awesome food & service! Lizzy & Pablo did a fantastic job with our service! I highly recommend this place. Small & cozy.

Belle petite découverte. Une cuisine super intéressante & gustative. Nous y sommes allés pour le Brunch & nous n'étions pas déçus. Malgré l'attente un peu longue, le service reçu était vraiment bon, on nous a fait patienter avec des dégustations. Rapport qualité prix excellent 👌 Je recommande fortement, autour si vous cherchez une expérience de brunch différente.
Brunch du dimanche midi, petit restaurant sans climatisation, mobilier rudimentaire & cuisine sympa, coloré, pas mauvaise, pas extraordinaire. Service simple, très simple
