Excellente expérience au restaurant Alegando ! La nourriture était délicieuse, les portions étaient généreuses & le service était chaleureux & attentionné. L'ambiance est très agréable. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant & j'y retournerai avec plaisir.
Je recommande à 100 % ! C'est un super endroit pour déjeuner, je n'ai jamais été déçue. Le staff est vraiment adorable, la nourriture est délicieuse & très généreuse, & surtout ça change des déjeuners classiques. Une très belle découverte !
Great place for amazing brunch/breakfast. We came with a friend for a relaxed weekend brunch & ended up spending about four hours I suppose.
Food was great, very well presented & good portions. We went for an Omelette a la Poblana & Vegano. Both came with a fruit plate & a smoothie. Also ordered a coffee (refillable) & a dessert. Everything was absolutely amazing, except the sesame bread which was burnt from the bottom. Service was really great. Omelette a la Poblana absolutely recommended.
Definitely coming back & bringing more friends here.
I went for brunch time.
It was not a so busy day. Right away, I've been welcomed by the staff & could dive into a cosy ambiance, checking on the menu.
Service : All the time, the service was good, our waitress was paying attention to the table, servings lots of samples so we could feel cherished. Not too present, just what it needs so we know we are being taken care of.
Menu: the menu is really diverse, & prices are what you expect for a restaurant these days.
Food: the food was ok. That was the main downside for me. My fruits had been cut for a while, & did not look very fresh (my watermelon & mandarin were clearly dehydrated ahah). My friends had fresh fruits though. My dish was mainly sauce based, which was not to my taste. I could not differentiate the ingredients taste, or appreciate the blend. To me it was mainly sauce. I would not recommend the chilaquiles.
All in all I do not think I'll go back, but my friends are always going there so I guess you'll have to try :).
C'est la deuxième fois que j'y vais. Le restaurant est vraiment très bien. Le service est parfait, les quantités généreuses & les plats que j'ai pris, délicieux. Je recommande l'endroit à 100%
The service here was absolutely exceptional! The staff greeted us with a genuine, heartfelt smile that truly made us feel welcomed & valued. Her friendliness felt sincere, & it elevated our entire afternoon tea experience. I would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking not only delicious treats but also impeccable service.
Alejandro is a fantastic spot for brunch, offering a delicious menu with a vibrant Mexican twist. The Eggs Benedict with chipotle sauce was absolutely incredible-perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. The smoothies were not only refreshing but also packed with fresh, natural flavors. The service was exceptional; the staff were warm, attentive, & genuinely helpful. To top it off, the interior design is both stylish & cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a leisurely meal. Highly recommend this gem in Montreal!
