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.
What a find! Creative menu full of well balanced flavours. They bring a little sample of their delicious nut loaf & a little shooter glass of a smoothie. The coffee is actually good too! The portions are very generous & the presentation thoughtful. Everything can be made vegetarian, just ask! They will sub in vegan chorizo or shredded shiitake "meat". This is where my only small complaint comes in - they accidentally served me chicken. It wasn't a big deal to me but I know some people might've been distressed. The charming & efficient waitstaff were very apologetic & fixed it right away.
Such a great find! So good I forgot to take a picture until we were halfway through our meals. We came to Montreal for a weekend trip from NY. Our Airbnb was a two min walk from this place. Everything was fresh & delicious, beyond reasonable pricing & just excellent. I got the fresh toast & El Nopal smoothie which was refreshing & exactly what I needed. The fresh toast was so perfectly balance you didn't even need the maple syrup! The walnut cream & fresh fruit was complement enough. My husband got the Végon & his avocado toast with mango was so fresh, the mango was a dream! Coffee was smooth & delicious & the complementary bread that was served with the coffee was a perfect appetizer. Service was kind & welcoming, highly recommend for a fresh, healthy & delicious meal. We came around 9 AM on a Saturday & were the only diners in there. I suspect it gets busier later in the day but we are early risers & we're delighted to be able to get in without any wait. Don't miss this place!
I ordered a meal about 5 minutes after opening, & took about 30-40 minutes to get my food. A table of 2 ordered about 15-20 minutes after me, & had their food within minutes of me. As for the food itself, the fresh fruit & smoothie were good. Coffee was alright, nothing to write home about. All of my food for the main entree were either barely lukewarm, or simply cold. I might be more understanding if it were busy, but there were only 2 other people dining. Waited about 15 more minutes to pay & leave, only after getting up to directly ask to pay. Pretty terrible experience, unfortunately. Can't say I recommend it.
J'ai adoré ! C'est sûr je reviens là. Là nourriture est excellente & différente. Le service est tout aussi bon. Beaucoup de nourriture pour un prix très raisonnable.
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
Nice place to have brunch with family or friends. There is a fusion cuisine of Mexican food & American brunch. Fruits are fresh & the nopal juice is just delicious. I really enjoyed my time there. Customer service is awesome. There were very friendly & constantly offer us delicious coffee.
