We recently tried this new breakfast restaurant & were impressed with the clean, bright & bold surroundings. The service was very friendly & fast. The food was well prepared & beautifully presented. I chose one of their eggs benedict plates & like the majority of restaurants, the hollandaise sauce was a little weak in the butter department. It was refreshing to have GOOD COFFEE, which strangely seems to be a rarity in Montreal breakfast restaurants.

However....
After choosing our meals, the waitress pleasantly asked if I would like cheddar cheese, swiss cheese or both on my potatoes.... I thought wow, that's a nice idea, & chose the cheddar.... if I had known I was going to be charged an additional $2.50 for some melted cheese mixed in to my potatoes (hardly tasted any cheese at all), I would have definitely refused. Although I understand you get what you pay for....I still find over $40 for breakfasr for 2 a little high.

All in all a pleasant experience if you disregard the surprise surcharges, & I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

UPDATE:
Unfortunately like many restaurants that become popular quickly, the quality & consistancy start to suffer. The last 2 visits will probably be my last. Food was served cold (undercooked & cold bacon & cold slimy eggs). Noisy, slow service, packed & food is just average (when it's cooked) & expensive when compared to other breakfast spots in & around Montreal.
