Nice place, good food but expect the bite of high prices. I got an avocado toast, with 1 egg & thin slice of smoked salmon with a side of potatoes, no coffee or alcohol & I paid (for one person) +$50 tips included. Portions are fairly small if you were wondering but the food is good.
For gluten or lactose intolerance they have very little option, meaning 1 that had no cheese on it, the avocado toast. My friends paid around the same but general consensus … & again food & the quality of the ingredients was also good.
The food was AMAZING!!! I can't stop thinking about it. I got the pancakes, fries & salami sandwich. It was so heavenly. When I tell you the fries was so soft & the inside & crispy on the outside, literal perfection! Everything was great.
The only downside was the service, it was quite busy that day & there wasn't enough waitresses so we had to wait a while to order & ask for the bill.

J'ai bien aimé la nourriture mais accueil horrible - l'hôtesse pas aimable du tout, l'attente de la nourriture assez longue & un café filtre à 4.75$ c'est trop cher ( le barista était absent ) dans ce cas ajustés les prix en conséquence. C'est mieux de réserver sinon vous recevez un traitement pas très appréciable ;)
The cottage cheese pancakes might honestly be the best pancakes I've ever had in my life light, fluffy & absolutely unforgettable. We also tried the deluxe breakfast sandwich, the latkes & the babka & every single bite was outstanding.
The service was warm, quick & genuinely friendly. & the atmosphere at Le Cathcart especially with that beautiful natural winter light pouring in makes the whole experience even more special. It's the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit.
I loved the fact that you can make a reservation & that there's parking at the mall. However, the food quality isn't the same as at the original location. The pancakes were good, but much smaller than usual. It feels that it doesn't worth the price.
Arthur's sandwich was tasty, but the tons of butter on the bread made it heavier.

C'est ma première fois à ce restaurant. C'était vraiment bon, mais trop cher pour un déjeuner. Ma fille n'a pas du tout apprécié le restaurant. Rien vraiment pour elle. Restaurant où nous pouvons amener un enfant mais pas de menu pour eux. Cela nous a coûté 91$ avant pourboire pour 3 personnes. De plus sur la machine pour payer offre en premier un pourboire de 18% mais sur le montant avec les taxes. Oui tu as l'option d'entrer toi même le montant en pourcentage ou en argent, mais avec la serveuse qui regarde ce que tu fais c'est pas mal gênant d'entrer toi-même un autre montant.
