Review Summary

Beautys Luncheonette is a historic Montreal landmark known for its classic diner atmosphere, retro decor, and popular breakfast items like fluffy pancakes, bagels with lox, and the signature Mish Mash omelette. While many visitors praise the establishment for its nostalgic vibe, efficient service, and quality comfort food, opinions regarding value remain mixed, with some guests finding the prices high and portions inconsistent. The venue is frequently busy, often resulting in wait times and a fast-paced environment that occasionally leaves diners feeling rushed. Although the majority of guests enjoy the welcoming staff and iconic status of the restaurant, others have reported unprofessional interactions regarding tipping and concerns over the overall cost-to-value ratio.

Pire place ever, les serveuse oblige les clients à mettre 15% de tips même si le service était très bof. Overrated & trop cher. J'ai détesté mon expérience, boycotte.

Food was very mid. Only go here if you don't know how to cook & can't make a better breakfast than simple eggs, potatoes, a protein & toast/bagel.
Everything on my dish was missing flavour. The eggs had no browning on the bottom, no salt or other spices on my potatoes. It's very rare for me to add hot sauce to things so I can enjoy my food more.
I would have been happier if it was more affordable to justify the mediocrity of the plate but my dish was close to $20 & it went over that with tax & tip.
I only tried it cause it's a Montreal institution so I excepted the food to be better than what I got.

A Montreal institution. Good & tasty comfort food.

I hesitated writing a review about their service, but after reading that some customers were ALSO asked by the waiters to reconsider their tip, I felt compelled to add my own experience. I paid for my friend's orders & my own. Personally, it feels a little ridiculous to have paid over 60$ for what you see in the picture. The food was great! But the service wasn't impressive - simply average, yet the waitress had the audacity to ask for more in a condescending tone. We left another 7$ in cash to appease her, but I honestly should have kept it. Asking customers for more tips is classless. I'd consider going to another brunch place.

My boyfriend coming here for 50 years. I'm coming here for 5 years. However today was last time. Usually there is a line up, today lucky day no one in line. Two tables open by the window they repeatedly refusing to give to us. Did I mention no one in line. & we promised to turn over the table quickly.On a quiet Easter Monday. I hope it was worth it to lose a client over two empty table.

Service & nourriture correct, sans plus. Petites portions.

Les prix, eux, sont très élevés pour ce que c'est. Avec tant d'option à Montréal, je ne peux pas imaginer pourquoi revenir.

Good spot. It's a cute Jewish diner type vibe & the staff was very friendly. The milkshakes are AMAZING & our burgers were also great. Beauty's is a household name for a reason. Will say it was very expensive (80+ for 2 burgers & 2 milkshakes)

We go here often. Service is always great, food is simple & tasty. The place is small & you may have to wait, but we've never waited more than 15 minutes.
