Beautys Luncheonette est une institution montréalaise historique reconnue pour son ambiance de diner classique, son décor rétro et ses déjeuners populaires tels que les crêpes moelleuses, les bagels au saumon fumé et l'omelette Mish Mash. Bien que de nombreux visiteurs louent l'établissement pour son atmosphère nostalgique, son service efficace et la qualité de ses plats réconfortants, les avis sur le rapport qualité-prix restent partagés, certains clients trouvant les prix élevés et les portions inégales. L'endroit est très fréquenté, ce qui entraîne souvent des temps d'attente et un rythme soutenu donnant parfois aux clients l'impression d'être pressés. Si la majorité apprécie le personnel accueillant et le statut emblématique du restaurant, d'autres ont fait état d'interactions peu professionnelles concernant les pourboires et ont exprimé des réserves sur le rapport coût-valeur global.
Beautys is a classic (Since 1942) bustling diner with amazing food, friendly atmosphere, & attentive service (four refills of their perfect coffee & I have enough energy to take on the day).
But Beautys is not your run-of-the-mill, run-down diner; conversely, it's run like a well-oiled breakfast machine brimming with a bright personality, menu diversity (breakfast + lunch options!), & delicious flavors! The prices are not cheap, but they are fair & worth it, as the quality is top-notch.
The decor is clean, modern, & pristine.
I got the big breakfast platter with potatoes, 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, bagel, & both bacon & sausage. I added some 100 percent maple & it was worth it. The pancakes are buttery & crispy, thick too; just perfect!
I even broke a hot sauce bottle on accident (sorry!) & it was not an issue at all as they said'it happens', & swiftly cleaned it up.
Highly recommend the vodka orange juice, as they fresh squeeze the OJ daily. Super yummy!
They have a modern decor but feels like a classic diner (is literally is), have good counter space for solo diners or if it's too busy you can eat there, a variety of tables bplus big ones for 3-6 people (perfect for b-day celebration or a small party).
Beautys is usually very busy (packed) so be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes or sometimes longer. Luckily my wife & I came when there was a free table so we didn't have to wait. Service is fast-paced, friendly, & it's a generally good vibe!
Beautys: fresh, modern, quaint, hip; classic diner experience with the best service around. 5 stars.
My wife & I will definitely be back soon.

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.
I was really surprised with my experience here at beauty's. I was really excited to visit since it's a household name in Montreal however the quality of their food & service was not reflective of their reputation. I'm surprised a basically meal was super expensive with nothing special on it. Second my friend got the gravlax sandwich with one piece of salmon & 3 tomato pieces to make the sandwich appear thicker. When I asked our waitress for my eggs over easy & well done yolks she gave me a face & came back with runny yolks. I will say tho the restaurant it self was well decorated with a nostalgic vibe. But I would look at other breakfast restaurants to try.

I was unfortunately underwhelmed by my visit. The food quality itself was acceptable, but the portions did not justify the price. My salmon bagel sandwich had very little salmon - it seemed bulked up with tomatoes to create the appearance of a fuller filling. Similarly, the egg sandwich contained what felt like half an egg, overloaded with cheese & bacon, which made it heavy but not satisfying.
What impacted the experience most was the service. As soon as we finished eating, we were asked to pay & leave because it's a fast-service breakfast spot. We politely asked if we could stay a little longer, but the response was unfriendly & we were told we needed to leave soon - despite there being open tables & no lineup.
Overall, it felt rushed & disappointing. With better portion balance & a more welcoming approach to guests, the experience could be much improved. My friends & I will not be returning to this place.
I ordered a sandwich called the BML (Beauty's something… if I remember correctly) from the brunch menu. It was a very basic sandwich: one slice of Kraft cheese, an egg, bacon, tomato, & mayo, served on grilled bread. No side dish.
It cost the same price as my colleagues' full brunch plates, which included pancakes, bacon, egg, potatoes , a bagel & more.
I'm not saying the restaurant is bad overall - my friends seemed to really enjoy their meals. However, I strongly discourage ordering this particular dish. Paying $25 (tax, tip in) for what is essentially a $10 sandwich felt like a rip-off, & I was extremely disappointed.
The dish itself could easily be improved, but in its current form, it completely took away my desire to return. I didn't recommend the restaurant to my friends because of this experience.
The restaurant should seriously reconsider the portion size & value of this item. It doesn't make sense to charge the same price for a very plain sandwich as for a full, well-garnished brunch plate.
Modern, diner vibe. Service was very friendly & attentive. Very interesting venue. No eggs benny here if that's your thing but I thoroughly enjoyed the Paysanne omelet. Packed to the brim with ingredients. Bacon, potato, cheese & parsley. Very delicious. Home fries had a good texture. Not super crispy like they were deep fried but just a hint char from the flat top possibly. The Omelette was huge & well worth the value. We decided last minute to try to go early, get a walk in without resos & got lucky. From the sounds of it, they'll try to squeeze you in if they're full but probably a safer bet to reserve ahead of time. Thanks for the experience. Will definitely come again.
Just got back with my husband from Montreal & all I can think about is our experience at Beauty's TWICE! First, let me mention we were able to meet & talk with Elana, the granddaughter of the original owners & then we met her dad, Larry. To say we were charmed would be an understatement. They couldn't have been more gracious, down to earth & charming. We had so much in common, it was fun getting to know them! Oh…the food?? First rate & I'm from the NYC area. Both of us had the lox, eggs & onions aka LEO. I can tell you I've had them at The Rascal House, Nate & Al's & Katz's deli & trust me when I say there is no comparison. The eggs were perfect, the onions perfectly caramelized & the lox plentiful. In addition you get a St Viateur bagel & IYKYK…the bacon & home fries were swoon worthy. I can't recommend Beauty's enough. I'm dreaming of my next visit! Thanks again Elana for the wonderful experience!!
I really liked this place from the traditional chains I normally go to. It has a home feel, our waiter was super nice, like really nice. We ordered a spinach omelet, 2 eggs, sausage, & a side of blueberry pancakes. Let me tell you, the omelet was outstanding with great flavor & the pancakes, wow hands down so tasty with 10/10 flavor of blueberries. Guaranteed you won't find that any loco chains. Just based on those 2 dishes, we can not wait to go back!
Just a great Montreal diner/institution. Service is super friendly & always with a smile. Get the mish-mash, comes with a st Viateur Bagel. It's a scrambled egg mashup with onions, salami, & hot dogs - paired with potatoes. The orange juice is fresh squeezed too! Lots of photos on the walls of famous people who have been there. Just a great experience!
What a throwback to the 50's You would think Marty McFly would walk in anytime .. arriving from the future !! Amazing diner with great American Style food !! The pancakes were great .. especially if you order them with the specially made maple syrup. Loved it ! The eggs & sausage with the potatoes were amazing too. I would probably liked a slightly larger option. But overall they were yummmy. This is a nice place for anyone visiting or living in Montreal. Plenty of food options & like the "all beef" bacon & sausage . My choice 💋👌🏼
