Review Summary

Ben & Florentine generally receives positive feedback for its delicious, fresh, and generously portioned brunch offerings, with many guests praising the menu variety and consistent food quality. While the service is frequently described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, some patrons report occasional delays, inattentiveness, or issues with atmosphere such as noise levels and temperature control. Opinions on value are mixed, as some customers find the pricing fair for the quality provided, whereas others express concerns regarding the cost of substitutions and wait times. Although cleanliness and hygiene are highlighted as strengths by many, isolated concerns regarding presentation details have been noted, yet the overall sentiment remains highly favorable with many regulars returning for the consistent experience.

The food is below basic. The eggs have zero taste. The potatoes are average. The crêpe was like a stale supermarket crêpe & the bananas inside it were old & super mushy. The applesauce is very sour. Extremely bad value for money!

I was there this morning & I'm absolutely blown away by the horrible service & food. first off; I had to wait to get to a table when there was no one, I'm talking 1 or two tables max. The service was very slow & my mom had to go up to our waiter & ask for our drinks after having waited 15 minutes (not for anything extreme mind you, I had a hot chocolate & she had a coffee). I ordered an eggs benedict with avocado & the avocado was absolutely disgusting & borderline rotten. I had to take off all of the avocado to even eat the thing. I'm ashamed that this restaurant is situated on the same island I live on & I'm surprised you're not shut down by the sheer lack of hygiene here. I would usually call this a problem of short staff but there were so many people laughing with the chefs in the back. Disgusting behaviour.

We enjoyed our relaxing brunch at this comfortable restaurant in Nun's island. Good taste, good service with good view. The eggs were cooked to perfection. The location is convenient with enough parking lot.

This place has amazing choices! I went for brunch, & I really liked it! I'm into bittersweet flavors, so the plate with apple toast & an English muffin with egg was perfect. The service was great-fast, warm food, & it's not too pricey compared to other spots. Overall, a solid choice for brunch! Just one note: I is a bit tricky to choose a fully plant-based option here.

This place is awesome for brunch on Nun's Island! The vibe is super chill, & they serve big portions that taste amazing. The staff is friendly & makes you feel welcome. We customized our order with egg whites & extra eggs, & it was served up to our expectations. The salmon & avocado mix combination brunch item was bomb. The restaurant has this cool glass & sunroof terrace, which is perfect for dining in the winter. The menu items are decently priced. Totally recommend & we will visit again.

Picture a perfectly poached egg nestled atop a bed of creamy avocado slices & toasted whole-grain bread, garnished with a sprinkle of smoked paprika & freshly ground black pepper.
