We had a great breakfast (or brunch) here! The service was friendly & attentive, & the atmosphere was warm & welcoming. The taters were especially delicious - not sure what seasoning you use, but they were a standout. Portion sizes were just right, prices were very reasonable, & there's such a wide selection on the menu. All around, a great dining experience - we'll definitely be back!

Fantastic selection of brunch items, drinks, & other treats. Stopped by here while we waited for our train boarding time to hit. Love that the benny came with a side of fruit salad, really helped balance everything out. Coffee did taste a little watery but I came here for the food not the coffee. Everything was reasonably priced, & the wait staff was very attentive.
Has to be the best breakfast place I have ever eaten at. Food was amazing, good portion size & price was reasonable for what we had. The food was high quality. Service: No complaints, server did a good job & had no issues. Atmosphere, restaurant was elegant, I really appreciate when they have an open kitchen as well to be able to see the food prepared.
This is the best place for a delicious breakfast/brunch for a great price. There are so many wonderful options to choose from. & it's located close to the QE Fairmont we stayed at. The waitress for our first visit was Marie, this lady is amazing, so efficient, so friendly, does everything with a smile! The best I've ever seen!! This place is extremely busy & for good reason, we went around 11:30am & got seated within a couple of minutes but the waitresses are busy so it may take a bit to get your food/bill but well worth it. We went back the next day & Jen was really good as well. Definitely eat here!

We ate here with a group of seven, it was around 11 am on a Sunday. The waitress was not very friendly & the service was unfortunately not that good. We were optimistic but the food was average or below average at best, a bit on the pricey side for what it was. I would have to recommend looking elsewhere for breakfast/brunch.
We had breakfast there every morning during our 12 day stay in Montreal. Excellent food at reasonable prices but above everything the service was the best. Marie & the girls did an excellent job.
"Not my first time there & probably not my last"
As always, the service is pretty good & their lunch menu is well priced. It includes a soup or salad & dessert. The place is noy overcrowded & it is pretty clean. So overall very good
