Review Summary

Ben & Florentine is widely recognized as a popular downtown destination for breakfast and brunch, frequently praised for its generous portions, fresh ingredients, and varied menu options. While a vast majority of patrons highlight the exceptional, friendly, and hardworking nature of the service staff, some visitors have noted that the restaurant can become quite crowded, leading to potential wait times or an occasionally rushed atmosphere. Most guests appreciate the overall value and consistent quality of the food, particularly the egg benedicts, pancakes, and creative additions like churros, though experiences regarding service speed and dining pace can occasionally fluctuate depending on how busy the venue is.

Went for brunch & got some eggs Benedict with avocado. They were really good but one was a little overcooked. Other than that it was a really good brunch place! Really fast service too.

Meh. The third time wasn't a charm. Must have been a morning the other waitresses didn't show up.

This was our second time coming here for brunch. The food was delicious, visually attractive & colorful. Our server was polite & courteous. The only negative was that although there were a good number of empty (but not cleared off) tables, we were kept standing by the entrance, waiting to be seated for about twenty minutes without even a welcoming greeting. It was obvious that they were very short-staffed today, since we didn't have any issues with prompt service on our earlier visit.

Coffee could be stronger & the cheese on the skillet was a bit clumped together. Crepe was AMAZING & Matcha & Coco smoothie was super tasty.
Service was friendly & welcoming in the official language of our choice.

La nourriture est correct, le service est très bon & c'est abordable. Je recommande pour les déjeuners en groupe ou seul/accompagné.
