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.

The coffee is watered down. The Americano did not taste fresh. It took 30 minutes to get 2 Americanos. Once we got the Americano arrived it was cold. Get a smoothie instead of coffee because you will be disappointed.

C'est un bon restaurant & la serveuse était vraiment adorable . Le temps d'attente est en revanche très long pour commander & recevoir la commande ..

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.

Beau, bon pas cher. Rien de mauvais a dire. Une mention spéciale au serveur, mercredi le 14 fevrier 2024, qui etait seul avec une salle bondée & qui a su assurer un service efficace
