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.

Il y avait un cheveu noir dans mon plat dans les légumes & le fromage. Mon plat était pour emporter. J'ai appelé pour leur dire & je me suis fait répondre de façon cavalière. Impossible un service comme ça! Je ne comprends pas pourquoi l'employée n'a pas pu me répondre avec courtoisie surtout que j'ai été très affable…
J'ai jeté mon plat.

J'ai commandé l'assiette « Ça croustille » & le pain doré servi ne correspondait pas à la photo présentée au menu, tant au niveau de la présentation que de l'aspect. La différence était assez évidente.

L'expérience était correcte, mais décevante par rapport aux attentes créées par le menu.

We ate here Saturday morning & the food was delicious. The churro bites were a fun & crispy addition. Eggs were cooked perfectly, & the seasoning on the home fries was really good (they taste exactly like OEB's wedges if you've been there). The apple sauce tastes like it was made in-house, it was warm & a little more tart than you would find in a grocery store which is right up my alley. The place was packed so it took a little bit for our food to arrive but it was hot & fresh. Would definitely return.
