I went to Café Gentile (for the first time) for brunch & had the Grand Slam. Based on pictures of other reviews, I now know that the components of my plate were definitely underdone. Everything was edible, but lukewarm, & very dry. The waitress asked if everything was to our liking, but she was unable to tell me if the plate was as it should be, or if the sausages were meant to be dry... Maybe it was an off day in the kitchen, but at this price point, I expect better quality control. Though I left disappointed, the restaurant decor was nice & I could see it being a cute date spot. I might give it another try for lunch or dinner in the future.View more
Tucked into Westmount like a cherished heirloom, Cafe Gentile served up a Mother's Day brunch that felt more like a warm hug from someone who smells faintly of espresso & nostalgia.
From the moment we walked in, the ambiance charmed us-banquettes like Nonna's living room sofas, tables dressed in soft green marble, & the comforting chaos of a bustling café filled with families, laughter, & that beautiful din of clinking plates & happy forks. It didn't feel like a restaurant; it felt like home, if your home had professional chefs & an endless supply of pistachios.
My husband's meal was a journey in texture & decadence:
A beet salad that was earthy & fresh,
Followed by indulgent French toast paired with bacon, a rich veal sausage crowned with a sunny-side egg,
& a final act of showy genius-a brioche stuffed with pistachio gelato & finished with pistachio crumb. I briefly considered tackling him for a bite.
I started with delicate smoked salmon avocado crostini, perfectly balanced & bright. Then came the Lobster Benedetto-a lavish, buttery twist on the classic Benedict. I closed with a thick, fluffy pancake, floating in a sweet, lightly creamy sauce that I may or may not have considered licking off the plate. (It was Mother's Day. I get a pass.)
Service was friendly & well-timed-no hovering, no disappearing acts. Just the kind of smooth professionalism that lets you actually enjoy the food & the moment.
Cafe Gentile doesn't just feed you-it envelops you in Italian comfort, sprinkles pistachios on your emotions, & sends you home blissfully full. Five stars, & one extra perfectly drawn espresso in my heart.View more
110% top notch experience 👌🏼💪🏻🙏🏼 with bonus points
First of all the staff are all A1! Great service from start to finish. The hosts, servers, management are all super polite, friendly, hospitable & helpful.
They work like a synchronized Olympic serving team without being pushy or in your face.
Can't sing enough praise for the staff!
The food?
Freaking fantastic always!
Their pastas, pizzas & apparently brunch (we went for the Mother's Day brunch special today) is all stellar & authentic.
Today we had a lobster, egg, hollandaise deliciousness
& a boogie take on a bacon, sausage, egg, French toast plate that was mind blowing.
The starters were delicious as well
A beat salad & smoked salmon, avocado toast
Will be back again & again for this fantastic experience
Good job guys! 👌🏼🫶🏼💪🏻🙏🏼View more
