Minchia bro pulling up to Cafe Milano is like taking a time machine back to Vanier College's N cafeteria where all my goombahs used to hang out! Gotta love it!

I have recently visited this cafe, lots of people there. The vibe is very good. People around until late mid night. The staff there are super friendly!
The café features a modern decor that beautifully showcases its rich history throughout the space. However, the ordering process could use some refinement; after placing your order at the counter, the staff walks around calling out names to locate customers, which can feel a bit disorganized. The environment might be a bit noisy for some; it's an ideal spot for sports enthusiasts with televisions strategically placed around the venue, adding to the energetic vibe. The coffee & food are both of good quality, making it a worthwhile visit for a casual outing.
Correct comme salade . J'ai demandé une salade sans piment & ils ont quand même mit . J'ai prit une 2ieme au bonconccini & jai eu 5 seulement ca passe . Les caissier son jeune & me connaissent pas encore le service a la clientèle je crois . Malheureusement j'habite a 30 Min & je me rend compte de tout ca a la maison. ... & c'est une salade qui va a la poubelle car la personne ne mange pas piquant.
Went for lunch today, ordering process took a while, I guess it was noisy. I was with 2 friends, we ordered our sandwiches, fries & they ordered coffee & desserts. We sat outside in the terrace. Within 5 minutes my friends' coffee & desserts arrived, odd? Within 15 minutes our sandwiches & drinks arrived, but no fries - we mentioned it to the server who said "no problem, coming soon" . We waited close to 20 minutes & asked another server for the fries (our sandwiches were eaten), server went inside, then back to us & said we didn't pay for them, but they will be out soon & we would need to pay inside. We waited another 15 minutes & my friend went inside to ask why we were waiting - seems my friend had to pay before being served the fries. Bottom line, the food was very good, service was friendly, but they seem to be a little dis-organized - Our 30 minute lunch break turned into over an hour. BTW, we arrived near 1:30 PM. Yes, I will go back, but I will be very specific when ordering! LOL. :)
