Menu délicieux, ambiance conviviale & parfaite terrasse pour un lunch entre copines. On revient, c'est sûr !

I brought a client here for lunch & was incredibly disappointed. The salmon tartare is half quinoa. So despite being the most expensive plate on the menu at $32 it was a small portion of salmon mixed into quinoa. The chicken in the chicken salad was rubbery & had a strange texture & look to it. Almost looked like a thick cold cut rather than a fresh piece of grilled chicken (which it most definitely was not). It's unfortunate because the cafe is beautiful & the plates are pretty but food quality is really poor.

I guess it a lot has to do with it is the name, standard cafe layout somewhat limited menu & priced on the higher side. It was not my pick & wouldn't good back, $ 25 for lunch needs to be something much better than I had. Plate is well presented & as tasty. Cafe was quiet , service was mediocre, but that seemed to be our waiter.

A cozy café in Centropolis. Inventive food, great service & very friendly staff. The warm & elegant decor creating a pleasant atmosphere ideal to either go for lunch with fiends, family gathering or a Sunday "tête-à-tête" brunch. A tiny minus point is, there are too few items on the menu, lunch & brunch are similar, it doesn't take long for me to taste every items from the menu & go through several times before they change the menu.

Updated 2024-08 Food quality has gone down significantly since I last visited the establishment. Had the crab salad for lunch & I'd say it was probably one of the worst salads I've had in a restaurant. The vegetables were drenched in a bland & chalky dressing & the kale stems weren't completely removed which made it very difficult to eat. The crab cakes were burnt & very fishy. Quite disappointing for the price point. Service was fine & quite fast.

Endroit surévalué, je rêvais d'un dessert, il est arrivé dans l'assiette assez mal présenté, même un peu écrasé...pour le reste, un bon plat malgré les pains naan du commerce (assurément..) & bon café sans wow mais ok. Serveuse qui nous a pressé +++ pour commander alors que le resto était au 3/4 vide, on s'est senties vraiment sous pression. Pas super sympathique non plus. Après nous avoir stressées, on ne l'a plus revue & on s'est présentées au comptoir pour payer. Bref. 100$ pour 2 sans alcool pour luncher.

J'aime beaucoup votre restaurant mais 80$ pour un lunch pour 2 que 2 soupes & que 2 salades repas avec 2 cafés ,c'est dispendieux donc on y va moins souvent.
Bonne journée

Première visite. Avec l'aura frénésique qui entoure le nom de Ricardo, nous nous attendions à beaucoup mieux. Le menu très court & simplicime semble plus intéressant pour le brunch du weekend que pour un repas de semaine. Le dessert pot-de-chocolat fut très décevant pour une fan de chocolat. (la moitié du pot rempli de pop-corn & la mince couche de crème au chocolat dure & très sucrée. En gros, malgré que les fans de Ricardo vont sûrement aimé, je ne recommande pas pour un lunch de semaine, quoique le service fut sympa.

Service toujours impeccable, c'est notre endroit préféré è Laval pour notre lunch mensuel de filles & la nourriture est toujours délicieuse. Pour la première fois on s'est partagé un
le brownies choco-noisettes & on a dégusté chaque bouchée car ce brownies est tout simplement décadent, un des meilleurs que j'ai mangé!
