Café Souvenir, is one of my favorite places to visit since the early 90's. In the heart of beautiful Outremont, this little, but quaint spot mimics places you would see in Paris. Over the years the restaurant has gone through some amazing renovations & in its current state, it's even more charming than before.

Staff was super polite, spoke both English & French. They checked in on us many times during our visit & lunch, to make sure everything was perfect.

The food I rated it as a 4.5 star. There was nothing wrong with it, but if I had to nitpick, I would say the bacon was dry, but edible. Still, almost a 5 stars, so not the end of the world because of the bacon.

The restaurant was very clean, tidy with things in place like they should be. Bathrooms, that can make or break a resto, was surely not a problem here. Although tiny, it was immaculately clean, so 10 out of 10 for that!

Their menu is not vast, but for a small place it's just perfect. They do serve beer, but no wine, from what I could see but I could be wrong. Another thing that they did not serve is dessert. Not sure why, but nevertheless, in & around Cafe Souvenir, you can find places easily for the sweet tooth in you.

Finally, a shout out to our server Giulia, more than just a pretty name, Giulia's service was top notch. She engages with her clients, much more than many other places we've been where the servers can't even acknowledge our existence! LOL!!

Great job everyone, keep up the world class service!!

Visited Cafe Souvenir on a Sunday afternoon. Had a fantastic experience.

The restaurant itself is cozy, which provides for a very pleasant, intimate atmosphere. The restaurant is very clean & well decorated. There is also a terrace that opens onto a pedestrian-only street in the summer months. While I sat inside, the terrace would be a great option for many.

I tried the fish, french fries, beer, coffee, & dessert (I was hungry). It was all very well prepared. I'd definitely recommend everything I tried.

The staff was excellent. I was served by Isabela. She provided quick & professional service, & was a pleasure to talk to. She contributed very positively to the experience.

I went in for coffee, a main course, & dessert, & everything was spectacular. From the warm welcome & excellent service to the delicious food, the dessert was fresh & perfectly balanced in flavors & textures, as was the main course. I loved it! The place is beautiful, cozy, clean, & pleasant. I'll definitely be back! Thank you & congratulations! 100% recommended 👏
