The best breakfast in Montreal. The breakfast sandwich is out of this world. The pickles, crispy onions, & sour cream on it are such a unique addition. The coffee was also great. We were also blown away by the poutine knish & latkes. Super cool space as well, so cute.

I had this spot saved on my'places to try' list for a while, & finally made it there, & I'm so glad I did.

From the outside, it's absolutely charming. The green exterior & terrasse give it such a fresh, inviting vibe. Walking in, the space opens up into a bright, open-concept layout. There's a really cool seating area that feels more like a stylish lounge than a typical restaurant, & right in front, the kitchen is fully visible. I loved that you can see everything being prepared.

The service was just as impressive as the space. Everyone was warm & polite, & the owner even came by to say hello & helped clear our plates, which added a really personal touch.

I ordered the BLC, & it was amazing. The smoked salmon was incredibly fresh, with none of that overly'fishy' smell you sometimes get. The quality really stood out, & I finished my plate in minutes.

Overall, a great experience. I'd definitely recommend it, & I'll absolutely be coming back.

Stopped by on the fly during the Passover period & just had a quick bite. The over is supper passionate & his family lineage goes back to the Rubiner Inn in Saint Agath.

Atmosphere. Lovely, clean, cool wall decoration & the open kitchen gives confidence in the kitchen staff & cleanliness.

Service. Pretty good even when busy.

Food. Delicious.

So we didn't eat much, but we saw & smelled other tables foods & asked a lot of questions.

Passover latke was fantastic. I compare it to by grandmothers potato kugel. Only issue is it was reheated & not warmed properly all the way through. Taste & texture were spot on & price was decent.

The Matza Brie with maple syrup was perfectly done & would eat it all year round.

Other tables feedback.

Every dish other people ate consistently one after another was'amazing, delicious, gonna come back again & tell friends'. This was from at least 20 plus people.
The food is not gourmet & not quite a deli. It's kind of a mini Brown Derby blended with a Murray's diner with a bubba & zayde influence. It's warm comfort food from the Eastern European influence.

Does not matter what your background is, this is a cultural expertise both in food & also speaking with the owner & his dad who seems to hang around a lot - & happily so as he's a mench like his son, seen in one of the photos.

So will I return. Yes, if I'm in the area I will certainly come for a bit to eat & tell friends.

Love this place wholeheartedly. I come here for a quick bites, on lunch dates, to catch up with friends, to work on uni projects, & most importantly for the date squares. Anytime I get asked for lox bagels recommendations in the city, I always plug Chez Greenberg. The staff is super nice, the food is always great, & the playlist is on point! True gem in the mile end:)

Great overall dining experience. Chez Greenberg offers a really nice balance between quality food & a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The menu is well thought out, with flavorful dishes that feel fresh & carefully prepared, & you can tell attention is given to both taste & presentation. The portions are satisfying without being overwhelming, & the pricing feels fair for the level of quality you get. The staff are friendly & attentive, creating a comfortable environment from the moment you walk in, although service can slow down slightly during busier times. The space itself is clean, cozy, & enjoyable for both casual meals & small gatherings. Overall, a solid spot with great food & a good vibe, definitely worth trying if you're in the area.

The Seder meal for 6 people was outstanding! The organization of the food required, the freshness & the quality of the food was exceptional. They provided everything required including a Seder Plate! The highlights were the hand grated horseradish, the vegan chopped liver with fried onions, the coleslaw, the delicious baked salmon, the yummy mushroom cutlets, & the home grown karpaS salad. Bravo! A job well done.

Chez Greenberg… listen.

This place doesn't mess around.

I went in hungry, came out questioning my entire standard for comfort food.

The smoked salmon plate? Clean, salty, silky like it just came out of someone's grandmother's kitchen who doesn't tolerate nonsense.

Then the knish poutine… WHAT are we doing here in the best way possible. Crispy, soft, like a warm hug. It's chaotic, it's rich, it works.

Latke? Crunch on the outside, soft inside, exactly how it should be. No shortcuts.

& the soup… simple, honest, & hits you right in the chest. That'slow down for a second' kind of good.

This place feels real. No gimmicks. Just people who know what they're doing & care about it.

10/10. I'll be back, probably too often.
