I've been to this restaurant twice & I want so desperately to like it, but it always just misses the mark for me. The first time, I tried their Ricotta Pancakes, not realizing the seasonal fruits are an extra charge! Overall, the pancakes were okay, but not as amazing as I expected them to be. Bacon is another extra charge & tasteless, which made for $7 down the drain. I also arrived as soon as they opened at 10am on the weekend & there was a bit of a wait, with a line out the door. The second time I went, I tried the Endless Summer Breakfast, which I enjoyed more than the pancakes. The seasoning on the avocado was absolutely delicious. The toast was a bit too hard for my liking, but the rest of the plate was lovely. This time, on a weekday around noon, there was no line. Both times, the wait to receive food after ordering was about 15 minutes long, enough time to chat but a bit too long for my tastes. Dandy is pricey, no doubt about it. If you want food & a drink each, you're looking about an $80 bill for two people.

The ricotta pancakes with strawberry were absolutely delicious - light, fluffy, & bursting with flavor. They were definitely the highlight of my meal. The mushroom toast & crispy smashed potatoes were also quite good, though I'd say they were more in the average range compared to the pancakes.

The ricotta pancakes are easily one of the best that I've ever had! The other things we ordered, especially the matcha pistachio cocktail were great too. It's always busy so expect a little bit of wait which is totally worth it.

Had the ricotta pancakes - server recommended the rhubarb jam instead & it did not disappoint!

Breakfast @ Dandy !! I loved the vibes. Makes you feel you're in Italy somehow ! There was a 10 min wait, but that did not bother me. The staff were very nice & knowledgeable with the menu. I had the Ricotta Pancakes with the lemon butter. They come in a stack of 3 in a pool of maple syrup. It did not have the "wow" effect for me. I guess I am not a big fan of the zesty flavor or the added Ricotta. It took away from the original taste & flakiness of the pancake. They were good but different. Good choice for breakfast or lunch.

We celebrated Mother's Day with a delightful brunch at this restaurant, choosing from a spread that included Mushroom Toast, Ricotta Pancakes, & the Endless Summer Breakfast, with extra Crispy Bacon ordered at an additional cost. Each dish was beautifully prepared, & the uniquely unsalty, beef jerky-like bacon, though pricier, was definitely worth trying. The quality of the food & the warm, friendly service from the staff made our special day even more enjoyable.

Notre premier petit déjeuner à Montréal & c'était très bon ! Nous avons eu un peu de queue en arrivant mais nous avons dû patienter 20 min tout au plus. Accueil chaleureux & plat savoureux. On sent que tous les produits sont de qualité & c'est agréable. On a particulièrement apprécié les pancakes à la ricotta qui étaient accompagné d'un sirop d'érable très bon. Sans contest, ils sont rentrés dans notre top 5 des pancakes qu'on a mangé en Amérique du Nord !

A beautiful spot! I've been here a few times & my favorite items are the super yummy salad, the ricotta pancakes, & the mushroom toast. This place is a must visit in Old Montreal.
