Dandy fonctionne comme un bistrot sophistiqué qui souligne l'intersection entre les techniques culinaires artisanales et les ingrédients issus du marché. La conception intérieure reflète une esthétique industrielle caractérisée par de hauts plafonds et de grandes fenêtres qui illuminent la salle à manger ouverte. Les offres du menu se concentrent sur des plats classiques élevés, présentant des tartines de pain au levain garnies de produits saisonniers et de ricotta maison. La cuisine utilise systématiquement des composants frais et locaux pour construire des assiettes équilibrées qui privilégient la simplicité structurelle plutôt qu'une présentation complexe. Les clients profitent d'une atmosphère animée où l'accent reste strictement mis sur la qualité de la nourriture préparée et la fonctionnalité de l'espace de travail. Cet établissement équilibre la nature décontractée d'un café inspiré du marché avec la précision technique d'une cuisine de bistrot ciblée.
Dandy est une destination de brunch prisée dans le Vieux-Montréal, reconnue pour son ambiance animée et ses célèbres pancakes à la ricotta, que de nombreux clients considèrent comme le point fort de leur visite. Bien que le restaurant attire fréquemment de longues files d'attente, les convives estiment souvent que l'expérience en vaut la peine grâce à un menu frais et savoureux, incluant des plats comme le sandwich au poulet frit et le déjeuner d'été. Le service est largement décrit comme étant chaleureux, efficace et attentionné, bien que certains clients soulignent que l'endroit peut être bruyant et l'espace entre les tables un peu restreint. Malgré quelques critiques concernant les prix ou les portions, le consensus général souligne une expérience culinaire de qualité qui incite les visiteurs à y retourner lors de leurs prochains séjours en ville.
Food was okay. I got charged 7 dollars for 4 small slices of bacon as a side despite saying no to bacon when ordering. 7 dollars for a hot latte which I thought was cold given the price & when I asked the waiter for no ice for my drink, they did not correct me & tell me it was hot. But the vibe & decor there are very pleasant. The meal was not worth the price tho.
On comprend la file d'attente! Restaurant de brunch populaire, c'est branché, c'est beau, il y a un menu simple & efficace. Le sandwich au poulet frit est hyper bien balancé, l'assiette déjeuner avec une salade & une toast montée d'un demi-avocat & d'un oeuf est plus équilibrée pour un repas santé. Je recommande de partager même si ce n'est pas le concept juste pour goûter à plus de choses (sandwich poulet frit miam mais j'aime bien plus) Ce n'est pas donné, mais acceptable pour la qualité & l'emplacement Vieux-Port, pour les plats principaux du moins (~25$) puisque le reste semble typiquement inflation en restauration (6.99$ pour extra 3 tranches bacon(!), ou comme partout similaire, des boissons à 7$ ou cocktail 15$).
Fantastic brunch, very attentive service despite being a very busy spot.Thoroughly enjoyed the food & a very cool vibe. Summer breakfast with avocado & bacon was very much on point.

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 $80 bill for two people.
Menu restreint mais c correct ça veut dire c pas de la cuisine micro ondes. Service un peu lent mais c'était bondè. Propre, courtois, décor correct, nourriture bien. C assez dispendieux 80$ deux petits déjeuners mais j'avais pris une bière. Mais un les extra bacon 6$ pour 3 tranches de bacon...
I got the chicken sandwhich with egg on top & a side of bacon & smashed fingerling potatoes. The bacon was OK, & maybe not worth the extra cost. The potatoes were great. The chicken sandwhich was fantastic. Sunday morning branch, got there around 1030, waited about 45 minutes in line. Was it worth it? Yeah, I think so.
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.
This place was extremely hyped up by a friend & so maybe expectations were set too high but Dandy's was just okay. Nothing extraordinary but still good. We've tried for Dandy's a few times but never went in because of the line, but with the rainy weather, we got in pretty quick. Got there for 10:30, got seated around 11. Menu is pretty limited. Prices are a bit extreme ($6.99 for 3 slices of bacon is kind of insane). Would recommend the potatoes. We felt like if there's a super long line, the food should've been better than what it was.
With the line we had to wait in before getting in, the hype around Dandy made me excited for what was to come. I ordered the Buttermilk Fried Chicken & accompanied that with a Mimosa. I really enjoyed the Buttermilk Burger, the bun was soft & the chicken was full of juice & flavour, my only gripe was that the bacon that i had as a side was dry & brittle. The Mimosas were pretty good as well. The day I was there the place was very packed but the service was still good, but not great, because we had a bit of a wait time. The atmosphere is nothing to write home about, during my time there, the place felt crowded & small.But this place would be a nice spot to go on a Sunday Morning for brunch.
