Les avis sur Dandy dessinent globalement une expérience de brunch très positive, avec des portions généreuses et des plats vedettes comme les pancakes ricotta et le fried chicken sandwich qui impressionnent souvent par leur goût et leur présentation, le tout dans un cadre moderne et chaleureux. L’ambiance est appréciée mais peut être bruyante et très fréquentée les week-ends, avec des files d’attente longues et un rythme parfois rapide qui ne convient pas à tout le monde. Le service est majoritairement efficace et attentionné, avec des serveurs remarquables qui savent mettre à l’aise les clients et accélérer le service quand c’est possible. Le rapport qualité-prix fait débat: certains trouvent les prix élevés pour la localisation et la taille des portions, tandis que d’autres estiment la qualité et la fraîcheur des ingrédients justifier le coût. Dans l’ensemble, Dandy reste une destination de choix pour un brunch satisfaisant, en particulier pour les pancakes et les plats signature, tout en sachant que l’expérience peut varier selon l’affluence et les attentes en matière d’ambiance et de menu.
Awesome brunch spot in Montreal... would definitely come here again, whenever back in town. Food: Mushroom Toast - 5/5 I ordered the mushroom toast, & everyone at my table looked at it with admiration as it arrived at the table. Did I share a few bites? Yes... but did I want to? No. Just kidding, but it really is that good if you like mushrooms.. don't think twice! Pancakes - 4/5 - I really liked these, but I did think these were a little overhyped, wouldn't necessarily get it again with the mushroom toast as a different option on the menu.. the party I was with did all really like them though. Service - 5/5 - The waiter we had, I believe an Indian man, was so patient & helpful. Our table was quite rowdy in the restaurant, ordering shots during brunch & being loud, but he was so patient, kind, & helpful... hats off to this guy for dealing with all of us, haha. Ambiance - 4/5 - Nice atmosphere, & we got a round table, which was nice because we were all able to face each other & chat... it actually made a big difference, because I was meeting some people for the first time here, & I noticed that key difference with ease of socializing. Overall, great place!
I had pancakes, bacon & the crispy potatoes - overall VERY GOOD! 2 small critiques; i would consider adding an element of salt to the pancakes or syrup, even a touch of smoked maldon on top The pancakes were great, but flavors were falling a little flat that would elevate everything. 2nd - invest in some better quality bacon! This is cheap diner bacon. A thicker cut, or braised pork belly bacon would be more flavorful & match the menu better in my opinion. ALSO! it's a girl in the kitchen with safety pins in her ears.......TOTAL BADASS AT HER JOB! She is encouraging with her team, she challenges them, she's got an edge & not afraid to use it, all while still being respectful! If you haven't guessed it, I'm a chef & she is a gem compared to what you will typically find in the kitchen. 1 more thing, keep the floor swept where geusts can see, was a bit of an eyesore.

This place is a fantastic spot for brunch. My wife & I visited Montreal to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, & this place caught our attention. It's modern, easy to find, & offers a delightful array of brunch options. The endless summer breakfast & ricotta pancakes were both exceptional.
Très bon brunch, la serveuse à l'écoute. Des produits de bonnes qualités. Les pancakes & les tartines délicieux, nous nous sommes régalés. Par contre, pour nous qui aimons les pâtes, c'était loin d'être le meilleur plat.... choisissez plutôt le reste.
First impressions: we were 2 people & arrived on a Monday at 11:30 am & saw about 7 or 8 groups ahead of us in line. We were expecting a 1 hour wait & would have been fine with that (we even brought out books to read in line). Nice surprise to see we got seated within 15 minutes. Service: waiter was very friendly & quick & came back several times to refill waters, even during the lunch rush. It took about 40 minutes to get our food after ordering, but again it was the lunch rush Drinks: my wife's $7.00 orange juice tasted suspiciously Tropicana (boo!), but my maple latte was great. Very sweet & tasted more like maple candies than maple syrup. Got an Americano after that which was nice. Food: started with the Chicken sandwich, which was huge & delicious. Fried chicken thighs (not breast) on a fluffy brioche with a herby creamy sauce on a bed of slaw that included granny smith apple. We cut it in half & shared. We added a side of fingerling potatoes which were crunchy & well seasoned with herbs & salt. Came with a side of garlic sauce, & went well together with the sandwich. Last we had the stack of pancakes which remained warm by the time we got to it. The pancakes were dense (not as fluffy as Arthur's) but intentionally so I think. The pool of maple butter at the bottom was awesome & did not get sponged into the bottom pancake. Came with lemon infused mascarpone on the side, which added some bitter to offset the sweet. I liked it, but my wife could have done without (but she still didn't give me her portion!) Overall was a great experience & would return to see what else Dandys has to offer!
A restaurant to SKIP if you're looking for a lunch spot. Food: overpriced, nothing special. Pasta was mid & the shrimp coquette tasted like pre-made grocery store food. Ricotta pancakes are the only worth while menu item. Service: As another reviewer mentioned, the wait for food is >15 minutes. This is excessive. Atmosphere: good looking interior, seating is decent.
Sept 2024 -Didnt like it. ordered chicken sandwich, ricotta pancake & breakfast avocado toast. All were OK. Food is overrated. Ambiance is good though. Coffee was OK too.
A friend told me about this place & it did not disappoint! Super convenient because it was close to our hotel. There is seating indoors & outdoors, & when we came on a Thursday afternoon we did not have to wait long. Many people checked on us & we were very well taken care of. My mom & I shared the endless summer breakfast & she loved it so much that she's going to try & make it at home! Really tasty ingredients that were fresh & healthy. I also had an iced maple latte which was really good! If we have more time I will come back & try the ricotta pancakes because they looked amazing & it seemed like there was one on every table!

Wow! That's all I have to say. I ordered the Ricotta pancakes & I was completely blown away. It was beautiful. I took a bite from a friend's chicken sandwich & wow! Applause. This was a delight. The food is pricey but worth it.
FOOD IS DELICIOUS!!!, a little bit expensive but the food is worth it, personally I choose the pasta & it was delicious, the pancakes were also perfect & exceed my expectations, however, the service from the waiter was rude, in a hurry & with an attitude, the busboys were really nice & were more concern about our table than the waiter, the waiter took wrong 3 different dishes, never ask us if we need anything, but when explaining our concern to the busboys they change it for us with a smile & without a problem, 10/10 the busboys!

Please go to Dandy for the ricotta pancakes!!! I would have ordered one of everything on the menu but decided on zesty salad, which was SO GOOD. The spiked pistachio matcha latte too! I dream about having lunch at Dandy after my visit 😂
Great brunch spot! Absolutely loved the buttermilk fried chicken & the pancakes are also delicious. Be prepared to wait in line for a bit though on busy days!
Arrive early, we showed up just before they opened at 10am but there was already a line so we had to wait 1hr for second city. I initially regretted the wait but not after the meal! Chicken sandwich was fantastic & my daughter's loved the pancakes
Disappointing. I heard about the ricotta pancakes & had to try them. I make anginetti cookies with ricotta & they are super soft & light so I was imagining something similar. These were dense, with visible clumps of dry, bland ricotta. The syrup they were sitting in was a must. Restaurant was full on a Thursday at about 11 am - we were seated right away but the tables were so close together along a long bench that I had to move the table to sit down. No carpet or soft surfaces so sounded like a typical loud, busy diner. I tried to order a scrambled egg to get some protein with my pancakes & learned they would not serve their eggs scrambled, only poached or fried. I ordered hard over because I don't like a wet yolk. Came out so salty I could barely eat it. Maybe the chef was offended by my order? The experience just didn't live up to the the hype.
