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.
The hour wait on a rainy Saturday was well worth it. The atmosphere was vibrant & welcoming, the customer service was excellent from start to finish & the food was absolutely amazing, perhaps the best breakfast we've ever had! My husband had the smoked salmon with capers, I had the summer breakfast both had Americano coffees. Highly recommend & can't wait to return!
Service was good! There was a line out front waiting but since we were a group of 2 we got seated quickly. We went for breakfast around 11:45 & it was packed! Pretty loud in there but not enough to where you couldn't hear the people at your table. Food was amazing! I especially recommend the side of fingerling potatoes with the aioli. Bathrooms downstairs were unisex & clean.
Decent place with subpar service. Food is definitely super overrated, even compared with other local brunch options. & you can get less grumpy service like literally anywhere else in the city. I was really looking forward to the chicken sandwich, but that ended up being only decent as well. The texture of the chicken was good, but the filling in the burger was too mustardy & didn't go well with the chicken for me.

Had a great Saturday brunch at Dandy's on St. Jacques Street. We were 4 & had a 30 minute wait. Outside seating was available sooner. We wanted to experience the restaurant & were glad we waited.
Super pretty restaurant with a great vibe. Service wasn't the fastest because it was packed, but everyone was very friendly.
After all the recommendations & reviews, I had to try the signature Ricotta Pancakes with maple brown butter sauce & lemon cream. They were so amazingly good !
My friends each had the Smoked Salmon Toast with poached egg, dill pickle cream cheese, heirloom tomatoes, fresh herbs, arugula, & lemon on thick house bread. They loved it. I got to sample it too & agreed.
We also shared a great fresh Green Salad with mixed greens, shaved fennel, toasted almonds, & Italian vinaigrette.
The people who had been waiting in line beside us ended up seated next to us & offered us a taste of the Crispy Smashed Fingerling Potatoes. They were fabulous.
Was happy we waited. Great food, great atmosphere, & a really enjoyable brunch experience. 🥞🥗☕?✨😊
I came here because of the hype.
I ordered the fried egg platter was not rich at all.
My wife ordered the salmon platter also was not rich as well.
The high carb platters from what I have seen are the rich ones so if you wanna eat healthy not the place to go.
The waiter with the braids was very rude when I asked about our food as a table made up of 6 people got their food before us & we ordered before them & what is even worst they have the same platters as us!
Nice atmosphere. Quick service. The ricotta pancakes were really good. The brown butter was really nice. The pasta was pretty good. The salmon toast was good.
Dandy is absolutely worth the visit! The food was delicious, very filling, & clearly made with care. The service was also excellent, friendly, attentive, & welcoming from start to finish. Just keep in mind that it's first come, first serve, so there can be a wait for a table during busy times. Even with the line, the experience & quality of the food made it completely worth it. I'll definitely be coming back!
