Vraiment un super bel établissement où s'arrêter prendre un café & déguster une délicieuse viennoiserie. Nous avons eu le privilège d'être servies par Jonathan, impeccable 😉

Point positif: J'ai choisi Duc de Lorraine pour déjeuner le premier jour de Iftar( 3id) après Le mois de Ramadan, pour avoir un Bon café de bon matin avec le famous New York roll. _Le service était à la hauteur (rapidité, propreté) _Le staff souriant & gentils. _Sanitaires très propre. _Une belle embiance a la française. _endroit très calme pour profiter du moment de fu solie à côté de la fenêtre ou bien à la terrasse. _ Café bien chaud, New York roll était trop trop trop trop fourré au chocolat au point tu peux pas le finir ni même manger la moitié. Point négatif: _New York roll était trop fourré. (Chaqu'un est son goût). _y'avait malheureusement quelques 🐜 qui monte sur ta table, sur ton sac , sur tes vêtements qui te met mal alaise. (J'ai signalé ça au service "BONSOIR" , j'espère il a transmis le message. A revenir ! Oui c'est sur pour essayer cette fois ci leur menu Salés. Merci. Bonne courage.
Couldn't try what I wanted, Got the Fraisier it was pretty but flavor wise underwhelming. BUT, I tried some of my friends orders (crème brûlée, cheesecake) & it was absolutely delicious, fresh. Honestly, I'll come back for sure to try more of the menu's, thank you for reaching out! I recommend! 5/5 :)) customer service is amazing!
The best French Cafe/Restaurant I've been to in my 10 years living in Montreal. We had the Onion soup, St-Paul Benedictine & Crepes & it was fantastic. The atmosphere of traditional French music & great service brought me back to times of sitting in Paris, with a quality of food that is normally lacking in Canada.
Très bon service de Titouan, qui malgré notre déception de ne pas avoir pu goûter un crookie a rendu ce moment très convivial & sympa. Merci à lui pour sa sympathie.
Merci à Francisco pour nous avoir orientées sur le choix de nos desserts. Arrivées peu avant la fermeture, Francisco nous a offert un très bon service. Il s'est montré patient & a su répondre à chacunes de nos questions pour nous guider au mieux vers un dessert qui pourra ravir nos palais. Merci encore Francisco !
Fanciest brunch I've ever been to! We were served by the lovely Rosalie who was very attentive to our needs! The restaurant is well located & our window was looking into the Oratory. We tried a variety of sweet & salty brunch dishes & took home some viennoiseries. We felt like we were transported to France for the time of a diner!
