The service frequently stands out, with numerous guests commending the attentive, professional, and welcoming nature of the staff. While the experience is often highlighted as a highlight of visiting Montreal, some feedback notes that the pricing is quite high for the portions provided. While the majority of guests have a wonderful experience, inconsistent service and occasional issues with food temperature or preparation have been mentioned by some. Overall, it remains a popular choice for celebrations and special occasions where guests are looking for a refined, authentic atmosphere.
I bought some pastries there. The prices are RIDICULOUS. The only reason I went was because it is supposed to be one of the best in Montreal. I almost had a heart attack seeing the prices. You can find just as good for half the price at many places. Very over rated. The cashier kept trying to get me to buy more stuff. No thank you. Honestly nothing exceptional.
Parfait ,rien à dire , très bon service ,pâtisserie succulente ,prix raisonnable, personnels agréable ,à renouveler lors de notre prochain voyage à Montréal .
I went often as a little girl. It was a special then, & it still is. The staff was accommodating & caring to my requests regarding the fact that I am in a motorized wheelchair. Friendly staff, pastries to die for, & other yummy things. Back to memo
Expérience étrange.
Staff souriant, mais distrait.
La sélection de pizzas croûte mince semblait intéressante. Étant dans un haut lieu de boulange, on s'est dit que la pâte serait sans doute bonne. On a donc commandé la pizza végétarienne qui nous a été servie... sur un pain tortilla de blé entier.
Pour vrai.
Le sandwich baguette jambon de Paris, beurre & fromage suisse plutôt bon, mais il y manquait le petit je ne sais quoi pouvant justifier son prix à 10$, sans accompagnement.
Jamais le service n'est revenu nous voir, ni s'est enquis de notre satisfaction.
Lorsque nous avons mentionné l'étrangeté de la situation croûte-pain-tortilla-plus-mince-que-mon-couteau, lors du règlement de l'addition, le staff à nié la possibilité, nous faisant plutôt la leçon sur les pizzas à la croûte mince.
Comme en Italie, qu'on nous a dit...
C'était surréel de devoir expliquer qu'on croyait savoir ce qu'était une croûte mince & qu'en général, une croûte, aussi mince qu'elle soit, a la faculté de lever un tant soit peu.
La personne à la caisse a eu la décence de nous faire un rabais de 50% sur la pizza & nous avons donné le pourboire de 18% suggéré par le terminal interac, mais ouf. Deux semaines plus tard & je suis encore perplexe.
I was very disappointed by my dining experience. I had invited 4 family members to join me for a light lunch. The last time I had come in May 2014 I found the service a little distracted but I excused it as a one-time event. Unfortunately it was worse this time. The waiters were busy talking amongst themselves & our orders got mixed up & some items were forgotten. The salad had a bug in it & it was left uneaten. No one inquired as to why it had not been touched. I expected much more from this establishment. We will not be returning.
Extremely disappointed & somewhat embarrassed at having subjected
my out of town guests to an uncomfortable & lacklustre meal.
The reputation of this restaurant has diminished considerably.
The staff numbers plenty yet attention to orders are non
existant.
The food quality itself is below par & hygiene is now an
issue. It is unfortunate but I can no longer continue to
recommend or frequent this particular establishment.
Ce bistro français est un trésor du quartier Côte-des-Neiges. Sûrement le meilleur de tout Montréal.
Le service : EXCELLENT! & tellement sympathique & chaleureux!
Les sandwichs : délicieux & si joliment prepares avec une salade prepares avec soin.
Les desserts : succulents & alléchants. Peut-être la meilleure patisserie de toute la ville
La vue : magnifique
Emmenez vos amis ou votre amoureux! C'est un MUST!!!! :D J'y reviendrais c'est sûr!!!
Every time I visit this fabulous place with incredible design, décor & service especially, the excellent taste of the food comes naturally. Genuine French pastry, extremely tasty croissants & coffees. What a fantastic scenic view form the terrace. A+++
This is my go to. Want to sit & enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend? perfect. Need a sandwich on the run? got it. Have a sweet tooth that needs to be addressed. the perfect remedy. The owners work everyday & the time, energy, & effort they put in is immediately apparent. Worth every penny.
