Review Summary

Eggspectation is described as a popular, bustling brunch spot with a wide all day menu that covers breakfast, brunch and lunch and is known for generous portions and solid classics like eggs Benedict, crepes, omelettes, and French toast. The atmosphere is repeatedly praised as modern, lively and welcoming, with many noting friendly, attentive service that helps keep things moving even when busy. Guests frequently mention reliable preparation and tasty dishes, including good coffee and fresh-squeezed juice, while some reviews point out occasional misses such as dishes that are overly greasy or too spicy and prices that can feel high for the quality.

I love this restaurant. I visit from NY/PA around 5-6 times a year. I make sure I eat brunch every single day I am in Montreal. The food is amazing. The restaurant is spotless. The service is perfect. I especially adore Nikitas. He actually knows my order whenever I am there. He will see me & immediately get my beverages (diet soda & a glass of wine). We then chat a bit while my order is being prepared. He knows all his customers & truly enjoys his job. It is so refreshing. He makes you feel like family. The entire staff makes sure each guest is cared for & happy. I have been visiting Montreal for over 20 years & have been to many restaurants in the area. I can honestly say that this place is THE BEST for breakfast, brunch, & lunch/early dinner. The menu never disappoints. The staff is incredible. The entire experience is wonderful. I have never been let down by this restaurant. I absolutely recommend it to tourist & locals. It is a gem.

I have always loved going to Eggspectation for brunch. This was my first time at this perticular location. As always the food was great. We were seated by the patio door & felt a breeze of cold air evey time the door was opened. We asked if we could move to a booth & were told those are for parties of four only. That must be a restaurant policy because while there were two vacant booths, we could see couples waiting to be seated. I just find it strange that a restaurant would prioritize customs who might show up over customers who are already there. Sitting by the patio door was definitely not pleasant please avoid that spot. Our food got cold very fast, even my hot chocolate felt nice & cool.
