Fantastic breakfast option. Everything was very fresh & the coffee was good. The staff was friendly & helpful. The wait seemed like it was going to be long but they got us in quickly.

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.

I had a lovely experience on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Sat at the espresso bar, got the Montreal Benedict with salad, extra bacon, coffee, & an Aperol spritz (with oj added).
Very personable staff & very good food. Prices were reasonable for the area.

The only food in Montréal that dips below American food. Couldn’t finish any of it. Lovely staff.

Pour voir la file d'attente devant le restaurant & le nombre de personnes en train de manger, j'ai étais agréablement surpris par la rapidité & la qualité du service, la serveuse a pris le temps de nous servir correctement & très rapidement, les plats nous ont régalé !!! Le prix est très très correct.

A party of 3 with 2 people addicted to egg benedict, so it made sense to come the the closest location to have our breakfast: lobster Benedict, crab cake Benedict with me liking plain eggs.

The surprise was the watermellon slices, which was a great touch after having eggs. & thanks to our waiter, an Oriental guy (secretly I wished him to be our waiters as the others seem not to be bothered much) who paid attention to everything: how I like my bread etc. You might think: why be fussy? Well, otherwise I cannot eat or small things done not the way I like them simply make me physically sick.

This place is beautifully decorated, even the bathrooms are amazing & is located in a great area: as we returned around lunch time we noticed how busy & 'crazy' this are became all of a sudden. At night it might be madness.
