Everytime we visit Montréal we have to cone to this eggspectation. Its always great service & good food. Today was no exception the spectacular service with Enzo was the chef's kiss on a great meal.
a new years day brunch with the family was a great way to spend some time together. 5 stars, we had no issues. all of the staff, Johanna esp, that we interacted with were great. from being advised to where to park the car, dining, then receiving the bill & leaving, all super people to deal with. food & drinks all great. i had the southwest sunrise omlette. not busy place 10am new years day but you could see that it has busy times. well maintained & clean place, we had a booth upstairs. there used to be an eggspectations on decarie, ruby foos, but no more so we had to drive downtown. got there in under 20 minutes from st laurent but it was new years day! we will return for sure.
I love Eggspectation, it's one of my favorite breakfast restaurants that I visit when I come to Montreal. Today my waiter, Rubel, was awesome! He was kind, quick & very polite. I hope to see him again when I visit Montreal next.
I have been going to Eggspectation since I was a kid & I'm now in my 30s. They hands-down have the most generous portion sizes, the most consistent food quality, the most consistent service, & I've got to say also the best side fruit salad, like you can tell that this restaurant cares about its customers if you only look at the fruit salad. It's always fresh. They have berries in there. They usually have half a banana & then they have a bunch of other stuff. I love this place this place & it's my go to spot to bring people who are looking for an easy brunch for a large crowd or for people passing through Montreal
Food was extremely tasty. We got the classic Benedicts, Eggspectation omelette & veggie omelette & all exceeded our expectations. Rajan did a great job hosting us. Definitely recommend a visit.
Eggspectation high reality low. Chicken waffle was dry & no syrup. The chicken is worst than McDonald. Portion is good though. Nice fruits. Potatoes are pretty good.
Had breakfast here. Nice quiet joint with good customer service. Had some American Breakfast, Eggstraordinary & Crepe with Banana & Orange Juice. Breakfast on the whole was good. Loved the potato fritters. Waffles were tasty. The orange juice was a disappointment. It was freshly squeezed, that was great, but maybe the was not great. Not impressed with the crepe as it was overcooked & the Nutella was very less which didn't help the overly crisp crepe. Maybe it was one of a kind error happened while preparing it. But for sure, they should ensure that it doesn't happen again.
We had a great breakfast here on an early weekend morning. The menu had lots of great options but we thought the lyonnaise potato's are the reason we will come back. The eggs Benedict was my favorite.
Fun selection. I got eggs benedict, which was good but fairly salty. My husband got chicken & waffles, which was good but didn't have enough balsamic vinegar for the arugula.
