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.
First visit at this place this week. The waiter was veey nice & respectful. The rerrasse was nice. I ordered strawberry banana flambé french toast with syrup. I requested it with no bananas so extra strawberries instead. More than half of the strawberries were rotten & tasted awful. I did not taste any syrup in the dish & none was offered to any of us (party of 4) the other 3 dishes were not what we expected. Dry with no flavour. Sorry fist & last visit for us. Rotten food is a no-no!
This is Canada's version of First Watch. Fresh, fun, innovative, smash shops that are full of flavor. We thoroughly enjoyed the service & atmosphere. The weather was perfect & we sat outside our glasses empty & my wife absolutely orange ricotta, & dark cherry compote French toast. I had their Mediterranean wings, which were absolutely delightful. I would have that same lineup again & again. Highly recommend, would go back.
I came here the other day with my husband, the food was lovely, there was a variety to choose from & it came quick. The service was very good, my server was super nice & made sure that I was taken care of. However, I was sat next to the kitchen & I noticed that there was a lot of passive aggressiveness coming from someone who I assume was the manager (he was in all black, no uniform) towards the servers who were obviously trying their best & that he wasn't very good under pressure. I understand that the service industry is very rigorous but it was very discouraging to see & hear &, in my opinion, very unprofessional.

I think is a decent place for brunch. In my opinion it's a bit overpriced. The breakfast options while vast are all similar. Replacement of potatoes that are the main choice for everything is relatively expensive, making all breakfast options a little less light & very heavy. The day we went the potatoes were also under seasoned. So bland potatoes with your breakfast is a disappointment. To replace the potatoes it's 6$, kinda pricy if you simply prefer lighter side. Other than that options are min 20$. That's quite pricy for the portion & I want to say limited modifications allowance. I would not mind if I could change potatoes to a salad, but otherwise kinda a let down. Drinks are good. Coffee is good. Portion size okay. It's decent place for breakfast but if I'm honest I think there are better out there for the price. That being said, you will find something you would be satisfied with on the menu for sure. Hence 4 stars. The staff was kind. Due to being busy it just takes a little while for service. I'd recommend if it's your vibe.
Had breakfast here on our trip to Montreal was pretty near to our hotel 🏨 . The pancakes 🥞 were fully nice & heavy to finish off :) . Coffee ☕️ was ok but not too great. But altogether loved the breakfast.🍳
The food was sooo goooood!!! We had the fried chicken & waffles, & the smoked salmon benny & it was so so yummy. Even the side potatoes had taste to it unlike the dried tasteless ones on your plate in Toronto & other places. Cheers to the chef & our server who was polite & always smiling. Amazing breakfast place. 10/10 highly recommend
