Eva's is such a fun brunch spot with a really unique vibe. The atmosphere feels more like a high-end evening lounge, but somehow it works perfectly for brunch. It's young, lively, & definitely a place you go to enjoy the experience, not just the food. 🤗
& the food truly delivers. My egg in the Le Brit sandwich was incredible - light, fluffy, almost like a delicate carbonara-style texture, & packed with flavor. The avocado toast was fresh & delicious, & my husband said the Mtl cheesesteak was the best he's ever had. Portions are fair, not huge, but definitely satisfying.
A small note: the music can get a bit loud at times, but it didn't take away from the overall experience.
The only thing that disappointed us slightly was the juice. At $5, we expected something a bit more refined, but the grapefruit juice turned out to be Oasis which you can buy at the dollar store, just served in a pretty glass.
That said, everything else was great. Just be sure to make a reservation - it gets busy. Parking is available on nearby streets, though you may need a few extra minutes to find a spot.
Overall, we really enjoyed it & will absolutely be back. Highly recommend! 😋
One of the most beautiful brunch places I've ever been to as a tourist. My friends & I reserved a table of 4, however when we arrived we had to sit at the bar.
We didn't mind & enjoyed the food but when it came to paying, one of my friends chose not to tip since we were all doing separate bills. After our server saw that she didn't tip, she told her, no tip? In a very rude manner.
Mind you, the other 3 of us did our own tips & I gave a $20 tip for my own meal. After we were getting ready to leave, my friends & I were getting weird faces from our server & another server she was chatting to. I could tell they were talking to us because I heard them
making comments about us being broke while we were leaving.
The restaurant itself is gorgeous & the atmosphere is so fun.
The service was so good, never once was my water fully empty. Food came quick also.
I got the hightower which I loved. My friend got the brit & it was also so good! The highlight though were the amazing pancake bites. Such big portions! We had to take most of it to-go.
Such a fun brunch experience, especially for groups. It's the best place to go for a celebration.
We came here for brunch on a Sunday. Despite being a popular restaurant, it was relatively easy to get a reservation, which was especially nice since many places don't allow brunch reservations.
We ordered the avo toast, shoe string fries & the chicken & waffles, along with a spritz & a matcha latte. Everything was an excellent choice, with generous portion sizes. We were very full & didn't feel hungry for hours after. Exactly what you want from a brunch. We were seated in front of the kitchen, & every dish coming out looked absolutely divine.
The staff were also super courteous & polite. They offered great recommendations for the meals.
Such a beautiful lowkey brunch spot in Montreal. The food was AMAZING & the restaurant is so gorgeous inside! The pancake bites are a must have!! The iced matcha was also fantastic
Our waitress daniela was so lovely. She gave us a complementary pancake bowl! She was so great to talk to. The food was delicious. She really made our brunch a 10/10. The only inconvenience was one of the waiters rushed us out from our reservation when it had not been 2 hours, but other than that a bug thank you to daniella!
