Top dining experience I've had in years. All menu choices seemed delightful. We didn't mind waiting to get in for at least 45 minutes as it was well worth it!❤
Waitress are kind but waiting time is long. Jambong is good & soft but bread & chicken tenders are sweet. Overall sweet. Price is expansive. But mood is good.
Un incontournable en tout point! Autant pour la nourriture que pour le service & l'ambiance. Peu importe ce que vous choisirez au menu, vous l'adorerez! Leur menu change au gré des saisons & leur gâteau du moment aussi (prendre un morceau pour emporter, c'est obligé!). Ils ne prennent aucune réservation, mais ça vaut la peine de faire la file.
The scotch egg was amazing. I would have taken an ostrich egg size one if it was available. The panko is light & crispy, just enough chorizo without overpowering the perfectly cooked egg. But the sausage was my favorite. So much meat flavor. 7$/sausage but I would have a bucket full, if I could. The latkas...by themselves my poor taste buds could not reconcile the overpowering beets (the latkas were also a bit too oily as well) BUT when you take a mouthfull of latkas, smoked salmon (there is a lot in the plate! No shrinkflation here), fresh dill & parsley, pickled onions & labné...oh WOW oh WOW! This plate comes alive. I would gladly re-order that dish again (to share so that I can enjoy a scotch egg & a couple of sausages). The carrot cake was worth it! Great pineapple & carrot butter. The mascarpone makes the whole thing work. Delish! 5 star service! A waitress who has good suggestions & is honest enough to help me save $$$ by letting me know 1 portion of carrot cake is big enough for 2 ppl totally deserves 5 stars for service.
One of the best brunch places in Montreal!! The food was delicious, the restaurant is beautiful & the staff were very attentive. Would come back anytime! They also have great gluten free options for those who are allergic & the staff treated the allergy seriously (they toast the gluten free bread in a separate toaster, warned about potential gluten items, etc).
Ne m'attendais pas a cela,le service était extraordinaire du début jusqu'à la fin! L'équipe est sympa! j'ai vraiment appréciée, ils ont ajusté mon choix de plat avec mes demandes.
