We came on a Monday morning for brunch. We got seated right away & had very friendly waiter to greet us & take our order. However as we finished our meal, it seems our waiter completely forgot about us. More than 45 min after finishing our meal the table was never cleared the waiter never checked back in. I had to get up to grab another waiter to get our bill.
The food was good. Portions were big. Coffee was nice. But service was a bit of a disappointment. Atmosphere started out very quiet & nice but got loud very quickly.View more
Excellent restaurant! Les repas sont délicieux & la décoration est très jolie! Je recommande fortement.View more
The food at Janine Café-Brunch is decent, & the atmosphere feels cozy & stylish.
The staff are quite friendly, which adds to the experience.
Just be prepared to wait in line if you go later in the day-it can get pretty busy.View more
Pour le brunch, la nourriture a été excellente & le service aussi. Je recommende. Si vous prenez un café de spécialité, le café filtre est inclus aussi donc ça vaut la peine. Le cappuccino était bonView more
Cuisine, service & ambiance super. Serveurs & serveuses poli & amicaux. Instagramable pour ceux ou celles qui aiment ça. Un petit shot de santé avant les plats on adore ça! Je recommande 👍🏻View more
My sister & I enjoyed the brunch, it was a great place to celebrate my sister's birthday. The food was excellent. The only thing that I was disappointed, why I gave 3 for service is due to the fact that they did not serve a cake with candle for my sister to blow. I indicated on my reservation that it was a special occasion. Worst part is we saw that they served candles to blow at other tables. This was a big miss!View more
B Beautiful atmosphere & delicious brunch!
This place has such a lovely vibe & is definitely one of my favorites. The brunch menu offers a great variety of dishes, with plenty of tasty options for vegetarians. My father especially enjoyed the flavorful courgette bread! I also loved the Champi, it was super tasty & perfectly done. We visited for Mother's Day this time, & it made the occasion even more special. Highly recommend for a relaxing & satisfying meal.View more
Really enjoyed my time there. The food was amazing, staff attentive & courteous, & I enjoyed the vibe of the place.View more
C'était bien sans plus. Je m'attendais à plus. Maybe mes attentes étaient trop élevées d'où ma'déception'. Je mets entre guillemets car le mot est un peu fort. Comprenons nous bien c'était super bon mais malheureusement la sauce au sucre à la crème était granuleux & la présentation était moyenne. Faut savoir que j'ai pris le pain sans gluten alors ça enlève un peu de charme. Overalll je suis satisfaite mais c'était pas WOW.View more
Superbe endroit pour bruncher une fin de semaine
Quand j'ai reçu mon plat au début j'étais un peut déçu de la consistance mais quand la supérieur m'a demander si tout allais bien j'ai exprimé mon ressenti on a re fait mon assiette & Cetais juste parfait je partais d'une étoile à la base mais je repart avec un 5 étoile dans tout top du top merci encore !
Des fois faut juste leurs exprimé notre ressenti & ils s'occupent du reste !View more
The decor is beautiful & authentic, with a refined, upscale feel.
The host was not welcoming. We asked for a cozy table, but he insisted it was reserved for parties of four. He seated us next to a cold window instead. The preferred table, along with several other four-person tables, stayed empty for a long time before couples were eventually seated there. It was clear the tables had not been reserved, which left a poor impression.
The atmosphere was very noisy. A touch of light, soothing music could have improved the experience.
The waitress was knowledgeable & attentive.
Prices are on the higher end, which is expected for this type of restaurant.
The food was good but disappointing. Flavors were not well balanced & did not come together as expected.View more
I've come a few times with friends for brunch. The food is amazing & fresh. The service is really great & the staff are friendly. You do however have to be prepared to wait a bit in line as this is a popular spot & they don't offer text notification service so you'll have to stand outside for anywhere from 30min to 1 hr. The vegetarian options are also great but fairly limited.View more
L'accueil était très chaleureux, le service un des meilleurs. J'ai commandé Champi comme plat principal (pain, champignons sautés à la creme & à la sauge, 2 oeufs pochés, patates maison (une sorte de purée), coulis de poivrons) avec un cappuccino. C'était consistant, mais je trouve que les champignons ont dominé tout le repas (& moi, j'aime manger des champignons). Je propose de réduire la quantité pour un quart & potentiellement ajouter une boule de patates de plus pour équilibrer le goût.
Le cappuccino était très bon.View more
Très agréable! Service impeccable & cuisine délicieuse!!View more
Very good food, nice setting. I think it's a bit on the expensive side(I was invited so I don't know). But the quality of the food is top, so worth the extra. Very good service. Easier to get a seat on weekdays, we saw a lineup on weekendsView more
Great food. Amazing service. Last minute still allowed us to take seat & order. Very nice staff.View more
I'd never heard of Café Janine before but I could see myself becoming a regular. The food was outstanding, the service is impeccable & the ambience was a pleasant kind of elevated conviviality; a relaxed refinement that tied everything together.
The lineup is no joke for a weekend brunch, so come prepared to wait outside for 30 minutes or more. Out party really appreciated the complementary servings of tea & small nibbles served by staff along the wait line. It's a small, classy bit of gratitude that made the wait much more tolerable.
Once we were inside, we immediately relaxed & were treated very well by the friendly, professional staff. Service was quick & helpful, with good suggestions when we requested tnem.
Every morsel was delicious, & we especially liked the juice tastings: fresh & delicious samples of various juices arranged in a way that makes it easy to share. The chicken sandwich was excellent with a generous serving & good seasonings. The Scotch eggs were perfect, with a great balance of flavours & textures. We tried the carrot cake as a treat, & it was wonderfully moist & light, with great bounce.
I expected a higher bill at the end, & I was pleasantly surprised. Overall, it's good value for an excellent dining experience. A must-try!View more
