I came here with my family today & was absolutely amazed by the high quality of service, ambience, & most importantly, the FOOD!
The Paris Omelette is hands-down the best omelette I've ever had, & I don't even like eggs that much! The cheese was the absolute highlight - not too strong & not at all greasy.
The owner kindly greeted us & welcomed us to the little neighbourhood cafe. It's for this reason I am tempted to keep this place our hidden treasure but some things are too good NOT to share!
We were a group of 4 that arrived on Sunday early morning before the brunch rush. There were two other tables (group of 3 & 2) occupied at the time we arrived. The place is very small & their kitchen is part of the dining room so you can see all the action. They had two (?) portable induction hot plates & a tiny microwave & the smallest deep fryer.
The server was very nice & friendly but nonetheless it was hard to get his attention & overall service was very very slow. We arrived at 915am, got our coffees at 9:39am & we placed our food then. Food arrive between 10:18am - 10:21am. As mentioned, their kitchen is very small & there was only one cook. I don't know if they were understaffed or if this is the norm but 40mins to receive brunch food when we planned to beat Sunday brunch rush isn't exactly what we were expecting.
The long wait didn't help the fact tha we were seated in the back corner with a bench (for two), a bucket style chair & a backless metal stool which was very uncomfortable & much taller than the table, which added to the discomfort.
Food & drinks were good, nothing to complain there. I requested over medium eggs (they said they don't poach but rather fry the eggs), but my dish came with fully cooked eggs. I didn't ask them to remake them knowing it will be a while before my dish would be returned to me.
If I were to return, I'd order in advance & opt to so take out instead of dining in.
Une expérience exceptionnelle ! Nico, Zach & Beatriz sont incroyablement accueillants, attentionnés & professionnels. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & on se sent tout de suite à l'aise.
Mais surtout, un immense bravo à André, le chef talentueux qui a préparé tout le coquetel japonais - un vrai délice, plein de saveurs, de créativité & de finesse. 🍣✨
Je recommande vivement cet endroit - un vrai coup de coeur ! 💫
Invitée au pré-cocktail vendredi prochain ! Venez découvrir, c'est ouvert au public ! 🍸
Je suis allée chez La Base plusieurs fois & c'est toujours un coup de coeur! Le café est excellent, la nourriture est savoureuse & de grande qualité. On voit vraiment qu'ils mettent du soin & de la créativité dans chaque détail du menu. Le service est toujours agréable & chaleureux. J'adore l'endroit & je le recommande à 100%!
Service was good, but the food was a miss for me. 😅
First with the positives, I thought my coffee was alright. I liked it fine. 🙂
I got a burger, the patty was a little overcooked & dry. For the price it's a bit disappointing. I think it would've been pretty good otherwise. But it just wasn't up to par.
The mayo was really salty for some reason. 😅 Idk if it's just me, but it tasted at least twice as salty as regular mayo to me. (I used a little to-go MAG branded mayo packet I had laying around in the fridge to dip the fries instead of the one that came with. It's just so salty. 😅)
I find the fries a bit on the saltier side for my liking too, but that's just me. They were actually pretty good otherwise! I like the texture.
Overall not impressed, but maybe I just got unlucky today. Anyways, no shade towards anyone. Thanks for the food. ✌?
Super petit resto de quarter. Belle selection de plat pour le brunch, concentrés sur les produits locaux. Le personnel est très sympathique & attentionné. Les café glaces sont vraiment excellents & les grilles cheeses sont absolument décadent!! À essayer!!
