Review Summary

Le Butterblume is described as bright and lively with a seasonal menu and a standout brunch that draws a crowd. Many reviews praise the use of high end ingredients, the beautiful presentation of dishes like ravioli and brioche, and the open kitchen with attentive service. There are remarks about portions varying, with some brunch portions being generous and others noting that certain dishes like gnocchi can feel heavy or that some smaller plates leave you wanting more. Prices are often described as high and sometimes not worth the value given the portion sizes, with some diners leaving satisfied and others disappointed. Noise level is frequently noted as high when the place is busy, though the atmosphere is described as warm and convivial with friendly staff. The brunch and seasonal ingredients receive many positive notes, with compliments on coffee, bread, and creative combinations, while a few critics feel certain flavors lack balance or fail to rise above home cooking. Overall, impressions range from solid to exceptional, highlighting strong service and a vibrant setting while acknowledging room for refinement in flavor balance and pricing.

I had a reservation at 1pm, but the restaurant was so busy & hectic that I had to wait another 25m to be seated. Since I was a single person, I was seated at the bar where you can see the kitchen in full view & watch everything be prepared. So while the restaurant looks cool, it was also loud. So it's not a peaceful lunch spot. But it was on a Saturday.

However I found the service to be great, because of the delay they served me a drink & coffee without charge. I found all the staff to be pretty attentive & quick as well.

Overall satisfied with the food. I had a savory & sweet leek & cheese bread-cake, along with a separate plate of gravlax that leaned sour & salty. They paired well together. Most of the menu isn't actually a full main meal, so I'd expect to order 2 different things to feel full & satisfied.

Je suis venue au Butterblume en 2018 & je me rappelle des belles saveurs que j'avais goûtées alors! Je gardais entre autres un très bon souvenir des raviolis. Malheureusement, cette fois-ci le bouillon ne goûtait rien & tous les plats sauf le cake au chou-fleur donnaient l'impression que les cuisiniers avaient perdu leur salière. C'était un brin décevant puisque plusieurs des plats avaient un fond très lointain de goût délicieux, mais qui était trop dilué. Par contre, ne prenez pas les champignons, ils sont crus & ça goûtait le compost. Pour le prix, je m'attendais à être jetée à terre.

Randomly choose here for brunch around area. No service, food is okay but nothing impressed. Cauliflower cake was dry. Eggplant toast not bad but too salty for me. Pork belly pancakes is brunch menu only for weekends, hard to say:)
