Vraiment une belle découverte. Les brunchs étaient à la fois originaux & bien exécutés. Les produits sont de qualités & excellents. Super service. Espace spacieux Vraiment, mon seul bémol, c'est que j'aurais prit in plus gros café!!
Lovely brunch spot with delicious mushroom toast! Seasonal menu so loads of fresh local ingredients in the summer & lots of squash in fall. Their bread is delicious! It is bright & good for a group since they take reservations.

Alors oui, c'est très bon!
PAR CONTRE... 19$ pour UNE seule tranche de brioche avec 3 copeaux de peau de pomme (les chips de pommes) c'est la honte niveau quantité... sans parler de l'extra bacon, 2 petites tranches pour 6$!!!! On est où la? Tout ça, assi a une table de jardin dépliante...
Je le répète, la bouffe est bonne, mais les prix & les quantités sont ridicules, première & dernière fois...
C'est bon, mais c'est cher. On crève de faim quand on sort de là. Bon, c'est le Montréal branché qui est là. Je n'y retournerais pas.90 dollars à deux (avec le pourboire, qu'on te met d'offic
e à 18 %) & tu crèves de faim en sortant.
The blandest brunch I ve had in Montreal. One would have to TRY to make a couscous that tasteless with a bland chicken to boot. The menu descriptions grossly over-frill the basic dishes we got.
Great service & atmosphere, but the food was not worth the price. The menu looks interesting with cool flavor combinations but none of them actually turned out special at all. The eggplant tartine had bread that was too thick & large & covered the delicate flavors on top. The ravioli with chicken dashi soup didnt have a great texture & the main element that should have balanced it out (the dashi soup) didnt have any strong flavor & so the overall effect is a bad mix of textures without any standout flavors. The only thing we liked was the brioche, but even that wasnt all that impressive either. & the cocktails were similarly mediocre: the espresso martini was light brown with the taste of coffee barely present & was overall watered down. Overall an okay meal but wouldn't come again considering we ended up paying $115 for two meals, two cocktails, a brioche entree & the tip.

Je me régale à chaque fois ! Le service est toujours bon. Le seul bémol pour moi c est que c est bruyant parce que c est très fréquenté. Sinon c est une expérience gastronomique exceptionnelle à chaque fois.😊
Quel bon restaurant ! Ca fait déjà 3-4 fois que j'y retourne & c'est toujours aussi excellent. Les plats sont frais & délicieux, le staff est gentil & l'endroit vraiment cool. Rare sont les fois que je laisse un review mais ce resto en vaut la peine :)
Le meilleur brunch à Montréal! 🤩
Chaque assiette reflète tout le travail qui a été fait avant d'arriver à la table, avec des combinaisons tout simplement délicieuses. En plus, le service est merveilleux, une équipe super attentionnée qui contribue à créer une ambiance chaleureuse.
The food was really good but the portions really small. I usually can never finish a meal, especially brunch. I finished this quickly & easily but was still hungry. Coffee was really good.
Start your morning on a decadent note: pillowy blini layered with tarragon-infused salmon rillettes, topped with a luscious soy-marinated egg. Crisp iceberg lettuce, tangy pickled cucumber, & a silky romaine cream bring freshness to every bite, a brunch that balances comfort, elegance, & pure indulgence. 😊
Déjà, il faut dire que le personnel est ultra sympa! Le lieu est poussette & baby friendly (aucune marche à l'entrée, rampe d'accès à l'intérieur, table à langer). Il y a beaucoup d'ambiance mais c'est donc très bruyant.
Point de vue nourriture, il y a une toute petite sélection pour le brunch (un burger & un smoothie). Ne voulant pas de viande, je me suis rabattue sur le smoothie bol qui était délicieux mais vraiment tout petit & cher pour la quantité.
