Huh it seems the'big trouble' there is the waiter... He was kinda rude... said'jesus christ' when bringing our drinks because we didnt hear him at first... so yeah, unless this was part of some weird concept of being rude to customers I believe he might wanna have a good night sleep before coming to work. Otherwise the food was good & I would still recommend this place.

Back in the day, catching up with friends meant a night out over beers, loud music, & questionable decisions. Now that we're older (& wiser?), it's all about cozy cafes, cappuccinos, & deep conversations about back pain. The gossip is still the same, but now it comes with a side of foam art & zero regrets the next morning.

Tried the latkes, breakfast plate, & pancake stack. 10/10 across the board. Service was top-notch as well. Shoutout the girl working at the counter today (Tuesday, Dec 10th at 10:30 AM), thank you for accomodating to our requests with a smile on your face at all times & for your patience, too. We truly loved our experience here. The music playing in the restaurant was so nice & fit right in with the atmosphere of the place.

L'endroit est vraiment sympa, la nourriture était bonne & à un prix abordable. Le service ne se fait pas à table, pas évident donc de savoir à quel moment c'est bien notre commande qui est prête. Néanmoins, la déco est bien choisie & le rapport qualité/prix des repas est vraiment bon. J'y retournerai sans aucun doute lors de mon prochain passage à Montréal :)
