I've been going to this restaurant for the past few years & have always had a great experience. The food has been delicious, the ambiance is great & the service as well. However, during my most recent visit this weekend, I ordered what I usually order, the foie gras poached egg, & I was disappointed to say the least. I'm not sure what has changed but the egg was cold, the foie gras was tasteless & the bread was dismal (honestly SO BAD). I'm not sure if there was something happening that day or not but I'm not sure I'll be returning anytime soon. At least the coffee & tea were good 🥲

J'y ai pris un brunch le week-end dernier & j'ai vraiment beaucoup apprécié l'expérience. Les plats étaient savoureux, généreux & bien présentés. Le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Mention spéciale à notre serveuse, Claire, qui a été particulièrement accueillante, attentionnée & pleine d'humour, son service a vraiment rendu le moment encore plus agréable.

Golden confit duck & silky bone marrow piled onto country-style bread, crowned with a perfectly poached duck egg that spills like velvet. Earthy chanterelles, sweet green peas, manchego shavings, & a creamy tarragon sauce tie it all together, finished with herb-salted crumble & fresh mizuna shoots.
Rich, comforting, & just refined enough to feel like a slow celebration rather than a meal. #RestaurantBrunchLePasseCompose #Montreal

Ça fait des années que je vais dans ce brunch, & ce même quand ils étaient encore dans le village. C'est un des meilleurs brunch à Montréal selon moi en terme de goût. Les portions sont assez généreuse dependement du plat choisi.
Il y a beaucoup de monde le weekend donc il faut réserver en avance.
Par contre les prix ont beaucoup augmenté & continuent d'augmenter. C'est très cher pour ce que c'est. Petit détail avant ils servaient du café filtre à volonté & ils ont malheureusement arrêté ce format récement.

Très bon mais très cher environ 115 dollars un brunch pour deux (deux assiettes, un smoothie un cafe, sans d'accompagnement, sans mimosas)

Great service, but forgot my orange juice... only realised at the end of the meal... food was very good! Nice Decor & ambiance. Price alittle on the higher side but you get what you pay for.

Food & indoor decor was great! Love their mushroom saucing in the brunch items. Only downside is different servers kept coming back for our orders, when we specifically asked for more time to translate the menu; & when I asked about my order that took way longer than the others, the waitress gave me an annoyed look without words.

I came here after seeing Le Passé Composé heavily recommended on social media & marketed as one of Montreal's best brunch spots. Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the hype.
Our group all ordered the foie gras. I initially wanted to order the pancakes with maple syrup, nuts, & sugar, but they were already sold out. While the waitresses were polite & attentive, the food itself was disappointing. The foie gras portion was extremely small & felt more like a piece of bread topped with a poached egg than a true foie gras dish. On top of that, the food arrived almost cold.
Even though the wait time was reasonable, the quality-to-price ratio is simply not there. I paid $57 (including tip) for the foie gras & an iced matcha latte, which I would not recommend at all. it was about 90% milk & 10% matcha, & once mixed, it tasted like flavorless green milk.
Overall, I would suggest saving your trip & going to another brunch spot, such as Allô Mon Coco. While the food may be less'exotic,' the quality & quantity is noticeably better for the exact same price or even less.

The service was good but the food fell a bit flat, especially for the prices they charge. Grilled cheeses for $30+ that are decent at best. We also had the bone marrow duck confit poached egg which to be honest tries to be too many things at once & loses itself in the myriad of fancy ingredients. We were in good company so we enjoyed ourselves but I had much better food for a fraction of the price.

Bon endroit pour le brunch. J'ai pris un grilled-cheese avec frites , la portion était copieuse. La salle est joliment décorée & chaleureuse. Possibilité de réservation en ligne appréciée. Bémol : nous étions très proches de la table voisine.

I went there for brunch. I ordered the ÉVEIL D'ASPERGES, & it was absolutely delicious! The sauce had a unique flavor, & the presentation was nice
My friend ordered the croissant sandwich, which was just average. Overall service was great & atmosphere was cozy & beautiful!

Visuellement, l'endroit est magnifique & le personnel est gentil & attentionné. Même si la place se remplit vite (réservez 2 semaines à l'avance), cela n'était pas très bruyant & il était facile de discuter.
J'ai malheureusement été très décue par la nourriture, cela manquait de saveur, les épinards devenaient pateux en bouche & la gauffre était minuscule en dessous.

Les prix sont très raisonnables pour la qualité.

Une cuisine ultra grasse & sans goût. Les champignons baignaient dans 3 cm d'huile. Les frites étaient molles.
Le clou du spectacle, les gaufres en dessert à 30 dollars ne sont même pas fraîches. Des éponges recouvertes d'une épaisse pâte de je ne sais quoi. J'ai payé 70 dollars pour un lunch qui m'as clairement dégouté. J'y repense avec nausée. A ce prix je préfère déjeuner au Hiatus ou au Ritz. Leurs menus du midi sont à 55 cad & c'est de looiiiiiiin bien meilleur. Pour les avis positifs. Je ne comprends pas, ces gens doivent vraiment être habitués à une alimentation industrielle & bas de gamme.

Bonne nourriture mais pas le même concept & ambiance que l'ancien passé composé. Les prix sont aussi beaucoup plus élevé. Pas de café filtre à volonté... la base de toute vraie place de brunch!!
