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.

Beautiful setting, delicious food & presentation. A little on the pricey side.

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.

Nous avons passé un excellent moment pour le brunch avec mon amie. L'endroit est beau & très bien décoré. Ce n'est pas trop bruyant. Le service est très agréable & rapide. La nourriture est vraiment excellente !!!
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!!

J'ai pris le bagels saumon fumée pas très goûteux. Potage aux poireaux & pomme de terre froid je voulais goûter aux pommes de terre rissolées donc j'ai demander un extra j'avais pratiquement terminé mon assiette quand la serveuse est arriver à la table pour me dire j'ai oublié vos pommes de terre je lui est dit annule la commende j'ai terminé de manger & elle m'a dit non non non je vais les chercher par son attitude j'ai bien compris que je devrais argumenter & j'avais pas vraiment envie je passais un bon moment entre collègue donc je n'ai pas insisté mais j'ai trouver ça très ordinaire comme attitude

Chicken & busy restaurant. Tight seatings, which is typical of most restaurants in Old Montreal. Our server speaks very little English so when we asked for recommendations, we were steered towards the most expensive items on the menu. Food was okay; portions weren't big, but we couldn't finish the heavy & overly rich foods on our plates.

I went on a Saturday for brunch around 10am & was able to get a table for 2 easily but around 10:40, the host was notifying people that they could not fit them in until much later.
The food was AMAZING! I ordered the croque monsieur & it was perfection. My partner ordered the rustic poached egg & it was also amazing.
Our waitress was very nice but the service was a little slow but it allowed us to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere a little bit longer! I will definitely be back when I visit Montreal again.
