Review Summary

Le Passé Composé stands out with a chic, cozy ambiance and a refined, modern take on brunch that many reviews describe as delicious and generously portioned. Dishes such as bone marrow, foie gras poached egg, pain doré, and grilled cheese receive frequent praise for rich flavors, inventive combinations, and beautiful presentations. The service is described as attentive and friendly, with staff often creating a warm, elegant atmosphere, and the terrace and decor adding to a special occasion feel.

Food is great but they seem have staff shortage problem, only 2 servers with full capacity. Come & try the signature French toast & foie gras with 2 poached eggs. It was delicious! The only one I don't like is the strawberry smoothie is too sweet, they added yoghurt. However, Will be back again to try other dishes.

Moins bon que la dernière fois. Grill cheese froid & gras. Très bruyant, difficulté à tenir une conversation.

Le service était bon & rapide. Nous avons pris les oeufs pochés champêtre. C'était bon mais sans plus, il manquait vraiment de saveur dans la sauce aux bolets ou ailleurs & le pain brioché était sec.

Considérant le coût, j'aurais aimé un café régulier qui goûte quelque chose. J'ai dû commander un americano pour me contenter. À part cela, tout était excellent

C'est un bel endroit & le service était rapide. L'assiette est très copieuse & c'est toujours apprécié, mais je n'ai pas été impressionné par le plat d'oeufs pochés champêtre. Il manquait de saveur dans la sauce aux bolets & le pain brioché était sec.

Nos plats étaient froids, pourtant le service débutait a peine.... Salle un peu trop sombre. Expérience décevante pour le prix.
