Le P'tit Rustik is widely celebrated as a premier brunch destination in Montreal, frequently praised for its exceptional eggs Benedict, unique potato fritters, and high-quality French toast. Visitors consistently highlight the homemade nature of the food, the warm and welcoming atmosphere, and the friendly, attentive service provided by the staff. While the restaurant is a beloved neighborhood gem, its popularity often leads to significant wait times, particularly on weekends, and the cozy, small interior can feel crowded or noisy. Most guests find the experience well worth the wait, though a small number of reviewers noted concerns regarding pricing transparency for extras, limited seating space, or occasional inconsistencies in service speed during peak hours.
We were there around 11:30am on a Sunday & had to only wait 10 minutes to be seated. If you come around noon, note that you may need to wait a little longer.
We ordered the vegetarian eggs benedict, rustik plate, & the french toast topped with blueberry compote. Everything was absolutely delicious!
We ordered a egg benedict with smoked salmon, a french toast with apple, 2 potato frits & 2 hot chocolates.
The fruits coming with egg benedicts doesn't taste.
The hot chocolate was too light for me.
The foods were alright.

What a beautiful place! Me & my friend were looking for a nice brunch place to catch up & for good food at the same time. We were there around 10:30am on a Sunday & had to only wait 10 minutes to be seated. If you come around noon, note that you may need to wait a little longer.
We ordered the vegetarian eggs benedict, rustik plate, & the french toast topped with blueberry compote. Everything was absolutely delicious! Instead of ordering only 1 slice of french toast, we should have ordered 2!
The pistachio French toast was good, however, important to note that this is NOT TRUE PISTACHIO. This is made with almond spread & NOT pistachio. The flavour is good because we enjoy the marzipan flavour, however, if you are looking for authentic pistachio flavour this is not what I would recommend. I think they should be mentioning that in their menu to not lead people astray.
Otherwise, the food was good. The salmon Benedict was tasty, not a huge fan of the lime sourness as a flavour combination.
The best part by far were the bognettes. They remind me of latkes & were done very well here.
🤤 🇫🇷 🍞 Pain Doreeeeee! DAMN!
It's been a while since I had Mtl brunch, & Le P'tir Rustik did not disappoint 🙌
Fortunately we went Friday shortly after lunch, & got seated instantly, however the place was more or less full - i can see how on the weekend this place will be swamped.
Staff were super friendly, Service was fast, & food was top notch!
We ordered the Atlantique Benedict, Gravelax (deconstructed atlantique with toast), & French Toast 💣
The Benedict was great as to be expected. Generally I get the hollaindaise on the side, however mistakenly it was put on (the team did offer to make me a new one, but I decided to chow down) & I must say the hollaindaise in this instance was perfect, light, not overpowering & well balanced!
On to the French Toast, the clear star of the show 🌟 we opted for blueberry, & did not expect this beast to come out - when it arrived we knew it was gonna be good & it tasted even better than it looked.
Fresh cream, thick slabs of pain doree, blueberries, & some caramel/butterscotch sauce (to me this tasted like melted down werthers originals).
Next time I'm back in Mtl, I'm going straight here 😆
Bonjour mon conjoint & moi avons découvert le resto grâce a l'émission coup de food jeudi le 17 avril nous sommes allés déjeuner dans ce petit resto très chaleureux . Les gens nous ont accueillis comme si nous étions reçu dans leurs propre maison chaleureux à souhait ,& que dire des assiettes oeuf bénédictines un vrai délice .,les petites patates aussi délicieuses, le café sublime ,pour tout vous dire c'est une très belle découverte,🩷
Lors d'une prochaine escapade dans Montréal nous y retournerons avec plaisir .
Si vous avez la chance faite un petit détour ça vaut vraiment le coup❤?❤?
C'est toujours super bon! On y mange bien & les oeufs Bénédicte sont vraiment nice 😁 Attendez-vous à faire un peu la queue dehors, mais c'est le cas de tous les bons brunchs!
I ordered the Vege Egg Benedict. Little tear in my eye. Then, on the side, they came with these little golden heavly things that I've never heard of. Bognettes. Obviously I didn't cry, but you know, I cried.
Definitely one of the best breakfasts I have had. I got a standard breakfast with bacon & it was something special. My girlfriend had the Benedict Atlantique & everything was bursting with flavour; she got emotional. The server suggested French toast with pistachios & I typically don't get French toast because it's always heavy & feels like just eggy bread. However, what we got was different. The bread was light like a cloud, the pistachios were crunchy & tasty the cream was sweet but not overbearing & it had a blueberry compôte that made it a brighter dish. It was a huge surprise & definitely a great way to start the day!
