Guests frequently praise the extensive menu, generous portion sizes, and delicious food items such as pancakes, crepes, crispy bacon, and seasoned potatoes.

Such a great find! Calorie per dollar could not find better value & was so so tasty! Loved the savory potatos & their pita was delicious too. All my friends got a variety of food - crepe, french toast, omelette, feast numbers 2 & 4 & everyone loved their food. Service was fast & attentive & friendly & they sat our table for 8 quickly on a busy Saturday brunch!

This is a must do place for meals in Montreal! We dined there three times during our stay & we're never disappointed. The food is magnificent, & the prices are very reasonable. You must eat at this place to believe it! & you won't believe how beautifully the food is presented!

Une véritable immersion dans le temps ! Le Vieux Saint-Laurent est une adresse qui semble avoir été épargnée par les années, conservant ce cachet unique de'dîner à l'ancienne' que l'on apprécie tant. Le menu est une expérience en soi : il est si vaste qu'il mériterait presque d'être lu comme un roman ! Malgré cette profusion de choix, la cuisine reste bonne & constante, ce qui est une belle prouesse.

?En ce qui concerne le service, l'accueil est aimable, mais nous avons trouvé qu'il manquait d'un peu d'attention, surtout compte tenu du faible taux d'occupation de la salle lors de notre passage. Pour illustrer, lors d'un petit accident avec nos enfants, nous avons dû nous débrouiller nous-mêmes pour trouver des serviettes supplémentaires après le nettoyage de la table.

?C'est un lieu au charme authentique & à l'ambiance particulière, où l'on mange bien. Avec un service un peu plus aux aguets pour les détails, l'expérience serait tout simplement parfaite. Une adresse qui mérite le détour pour son caractère unique.
