Tasty homemade meals. Awesome potatoes!Voir plus
Great restaurant!!! Fantastic food; We had the rib tsak tsak & the breakfast poutine & it was just perfect. Fresh crunchy potatoes, perfectly cooked eggs, fall of the bone (& perfectly seasoned) rib meat, even the salad was very refreshing with a delicious house vinaigrette. Home made toast was a great addition. They even make their own almond milk- which levelled up our lattes!! Very friendly owner. Spacious & welcoming atmosphere. Don't skip on this spot, it is worth it! It's a shame we hadn't come across it sooner but now that we have, we are eager for our next visit! 10/10 go!Voir plus
Yesterday, as my friend & I were on our way to grab a matcha at a nearby cafe, we passed by L'Inconnu. We both realized that we were craving something heartier than just a drink, so we spontaneously decided to pop in & check it out - & I'm so glad we did!

In depth review:
Ambiance
From the moment I walked through the door, I was immediately struck by the warm, cozy atmosphere. The space is perfect for a relaxed brunch, with soft lighting, simple yet charming decor, & a laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home. It's intimate, but not cramped - perfect for both solo visits & catching up with friends. There are also plenty of mirrors around, which makes for some great selfie opportunities! The ambiance is ideal for a casual gathering, but it could easily be a great spot for a classy birthday brunch or a special celebration. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, & genuinely knowledgeable about the menu, which made our experience even more enjoyable.
Menu & Food Quality
Drinks:
I went for the Jus au Fruit de la Passion ($6.95), & my friend opted for the Jus de Corossol ($6.95). Both juices were fresh, vibrant, & packed with flavor - the perfect refreshing start to the hearty brunch we were about to dive into.
Main Dish:
In the mood for something comforting & hearty, I ordered the CÔTES LEVÉES STYLÉES ($24.95), & wow, this dish blew me away. The pork ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, perfectly cooked, & seasoned with ginger in a way that was spot on. The balance between sweet & spicy was impeccable, & the meat practically melted in my mouth.
The dish came with poached eggs, which added a rich creaminess that paired wonderfully with the savory pork. The homemade walnut bread was a lovely addition, & the roasted potatoes were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside - the perfect contrast to the richness of the rest of the dish. The salad, with its fresh greens & sweet citrus dressing, offered a light & bright contrast to the heavier elements on the plate.
& then there was the hot sauce on the table. It was absolutely delicious - the perfect kick without overpowering the flavors of the dish. I loved it so much that I'll definitely be back to buy a bottle to take home!
This dish was hands down the highlight of my brunch, & I can't wait to go back for those ribs again. If you love flavorful, hearty dishes, you simply can't go wrong with this one.
Dessert:
Since it was brunch, I couldn't resist indulging in something sweet, so I ordered the Choco-Oreo Crêpe ($10). It was everything I hoped for - rich, indulgent, & the perfect way to end the meal. Definitely worth saving room for!
Service
The service was top-notch. Our waitress, a sweet Madagascan woman, was warm, friendly, & attentive. She made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. What really stood out, though, was how passionate she was about the restaurant & the food. That kind of genuine enthusiasm really enhanced the whole experience & made it feel more personal. It's rare to get such thoughtful, authentic service, & it made our time at L'Inconnu even more enjoyable.
Pricing
The pricing was very reasonable for the quality & portion sizes. It's in line with what you'd expect for a great brunch spot in Montreal, & I definitely felt like I got my money's worth. The portions were generous, & I left feeling fully satisfied, without breaking the bank.
Conclusion
I'm so happy I stumbled upon L'Inconnu. The food, service, & atmosphere came together to create an unexpectedly wonderful brunch experience. I'll definitely be going back soon to try more dishes - especially the shakshuka! If you're ever in the area & craving a fresh, satisfying meal, I highly recommend giving it a try. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty brunch or something sweet, L'Inconnu has got you covered!Voir plus
You guys are not going to believe this, but... out of all the amazing restaurants that are around the area, I chose this one restaurant to eat right before heading to NY. The reason why it got my attention was the only two bad reviews it had. 🤣 I read the bad reviews & it was just people being petty & mean, so I was like... let's go here.
Omg!!! The food was amazing. This is going to be my favorite spot from now on. The menu has so many good things, it was hard for us to choose. The customer service it's so nice (hello, it's Canada, of course they are nice)Voir plus

Best breakfast poutine that I have ever had. I'm not exaggerating. I'm from out of town & stumbled upon this place with friends back in 2021. We all tried the breakfast poutine & fell in love. I haven't found a better one since. Until January of 2024. I went back to this restaurant again while in town & they improved the poutine by adding salmon. What a blessing to my day.Voir plus
