Review Summary

Luncheonette is a popular, cozy diner in Montreal known for its classic atmosphere, vintage charm, and delicious, reasonably priced breakfast and lunch staples like burgers, sandwiches, and eggs. Many patrons praise the friendly, attentive staff and the high quality of the food, often highlighting the authentic, home-cooked feel of the dishes. While the overall experience is highly regarded by many regulars and visitors alike, there are occasional reports of inconsistent service, long wait times, and frustrations regarding the cash-only payment policy or limited communication about menu details. Despite some mixed feedback concerning operational pacing and table management, the restaurant remains a beloved local gem for those seeking a welcoming, unpretentious spot for a casual meal.

Cute little spot with a nice vibe. The burger was really good (though a bit on the small side if you're very hungry), & the hot dog was okay.
Service-wise, I had to take off a point due to lack of clear communication. There's no indication anywhere that the place is cash-only, which is important to know in advance (there is an ATM on site, but still). Also, the menu suggests you can swap the chips for coleslaw/beans/potatoes, but only when we got the bill did we realize it comes with an extra $2 charge.
Overall, a pleasant place with good food, but clearer information for customers would really improve the experience.

I felt something in my mouth so i spitted & checked. It was sharp plastic hard vinyl pieces. So i talked to waitress & she said she will let kitchen know. & i didn't hear anything after that… Usually we can hear at least'sorry' or ask if customer wants new one or refund or explain what it was from kitchen. They didn't do any of them.

We enjoyed vibe here, open kitchen looked clean when we enter, food was good, & waitress was very kind. But we are not gonna go again after we saw how they handle the food safety issue.

It was worth trying new place! Hope they handle these situations better next time to other customers. I can see some similar reviews.

Not for me. I had the breakfast sandwich & it made me want to gag. It's the pastrami inside. It's a flavor combination that does not work for me. & it was sweet. It was too much but you might like it. Everything was fresh. The potatoes that came with the dish were crisps, well seasoned & flavorful. Staff was great. Vibe is retro. It's a small place, hard to get too but if you live in the hood you should check it out. They have other things. Maybe this will be for you. I'm rooting for them.

Went to NDG Luncheonette for brunch on Sunday, & it was a fantastic experience. The service from the staff was amazing-friendly, attentive, & welcoming. The interior has a charming old-fashioned diner vibe that adds to the experience. Just a heads-up, it's a cash-only spot, which can be a bit inconvenient nowadays, but the quality of the food & atmosphere more than make up for it. Highly recommend it for a cozy & nostalgic brunch!
