Since 1989, Milestones has been a leader in the casual dining scene in Canada by doing things a little differently. The Milestones experience is built on value, hospitality, comfort, and delicious globally-inspired cuisine, all served in an atmosphere perfect for good times with friends. A warm and welcoming place to celebrate important occasions, enjoy a Sunday brunch, or grab a drink with friends for happy hour, Milestones satisfies all cravings at the table. Available for dine-in, takeout, and delivery, your table or order is always waiting for you.
Milestones is often described as a solid option with good value and a broad menu, in a stylish space that suits pre-event dinners and casual meals alike. The ambiance and decor receive frequent praise, and the service is generally friendly and efficient, even when the restaurant is busy. Food is usually tasty and portions are generous, with popular choices including burgers, seafood starters, and varied mains, though several reviews note inconsistency between visits, with occasional over-seasoned, under-seasoned, or undercooked dishes and longer waits during brunch or peak times. Some guests find the prices a bit high for the portion size, and a few meals don’t meet expectations for the price point, particularly for steak or certain entrees. The Laval location’s proximity to Place Bell and free indoor parking are pluses, but game nights can bring crowds and can affect pacing. Overall, Milestones is viewed as a reliable pick with many positive experiences and a willingness to return, while recognizing that experiences can vary by day and by menu item.
I've visited this location a few different times, & while I wanted to give it a fair chance, my experiences have been inconsistent.
Dinner/Lunch Experience:
The food itself was generally goodd, around a 7.5/10 - but the service is consistently very slow, even when the restaurant isn't busy. On each visit, there were maybe 2-4 tables occupied, yet orders still took longer than expected. There were also repeated errors, such as wrong or missing drinks or items. The staff were polite, but organization & attention to detail clearly need improvement.
Brunch Experience:
Unfortunately, brunch was a completely different story & not a good one. My group waited 45 minutes for our food, despite the restaurant being almost empty. Midway through the wait, our server came back to say one of the dishes couldn't be prepared as ordered because of an ingredient issue. The confusing part is that the menu didn't even list that ingredient. After some back-&-forth between the waiter, manager, & chef, we were told the menu was right after all, we don't need to change it.
By the time our meals finally arrived, they were disappointing; either bland, watery or way too salty. None of the three guests enjoyed their food. Based on that experience, I'd rate the brunch 3/10 & honestly wouldn't recommend it.
Overall:
Food (Lunch/Dinner): 7.5/10
Food (Brunch): 3/10
Service Speed: 4/10
Milestones Laval has potential, their regular menu is decent but the inconsistency in service & food quality, especially at brunch, makes it hard to recommend without major improvements.

Je ne peux pas me plaindre du service. L'ambiance était bien! Mais j'ai commandé une surlonge saignante & on ne me bernera pas, c'était de la bavette. La sauce était un peu liquide mais goûteuse. Frites très salées mais on aime ça.
We came here for a friend's birthday but were underwhelmed by the food. The service was friendly & attentive, & the ambiance was elegant, which we appreciated. However, the food itself was disappointing. We ordered the 1989 Burger & the Roasted Mushroom Soup. The burger was dry, while both the fries & the soup were over-seasoned & too salty for the palate. We hope the restaurant takes this as constructive feedback to improve the quality & balance of flavours, so as to offer customers a more consistent dining experience across all touchpoints.
We walked in at 7:30 & just left (8:04pm)
Our waiter couldn't be bothered to
We ordered cocktails & an appetizer
I asked for a napkin 3 times & he never remembered
So we asked another waiter for the bill & left
He was too busy socializing with the barmaid to look after his customers
So went elsewhere for service & dinne
Lundi fête du travail belle trouvaille du restaurant Milestones nous avons eu un service impeccable le serveur Yassen était très gentil & bienveillant les assiettes copieuse & savoureuse à un prix raisonnable.

Expérience très mitigé. J'y suis allé pour un brunch une fête d'enfant avec mes amis, tout était très bien niveau service. Super attentionné & l'ambiance était bien.
Par contre, niveau cuisine grosse déception. 100% des oeufs n'étaient pas cuit correctement. Oeufs bénédictines cuits durs, oeufs tournés version mollet & pas cuit du tout dans la shakshouka. Les steaks avaient l'air bien, mais niveau déjeuner c'était zéro.
Je serais prêt à donner une autre chance le midi ou le soir, cest probablement très bien.
Le menu est bof, rien d'innovant. Le service est bof, des jeunes filles polies habillées en noir, rien de différent. Les assiettes sont bof, c'est ce a quoi on s'attend, rien d'étonnant, rien de différent. C'est du Elixor très dilué.

Chaque visite est une très belle expérience. Le service des employés est satisfaisant, mais celui de monsieur Lucas en particulier est exceptionnel. Il fait preuve d'une grande politesse & d'une très belle attention envers les clients. La nourriture est bonne, la quantité est suffisante, & la terrasse est invitante & reposante.
Amazing Amazing restaurant! Our waiter did everything perfectly! Jerome was super kind & attentive.
We came across this gem by accident & let me just say it was marvellous! Beautiful place, elevated vibe & & delicious food! Milestones definitely made the top of our list!! Until next time❤?
