Alyssa JP & Bianca were amazing. I was here for dinner & it was so good! The drinks were 10/10 & honestly, this kind of quality is so hard to find now. Thanks guys! ❤?
Unfortunately I had a couple of really bad service experiences. One of which the server forgot several items - including a drink- & was chatting with her colleague when I tried to get their attention - which is fine but, when I kindly asked for the missing items they said'ok jai oublie' in a very passive aggressive tone. Kind of mediocre. Another time someone butt in line in front of my friend & the cafe attendant ( I think the same person ) served the other person first ?!?! She waited but, when her turn came the server snarled at her… anyway. I like the evening menu & I've had some good experiences -including good service experience- in the past but, not recently.
Great restaurant, i love going there for brunch. The service is always amazing & the food is great, everything tastes fresh. The coffee is so good too.
Went last night for dinner. My wife & I had the menu a partager. Wonderful experience from start to finish & the food was absolutely delicious. Very reasonably priced considering the great level of care & quality of ingredients. We are new to the area & excited to have found such a gem of a neighbourhood spot. We will be back!
Wonderful, airy atmosphere with lots of light. High quality, well-seasoned ingredients: tofu, bacon, avocado, toast (you know how you get the flimsiest Pom toast at some brunch joints?). Beats a chain brunch spot in every way.
