A busy place. After having breakfast here we understood why. The food was quality made & really delicious. Service was great. Highly recommended, we look forward to returning next time we're in Montreal.

When I was looking for breakfast spots during my visit to Montreal last year, Olive & Gourmando came up a lot. & just a few blocks walk from my hotel in Old Montreal, I had to give it a try. My sleep cycle was still a little messed up so I got there early before they opened, & ended up being first in line as people quickly began to que behind me. My timing was good as they quickly filled up the small space once they opened the doors. I tend to lean more savory for breakfast, but looking at their menu I couldn't resist a trip to the sweet side. The item that had caught my eye in my research, & featured in many reviews, was was called Sweet Ricotta. The description was housemade ricotta, honey, orange zest, Maldon salt. Served with brioche bread. Tourist priced at $17.95, but I had to give it a try. Overall I liked it, but I did have some notes. The ricotta was very tasty & paired well with the sticky honey as well as the orange zest, which was a definite flavour enhancer. My note would be the bread, which needed more of a toast & crunch. It was too bready for my liking, & so wasn't the vessel I wanted to transport the sweet ricotta to my belly. With better toasted bread though, this could be killer.

We went on a Friday morning & there was about a 10 min wait. We both got the weekend special, banoffee french toast. The toffee sauce was amazing, especially with the whipped labneh (tastes like regular yogurt to me, which I like). The French toast was also good, but the edges a little too crunchy, especially given that the crumbles on the side already give it a crunch. The orange juice was one of the best I've had (tasted like two oranges were just squeezed in there) but also one of the most expensive ($8 for a small cup)! In the end, everything was good but more expensive than we were expecting for a breakfast. It's busy & lively inside, we were sitting quite close to the table next to us. Service is good. I would definitely want to come back to try some of the pastries (the kouign-amann & the blueberry cornbread looked really good).

Really hip, cozy eatery. Creative plating & interesting menu. Breakfast all day but best of all you feel you’re in a place that Montrealers go. I’ll go back & can’t wait
