Visited this spot on October 2025 - Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, & friendly management despite a rough first impression at the counter.
Food: The sandwiches & fries were delicious, with generous portions - definitely worth it!
Service: Unfortunately, the'younger' cashier / barista seemed quite rude & uninterested. When we asked about our missing fries halfway through the meal, he simply said'I know,' which felt dismissive. Luckily, what seemed to be the manager was much friendlier & welcoming - smiling, attentive, & much easier to approach.
Atmosphere: Cozy & pleasant vibe, although there aren't many tables - more bar-style seating. Still, a nice spot to sit down & enjoy a good lunch.
Overall, despite the initial service hiccup, we really enjoyed our meal & will definitely be coming back!
Just had the greatest lunch ever! Every bite was absolute perfection-flavors on point, textures just right, & the kind of meal that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate it. & it was a winner for my picky son. Service was exceptional!
Got the charcuterie sandwich for lunch around 1 PM - friendly service, & got my meal very quickly! The sandwich has nice, crispy bread & the meats taste amazing. I would've added some more sauce or something as it's a little dry. I would recommend & I plan to come back & try others!
Visiting this cafe in the heart of Montreal was such a amazing experience, finding an authentic lunch style sandwich places is very difficult when you are just visiting a city, & when I found this place I was so lucky. The design & layout of this place was well thought out, the location is in a commercial area in the heart of downtown Montreal where is very inviting & designed very well. The service was fast, & everything was very fresh & made with high-quality ingredients. The pricing was very competitive & didn't hurt the pocket as much. There are options to choose from. Also, depending on what you're vegetarian to having even steak. I would give this a five out of five just for the authenticity & the quality that they're serving at the price point. Whenever I am back in the city, I will definitely be visiting this café again for the fries also were amazing.
I had a smoked salmon sandwich with truffle fries for lunch on a Friday. Pros: The sandwich was very filling & tasty. Ingredients tasted fresh, especially the bread. The café also has an incredibly cute interior. The young woman who works at the counter, I think a local college student, was very kind & friendly. Unfortunately I didn't catch her name, but she kindly wrote down a few off-the-beaten-path spots for me to check out when I mentioned I was visiting Montréal from New York City. Cons: My only critique of the food is that, as other reviewers have mentioned, the portion of fries served as a side is a bit excessive. It's not a side of fries but an entire basket filled to the brim. I was only able to finish maybe 1/4 of the fries. & I'm someone who loves fries! I know that potatoes are relatively inexpensive, but it does seems wasteful since I doubt many people take a to-go box for all those leftover fries & they probably end up in the trash. Overall a good lunch experience! I'd love to visit again to try some of their other menu items, especially their more Italian offerings.

My director & I went to try it out for lunch one day. We absolutely loved it & enjoyed every bite, so she had it catered for our daycare to celebrate teacher appreciation. All of us educators enjoyed it very much. Delicious, healthy, comfort food. Italian style! I highly recommend.
