Petinos is described as a busy, welcoming breakfast spot with large generous portions and meals that are consistently fresh and tasty; the service is repeatedly praised as friendly, attentive, and efficient, with staff who know the menu well and offer helpful recommendations; the menu is broad and accommodates many tastes, including gluten free and vegan options, and guests often say they would return and would recommend it for family meals, brunch with friends, or large groups; some comments note that the atmosphere can be loud and crowded and that service speed can vary during peak times, but overall the experience remains very positive across visits.
I wanted to start by saying the food is amazing. I ordered English McMuffin with a poached egg Hollandaise sauce & capers on top The fries were salty & crunchy. The fruit was fresh. The dessert was the best part. It had walnuts bananas chocolate wrapped up. I asked the server. What's the most liked dessert here? This is what he recommended the waiter was kind & nice. The atmosphere was friendly but the reason, I don't give it five star Is because it's not the waiter was too quick. I don't mind if he was too quick cuz honestly it's a very packed restaurant but he wasn't really paying attention have food in the atmosphere are very good but I just gave the atmosphere four stars because it's very loud & packed. That's not the restaurant's fault The food was amazing. It's just the service

We had an amazing experience at Petinos thanks to our waiter, Niko! He was incredibly friendly, attentive, & made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. He knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, & checked in just the right amount to make sure everything was perfect. His positive attitude really elevated the whole meal. If you're dining at Petinos, definitely ask for Niko-he's fantastic! cant wait to go back! made my day
The food at Petinos is consistently excellent, but what truly sets this place apart is the service. The service is top-notch, & a special thank you to Niko, our waiter-his personality genuinely enhanced our experience. We will definitely be coming back.
We've never had any issues with the food, & they're always happy to accommodate our requests when we want something prepared a certain way.
Customer service is A+++ every time. We're usually served by Jerry, & honestly the entire staff is amazing. They always take such great care of us & make us feel truly welcome.
This would have been a great experience, but about 1 hour & 10 minutes after being seated, our table was told by our waiter that we had to leave due to the long lineup outside (December 28, 2025, around 11:15 a.m.).
What was particularly frustrating is that other groups who had been seated longer than us were still allowed to finish their meals.
I have never been asked to vacate a table mid experience to accommodate a lineup, & it raises serious concerns about the restaurant's management & respect for its guests.

Kartik was a fantastic waiter food came out quick & coffees were continuously filled & pipping hot. He was super careful. If you happen to go to Petinos in DDO, make sure to ask for Kartik.
While traveling from Toronto to Montreal, we stopped here for breakfast & it turned out to be an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious & tasted very fresh. The fresh orange juice was a perfect start to the day.
A special shoutout to Kartik, who served us-he was extremely helpful, kind, & attentive, which made the experience even better.
Highly recommend this place for breakfast. Easily 10 out of 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nicholas was a fantastic waiter! Working in the restaurant industry myself, I know what good service is. Even with their Christmas chaos, food came out quick & coffees were continuously filled & pipping hot. He was super careful with our gluten allergy & checked in on us throughout our meal. If you happen to go to Petinos in DDO, make sure to ask for Nicholas.
Happy holidays!

For 23$ I had this huge plate. The steak Benedict without mushrooms cause im allergic. Was wonderfully i had to bring the second egg home. Highly recommend!
Went here for an office brunch with a group of over 30 people, & it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant was crowded, as it usually is, but the service was excellent. The staff were very friendly, patient, & attentive to our large group. The food was delicious & fresh. It took a bit of time to arrive, but that's understandable given how busy it was. Everyone enjoyed their meal, & the atmosphere was lively & welcoming.
Highly recommended, & we'll definitely be returning.
We came in for brunch today & had the joy to be served by Jerry! He gave us the golden standard of service & was super kind & attentive the whole time we were there, the food came quick & was delicious, the portions were huge & our coffee & water were always refilled without us even having to ask! We were given outmost care & felt so grateful for our time there, certainly one of the best experiences we've had & we will definitely come back after that perfect first impression, props to the team & to Jerry, you guys are doing an amazing job!
If I could give 6 stars, I would…
I went today for my lunch break & I was in shock of how AWESOME & efficient my waiter, Jerry, was.
He gave me one of the best services I've ever received at a breakfast restaurant. He's very considerate, attentive & generous.
Will definitely come back & bring my friends along!
