Petinos likes to pride itself in it's over attentive service and (almost) endless variety of dining options. Petinos has something for everyone. Whether you're craving something sweet, something savoury, or even a little bit of both, we've got you covered.
Petinos in Laval is described as busy and popular, with generous portions and fast service that helps manage the crowds, and the menu covers hearty breakfast and brunch favorites from waffles and crepes to eggs benedict and other comfort dishes. The food is frequently praised for flavor and presentation, with soups, crepes and waffles highlighted as standout items, and portions are consistently described as large and reasonably priced. Service is a frequent bright spot, with staff noted for friendliness, attentiveness and quick, efficient service even during peak hours. Still, reviews mention the crowds and the no reservation policy leading to lineups, some pricing confusion on modifications and upcharges, and a few run ins with less satisfying service or management. Occasionally hygiene or conduct concerns are raised, but many guests still report a welcoming atmosphere and plan to return. Overall, Petinos is regarded as a reliable family friendly breakfast destination with a warm vibe and a consistent kitchen that draws repeat visits.
Been there for the first time at the end of 2022 & never stopped coming back. Breakfast & brunch are the most enjoyable meal for me & um super picky with my first meal. At Petinos you can get healthy meals & also the best desserts, they're pancakes with Oreo & Nutella is to die for. Costumer service is out of this world, Franca is the owner & always so receptive with everyone. I couldn't recommend a better place than this.

We absolutely LOVE this breakfast place. The food is always on point & delicious! Generous portions, kind staff & delicious food. Kid friendly as well.
We're always on the hunt for a great family breakfast spot, & Petinos in laval hit the spot.
Their fried chicken waffle eggs bene was exactly what we were craving - crispy chicken, soft waffles, & creamy hollandaise. The peanut butter & Nutella waffles were also the perfect finish. There are so many great options on the menu, & their service is extremely fast! Definitely going to be our go-to family breakfast spot!!
The quality of Kathy's service was incredible & the quality of the food is absolutely phenomenal. Who would've thought that the best tasting cream of broccoli & cheddar soup would be found at a breakfast place of all places?! Big portions for reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

Such a great breakfast spot! The food was delicious & beautifully presented. Mikayla went above & beyond to make sure we were comfortable & happy. Her kindness & professionalism truly stood out. Thank you for the amazing service!
The food was excellent & our server provided outstanding service. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was ruined by the manager's unprofessional behavior when we politely asked to change tables. Her tone made us feel embarrassed in front of other guests, & it was clear we weren't welcome. Because of this, we've decided not to return. We are here to enjoy a meal we are purchasing, not asking for a favor. Our money entitles us to fair service. Management may not care, but we'll take our business elsewhere - to a place where customers are valued & made to feel comfortable.

Very good place for breakfast! The service was excellent. Staff very friendly. We will return back again!
Just had a perfect breakfast, food was delicious & fresh. However, I can't say the same for the service. The waitress with purple hair really made the experience unpleasant.

Food is average for a breakfast place, but the place is so always crowded that it is a nuisance to eat here.
Edit: tried it again a few weeks ago, & none of the issues were resolved & instead we handed up with a snappy & unprofessional waiter who only calmed down after I stared at him for 30 seconds without saying anything. Yes, the place was crowded, but it is no reason to act this waybeith guests.
I don't usually write reviews but , there is no better breakfast place in my opinion. I go weekly & the food is so consistent & amazing & the service ,especially the 2 brothers that I always look forward to seeing. Franca is always smiling & polite even though she runs around making sure everything is good. Look forward to my weekends & start them off at Petinos . Good job guys 👍.

Had the crepe with grilled chicken & mushroom. It was fine.
Went another time & tried their waffle cheescake.
Unfortunately, there's always a lineup in breakfast places like this that don't take reservations.
We were'forced' to eat under their tent as they had no place inside. It was windy, & the tent was always moving near our table. It was annoying.
I went to Petinos Sunday morning. They used to have on their menu 2 eggs, choice of meat, potatoes with a banana Nutella crepe. I noticed that it wasn't on the menu anymore so I was asking the waitress if that same platter only came with the banana pancake if I can have a Nutella crepe instead. She didn't answer me she just wrote down my order. When I got my plate they made the pancake into a crepe with Nutella. It was thin & hard. & the sausages were horrible. They changed them. I think there veal sausages now. I used to have recommended this as a good breakfast place but now I would not.
We recently revisited this breakfast spot for the first time in over seven years, & it was just as fantastic as we remembered! Having lived in Montreal, this was always one of our go-to places, & we were thrilled to see that the quality, atmosphere, & service have remained top-notch.
The food was fresh, delicious, & perfectly prepared-just like in the past. From the rich, flavorful coffee to the perfectly cooked eggs, Crêpe & fluffy French toast, everything was spot on. The portions were generous, & the ingredients tasted high-quality.
The service was warm & welcoming, making us feel right at home despite the time away. It's rare to find a restaurant that maintains such consistency over the years, but this place has truly stood the test of time.
We'll definitely be back again-& hopefully won't wait another seven years this time!
