Food was very tasty & the waiters & waitresses are very nice. Unfortunately one of our plate came without the right kind of bread, the brought the good one but the food went cold & they happily re-heated everything.
I had such a lovely brunch with two of my girlfriends! We were warmly welcomed & served by Voula, the manager, who was absolutely wonderful 😊 She was attentive throughout our visit, checking in often to make sure we had everything we needed. I especially appreciated her thoughtful touch when she noticed I was sharing my lemon blueberry pancakes 🍋🫐 with my friends & brought us extra sharing plates without us even asking. Small gestures like that really make the experience special. Great food, great atmosphere, & excellent service - we'll definitely be back!
J'ai adoré mon déjeuner. L'ambiance & l'atmosphère était super. Les oeufs béné classique c'est à se rouler part terre. Voula la gérante est super acceuillante. Le café aux pistaches WOW! Je recommende fortement L'Avenue sur St Martin a Laval. A quand un resto à Québec.
I've been wanting to try this spot for a while & finally decided to go since we were in the area & it made for a nice birthday brunch. The Laval location has a cozy vibe, the décor is stylish, & the service was warm & attentive.
Food-wise, it was a mixed experience:
- The Indecisive Sticky Toffee Pancake: very sweet, & I could only manage a few bites (3/5). Definitely one for people with a big sweet tooth.
- Classic Benedict: excellent, soft buttery English muffins with ham, egg, & sauce all perfectly balanced. Great texture & taste (4.5/5).
- Potatoes: perfectly seasoned & crisp, easily the standout side (5/5).
- Latte: unfortunately a letdown, felt watered down & lacked depth of flavour (2/5).
I also wanted to try the matcha & strawberry drink on the menu, but it wasn't available, which was a little disappointing.
Overall, despite a few misses, the food was enjoyable & I'd still recommend checking this place out especially for brunch. I'd definitely come back to try more from the menu.
Je tiens à rehausser un peu la note générale de ce restaurant qui mérite plus que 4.1*
The service was really good, i have to say also that the environment was very calm at 8:30am on a sunday morning. The whole meal was made with great quality ingredients. & globaly very satisfied, a big plus is the real maple syrup on the table that in my opinion is a shame for other restaurant in Quebec not to have any.. maybe the only down side for us was that the potatoes have a little bit too much added to it, too much garlic, I would personaly prefer it tasty but more simply seasoned. I strongly advise people to go discover it on an early subday morning after opening when you have very little people there, it IS an enjoyable experience !

L'indécis avec les crêpes sticky toffee pudding… WoW! Un vrai délice, absolument décadent!!!!! Même avis sur L'indécis avec crêpes aux bleuets & citron!! Deux grands coups de coeur!!
Nourriture incroyable, service incroyable de Marie-Lyne elle nous à proposée des items sur le menu qui correspondait à nos attentes. 10/10 musique entraînante en arrière plan qui met de l'ambiance dans l'endroit
