This was my first experience as a tourist. People are friendly & polite. I'm not a French speaker. However, I did try to speak French. They were very accommodating with in speaking English . The food is organic & flavourful.

Nice table cleanup, prep outside. Single diner. I ordered classic scrambled eggs, sausage, brown toast. 30 minutes later asked me if I ordered bacon. 10 more minutes later, got overeasy eggs, sausage, french bread. Then got my eggs corrected. Then, got my brown bread. I asked for Jam. They asked if I want peanut butter, I said"no". I got peanut butter & jam. I think all of this would be solved by using a notepad when taking orders.

Great place for brunch or breakfast if you want to explore new flavors but because of its' popularity, it at times, the lineup can be super long. Place: Open floor plan so noise level can be high, go for a booth if you can. Decor is interesting. Service: The service is awesome, Voula is attentive, friendly & super nice! She made our brunch very enjoyable. Thanks 😊 Food: You can try the regular breakfast but for a truely good experience try the specialties. We had Red Shakshuka, Truffle Duck, Chakchouka & Pecan Pie French Toast (French toast are super big!) PS Try their smoothies Conclusion: You can have a regular breakfast or have an awesome breakfast. Either way, you won't be disappointed.

Not a lot of options on the menu for meat lovers. Eggs, bacon & ham all had the same back taste like beef grease from all being cooked on the same griddle. Not good. The Pecan Pie French Toast was not that great, simple pecan pie filling place in the middle. A bit boring. No fruit on plates. Server & hostess were nice & polite. Place was clean.

Portion sizes are too big ... food is good. Place is mostly crowded. Saint Ambroise Bénédicte has tooooo many onions. French toasts are good but the portion size !! Omg ...

Great service, great atmosphere, & the food is some of the best breakfast food I've had. I chose the lemon ricotta pancakes from the indecisive menu, & my friend chose the tiramisu French toast. It was absolutely delicious. I also had the Oreo milkshake, which was phenomenal - tasted just right, not too sweet - great consistency. The service was great too, the team really knew how to coordinate & we were well taken care of. Pro-tip - better to arrive before 10:30am on the weekends. It was nice & quiet when we came in at 10:15. At around 11, the rush started out of nowhere & was busy until we left around 12:45. Will definitely be back! If you don't find parking in the parking lot, the side streets are a great option.

Where do we start The staff were exceptional - so kind & responsive!! I had the pistachio latte & it was amazing!! Not too sweet & loads of crushed pistachios. Absolutely wonderful. My daughter had the Rejuvenate smoothie - wow what a beautiful presentation & burst of fresh fruit. My hubby got Huevos Rancheros - packed with fresh ingredients, a huge serving & extra hot sauce! My daughter got the strawberry nutella French Toast & the portion size was unreal!!! She could only eat one piece but was in Nutella heaven. I got the Pink Salmon Eggs Benny - 2 poached organic eggs, smoked salmon, citrus, ginger & chives cream cheese, avocadoes, marinated onions, topped with a beet juice infused hollanddaise sauce, on a bagel. Quite possibly the best EB I've ever had! Absolutely incredible!!! The homemade breakfast potatoes are soooo savoury!! A decadent treat for all of us. We literally stumbled upon this place - from the zany decor to the fun vibe, customer service & amazing food - we highly recommend & will be coming back!! Thank you for your attention to detail! These Yellowknifers will be back again!!

Food: Pecan French toast breakfast plate was delicious. On the sweet side, but was full of flavour & topped with a delicious syrup that left me wanting to lick the plate. Potatoes were better than you're ready for, not fried but maybe pan tossed with herbs. Bacon & eggs were yummy as a staple side that went very well with the baguette to make a sandwich. Drinks: I ordered a chai latte & the small was a great portion, could barely finish it after the large breakfast plate. Wasn't artificially sweet & I added my own sugar - not very spicy but good nonetheless. My souse ordered a hot chocolate that was good as well. Atmosphere: Playlist was a little odd, sounded like someone hooked up their Spotify & played their liked songs on random. The volume was too loud & hard to hear each other talking. Otherwise good for families & kids. Entertaining wall decor & stuff hanging from ceiling.

First time at this restaurant on a Sunday morning, 20 minute wait... not too bad for almost being 11am. Great upbeat atmosphere & fresh look for a place to have brunch. My server was very pleasant & visited my table multiple times to refresh our coffee, water & to see if all was good, & she spoke to us in french & english. The quality of the food was above par from what you would expect from a brunch place. Albeit they had a couple lower priced dishes on the menu, most of the dishes were a little on the high side, but imo its a fare exchange for better quality food & service. I would definitely return.
