My boyfriend & I came here for lunch. We got there early to line up before the lunch rush, they don't take reservations. We waited 25 minutes.
We sat on the outside patio. It was hot, but we were in the shade which was nice.
We started off with an iced matcha & a cold brew. I've had better matcha elsewhere, so definitely try something else off the drink menu. The cold brew was good.
I got the classic eggs benedict. The portion looked small, but it was actually very filling. The ham did get a little salty towards the end, but still really good. The poached eggs & potatoes were amazing. The true star of the meal was the hollandaise sauce, it was super.
My boyfriend got the'have it all' breakfast. It came with eggs, sausage, ham, bacon, potatoes, beans, french toast, & a pancake. Everything was great, & it was nice to be able to try a wide variety of foods in one plate.
Staff was super friendly, & service was great. We would definitely come back.View more

L'Avenue is the first place we took my niece in Montreal. We wanted her to experience L' Avenue, from the good food & the great staff, the artand generally good vibes. I ordered the californian omelette. It was huge & light & fluffy at the same time. My husband & my niece both got the Tiramisu french toast. They both liked it.It did however reminded me of Eataly's Tiramisu pancakes which I loved. Needless to say, my niece loved her exprience at L' Avenue. for parking are few & far bet
Parking - it was only metered street parking, we came early so we found parking pretty easily but when we were leaving we could see that spaces were few. & far between.
Prices - Although I love this place, I do think it's a bit pricey for what it is.With that said, I consider this a tourist stop for Montreal.View more

Came here to eat 2 of the indecisive menu tiramisu french toast & Pistachio french toast, they were so bomb!! Potatoes are well cooked also not too greasy & good portion of meat we got bacon & sausage. The maple syrup was 100% & was so good to pair w the french toast :))
Will be back!!View more

Since there are no reservations, we waited for about 45 minutes for a table but it was SO WORTH IT. The French toast is divine & the portions were more than enough!! The whole place is a vibe. A must go-to!!View more

Amazing brunch spot! The Dubai Chocolate French Toasts, filled with pistachio butter & crunchy kataifi, were out of this world - I absolutely loved every bite!View more

Great brunch if a little on the pricey side. I hade the'indecisive' with sticky toffee pudding pancakes & they were incredible. I'm a huge fan of their indecisive options, because they combine traditional breakfast (eggs, sausage, bread) with a sweet option. Great sweat & savoury brunch! Others ordered the tiramisu French toast & eggs Benedict which were solid.
The ambiance is a little odd & a little intense for brunch but nothing that impacts the meals. The bathrooms are weird with lots of flashing disco lights. I thought they were fun but I can see people finding them stressful.View more

The food did not meet the hype. Our French toast had a soapy taste, the pancake was too dry, the potatoes very greasy. The best part of our brunch was the orange juice, tbh. Service was great & the atmosphere was nice once the restaurant quieted down a bit.View more

Hearty & heavy is a big word here. Come hungry. Pretty delicious. Had the indecisive with poached eggs, pistachio french toast with vegan patte. Pretty excellent.View more

For the most part the food was good. This was my second time here, I was just a bit disappointed in the french toast as it tasted quite dry.View more
Nova
10/10 experience. The food was gorgeously presented & delish, loved having the indecisive options as a sweet & savoury lover. Our server Yasmina was super sweet & personable while maintaining the professionalism expected from L'Avenue. Would recommend the pistachio French toast & sitting in Yasmina's section🙌.View more

Definitely check out Shakshouka & French toasts - they're amazing! Plus, most of their dishes are great for sharing. If they want to make their food even better, I'd recommend focusing on the fries. They were too greasy & not cooked well.View more

Wait was about 35 mins out front, they don't take your name down, you just stand in line & they seat you by how many are in your group as tables clear. Pecan French toast & dirty chai were yummy. Barbacoa breakfast dish was aight. Not much flavor goin on. Bathrooms are dope. Staff is super friendly. Overall was good! Just maybe not worth the wait / hype if the line is super long when you get there.View more

Our first time visiting Montreal, my family happened to pass by. It was a wonderful brunch. We especially loved the potatoes, eggs, & the wonderful varieties of flavors present in the French toast. Service was prompt & friendly. Would love to stop by again & try out more of the menu.View more

Went for the pecan pie French toast. Exceeded expectations. Most delicious breakfast ever!!! Bagel & homemade cream cheese was super yummy also. We actually ate there twice during our 4 days in Montreal. Superb both times. Awesome atmosphere, inside & out. We truly enjoyed both breakfasts here. Whether you need to or not, go to the restroom on the right. You're welcome. 😂View more

yea maybe it's a little overhyped & touristy but look at these french toasts. i have no complaints about the tiramisu 🙂↔️ only for how long i had to wait for it in line....so be prepared for that if you're going on a weekendView more

Amazing first brunch in Montreal. The panko crusted French toast used for the SweetSavory+ Crunchy was so unique & delicious. I loved the honey orange glazed ham & the thickness of the emmental cheese was absolutely perfect. The portions were massive we couldn't finish at all! Also their hot sauce is so freaking good I wish they sold it !! Bonus for the cretons that reminded me of pâté! Iced latte was nice love the sugar rim so tasty (but warning it melts down the glass while sitting on patio becomes quite messy & sticky)View more

Boyfriend & I had a fabulous brunch experience at L'Avenue. The eclectic decor & delicious food, especially the pistachio & tiramisu French toast, definitely seem worth the wait. If you're looking for a trendy brunch spot in Montreal with a creative menu, L'Avenue sounds like a great option.View more

After watching a YouTube review of this place I made it a "Must Go" stop on this trip. The place did NOT disappoint. It's a smaller place & the tables are packed in there but that really helps set the atmosphere. It's loud. For anyone that's noise-a-phobic this one may trigger you but I found it great & could clearly hear the person I was with. The service was fast & they have no problem with English for the travellers in town that struggle with ordering in French. The food was great & you can watch it being prepared at the open counter. A very eclectic place to eat at & a must go for anyone serious about breakfast & brunch.View more
Raymond
As far as I am concerned this was the best brunch & breakfast in North America. Periodt. I had the "I'll have it All" a few times & it's my favorite. Everything was wonderful, eggs, pancake, french toast & the bacon is cooked perfectly. The coffee was wonderful I had the "bowl" of latte. ONLY NEGATIVE - its not located in New York or closer to meView more
Andrea
Omg... where do we start Delicous food great vibe, a little tight, long line during lunch but worth the wait. If coming early or late no line but right at lunch it will be a line down the street. It moves fast but come patient 😅 No reservations first come first serve. Me; tiramisu indecisive: my favorite thing were the potatoes, wow! I got guac in place of pork on plate, & I was full off the main items. The French toast was killer & melted in our mouths, only ate half of it & one small slice of multigrain bread. I got a pistachio latte... 🤤 I mean whatttttt yeah the food coma was real! My hubby got eggs Benedict steak & eggs; loved all the food but vibe was his favorite! The atmosphere was his thing 🥳 Needless to say this is a MUST when in Montreal 🫡 MY respects L'AvenueView more

We went here today for brunch at around 10-11am & it was quite an experience. The initial wait was tough probably 25-30 minutes on a cold, windy, Saturday in Montreal but once we got in we were welcomed with warmth from the staff. The food was amazing & the portions were quite nice for the price. We had the Indecisive with strawberry & pistachio flavored french toast & we also ordered the duck with black truffle eggs benedict. It was all flavorful & I was pleasantly surprised with the experience. Everything was great but the thing I loved the most was the potatoes because they were cooked & seasoned with proper attention that you don't usually have with most breakfast/brunch restaurants.View more

The French toast Tiramisu, accompanied by a matcha latte, is a gastronomic masterpiece. The espresso-infused layers of French toast, draped in creamy mascarpone, blend seamlessly with the matcha latte's subtle bitterness. Customer service was great. The only thing I have to say is it's better to bring four people max.View more
Sasha
Extraordinarily good food, both savory & sweet. The shakshuka, the French toast, & the Benedicts were all exquisite, & the portions were more than we could finish. The weekend lines were very long, but we came early on a weekday & were seated without a wait.View more

My boyfriend & I saw this restaurant featured on "You Gotta Eat Here" & had to try it. We were not disappointed! Absolutely incredible & lives up to all the hype. He ordered the "Bobby Visite L'Espagne" & I had the eggs benedict "Sucre-Sale-Croustillant". My boyfriends meal was 3 eggs served on top of potatoes with chorizo sausage, spinach, & mushrooms. My meal...wow. Seriously wow. It was the epitome of gluttony. Two thick cut slices of french toast coated in panko bread crumbs before frying, served soaked in maple syrup with two eggs, gruyere cheese & hollandaise sauce. I was starving but definitely could not finish this meal. But each bite was total heaven.
I can't wait to go back. They have an extensive menu with lots of unique & delicious choices. This is my new favourite breakfast spot!
