Reviews describe L'Avenue as a lively, popular brunch spot with large, generous portions and a creative menu, where dishes like eggs Benedict variations, shakshuka, and sweet pancakes receive praise, and the vibe, decor, and friendly staff are frequently highlighted. The experience can vary with busy lines on weekends and occasional slow or impersonal service, but many guests say the food is consistently delicious and the drinks well made, and the overall atmosphere is worth the wait, with some noting dietary options such as gluten free or vegan can be limited. Most leave satisfied and plan to return, making it one of the city's top brunch destinations.
INCROYABLE ! L'un des meilleurs brunch que j'ai testé à Montréal… le « bénédictes steak & eggs » a été mon plat préféré !!! 👀
Les quantités sont incroyables, les assiettes sont belles & bonnes, le personnel sont super gentils & accueillant..
Il y a eu un peu d'attente quand nous y sommes passés (30 min environ un dimanche à 12h avant d'avoir une table)
Je recommande à 100% & je reviendrais ! 🤪🥞

Had a great time, perfect brunch to bring teenagers. Took us 30+ minutes outside to get a table for 5 on a Saturday, be bear smart, arrive early & enjoy.
😍 You can't believe how good this place is. Everyone was really satisfied with their brunch, & it was such a great spot to hang out & enjoy the meal.
There were so many options to choose from, & everything we tried was great. Definitely a place I'd come back to.
We loved this place, we ordered the Dallas & Istanbul special items fo brunch & enjoyed! Just beware that the portions can be huge. We def could go with 1 item for two as we both had leftovers.
Also this place is huge, don't get overwhelmed by the lineup, it goes perfect fast.
Very good experience, I had a friend reunion brunch, & it was the perfect place for that. Their got sauce is pretty good & matches super well with the egg & the hollandaise sauce. The matcha soy latte was good has well, I willl definitely go back!
Great portions. Good value for money. Creative brunch takes that are delicious. Friendly servers. Would recommend on a weekday especially due to the restaurant not taking reservations.
We visited this brunch spot back in 2021 & made it a point to return during our recent trip to Montreal. The food & menu are just as awesome as we remembered. Everything was fresh, well prepared, & full of flavour.
There was a short wait to get seated, but it was totally worth it. The service was top notch throughout our visit, & a special mention to our waiter who kindly packed our leftovers for us without even being asked. Definitely one of me favorite brunch places!
This is a fabulous restaurant for a brunch. The food is out of this world. We had the eggs Benedict with steak & the eggs Benedict with truffles & duck. Portions are large! I can't describe how delicious this was. The service was incredible considering how busy the staff is. This is the place to go for brunch for sure.
This is a brunch place that gives exceptional quality food & it's so worth it ❤?❤? The venue itself has a very classic look & the staff is super welcoming, gracious & give very good brunch recommendations 😇😇 We started with coffee & then I had the Rejuvenate smoothie which was so delicious ❤?❤? However, it was the main meal that we totally loved - Bobby Discovers Istanbul for me while my partner had I'll have it All 🙏🙏 Each bite whether it was the chicken patties or the naan or sausage or bacon or French toast was beyond delicious! Our full compliments to the chef for making such exquisite food with so much love & care 🙏🙏 I understand why there's usually such a big lineup but it's so worth it at this 11/10 brunch place ❤?❤?

Probably the best brunch spot I've ever been to. I'd come back to Quebec just for this place! The vibes were fun inside & our waiter was so nice. GET THE LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY COMPOTE! You won't regret it!
An amazing experience from start to finish. L'Avenue is without a doubt one of the best spots for brunch in Montréal. The atmosphere is vibrant, colorful, & full of energy, with super-cool decor & friendly, fast service even when the place is packed.
Have lived in the area for five years now, & we just keep returning to L'avenue. It's become our favourite brunch spot. The portions are so generous, & it's a super comfy place! Don't believe the other reviews that this is a tourist trap-it's a super high quality brunch place, & one of the absolute best on Notre Dame Ouest. We always get the St Ambroise eggs Benedict & the « I'll have it all », which reminds me a lot of a full English breakfast. Phenomenal!!
