I've been to this restaurant many times now & today I got served by Sabrina & the quality of her service is what prompted me to write this google review: she was very attentive to our table, always making sure we're not missing anything & even managed to get us places on the terrace even though it was pretty full. I wish every restaurants had service like that. Highly recommended if you like trying different cuisine whilst having a good experience.

Great Mediterranean restaurant in Griffintown. I've tried both brunch & supper & the food is simply amazing! Host even accommodated us even though I had reserved the wrong Friday night for party of 5 at peak hours.

🔥 Shay - Brunch goals, achieved.

Shay knows how to deliver a proper brunch.

We started with the ricotta pancakes-fluffy, rich, & stacked high with whipped cream, nuts, & a touch of magic. Easily some of the best I've had.

But the surprise standout? The lamb eggs Benedict. Perfectly poached eggs over tender lamb with a hollandaise that hit just right. Bold, rich, & totally addictive.

Everything else-from the pillowy pita & labneh to the spiced sausage & iced coffee-just tied it all together.

The vibe was dialed-in too: modern, lively, but still chill enough to enjoy the meal without feeling rushed.

10/10 brunch spot. Will definitely be back.
