Tsak Tsak gathers praise for a warm, friendly vibe and a menu built around in house made dishes and Madagascar inspired flavors, with breakfast favorites like poached eggs and the saumon chic and other dishes that feel thoughtfully balanced; everything is made in house from condiments to the mayo, and house hot sauce and bright beverages like soursop juice and mint lemonade are frequently highlighted as standouts. The atmosphere is described as bright and welcoming, with attentive staff and, when present, a pleasant outdoor terrace, making it feel like a homey spot for brunch, lunch, or dinner in the Mile End area. While a few reviews note occasional freshness issues on certain components such as English muffins or fruit in bowls, the overall sentiment remains that Tsak Tsak delivers flavorful, high quality Malagasy inspired cuisine at good value, with many mentioning they would return for the breakfast, the flavors, and the warm service.
my girlfriend & i came here yesterday for a late brunch after fabergé was closed & it was so wonderful! all of the food was made in house -- down to the mayo -- & it was truly delicious. we both got the breakfast place (glouton) -- comes with everything you'd want on a breakfast plate plus a salad. good coffee as well, & gluten free options :) we definitely underestimated this place when we first saw it online but we will be back!
Excellent endroit pour bruncher ou dîner (& souper?). Service toujours accueillant. Plats savoureux & santé. Endroit indiqué pour les rencontres avec des amis. Proprios sympathiques. Situé à deux pas du métro Laurier. Près de l'intersection Laurier & boul. St-Laurent, dans le Mile-End. Je vous le recommande!

Great restaurant with a variety of choices for brunch & dinner. They have a special menu for traditional Madagascar dishes. Very authentic & delicious! We ordered the beef & porc & were very pleased. We also got the passion fruit juice & it was so refreshing. Nice waiter, good decor inside & an outdoor terrace (on a noisier street) would definitely come back!
A very warm, friendly place with a great selection of breakfast / brunch options. Servings are generous, & prices are fair. Ingredients are always fresh, presentation is good, & the service is fast, friendly, & attentive. Breads, including the English muffins which are the base for their Eggs Benedict, are baked fresh in-house. The restaurant is run by a super friendly & hard-working family. I always stop by here when I'm in town.

Super cute resto de brunch & lunch où déjeuner pour les lève-tard hahah. Apres 3 visites je peux dire que les plats sont délicieux & des belles portions avec une belle variété dans l'assiette. La vinaigrette de la salade un peu sucrée balance bien un bon brunch salé. Terrasse à lavant, beaucoup de table à l'intérieur. Service très bien & rapide. Les prix sont raisonnables. J'y retourne c'est sur.
Nous sommes allés pour le brunch c'était délicieux ! Épices typiques malgaches qui rehaussent vraiment les plats & donnent une saveur exotique aux assiettes du brunch. Bons prix aussi & service rapide !
The breakfast poutine with salmon is amazing. The staff are very friendly & accommodating. This is a great laid back spot for a quiet, delicious brunch.

Brunch excellent. J'ai commandé des oeufs bénédictines faits avec du jambon fait maison, un véritable délice. Mon copain a commandé un bagel au saumon, saumon également fumé maison. Nous étions initialement un peu sceptique vis à vis du prix, qui est un poil plus élevé qu'un brunch classique dans la zone, mais nous nous sommes rapidement rendus compte de la qualité de la nourriture. Le prix en vaut la chandelle.
