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.
Taras was clean & organized. The food arrived a little bit cold, but the quality was still excellent. The atmosphere was very nice however very noisy due to fire fighter, kiosk activity for the public as well as deliveries happening on the side of the street all in all great experience, almost 5 stars will definitely be going back.
My family & I had a Wonderful Mother's Day Breakfast. We had the Salmon chic, the Poutine & Rib's breakfast . The food is fresh, quality ingredients & flavoured & lot's of choice. Great Cappuccino & Service. We'll be back again!
Great food. A little pricey but it's 2024 & everything is today. Great friendly service. Nice terrace on Saint Laurent. Terrible overpriced coffee - tasted like those pods, with the price of an expensive cafe.
Petite perle gastronomique, je n'ai pas mangé de meilleur jambon, saumon fumé, ou glace que celui de Tsak Tsak. Tout est fait maison, & le service est excellent ! Recommande vivement.

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.
Just north of the corner at Laurier & St. Laurent Blvd, Tsak Tsak (formerly L'Inconnu) is a quaint casual breakfast/brunch bistro with a larger menu that should satisfy most, if not all, tastes. The restaurants atmosphere has potential but could definitely use some work. From the street view window the décor is casual bohemian but when you enter the kitchen & relevant equipment is exposed, along with some storage shelving...it could be easily covered up to help convey a more lux experience. That said, our meal was quite good. We ordered a hot chocolate (very good...using real chocolate & not from powder), the Bagel Salmon (very good...but could have had the bagel toasted & added red onions to the plate...if you order this, make sure to ask the server as it will help a lot) & Pear French Toast (excellent...using brioche bread & a sautéed pear with cheese curds & nuts...somewhat like a french toast poutine...something unique & very tasty). Service was good & the food arrived relatively quickly but they were clearly short staffed & a patron rush would have put pressure on them. Overall I would have given them 4.5 stars. Enjoy!
J'ai récemment eu l'occasion de dîner dans ce restaurant malgache & je suis absolument enchanté par mon expérience. Dès mon arrivée, j'ai été accueilli chaleureusement par le personnel, créant une atmosphère accueillante. La variété de plats proposés était impressionnante, mettant en avant la richesse de la cuisine malgache. Les plats sont tous fait maison & sont délicieux!!Le cadre du restaurant offrait une vue magnifique.Ce qui m'a également marqué, c'est l'attention aux détails & le souci de satisfaire les clients. Le service était impeccable, avec une équipe attentive qui était prête à répondre à toutes mes demandes. Je recommande tsak tsak!!!
