Food is good and service is fast
Very good
Our three kids enjoyed a wonderful brunch there, kids are thrilled! Super good!
The food is below basic. The eggs have zero taste. The potatoes are average. The crêpe was like a stale supermarket crêpe and the bananas inside it were old and super mushy. The applesauce is very sour. Extremely bad value for money!
Food and service wonderful 😊
was really good — le brunch hit the spot, sérieux. Inside was a bit dark, but the balcony was perfect, super chill and bright. The food was tasty, fresh, and “c’était ben bon”. Overall, a solid spot for brunch in Verdun.
Slow service, inattentive waitress
I've tried over 6 different ben and florentine breakfast places and this one BY FAR IS THE BEST I'VE EVER BEEN TO. The food was cooked to perfection and everything was flawless. 5 star all the way
As a Member of Nuns Island tennis enjoying an epic morning with group instruction session at 7:30,Canadian Olympic hockey semis at 10 and tennis play at noon while watching Olympics from sports TV and able tennis players on the courts, my first observation is that the menu is very well conceptualized with smoothies,fresh fruit,assorted eggs Benedict's , waffles,cereals and classic breakfast orders. Roomy space that is conducive to eave dropping. Service is super attentive . Irrespective of breakfast choice, accompanying fruits are tasty and fresh with potato fries that are worth eating. No surprise that the location is a regular for Nun Island residents especially on the weekends and indulging Nuns Island tennis members. Parking is generous and wait lines are a non event compared to trendy restos on Notre Dame.
I go sometimes for brunch because it’s very close to my house in the island and everyday serves breakfast and brunch, the quality of food is good and tasty. Every time I go and see the basket they serve me bread or bagel , is very disgusting and looks like never washed. They just put a piece of paper on it and bread on top of paper. I wish they could have better hygiene and we never know what’s happening on back of the counter in the kitchen!
Great food, the combos are fairly priced and the service was good, the waitress served us both in french and in english. Will go again!
