Tried the new breakfast spot. The kids’ breakfast was decent, nothing special but it did the job. Unfortunately, the egg Benedict didn’t impress, and the burger was a letdown — it had a strong butane-like aftertaste that made it hard to enjoy. Inconsistency on how the potato were cooked husband got undercook potato mine were burned kids were ok. Overpriced orange juice. We ll definately not be returning
Reviews / Ratings for Déjeuners Yolks Breakfast
On Sat/Sunday, when its sunny...Avoid going as a group. There was slow service bc the location was overbooked by reservations and there were clear signs of disorganisation at the reception, unforntunately. Upon our arrival, small clusters of groups were waiting outside or inside the entrance despite having a reservation. The team seemed hesistant to clear out table when previous families or groups were clearly finished eating. Food wise: Eggs are soft & delicious considering the smaller portions, keep in mind that these eggs are all locally sourced but taste wise we had no complaints, as we could add our salt/pepper/butter/hot sauce ourselves. The homemade hot sauces and ketchup are GREAT ( complementary to each dishes/needs). Yolks even offers tofu on their menu ( nice surprise) as an alternative for eggs, so everyone is welcome here! All the dishes were good except for the potatoes which were pure oil, their crispy Tots are much better. I recommend the Yolks Breakfast or Benedict your Way for their highly customisable. They use brioche buns for their sandwiches, huge plus! The sides are good too. Pancakes are AMAZING, so fluffy will not disappoint, I suggest the fruity options with homemade Jam syrup. The cinnamon pancakes were loaded with sugar and pecans, no cinnamon detected yet satisfying regardless because of how pillowy the pancakes are! The stack of pancakes itself was heavily, if anything bring your own maple syrup 💕 As a group most people enjoyed their drinks but watch out for cross contamination Yolks, we were brought milk for our bottomless coffee in open mini containers. Thank you for the food, service during weekends will need to improve but we enjoyed the service from our server! We will come back during the week to fully take in the potential this breakfast restaurant has to offer when it is less busy before 9 am or after 1 pm. 6.9/10 until we return! Thank you for your hospitality.
Food was not as good as expected. Very noisy and crowded inside.
What's going on Yolks???!! I am.giving a 2 star rating for food because the pancakes failed to give that exceptional detail. From the opening to now.. the pancakes are not what it used to be. They were fluffy back then! it tasted incredible before. Today I felt I was eating rubber. No one in the kitchen does a taste test before sending it out? Come on. This is the whole reason I come here because of the pancakes. It's what made it attractive. The rest of the food, Benny salmon was amazing and burger was also good. Just need to get those pancakes back to what it was. No other breakfast restaurant can pull that off. A loyal customer that believes in this restaurant.
I ordered the eggs Benedict with ham and got the lemon baked potatoes. The Dijon hollandaise sauce was not great. The Dijon was overpowering it completely and I do enjoy Dijon. The poached egg was great though and the ham was good. However the lemon potatoes was so lemony I got nothing from them but that sour flavour. Also the "fruit" consisted on 1 quarter slice of a tomato, a sliver of a pineapple and 3 grapes that weren't tasty...I mean I'm paying 20$ plus tax.. they could do better. Also very loud! Could barely here my mom and aunt. There were people in there but the music was way too loud.
Was so excited to come here! Already knew what I wanted coming in, but unfortunately the online menu is different from the menu in the restaurant. Online it said we could do 50/50 tater tots & truffle lemon potatoes as a side, but unfortunately that was not an option in the restaurant. Menu is quite complicated, but the waiter was extremely friendly and was answering all of our questions! In terms of the food I was quite satisfied. Loved the eggs and bacon. The bread came plain (I assumed it would come with butter), so I ate it like that, but they do have a big variation of jams you would have to ask for! The Crispy French toast was good, not the taste I was expecting at all (no cinnamon taste whatsoever), but good paired up with the maple syrup. The potatoes were very rich in flavour. Maybe almost too garlicky. Overall I was satisfied! Our waiter had messed up the bills & then proceeded to charge us different amounts than what was on our bills, which was confusing. Atmosphere is super cute! Perfect noise level & loved the booths. Everyone is so kind. Would really love to try this place out again and see how i feel the second time around!
Food is tasty at reasonable price better than Cora in my opinion
We enjoyed our breakfast- food -service-decor and atmosphere is great Thank you
The food may as well had been motel breakfast. My eggs came out wrong, the toast was toasted on one side, the proteins came out a bit too soft. The staff were very nice. The kitchens seemed too overwhelmed for a soft open. I can see how this restaurant is owned by the former owners of Jukebox’s Burgers that had similar problems. Definitely would not recommend.
The food is excellent but the coffee was a disappointment. When it first opened, the coffee was the cherry in the Sundae. Our server told us then, that the coffee was a special blend prepared for Yolk's and it was delicious. The coffee the last two we were there left much to be desired. Too bad 😞
Super fun new brunch spot in the West Island! Interesting menu, not the usual fare offered at other brunch chains in the neighbourhood. Ordered the grilled cheese with soup which was delicious. Kids menu options and portions were generous. Fresh interiors and comfortable seating.
The only upside is the service. I did not think it was possible to miss the mark on a plate of eggs and bacon. Everything tasted awful including the eggs The sausages were just inedible and the coffee and capuccino tasteless After eating there you feel full but unwell. Just go to Petinos on the other side of the street!
Coffee is bad!
9.0/10 This was my second time at Yolks, and both visits have been amazing. I went with two others, and we all loved our meals. I ordered the Western fritata, and it was perfectly cooked. Every component of the dish was spot on. There were plenty of caramelized onions, peppers, and ham, and everything tasted fresh with a slight sweetness. The frittata wasn’t heavy on the potatoes, and the balance with the eggs was excellent. It wasn’t burnt, it wasn’t runny, it was cooked perfectly. The flavours were incredible, especially when paired with their spicy sauce. We also shared the crispy pecan and banana French toast, which was fantastic. It was perfectly crispy without being oily, and the maple syrup was just the right amount and tasted very fresh. This is a must try item at the restaurant. One friend got the chicken and waffles and said it was amazing and perfectly cooked. My other friend ordered the ham Benedict and loved it as well. On a previous visit, I tried the Smokehouse Benedict. It was very good, although the bacon didn’t taste particularly smoky, more like regular bacon but the spinach they use is excellent and complements the Benedict perfectly. This place has truly become my favourite breakfast spot and I’ll be coming back every time I’m in Montreal 9.0/10
Must try place...
We visited as a group of four and each ordered something different, which gave us a nice variety to try. I had the scrambled eggs with lemon fries and gluten-free bread, while two others ordered the chicken and waffles, and another chose a waffle dish. The presentation of the food was beautiful—everything looked fresh, vibrant, and thoughtfully plated. However, while eating and shortly after, all four of us began to feel unwell. This was very concerning, especially since we had different dishes. It unfortunately overshadowed the entire experience. While the menu and presentation are appealing, our experience raises serious concerns about food quality and safety. We hope the restaurant looks into this, as it significantly impacted our visit.
O.M.G.!! So delicious!! Best eggs Benedict we have ever tried! Shout out to our waiter, Luca, who made the experience so memorable!
Fantastic breakfast spot! I decided to try their fried chicken burger and it was absolutely delicious, perfectly crispy. To top it off, the service was wonderfully attentive and welcoming from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Run don’t walk!! The Cinnamon pancakes are insanely good.
Beautiful location with delicious food. My friend and I shared the cinnamon pecan waffle and the burger. Both were out of this world! Can’t wait to go back.
There is only 2 choices for eggs, so you would think that they would know how to cook them correctly. I asked for poched eggs mollet. My egg was so overcooked that the yolk did not run. The toasts were cold and hard. The waiter did not come to ask if we wanted coffe refills. Needless to say I will not return there. My friend was also very disappointed in the quality of her breakfast.
It is a beautiful place to go have good Breakfast. I got the waffle chicken with benedict egg. It was so good. The staff were friendy.
Wanted to try a new restaurant and wasn’t dissapointed. The menu was very refreshing from other restaurants and clear. I adored my food
When trying to make a reservation over the phone, the young lady told us that they didn't take reservations on weekends but that there shouldn't be much wait at 10am (the time I was trying to book for). My friends and I arrived on Saturday morning around 10am and as the young lady had predicted, we did not have to wait very long for a table. I will also mention that there is parking on-site, which is always appreciated. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. Now the reason for the 2 star review is because of the service we received; I am someone who goes out to eat often and I have never received a service like this one. The older gentleman who waited our table made us feel incredibly rushed, asking us if we wanted to take our leftovers to go while we were still eating, and shortly after asking if he can bring our bills. We were very shocked, as it didn't feel like we had arrived that long ago so it wasn't like we were unreasonably hoarding a table. I was so shocked that I checked the time (maybe time flew without us realizing?) and turns out we had only been there for an hour! On top of that, I was facing the door so I was able to see clients coming in and being seated not long after, so I am not sure what was the reason for such impatience but it left a bitter impression.
Had the pleasure of eating at this new restaurant. Our server Victoria gave us excellent service, polite, attentive & answered all our questions on the menu. The place was st capacity so it was quite noisy but it had a good vibe. Food came quickly with good size portions. Coffee was surprisingly delicious. Overall a very positive experience.
