😍 You can’t believe how good this place is. Everyone was really satisfied with their brunch, and it was such a great spot to hang out and enjoy the meal. There were so many options to choose from, and everything we tried was great. Definitely a place I’d come back to.
Reviews / Ratings for L'Avenue Notre Dame
Super friendly and welcoming staff! They gave us great service, generous portions, and delicious food! Many options for all kinds of tastes - and a very interesting bathroom!
We loved this place, we ordered the Dallas and Istanbul special items fo brunch and enjoyed! Just beware that the portions can be huge. We def could go with 1 item for two as we both had leftovers. Also this place is huge, don't get overwhelmed by the lineup, it goes perfect fast.
For the positives, the egg and steak meal was very good and the waiter was nice. However, unless you have time to waste, do not go here. It took us about 1 hour to get our meal and my wife's shakshuka came warm at best. It took them another 15 min just to reheat the dish. So after ordering, 1h15 to get eatable food and the shakshuka was just ok. Just asking for the bill took another 15 min. While the waiter was apogelotic, unless you like to wait in line to get seated, then wait 1h15 for your food then wait again for the bill that never comes, go elsewhere.
Super tasty and varied brunch! We'll defintely come back! The wait can be a little long but it's worth it. Cheers!
We had amazing breakfast, international options and huge drinks! Kids friendly as well!
The world complete lunches were delicious. We ordered Bobby does Japan and the Shakshuka!
No paper menu = 1 star
portions its ok and reasonable prices,you absolutely must check out their restrooms, they're really cool! I will definitely go again.
It's a vibe. Be ready to wait in line on weekends.
Food was yummy. Went on a Saturday Morning around 9 and did not have to wait to sit. Chai latte tasted like plain milk though.
I’ve been going to L’Avenue for over 15 years—first at the Mont-Royal location and later at the Notre-Dame one. Over all these years, the food has always been excellent: consistently well prepared, generous plates, and usually very friendly staff. It’s one of the reasons my family and I have kept coming back regularly since the Notre-Dame location opened. However, I’ve had a disappointing experience with the same server two or three times now at the Notre-Dame location. For lack of a better way to describe it, she seems to saunter from table to table, rarely smiles, and does not come across as particularly friendly. During our last visit, she was actually rude to me. I always order a single pancake with strawberries and chocolate for our 6-year-old. This time, she brought the full version (three or four pancakes). When she came back to the table later, I mentioned that we had meant to order the one-pancake version. Her response was: “Ben il fallait me le dire,” which is not the level of customer service I’ve come to expect from your restaurant. It’s unfortunate, because we’ve been loyal customers for many years and genuinely enjoy the food and atmosphere. But experiences like this do make me think twice about returning. I would be happy to discuss this further with management if that would be helpful.
Very good experience, I had a friend reunion brunch, and it was the perfect place for that. Their got sauce is pretty good and matches super well with the egg and the hollandaise sauce. The matcha soy latte was good has well, I willl definitely go back!
Thought it was going to be better with all the rave reviews. Not sure why this place is so popular. The pancakes taste gummy. The potatoes taste like they were overcooked in the microwave. My dish was served cold.
Incredible brunch spot! Great food, service, and atmosphere. Large portions as well!
We had a late breakfast around 10:00/10:30 so no wait. I ordered the “Bob goes to Istanbul”, hubby got “Bob goes to Japan”; both were amazing. Great food, great service! If I lived anywhere near there I would be there quite often😆
Visited for a long weekend and the best food we had in Montreal was the breakfast here. We wish we would have visited the first day and kept going back. Skip the bagels, come here and you won’t regret it.
Long waiting with no reservation possibility, very small place to wait inside, prices are ok, food quality good, very cold inside and noisy, waitress not very professional
The food is not good, chicken was unseasoned, the omelettes were bland
Great breakfast place. Food delicious and good portion. Service always nice.
2026: the steak avocado toast was great. The side potatoes were alright, the sweet mayo was inedible though. Enjoyed my nocciata coffee. Staff was friendly and efficient. 2019: Overall a great breakfast place, but the lineups can be ridiculous. Pleasant service. Very cool washrooms. Millionaire bacon was alright but overrated. The carrot cake pancakes were great except for the cream cheese glazing which was subpar. Sausage was good.
Great service and I ordered the steak, that is a lot of food! And it was juicy and good quality meat!
