UNIVERSEL DÉJEUNERS ET GRILLADES REVIEWS

Absolutely loved this place! One of the things that really stood out to me was that they offer late breakfast options, I was there aroun noon during the week and got offered both menus. Super convenient. The service was impeccable, and the food was amazing. They have a great variety of dishes for both breakfast and dinner, and everything I tried was delicious. Highly recommend!

Came here and wanted a late breakfast. I was nervous because I don’t speak any French but they were so kind and everything is bilingual. The food and coffee was awesome. The service again was attentive and patient with me as I didn’t know what to eat but they suggested the Montreal Benedict and it hit it out of the park. I’m a big fan and I will be back again.

Great service overall. It’s fast and the crew is very friendly. Food tastes really good. I had the seafood linguine and the sauce is amazing. The classic poutine is a must try. My daughter & husband had the chicken souvlaki and they both loved it. The Greek salad is fresh .The music is good. I like the vibe. If you’re visiting Montreal, this is a must. I recommend this place.

FABERGE RESTAURANT REVIEWS

We had a fantastic meal at Fabergé. It was a Saturday early morning and not too packed yet, but it got progressively more busy. We ordered the fried chicken and waffles and mac 'n cheese benny, and both were delicious and done perfectly. They have a small menu for kids, and the items there were perfectly portioned and unique (our eldest got a pancake "nest" with a fried egg cooked into it). Even the side of fruit we got our youngest had a great variety. Service was attentive and everyone who served us was friendly. Our food came fairly quickly, and they ensured our coffee and water was topped up. There was an ample amount of street parking available for the many eateries around. We were on our way to the Biodôme, and the restaurant was only about 15-20 min away.

First time there and will definitely go back and try different things on the menu, everything looked so good. Place was packed, it was a sunday brunch so we expected a lineup outside but it wasn’t too long of a wait outside. The servers were attentive, fast and efficient. I would recommend this place to anyone and families. I also loved the decor too, it felt nice and cozy type of ambiance!

OMG!!! Worth the line and every calorie that I ate. It's highly recommend this place. Even the coffee is just unique. The sweetness in the milkshakes are just perfect, as a NYC resident usually sweet is too sweet and unhealthy at home. Cuisine in Montreal kmows how to balance the sweet. Loved farm raised benedicts w/ ham, and my matcha. Delicious everything!! I wish to have a perfect place like this close by.

EGGSPECTATION COMPLEXE DESJARDINS REVIEWS

Wonderful restaurant for breakfast. Food was fantastic and creative. Our meals came quickly, regardless of how busy the dining room was. Atmosphere is very cool and hip. Indoor and outdoor seating. Servers are all great, kind, and attentive. Hostess was extremely lovely, friendly, and welcoming. We actually came back three times during the week we spent in Montreal. We highly recommend Eggspectation if you're in the area and looking for an awesome breakfast experience.

This place is excellent and in a very convenient location. I went twice. Sat at the bar and was served by Porag. Thank you to him for an amazing experience that made me go back a second time with friends. Great atmosphere and the food was amazing. Great coffee and fresh juices also. Thank you guys!!! Vegetarian options: One of my friends is vegetarian and was happy with the available options.

Whoever graded this place below 5, should have their head examined. Our server was an 10. Our food a 10. My wife had the Eggs Benedict Classic. I has the big breakfast with French Toast made from Brioche bread. If in doubt. Go. You won't be sorry.
