It's a standard diner experience. The food is decent—neither exceptional nor disappointing. The staff is friendly.

Worst Egg Benedict I've had in awhile. The ham was cold under the eggs and the interior side of the english muffin was not toasted, as if they just toasted the bread whole before cutting it. Terrible.

★★★★★

I like this place because it's independent. So many other places like Eggsquis or Allô Mon Coco taste the same. This place is renowned for their breakfast potatoes. They're slightly sweet, crispy on the outside, and pillowy soft inside. Compared to other places, they are much less expensive. They also have both French crepes and American pancakes...with a twist. Like Nic-Pic, their pancakes are wonderfully chewy rather than fluffy...if you like that sort of thing. I like that they offer an alternative to regular pancakes.

If I could give zero stars I would. One plate had hair in it. The other was a waffle made with the same stuff for my crepe so my crepe was too think and waffle HD nothing in it. My crepe Had half a slice of hm cut in too with 2 asparagus cut in 4 cold and had no sauce. Waitress couldn’t be bothered to come see us. Over no one ate and we paid for jo food no service

May 15, 2022

Ordered eggs benedict with swiss cheese and asparagus. It was terrible. Served quickly but it was cold. The hollandaise sauce was not hollandaise sauce. It was something else and it was terrible. The potatoes were good. The fruit was not in good condition. Coffee was very week. The waitress was great.

Best place around for breakfast at reasonable prices. I recommend the eggs Benedict, their sausages are excellent also. Fast, friendly service, ample seating and they always have tasty and interesting daily specials. Expect to wait a little during peak hours(weekends are very busy) and know that they are only open for breakfast anf lunch.

This place was great! Me and my husband brought my parents here for Brunch. The food came very quick and tasted fresh and had great flavour. My son loved their waffles. Our server spoke English with us and was very friendly. Would recommend for sure!

December 9, 2024

Super disappointing. The tables are so close together that we have the impression of having lunch with our neighbors. I asked for less potatoes and more fruit. I actually had fewer potatoes, but when I saw my friends plate, I noticed that I only had a very thin slice of kiwi more than her. She was kind to give me her slice of watermelon. I asked the waitress who was embarrassed to tell me that the kitchen told her that it was more fruit. Our table neighbors were laughing about it, they heard everything... their table was almost glued to ours. Finally, our toast was soaked in butter. We still managed to remove the excess with a knife and a napkin, but the butter had still melted a lot. Anyway, I was embarrassed to have suggested this place. P.S. see the photo with the slice of kiwi as well as the soaked napkin and the other photo with the too generous quantity of butter.

What a shame to see that since the change of ownership, the food has changed so much. We are long time customers and frequent this place regularly. Unfortunately, our latest experiences have convinced us to no longer eat at this restaurant. The potatoes, so good before, are almost no longer seasoned. We look for shallots and if we ask for extra, they charge us 1.95! For a big bowl (much too big and too expensive) of raw shallots! The cooking of the eggs leaves something to be desired. Often our food was served not hot enough. We even had pea soup with cumin! It is a typically Quebecois dish which, in our opinion, cannot be distorted in this way. We also went there as a family. There were 14 of us. The service was worthy of an alley canteen! When the meal was served, 3 waitresses were around us giving us our plates but they were shouting the names of the dishes all at the same time so it was incredibly cacophonous. No class. Especially since there were 3 hearing impaired people in the group. In short, 25 years ago, it was our favorite restaurant and today, after multiple attempts, we will never go back there.

August 23, 2024

Hello, we are going to have lunch at this place There were four of us (two adults - two children). This restaurant does not have table syrup, so for us who were eating pancakes, it was our surprise to be served maple syrup in a small dish we paid for $4.99. Between you and me, is it normal to be fooled like that. So, dear future customers, bring your own can of maple syrup because at $4.99 its not far from the price of a can. And what to say about Madame Lyne who we nickname the so-called manager No way to chat with her

Arrogant waitress, really didnt try to be there this morning and made us feel it, 15 minutes before taking our order despite the restaurant being almost empty, she was drinking coffee while staring at us. First and last time, not even bacon on a supposed brunch plate so their household bread is crusty bread, plus she forces us to give 15% despite real poor service

I havent been there in a while! I wont go back unless I have to! I loved everything before, now the plates of eggs remain the best, the quantity of before but less. Yellow coloring in pancake and waffle batter!! But why?? It just feels chemical and not real. There is no added value in doing that! It was definitely better before!! The bakers plate with mini brioches with creaming on top!! Much too sweet compared to the recipe before!! Too many more or less relevant changes. Its only the potatoes that have kept their unique taste! Its the best in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu.

Since the management changed about a year ago I find that the quality of the service and the food has gone down and in addition the prices have gone up, I understand the increase in prices but the fds pass made us ask for 1$ extra for our table syrup for our pancakes yes yes I said table I think it should always be included, just like I asked for extra for the sugar in my coffee and no it wasnt a mistake, we were told to tell the boss who isnt there often I think so there you go!!! but hey if you dont do anything Im going to go have lunch in another restaurant in St-Jean its not like were missing it, from a loyal customer 1 to 3 times a week for 20 years

Waitress with blond hair full of braids, bad service, we had to ask several times for our extra... stupid look. We have barely started eating and she brings us the bill, doesnt even come and ask us if everything is correct. Honestly, me and my partner were really disappointed.

★★
December 23, 2023

Its rare that I make a comment on a service but this time, I thought it was relevant to make one. Normally, I always have good service at this restaurant but I went there recently and it was quite the opposite. First, the waitress threw the plate of bread on the table. Second, my friends and I had barely received our plates on the table when she was already arriving with our bills. We immediately felt rushed, like we had to hurry to lunch and leave. Finally, when it came time to pay, I expected the waitress to give me the machine so that I could add the tip I wanted to give her. Instead, she kept the machine and asked me how much I wanted to tip. I felt really uncomfortable and felt obligated to give him the minimum (15%) when I probably would have given less given the service I had received.

The waitress came to take my order and brought it to me 5 minutes later. She didnt come back after that. I had to borrow the syrup from the next table. After my meal, I got up and waited near the cash register to pay because I would still be there if I had stayed at my table. She seemed frustrated when she realized there would be no tip...Poor service.

A restaurant that we will never go to again, or we usually go there with friends on Saturday/Sunday. Mediocre service, cold food, waitress who shouts very loudly the cooks are Afghanists, good for nothing who dont even half understand French, the same one told the other waitress that she had had enough, and that she wasnt working in anything Our waitress who asks us 2 to 3 times for our order and how the bills work. Soft potatoes, cold bacon, coffee beans in the bottom of the cup. What struck me the most was the pile of pre-cooked toast that you can see very clearly when you come home... Everything is prepared in advance, and nothing fresh. Really really disappointed... It really cant be the same restaurant.
