Café Marie-Jeanne

Wow. This restaurant has been on my want to go list for a while and it did not disappoint. The dishes are simplistic but do not lack in flavor. We went for brunch and tried the smoked chicken, omelet marie jean, jambon and the poutine. They were ALL delicious, and surprisingly my favorite was the smoked chicken. Its served over two pieces of toast and the most amazing balsamic reduction I have ever tasted. The omelet marie jean is french style so the eggs are soft scrambled which was amazing. The service was great. Our food took a while to come out but in my opinion just adds to the french vibe so I didnt mind. Unfortunately by the time we got there and sat down (around 1:30) they were out of biscuits and croissants so that was a bummer but it's ok because we will definitely be back. All in all, this place is a must!!

Thursday evening only - $20 burger, beer, and fries. It was okay burger and fries. Onion jam was good if you don't mind the sweetness. The burger patty was cooked perfectly. They fried the bun that made it very oily and soggy that we are not a fan of. The fries were a bit too over fried for our liking. Really nice service and decor though.

This is a great French restaurant to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. The dishes are so unique, delicious and they’re not expensive. I would love to suggest some dishes, but honestly every single item in their menu is exceptional. Enjoy this place and bon apetit!!

Food was great but the service was super cold. Basically did the bare minimum to get us in and out. Took order, dropped food. No other communication. It’s fine but not awesome when you’re entertaining a guest from out of town. Oh well.

A fantastic spot for brunch, dinner, and everything in between. This place has everything you could want in a cozy-but-classy dining experience. The menu has a ton of variety, but doesn't sacrifice quality for the sake of options. Want something simple and comforting, like scrambled eggs with a side of bacon or a fennel salad? You can get it. Want a seafood feast for breakfast, complete with hot-smoked salmon, caviar, and sumptuous raw oysters? Wish granted. Want a unique treat with seasonal ingredients from an often-changing specials menu, like rabbit stew or gourmet french toast? Done. The a la carte menu at CMJ makes it easy to order as small or as large as you have a taste for. Waitstaff is super friendly, very knowledgeable and eager to answer questions regarding the menu. They are also conscientious about allergies and dietary restrictions. The drinks are on par with the food and the cocktails here don't disappoint. My favorite is the soda-based Cocktail Marie-Jeanne; the entire thing is a mix of effervescence, sweet and citrus without being overwhelming. The tightly-curated wine and beer list keeps it simple, but offers some unique finds and smart choices that highlight the food. Café Marie-Jeanne lives up to the "Café" part of their name; the coffee and espresso are outstanding. CMJ has a menu that pays homage to French cuisine in a comfortable space, and offers a lot of variety without trying to be a brewpub or eclectic fusion experience. Highly recommended.

Food is so good. Get the ham, pickle and butter sandwich. Authentic Fench tastes. Bread and pastries are made in house and are excellent. Get anything with caviar, especially the omelet.

Steak Tartare . A small, yet delightful, cafe with outstanding French food and an easygoing neighborhood feel. Think of this as a French version of a typical American diner: cozy, comfy and all the right things. The chef even comes out occasionally to talk to the guests- feels homely, doesn't it? . The, meat extensive, menu has so many healthy options to choose from. Pretty much everything’s available irrespective of the time. Feel like having a smoked Salmon omelet for dinner? They'll serve it with a smile - No judging. Also, can't go wrong with their smoked and cured fish (they have a plenty of options) or the selection of French pastries. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 For a meal packed with flavor, give their tartare a try. Though we were a little surprised to see it didn't come with an egg yolk, it was tasty nonetheless and, you bet, healthy. The bread, baked in-house, was perfectly crusty and very fresh too.

A wonderful little French cafe and bistro, tucked away in Ukrainian Village. In addition to wonderful pastries and coffee, you'll also find traditional items on the menu like sauteed calf brains, steak frites, and omelettes. Worth multiple visits.
