L'Avenue

L’Avenue is and has been for years hands down one of Montreal’s brunch gems. I had about a 15 minute wait outside this time, but it was absolutely worth it just like every visit over the years. The eggs Benedict were perfection, and everything else on the table was just as impressive. Portions are generous, flavors are spot on, and the presentation is always creative. The vibrant decor gives the place such a fun energy, and the staff are consistently warm, attentive, and efficient, no matter how busy it gets. L’Avenue never a letdown!

I absolutely loved this place and will definitely go back if I am in Montreal again! I got the Pistachio latte(10/10) and the Indecisive which is basically sort of a build your own platter with all their best stuff. First off, the portion was huge for 1. There’s a good chance that you won’t be able to finish it, especially if you have a drink as well. The lemon blueberry pancakes were simply some of the best I have had. Fluffy and super delicious. The potatoes are their specialty and extremely flavourful (way more than any breakfast potato I have ever had) The cream cheese I got on the side with the bagel was really different and zingy and good too. Overall, highly recommend for brunch! Take someone with you so you guys can try a few different things because the pancakes and french toast options are incredible!

L’Avenue was amazing! The portions were huge and the food was incredibly satisfying. I had the Bobby Does Dallas and the classic Eggs Benedict, both packed with flavour and very filling The blueberry pancakes were also delicious. Ceaser was one of the best I’ve had in Montreal. Would come back for brunch again.

A must go brunch store. Every dish is so big and so good too! It’s really affordable! I love the truffle duck egg Benedict! The omelet is so tasty as well! Def will come back again! Don’t forget to check their dope restrooms!

I was in the mood for lunch and my husband wanted brunch — this place is perfect for those situations. The Bobby explores Japan was delicious and the portion… wow, it was huge (I even took leftovers home). The Indecisive with Strawberry Nocciolata French Toast was also good, but the French toast itself was a bit dry. Even though there was a generous amount of Nocciolata cream, it could have been a little more moist.

L'avenue is the most trendy, unusual and cool restaurant I have visited in many years. The l'Avenue brand is a small but apparently successful franchise operation, with additional branches in Montreal, Toronto and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. We visited the restaurant that started it all, on Avenue du Mont Royal. We arrived on a rainy Sunday morning. After a long wait, during which we noticed a lot of customers exiting with doggy bags, we were served by an enthusiastic uniformed staff member by the name of "Jaws". The menu is very much a brunch type of deal, with the usual omelettes, eggs benedict, bacon, sausage and potato combinations. The maple syrup and the coffee are included and bottomless. The portions were generous, the quality and the freshness of the food was good, but it was the atmosphere inside the restaurant that made it most interesting. The black overall F1 pitstop style uniforms, worn by very energetic, mostly 20-something staff, the decorations on the wall, the hanging motorbike,all contributed to a different, almost rebel << we do things our way >> vibe. The menu is simple but presented with edgy artwork, consistent with the general "we are different" look and feel of almost everything in the establishment. We used paper menus but most of the clients, on average much younger than myself, used their phones for that information. In the same spirit, the washrooms are a must see. One is decorated with professional grade graffiti. The other one has a spinning disco ball and mirrors on the walls. Pretty interesting! The music (techno beat) was a bit loud for me, but in this context, it was part of the intention to convey that funky, different way of doing things we are otherwise familiar with. Overall, beyond the food that was good and generously portioned, brunch at l'Avenue was an experience. I would go back, probably would go for pancakes this time, to take advantage of the always delicious, bottomless maple syrup. At the end of the day, restaurant are, above all else about the food :) Well done, l'avenue!

My boyfriend and I came here for lunch. We got there early to line up before the lunch rush, they don't take reservations. We waited 25 minutes. We sat on the outside patio. It was hot, but we were in the shade which was nice. We started off with an iced matcha and a cold brew. I've had better matcha elsewhere, so definitely try something else off the drink menu. The cold brew was good. I got the classic eggs benedict. The portion looked small, but it was actually very filling. The ham did get a little salty towards the end, but still really good. The poached eggs and potatoes were amazing. The true star of the meal was the hollandaise sauce, it was super. My boyfriend got the "have it all" breakfast. It came with eggs, sausage, ham, bacon, potatoes, beans, french toast, and a pancake. Everything was great, and it was nice to be able to try a wide variety of foods in one plate. Staff was super friendly, and service was great. We would definitely come back.

Decadent brunch dishes. My partner craved fluffy pancakes and boy does this place deliver. Took a 3 hour walk after brunch and still felt completely stuffed. Sat on the busy terrace out front on a warm weekday about noon. Service friendly - left us to enjoy and didn't hurry us out.

By far one of the most memorable restaurants of my trip to Montreal and even more so one of the best brunches I've ever had. L'Avenue is complete brunchie goals and vibes. We didn't have to wait long for a table outside and service was very fast! Onto the food! We ordered as a group and split everything. The Saint-Ambroise Benedict was amazing! No meat but it didn't need it. The beer cheese on top was so creamy and delicious! Bobby does Dallas was everything you could want in a savory breakfast. Steak, eggs, bbq sauce, cheese mushrooms and onions. Together it was one of our favorites of the day! We also got the peaches and cream pancakes and they were fluffy and the perfect sweet bite at the end of the meal. I will mention that they also have some awesome looking smoothies but I wanted to save all my room for the food so I didn't end up ordering one. But I was sure tempted! If you're looking for brunch in Montreal, look no further. You will not be disappointed in L'avenue.

I visited L'avenue in Montreal with my cousin, and we had a great time! I went for the Los Cabo's Chicken Waffle, and it was absolutely delicious. The dish features a corn waffle topped with crispy fried chicken, shallots, cheddar cheese, guacamole, sriracha sauce, and maple syrup. The combination of flavors was spot on--savory, spicy, and sweet, all in one bite. The corn waffle was light and crispy, the chicken was perfectly juicy, and the shallots and cheddar added a nice savory punch. The guacamole balanced the heat from the sriracha, and the maple syrup brought everything together with a touch of sweetness. It was filling but not too heavy, and every bite was a little bit different, which kept it interesting. My cousin, on the other hand, had the Indecisive Meal, which was a fun concept--basically a bit of everything classic breakfast food. He enjoyed it. The vibe at Lavenue was cozy, and the service was friendly, making it the perfect spot for a casual brunch. The prices are on the higher side for brunch, but the quality and creativity make it worth it. If you're in Montreal and want something unique, definitely try the Los Cabo's Chicken Waffle!

L'Avenue is an absolute gem--perfect for brunch lovers and anyone who appreciates a funky, nostalgic vibe. The decor is straight out of a neon-lit 1950s California diner, but with a modern twist that makes the place feel stylish and fun. I had the Dubai chocolate French toast, and it was super tasty, rich, and the portion was generous. Definitely a dish you could split or take home. I also tried the lamb meatballs over creamy Tzatziki, and they were incredibly flavorful--savory, tender, and balanced. Honestly, everything looked good coming out of the kitchen. Pro tip: Go with a group and order a few dishes to share--you'll want to try everything. It's a small spot, so either make a reservation for the weekend or prepare to wait a bit.

If you're visiting Montréal and looking for a brunch spot, this is the place to go. The food exceeded my expectations! I ordered the Californian omelette and it was huge and tasted amazing. My partner ordered the pink salmon benny and he said it was also delicious. The restaurant was beautifully decorated as well. Our server was very helpful and answered all our questions and he provided great service. Loved this place! Would go back if visiting again.

Best brunch in Montreal. Such a weird little vibe with disco balls in the bathroom and mannequins all over the restaurant. On the day we went it looked like a big group of undercover cops or PI's sitting right next to families and friends. I loved that they attract everyone. Service was sweet. My 4 year old was obsessed with telling people bonjour, and the server entertained him and joked around with him, which I thought was precious. We got the big breakfast with eggs, bacon, bagel, potatoes, fruit and French toast. I got the pecan pie, which was hands down the best French toast I've had in years. My husband tried another kind and thought it was equally as good. We were able to order two big breakfasts and share between me, my husband and our two kids. Absolutely would return in the future!

When I first went inside I was greeted with a neon aesthetic that you normally wouldn't associate with a brunch establishment but it added some nice flare due to being in such a unique environment. As soon as I was seated I was greeted with a warm welcome and waited a little while to flag someone down, but it was busy and they apologized in advance. The food was definitely something that I loved - comfortability with a twist (like most places you pay for the convenience of not making it yourself). The only thing that suffered would be the delays between the steps of service, but other than that it's an amazing spot to grab food with friends or solo!

This place was INCREDIBLE. Such a great spot for breakfast. The restaurant was decorated in such a cool way and the vibe was awesome. Servers were excellent, food was delicious. Drinks were great. You definitely have to check out the bathroom for an awesome surprise. I give this place 10/10. My husband and I came on a weekday and we didn't have to wait. Walked right in and got a table.

Drove over and were disappointed to see a line outside earlier today, it was only 38 degrees Fahrenheit outside. If it were maybe 10 degrees warmer, we might have waited outside in the line, but no place is worth waiting out in this kind of cold at all. Will give it another go earlier in the morning and maybe early in the week. Lots of good food options around here to wait anywhere.

Came with my partner as this restaurant has been raved about! However, I was so disappointed with my experience here. The quantity of food is not balanced by the plating, and the food just ends up looking grey and unappetizing. The food itself frankly was very lacklustre... sausage wasn't seasoned, potatoes were mushy. The tiramisu french toast was decent! Everything else was so underwhelming. This franchise has gotten worse throughout the years. I'd just save the time and money and go somewhere else.

I last came here years ago and have such nostalgic feelings for this place. As with most brunch spots, they have great options if you are craving something both sweet and savory. The pecan French toast was a little bit lacking, as in it is not dredged in an egg milk mixture (more so a dry bread that is pan fried) and the stuffing is very singularly sweet. The potatos were also a bit soggy. The eggs were cooked perfectly and I appreciate they use organic eggs. Baguette was standard. Service was quick and friendly. We went during off hours so did not need to wait at all. The ambiance is good for catching up with friends. I admit, the food quality is not as good as I remember, whether it's because my tastes have matured or something else. Realistically this is a 3/5, but due to fond memories here it's a 4/5 to me and I'm glad I got to try them again.

Love the food here! The Benedict eggs were perfectly done, great with the truffles gravy sauce. Tried the special Bobby does XXX (forgot the name, but it's lamb meat instead of beef of the classic Bobby does Dallas) - also super delicious. I also really like the pistachio latte. They don't take reservations, so go early. But do go try it!!

There can be a long line during lunch time and it's because the food is worth the wait. See pictures for recommendations. They are completely packed inside and this place seems to be more of a quick lunch/brunch dining rather than for you to sit around and chat. Most groups come in for the food RATHER than to socialize. We liked the food a lot and considered this to be quite a delicious brunch spot. Give it a try!

Outstanding breakfast at a neighborhood place with funky decor and very loud 80s and 90s music. Walked in on a Saturday morning and it was crowded but we were seated right away. The blueberry iced tea was delicious-real blueberry juice and berries with a sugared rim. I had huevos rancheros and my friend had French toast. Everything was delicious and the portions were just the right size. Would definitely recommend for a great brunch.

Amazing brunch spot with fantastic sweet and savory options! Came by on a weekday so there was no line and plenty of seating. Staff are all super kind and welcoming. A weird highlight of the place is actually their washrooms! The washroom are completely mirrored with disco lights--it's so cool, but also so disorienting to actually logistically do your business haha The food is all delicious! The prices are high, but their portions are very large so would actually suggest sharing a single set or take half to go. I would recommend their savory options over their sweet, just because the portions are so large that having so much sugar as your first meal feels wrong. I got a matcha latte and it did not taste like matcha at all, just mostly milk--would not get again. I know this is probably not the best place to get matcha, but I was holding out hope. The bowl size was quite fun though, if you want to get your liquid fix to match these brunch sets. Overall, would recommend dropping by for brunch! It's definitely a great experience and lots of options for everyone! And don't forget to check out the washroom!

Had to try the number one rated breakfast and brunch restaurant in Montreal and it didn't disappoint. The interior design of the restaurant is fun and the bathrooms are really unique (just go check them out). Got the indecisive as it's a nice variety of items so you can try several of their dishes. A mix of sweet and savory with your choice of bread or bagel. Service took a little while but the food is worth the wait as you can tell it's made fresh to order. A must-try

Genuinely one of the best breakfast places I've ever been too, the food was unreal especially the Red Shakshuka meal, it was indescribably delicious, the pancake/french toast were perfectly made, so fluffy and perfectly cooked. Definitely worth the start and hype it had on Yelp!!

The food was amazing the service was delightful the restrooms were interesting and unexpected. The French Toast was the main star!!!

I love places like this, I search for places like this - someplace with a unique style and ambiance. It's obvious from the decor and the menu. We were seated after a short wait outside of at most 10 minutes (probably a lot more on weekends), and our coffee came out fairly quickly. There are QR codes at your table for menus in both French and English, and the menu organization is unique and convenient. It may take a bit to give and receive your order - take the time to enjoy the ambiance and decor, see the types of meals everyone else got and you didn't, and listen to the music (featuring music that stumps Shazam is a plus for me). We ordered complete breakfasts and Benedicts. I got the Truffle Duck Benedicts (because duck), which includes potatoes. Everything was just so well and interestingly seasoned, even the greens on top of the mushrooms, even the potatoes. Freshly ground pepper and their own bottled hot sauce are accompaniments you should consider. Our server came around frequently with coffee refills while we happily struggled through our meals. In a city where there is a lot of overlap on the menus of places that serve breakfast and brunch, l'Avenue stands out!

This is a must-go brunch spot in Montreal. One bite of the eggs Benedict and I was in heaven. Thick slices of ham and Canadian bacon, perfectly poached eggs with runny yolks, topped with what must be crack-infused Hollandaise sauce. Couldn't get enough of it! The French toast is also worth a mention although it was a little too cake-like for my taste, it tasted like a wonderfully dense sponge cake and the pistachio spread was still delicious. Good service on a weekday around 11am, it wasn't too full and the prices are reasonable. The bathroom deserves a special mention, it feels like a nightclub in there!

The wait for this place was long, but WELL WORTH IT! The food - amazing, the service - spectacular, the bathrooms - fricken cool. Will definitely return :) (Some say the right bathroom is cooler, the left took my heart)

Yum yum yum! I got the Pink Salmon Benny. I normally avoid Benedicts because I don't like English muffins or Canadian bacon (the American kind) but this was different. The whole thing was served over a Montreal style bagel. So much better! The Benny came with a side of potatoes that were deliciously seasoned. I normally don't like maple syrup but the maple syrup here is really something else. It is a must try! Everyone I was with enjoyed their meal. I would definitely try their drinks next time I visit. I have to give it up to our server and the other workers as they are all very friendly and attentive. The ambiance here is lively but be warned the parking is very difficult!

Super fun atmosphere, very hipster vibes. Excellent service, food comes out hot. Tasty meals, wide selection, enormous portions. I recommend getting in early, we showed up at 8:30 on a Sunday and had our pick of a table. By 9:30 the place was getting pretty busy.

5 years later and still one of the best brunches I've ever had. The sweet, salty, and crunchy Benedict gives you everything. Also enjoyed the coconut and maple latte. No line at 10:30 am on a Saturday made us feel like we hit the jackpot. Looks like they no longer do the fruit skewers and water which is a bummer.

Great spot for brunch - portions are huge and there is a spacious inside which is good for groups! The walls have very cool artwork and the staff is very welcoming. The breakfast potatoes are nicely seasoned and really fill you up. The Eggs Benedicts are the must order here - there are many unique options to pick from. Please be aware that the smoothies are gigantic and one can easily be shared with multiple people.

Come hungry bc this place serves some hearty big meals! The food is large and in charge! Lol. It combines the richness or French cuisine with the size of American plates. We were jealous seeing the huge pancakes and Waffles coming out to other tables. The eggs Benedicts were so rich and filling there was no room. I was concerned about the ambiance bc many pictures made it appear that this is a dark dingy bar but we were pleasantly surprised to see a large window in the back that provides some great lighting for brunch. Waitress was friendly and like everywhere in Montreal spoke English and French.

Pink Salmon Benny: Eggs are good, sauce is good, salmon is really good. Not much else to say. Solid eggs benedict. Indecisive: Holy moly this is so much food. So many carbs, too. You get toast and a giant pistachio french toast. The pistachio french toast is really what makes the indecisive worth it. It was delicious. Both dishes came with a big serving of potatoes that were just SO filling. You do get a ton of food, but the prices are also quite high. The food was pretty good, but it is still standard breakfast offerings so I'm not sure if it'd be worth it for us to come back.

Came on opening weekend! Good food for a hearty brunch. Vibe inside is cool with artistic graffiti. Wait staff was nice and accommodate large party of 8

Excellent breakfast. We enjoyed the ribeye steak Benedict, and the pick two plate featuring the best scrambled eggs in ever eaten with a stuffed French toast with pistachio creme feeling. Truly extraordinary food, and exceptional service!

The hype is real! If you're visiting Montreal, you need to put this on the top of your list to get your breakfast fix. PINK. SALMON. BENNY (chef's kiss!) The beet juice infused hollandaise sauce may not be visually appealing, but trust me, the smoked salmon on top of the delicious bagel was amazing. The Zak & Leo's Smokehouse is another awesome choice. The smoked brisket was tender and rest of the sides definitely tied the meal altogether....most especially their signature breakfast potatoes.

J'ai décidé d'essayer ce restaurant de dejeuner/brunch très populaire. Je me suis dit, c'est populaire, sûrement une raison? Il a aussi de très bon review. De base, la quantité de choix est vraiment très grande. Et les assiettes sont bien grande! J'ai essayer le bon ben je prends tout. 2 oeufs, pain baguette multi grain, crêpe américaine, pain doré, fève, bacon, saucisse maison, patate maison, jambon, creton maison... Beaucoup de chose et vraiment bon. Le tout servit avec une canne de sirop d'érable et non pas du sirop de poteau. Mes compagnes ont prit les 2 oeufs classique (la plus petite assiette sur le menu) et l'indecis. L'indecis est 2 oeufs, fève, patate et pain avec 1 choix de sucré et 1 choix de salé. Elle a prit le pain doré fourré à la crème de pistache et coulis de framboise et du bacon. Les deux ont vraiment aimés leurs repas. Un point faible est la musique. Elle est vraiment mais vraiment forte, ce qui nous force tous à presque crier. L'autre point, comme j'ai dit, l'endroit est très populaire. Donc cela veut dire qu'il y a une longue file d'attente. J'ai attendu un bon 1h25 avant de massoires. On est arriver en fil à 11h00 on est sortie à 14h15.

It's always a pleasure eating at L'avenue! The breakfast is ALWAYS delicious, the service is top-notch, and the ambience and decor are one of a kind! Make sure to make reservations or go early to beat the line-up! Usually, the line moves fast, but there's a line for a reason. Don't be upset if you walk into a line--the place is worth it! I'm always excited to bring people together to experience L'avenue for an awesome bite and experience.

The wait was about 15 minutes, so not a problem. However, once inside, the wait to place and order, then to receive the food was excessive. It took close to an hour after sitting down to get our food. But wow, the food was surprisingly good and I can see why this place is popular. I thought eggs benedict and egg breakfasts should all be the same unless the restaurant just doesn't make them well. However, this place actually made these breakfast staples better than normal. The quality of the ham, bread, and hollandaise sauce really made these simple dishes stand out. Parking was very difficult as the whole street is a pedestrian/bike area.

Yelp search winner once again for brunch during our spontaneous trip to Montreal with no true planning! But, this was one of the most delicious brunches had and on a stretch of the Avenue perfect for people watching and dining! Sat at the parklet outside and the wait staff was attentive and so helpful! I had the classic eggs Benedict with their house smoked ham which was amazing and DD had the salmon one and they were amazing!! Highly recommended. And don't forget to check out the cool loo.

Waited almost an hr to get in on Monday around noon. It was a bit chaotic inside as expected with loud music very Brooklyn hipster vibe. Ordered their famous egg benedict with pink salmon on a bagel and blueberry lemon ricotta pancake. Food here is solid. Ricotta pancake is super fluffy and maple syrup or the blueberry syrup was overpowering. However the portion size is huge. This is def not for 1 person. The egg benedict was good but i felt that they put too much hollandaise sauce so it was very very saucy. Had a good flavor though. Not sure if the wait/hypr was worth it. I would def choose O&G in Old town area over this place.

We came here on a weekday morning and were seated after a 15 minute wait. I was so excited to try one of the highest rated brunch places in Montreal. The "indecisive" is such a great idea for those who want to try everything on the menu... like me! It came with 2 fried eggs, beans, breakfast potatoes, honey and orange glazed ham, and carrot cake pancakes. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge. There was nothing too special about the ham but the breakfast potatoes had rosemary and olive oil and some other delicious seasonings that made it so flavourful. The beans had some tomatoes in it and it was alright. The carrot cake pancakes were so fluffy and a bit heavy because of the portion but I thought it was the perfect amount of sweetness. Honestly, their entire menu looks so delicious and it would be great if I lived closer so I could try everything. Our server worked so hard, taking orders (by memory), juggling all the current customers' requests, and seating new customers. The restaurant was packed almost the entire time and the seats were close together. Also washroom was aesthetic! Note: - breakfast potatoes came with bacon (note for those who cannot eat pork) - tables are very close together (no physical distancing)

We were concerned we'd have to wait for a table when we arrived, but I guess since we came on a weekday it wasn't as busy so we got seated right away. The tables are very close in this restaurant, so as the morning went on and the tables filled it in got very crowded. I ordered the Red Shakshuka amd was very impressed with it. The portion was massive and it was bursting with flavour. The potatoes were great and I loved the poached eggs. My partner got the Pink Salmon Eggs Benedict and really enjoyed it as well. There were a lot of flavours and the avocado was a nice touch. This plate also had a very large portion that's a challenge to finish. We really wanted to try the Strawberry Nutella French Toast, so we asked if we could get it as a side and that was fine! They just gave us one slice of French toast and that was perfect! It was delicious but the bread is very thick so we would have a tough time eating a whole plate of it. The service here was fast and very friendly, so we really had no complaints about our experience today. Next time we're in Montreal we'll definitely be back here!

Love the vibes in this place and the food was great! The staff was friendly even though we spoke English. Highly recommend.

Best Mimosas & French Toast in Montreal! Stopped here for brunch with a friend and ordered the Indecisive with Pecan French Toast. The service was great, the only downside is the seating. It's uncomfortable how close the tables are to each other, it's hard to have a conversation or even move.

Wow! I am in love with this brunch spot and would give it 6 stars if I could. Everything from the food to the service was fantastic. Make sure to come hungry, since the portions are ginormous! My friend and I came by Tuesday morning around 10 am and was able to get seated immediately. I assume wait times can get long on the weekends but luckily no wait for an early weekday brunch. I started with a glass of their freshly squeezed orange juice ($5.24), and it was so good I got a second glass. They have a HUGE brunch menu. I've heard they're known for their benedicts, but since I'm not a huge fan of them, I went with the Indecisive ($18.94), which includes 2 eggs cooked your way + potatoes + 1 savory option + 1 sweet option. I had my eggs scrambled and chose the honey and orange glazed ham for my savory option and the lemon ricotta pancakes for me sweet item. I loved everything on my plate. The eggs were soft scrambled and not overcooked at all. The ham was super tender and flavorful. And the lemon ricotta pancakes blew my mind. I will admit, by itself the pancake is just okay, but the blueberry sauce and the sweet cream transforms each piece into a perfectly sweet and chewy bite. I typically don't go for the sweet items at brunch and am not a huge pancake person in general, but surprisingly I found myself reallllllllly enjoying this dish. My friend went with their veggie benedict, the Saint Ambroise ($18.34), which has mostly mushrooms and caramelized onions, and I can see why they're known for their benedicts. Each benedict is ginormous and has enough mushroom and onion for two benedicts at any other brunch place. My friend really enjoyed his dish. Service was really good as well. Our server, Audrey, checked in on us every once in a while to make sure we were good and our coffee cups were full.

Never disappointed always a great meal and not too busy during week parking has gotten to be more difficult

Cooks were "unable" or unwilling to accommodate dairy allergies. Somehow cooking with a clean pan and cutlery is not possible. Absolutely ridiculous in this day and age.

Food and service were amazing. Ordered the Bobby does Barbacoa and it was absolutely delicious. Came with a group of 12 and our server was amazing. Two bottles of champagne to share between 6 of us and we still had a lot left. Definitely worth the money

I recently visited L'Avenue and was excited to try the original Eggs Benedict, which are one of their most popular dishes. The eggs were perfectly poached and the hollandaise sauce was deliciously creamy. However, I found the ham quite salty and dominated the flavour. That being said, the restaurant itself is a fun and trendy spot with unique decor and a lively atmosphere. The service was friendly and attentive, and the staff were knowledgeable about the menu. I also had a chai latte, and while the taste was fairly average, I thought the cup that it was served in was large despite it being the regular size. This spot has tons of seating but get there early as it fills up!

From the food to their unique restaurant/ambiance L'Avenue is a vibe. Their French toasts are amazing, I had their Pecan Pie Style French Toast, it was perfectly sweet, without going overboard. The Bobby Does Dallas, Truffle Duck and Steak + Eggs did not disappoint either.

I missed this place on my last visit to Montreal since we arrived late and there was a long line up waiting outside. This time we arrived at L'Avenue around 9:30am and we were seated immediately, by 10am there was a line forming outside! Food was good. The Truffle Duck had shredded duck confit with mushroom, onions and arugula, mixed with black truffle paste. It's rich and creamy, a bit too salty for my taste, but goes very well with poached eggs and potatoes. Bobby Does Dallas is a cassolette with ribeye steak, onions and mushroom in a homemade BBQ sauce that's slightly sweet and tangy, plus scrambled eggs done just right. And the smoothie was large enough for two! Couldn't really taste the yogurt and honey, but the blueberries and banana were refreshing nonetheless.

It was okay. Got the huevos rancheros and the flavors were good but it was Lukewarm The melted cheese was not hot and same for the potatoes. Our server was very good. Friendly and prompt. Green tea was very good and hot. If no wait maybe stop in, but pass if there's a line. I did like the disco bathroom.

Mr. H and I were on a short layover and decided to try to place for brunch based on the numerous reviews on Yelp. I almost walked by it when I saw a mannequin like female figure in a striptease outfit behind the window, not what you expect to see at brunch, lol. We walked in and luckily got seated within 5 minutes, it's a very busy place, even on the weekday. The decor is... how do I put it... unique. It's an unusual view to see baby's and toddlers eating at a booth with poles (pole dancing poles) on either side. Moving on to the food, Mr.H ordered the pulled pork benny and absolutely loved it! Healso got a detox smoothie and the portion size on that is huge so beware. I on the other hand tried the sweetsavory + crunchy benny since it had all the base notes I now enjoy. It was really well made but again the portion size was enormous. All their main eggs benedict meals are served with filter coffee (free refills). The service was great from start to finish, the host, server, everyone was just super sweet. Will definitely recommend to people visiting Montreal!

We had a great brunch here: Great food and service. We had the vegetable egg white omelet and that will be the best omelet you will ever have and I eat a lot of omelets all over. It was incredible! And the service was so friendly and helpful! Americans need a passport and a vaccination card to dine here. The Pancake was also the best! You put that chocolate nutella on it--I am telling you--it will come close to your best orgasm. What did that boy just write? I had the salad side and it was soaking with Oil Dressing. Get the dressing on the side! (I usually do but wanted to trust them.) The side sesame bagel was not worth more than a bite. There was a 20 minute line outside to get in but it was worth it for that Omelet and Pancake. I would dine here again.

l'avenue M'ont Royale the best breakfast place!!! Very good Service, delicious food. I will always come back to eat delicious food and for a good mood. I highly recommend it.
