You must get a scone and/or the donuts. Other than that, throw a dart at the menu. You'll be happy no matter what. Not the cheapest place on Earth (average $15 a plate) but the food is fabulous and the menu changes pretty frequently to keep it fresh. Coffee is passable (it is no Caf\u00E9 Sardine). Great bloody mary, although the $8 stings more than the tabasco. If you get there even shortly after opening on a weekend, expect to wait an hour or so. Worth it tho. Just have a cup of tea on the couch and enjoy your spot in the queue. \n\nDINNER REVIEW:\nI've only been once for dinner in my year back in Montreal. I know I enjoyed myself and the food was quite good, but not mind-altering like brunch. For the price and the talent in the kitchen, I expected better. It was a while ago, so the details are a bit fuzzy. Given my love affair with their morning fare, I will definitely try it again and report.\n\nRating Scale:\n1 Star: Avoid the town in which this place is located just to be safe. \n2 Star: With so many great places to choose from, why risk this one?\n3 Star: I'll try it again or consume here in a pinch.\n4 Star: I go here regularly if financially and/or calorically feasible.\n5 Star: I look forward to taking my wife or friends here."^^ .
