Lylac has it all: from food to shishas to dessert…read more Not only can you go to Lylac on a study date, but you can also go on a family dinner or lunch. The menu selection is huge, their meat is outstanding and the potato fries are just out of this world. I would also recommend trying their pizzas. The portions are generous, the service is quick and friendly. The prices are also very reasonable for the portion and quality. You can also ask the waiter to bring you a deck of cards, or traditional board games. As the place is almost always full, I would definitely recommend calling first to make sure there's room for you, I believe you can also make reservations. Overall, Lylac brings the Middle East to Montréal in a very cosy atmosphere.

My first visit to this restaurant based on a recommendation of a friend. It is a mix of Syrian and…read moreLebanese cuisine. The food is absolutely outstanding and fresh. The service was fast and very attentive. I am only giving them four stars because our server did not provide us with any Napkins and when we asked, he brought us paper napkins when all the tables had soft napkins. Also, he did not bring us any salt or pepper orolive oil. Which is a staple of any at Eastern restaurant. If it was not for that exception, they would get five stars from me.

Pigeon café is a great local chain that has been expanding through the city over the years. I…read morereally enjoy their locations and will go out of my way to stop at a Pigeon Café instead of one of the large national or international chains. The décor and ambiance at Pigeon is really nice, making it the perfect spot for either doing a little work solo or meeting up with friends to hangout. In addition to a nice coffee selection Pigeon has a great food menu to chose from and some excellent desserts as well. Pigeon café is just an all around great spot.

There was zero effort from the staff to address it, and the food was just average at best. No courtesy, no care--just a forgettable experience. We won't be returning.

We have been here a couple of times so far and every time we are so happy to have visited. Wonderful coffee and great cookies. My daughters are fans of the popsicles... in particular the creme brulé dipped in chocolate. I love their "œuf à la coque" (where else can you get that in Montreal!?). The owner enjoys chatting with his customers and you can tell he loves what he does! Great customer service and food! And the atmosphere is so whimsical... especially the bathroom which is perhaps the cutest public bathroom I have ever had the pleasure of using!

I've been grabbing cakes from here for a while and they're always a hit!…read more The cakes are nice and moist without being too sweet, though the buttercream can be a bit much for some. I've also tried most of the pastries and they're just as good as the cakes. My favorite is the coffee éclair, it's light, airy and sweet. Honestly, I like it more than the classic éclair. The coffee flavor just takes it up a notch. The icing on top can be a little sweet on its own, but it balances out well with the whole éclair. I always grab one or two when I'm in the area. The lemon raspberry cake is another favorite. It's light with just a hint of tartness, and the poppy seeds in the cake are a nice touch. The zeppoles are perfectly light, not greasy, and just sweet enough. I've also had the vanilla and caramel cake, and it's super soft and moist. The buttercream is on the sweeter side, but it goes really well with the cake. Black forest cake is lightly sweetened and I feel like I can eat a huge slice without it being overwhelming. Overall, this bakery is awesome, with a ton of variety. They've got baked goods, sandwiches, salads, and more. Definitely worth checking out!
