The front area is a bakery with beautiful dessert displays. I wish I had a room for dessert. We came for the Quiche Lorraine, and the portion was huge -- probably enough for 3 people, I would say. It had a lot of meat, with some kind of special ham/bacon, and the flavor was delicious. If you like meat, this is the dish for you. I definitely recommend it! Personally, I would have liked a little more egg custard in the quiche. The Eggs Benedict was delicious as well. The drinks were great and the service was top-notch. Highly recommend!.

I absolutely loved their desserts. I will say though, they are pretty expensive. the pear dessert…read morealone was $15 before tax. We got the pear dessert, lemon meringue, and Ferrero chocolate cake, and together the three desserts came to around $45. Honestly, I didn't want to like them as much as I did because of the price, but they were all so good that we immediately wanted more. The pear dessert was light and delicate, while the outer white chocolate layer added a really nice crunch. I was super happy to see them because they were viral on TikTok lol. The Ferrero chocolate cake was super creamy and rich, and even the base had that delicious Ferrero flavor throughout. The lemon meringue was also light and refreshing, while the bottom crust still had a nice firmness to it in a good way. Every dessert was super flavorful and tasted amazing. The staff greeted us right away when we came in for takeout, and everyone was very friendly. They also helped pack our desserts, although I personally would have preferred if each dessert was packaged separately. The shop itself is really cute too. They have an adorable heart and rose sign outside, and all the desserts are displayed at the front. They also sell croissants and other little pastries/snacks as well.

The breakfast sandwhich we got seemed fresh but bland. It definitly needed hot sauce or something but that would have made it pretty decent.

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.

The space inside is tight and by the time we left, there was a significant queue, so keep that in mind. The food was extremely filling but not too heavy at all. The vegan breakfast provided a good variety that was rich in flavor. I will be back on my next trip.

Glad it was open by 9 when we were hungry. My husband is a real aficionado of Eggs Benedict, and it looked like I'd find food here too. I went in with medium to low expectations for myself, high for him. We both had a marvelous meal! He loved his Benedict, and I loved my açaí bowl. We both had the potato wedges, he had them with Parmesan-truffle--which he really loved. There were good juice blends and smoothies, good coffees, plain and fancy, mine had almond milk--and the cost was reasonable for all we had. Service very friendly.

I ordered the Dutch baby and it just wasn't anywhere near as fluffy as I expected. It was much more apple pie-ish than Dutch baby. Good, but way too sweet for me, and I don't think I would reorder. I couldn't even finish 1/4 before a sugar coma. My husband got the chicken and waffles and said the waffle was dry, the chicken was just okay and nothing came together. Service was fine. Not overly friendly, but checked in often enough. The restaurant itself is STUNNING. Tons of greenery, bright natural light, and good spacing between tables.

The restaurant didn't provide a high chair for our baby, which was a bit disappointing. The service was good with our waitress checking with us to order and being prompt and attentive. Here is what we ordered: Grilled Cheese O+G (8/10) - the bread with the grilled cheese and caramelized onions were cooked well. The homemade ketchup had a sweet taste to it and was brought out a little colder than room temperature. I probably would have preferred the ketchup/tomato sauce to be a bit warmer. The Chicken Melt (8/10) - this sandwich was pretty big. It had grilled chicken in a creamy sauce, some Cole slaw (actually a lot of Cole slaw) and some dill pickles. The sandwich was a bit messy to eat and I think it had a little too much Cole slaw, but it was a good sandwich, nonetheless. Overall, I good experience with a few suggestions in my review that I think would have made it really great.

Absolutely nothing wrong with the food. I had the smoked salmon eggs Benedict and a side of the fries with Beschemel sauce and truffles and they were great, it's just it was a little too rich for me, that's all. I came in with a group of 6 and other members of our group had the ricotta pancakes, the Ratatouille Eggs Benedict and everyone enjoyed their brunch. It's a pretty small space almost like a cross between a diner and a bistro, elevated casual I guess. Service is brisk and the servers are friendly. I saw that they have a late night menu so maybe at some point, I'll come back to try it out.

The chimichurri mayo , apple slaw, and super crispy chicken were utter perfection. Seriously, you have to try this place no matter the wait.

Lastly the extras... chai tea latte, fresh OJ, and even the chocolate chip cookie (which has candied pecans inside!) were top notch.
