Very cozy, perhaps too cozy... I made reservation and I am glad I did as it was packed inside. I ordered the cheesesteak sandwich with the side salad. The sandwich was great, the "cheese" was a cashew style cheese. The "meat" was also perfectly marinated, 5/5. The side salad was leafy greens and pumpkin seeds. The vinegarette was balsamic, it was good but the salad did not have a lot of dressing on it, 4/5. Service was prompt and courteous. Prices are decent. Definitely recommend

We tried the eggplant batha and "steak" sandwich on a pretzel bun. The eggplant was full of flavor. The "steak" was seitan meant to mimic not steak, but brisket. It was very good, and we particularly like the bun. It was served with a side salad, though there was an option to substitute a sweet potato for a small charge. It is a cute little place that also has beer and wine. Sorry, I forgot to take pics of the food.

If you are thirsty or hungry, or just feel like having an healthy snack during your break, I would highly recommend this place. Plus, Alexa who is taking care of Crux is such an inspiring and dynamic person. They don't offer only juice, kombucha and smoothie, but also wraps, salads and yogurts. The wrap I ordered was super healthy and tasty. I also tried two smoothies this week and they were both delicious. I love the organic coffee they use for their iced latte. Since Crux opened, I try to go everyday. It's so convenient and directly in the middle of The Square. I'm going to become a regular there and you should try it ASAP.

All and all I enjoyed this restaurant- the portions were reasonable and the food was tasty. Staff were bilingual which was great. When we were done, and had to use the restrooms, I was surprised/ disappointed with my selection of restrooms. They had three bathroom doors: one labelled for men, and two labeled for both men and women. Question... where's the female's only bathroom? Why are there two gender neutral and one man and ZERO women? Make this make sense. Why wouldn't you just have one for each? Make everyone happy. It's a shame, the ambiance was beautiful the place was clean, the service was good and the food was good, but I can't say I'd go back knowing as a biological female I'm not worthy of restroom for people like me.

My friends and I went for the buffet after practice and it was perfect. The food was warm and we ate enough for the price. My plate was around $17 and I was very full by the end of it. The food is warm and delicious. Some stuff was missing since it was very close to closing but that's ok. I do wish the dessert was included in the price (it's a separate weight fee). The restaurant is big (the buffet is upstairs) so there's enough seating if you go with a group. It's always nice to add another vegetarian/vegan restaurant to my list of recommendations!

It reminded me of cities in Europe where this is very common (think Scandinavia or Switzerland.) It wasn't fully vegan but there were plenty of vegan options and they were all well-labeled.

The staff was really helpful when we arrived, explaining any of the little details about how their particular service works. And there was A LOT of seating, so this is a good option if you have a somewhat larger group. My partner and I got a view overlooking the bottom floor and outside and it was perfect.

Especially when it comes to breakfast and brunch, the options are toast with PB&J, not even potatoes because they're fried in animal fat. So as you can imagine as soon as I saw Copper Branch finally opened, I rushed there and I even gave up the free lunch I was supposed to get from the company, which usually has salads and sandwiches with roasted vegetables as vegan options. Or some weird thick pizza with just tomato sauce on it. Yum....... Not! I tried the general Tao bowl which was quite tasty, especially with quinoa as a base. So if you're vegan or not give it a try, it's already getting quite busy at lunch time, that's clearly a testimony to the vegan food dessert I was talking about.

There is a sink for customers get water and empty cups which I thought was a nice touch.I wouldn't say their staff cleans up often because I saw bowl toppling over with a full garbage and recycling bins.

I also tried the Copper Burger, kind of odd seeing a "beet" burger, in no way does it taste like meat...but it was very good as a sandwich...just don't call it a burger ;) Everything was fresh and very well presented! Prices vary between $8 - $12. I can't believe I'm saying this...but I will definitely be back even though I would normally grab a burger from a fast food joint! Give it a try and don't let the "vegan" scare you off, think of it as "tasty HEALTHY fast food joint" instead!

My wife and I were craving some Indian food while visiting Montreal and we saw Veranda had really…read moregood reviews so we wanted to try it! It's towards the top of Old Montreal so we had a nice walk to and from the restaurant. We were greeted by the host and sat down immediately. The restaurant inside was very pretty and had low lighting to make it look very intimate. I'd definitely consider Veranda a fine-dining Indian restaurant. We ordered the samosa tarts and malai chicken tikka from the appetizers and both were absolutely delicious! We also ordered mango lassi, butter chicken, and garlic naan (all automatic orders for us when we go to Indian restaurants) and none of them disappointed. However, we were a little disappointed that they didn't have a few menu items that we see back home or at other Indian restaurants like onion bhaji, pakora, biryani and tandoori chicken. The only complaint we had was the service wasn't that great. Our order was taken a few minutes after viewing the menu and the staff was very friendly but after we finished our appetizers, we felt neglected as other tables were served their food and we were waiting 25-30 minutes to get served our main dish. We had to let the server know that we were done our appetizers and ready for the main dish. I'm not sure if this is normal in Montreal or at Indian restaurants in Montreal? Other restaurants we were served our courses immediately one after the other, with maybe 5-10 minutes in between. It wasn't busy either for a Wednesday night where they only had 3-4 tables. Regardless, we would recommend Veranda to anyone craving Indian food who wants to eat in Old Montreal! The food is delicious!
