Quoi De N’oeuf

Been here a few times, food is good but the service is ALWAYS horrible. We called and checked what time they close at, after showing up with enough time to eat the busboy or waiter who answered us at the door made us feel so uncomfortable about staying and continuously reminded us of our time frame, even after I called and got confirmation that when we showed up in the next ten minutes we’d have enough time and wouldn’t be inconveniencing anyone. Long story short we didn’t stay and I definitely won’t be going back or suggesting this place to anyone. The only reason it give it two stars is they sadly do have good food.

Seemed like the staff just didn’t want us there. The hostess was stressed out, unequipped for the task at hand. Service seemed good at first, then the quirky sprinkles of attitude turned into rudeness. The separating of the bill seemed to be a huge ordeal our server looked very put out, tapping the huge calculator on the wall so hard it bounced.
Dry sausage topped this off for me as a no. Worst, it was my friends birthday and and a reunion of sorts. :(

Superbe endroit de déjeuner pas trop cher. Le service n’est pas le meilleur mais n’est pas le plus pire non plus. Je vais manger à ce restaurant environ 1 fois par mois et je suis toujours très satisfaite coter papilles gustatives. Les saucisses sont un must, il faut en avoir mangé pour le savoir!

I’ve had better breakfasts in the U.S. in the middle of nowhere than at this place.
All the other 4 and 5 star reviews must be from friends or family members because there is no way this place ranks as a 4 or 5… that, or my standards for a basic breakfast are too high.
SERVICE
Crap. Obviously.
Condescending, rude, they ignored me the entire time I was there and was not interested in serving me.
FOOD
Subpar. The only thing worth eating on the plate were the fried potatoes but that’s because they crisped them well and put seasoning salt all over them.
The rest of the meal was crap. I had the omelette (does it matter which kind? it won’t matter because they will more than likely all suck). Underseasoned, watery… need I go on?
OTHER ANNOYING THINGS
Maple syrup is $ 2.83 extra. WTF? Why don’t you just give free Aunt Jemima’s maple syrup and if people want «real» maple syrup, then charge them $ 0.50 extra? How much goddamn syrup do you think people are eating to charge them $ 2.83 extra?
The menu is all over the place and confusing with its placement of wording and boxes. Get it together, it’s all a mashed French /​English and in some areas, confusing to know what tehy are referring to.
Nope. Not coming back.
Should have trusted my instincts and gone to the Mamie Clafoutis down the road. At least I would have been satisfied with a real croissant and pain au chocolat.
Gah. What a waste of money. I’m kind of annoyed right now.
Freakin’ lying Unilocalers.

Good value overall, but your choice of brunch place will depend on what you’re looking for…
Quoi De Neuf has a great variety of breakfast options, fresh juices and at least one smoothie. Their potatoes are nice and crispy, the food is generally good. Although beware: you’ll have to pay if you want real maple syrup (3 $ for a 1oz bottle). However their café au lait is mediocre at best.
Toi, Moi et Café nearby had much less choice in terms of food and fresh juices, and the style is slightly different (eg. Soft breakfast potatoes), but their coffee is MILES ahead, a real treat!
Take your pick

Très bonne localisation, non loin du marché Atwater et du canal de Lachine. Placement et service très rapide. Petit bémol dans les assiettes avec des légumes au gout de poêlé congelé. Les crêpes étaient bonnes et le prix était raisonnable.

Had breakfast with friends and enjoyed food, service & venue. One downside is the nigh level of noise from the small area.
I would definitely go back again.

Really nice place for breakfast — especially during the week when you don’t have to compete with the weekend brunch-​and-​crying-​kid crowds. If you go on the weekends, I strongly suggest getting there before 10AM for a table or else the line can be really long and you’ll have to wait (hence the crying kids!)
Good coffee and eggs, and terrific service. Love the wait staff there.

Premier et dernier passage chez eux …
Nous sommes rentrés sans trop d’attente dans ce commerce et nous sommes ressortis encore moins enthousiasmés …
Au niveau de la carte elle est très classique pour les brunch. Vraiment rien qui sort de l’ordinaire.
Nous avons pris :
— œuf bénédictine jambon, champignon et brie: la portion de patate est juste minuscule et on retrouve à peine un petit morceau de melon et d’orange. Histoire de dire qu’il y a un minimum de fruits … On me sert le plat au début sans jambon. Après m’en etre rndu compte j’appelle le serveur et lui demande si c’est normal que je n’ai pas de jambon dedans. Il né demande le plu simplement du monde «si j’en veux ?». En même temps il s’agit d’un ingrédient du plat donc oui que j’en veux … Pas d’excuse, rien du tout et on évoque comme d’hab le «nouveau en cuisine» qui a du se tromper. Ok pour l’erreur mais pas que le serveur prenne un air condescendant derrière et me sorte ca. Je m’en fout qu’il ait 1J ou 10 ans de service … Le plat en lui même n’a rien de particulier et je né sens pas vraiment le gout du brie ce qui est bien dommage …
— déjeuné traditionnel: les saucisses né sont vraiment pas bonne. On retrouve des saucisses purement industriel où on a l’impression que c’est un conglomérat de viande réunis. Quand on voit arrivé la saucisse on se demande si c’est même bien une saucisse. Le gout n’en parlons pas … Le reste de l’assiette vraiment basique niveau qualité …
Très déçu donc des plats et du service … Nous né vous le conseillons pas du tout !

Hands down my favourite place to brunch on the entire island.
Everything about Quoi de n’Oeuf is perfect! The staff is adorable, everyone is friendly and helpful without being overbearing. The split second you sit down; you’re offered a cup of coffee on top of that you never have to ask for more since the waiters have some sort of spidey sense and are always offering more when your start running low.
The second most important part of a brunch after coffee is food. You won’t be disappointed here! The food is fresh and not too greasy compared to other spots. I love the portions size, big enough to brunch but not too much that you can’t barely get up your chair. Like I mentioned in the top section, the fruits are always fresh and ripe so it’s worth forking the price to get an extra sides of them. I like how they go the extra mile to offer you a nice variety to change it up a bit from the usual. For example, try the baguette instead of plain toasts. While you’re at it get the cretons as part of your meat choice. It’s delicious on said baguette! The house specialty is fried eggs in a skillet with choices of vegetables and meats. It’s very popular with the patrons and as delicious. It’s also bigger and richer than their other plates. The only negative I can see with the food is that for bigger appetites, the plates are either small or they don’t serve enough potatoes. Not a problem for me since I can barely finish my plate as it is but the boyfriend expects me to finish my plate so he can fulfill his appetite fully if you see what I mean.
Price wise, it’s cheap to moderate. The skillets and crepes are a bit more expensive but a full breakfast will cost you around $ 10 tax in. The place is not very big but you can easily skip the line if you get there prior to 10 a.m. If you do have to wait in line, it usually goes by pretty fast. It does get more busy when it’s sunny outside.
While some people may argue that they’re not the most creative, and they’re not completely false, Quoi de N’oeuf remains at the top of my list because they do a classic breakfast well. I love venturing out to try something new but sometimes you just can’t beat a classic!
P. S. For the coeliac people out there, they offer a gluten-​free muffin (individually wrapped) with yogurt and fruits. My coeliac mom tried it and wasn’t contaminated! That’s bonus points for me!!! :)

Le personnel est très accueillant, les petits déjeuners sont toujours excellents, leur crème hollandaise est à tomber. Très bonne adresse pour bruncher !

Pour un brunch sans se casser la tête, l’endroit est idéal.
Excellent service, des employés tout sourire nous accueillent et nous servent le plus gentiment du monde!
La nourriture est correcte. Rien d’extravagant, pas de déjeuners hyper élaborés, mais de quoi bruncher rapidement et se sustenter à prix raisonnable.
Comme tous les restos de ce genre, il se remplit rapidement le week-​end… d’autant plus qu’il est situé dans un coin très effervescent, à proximité de plusieurs services…

De bon matin, nous prenons le métro avec une amie pour nous rendre de l’autre côté du Mont-​Royal afin d’aller dénicher une nouvelle place de brunch.
Ce fut une belle découverte! La déco n’est pas éblouissante, les plats pas transcendants, mais le juste milieu de tout cela nous a fait passer une belle matinée. De plus, le service fait partie de mes très bons souvenirs.
Je né retournerais pas faire tout ce trajet (car ce n’est pas mon quartier de résidence) uniquement pour cette place, comme on a pu le faire cette fois-​ci. Mais elle mérite tout de même d’être testée!
Bön appétit! :)
