Came here for brunch with my gf and it did not disappoint at all. We were seated right away as the restaurant was empty except for one other party at the time. We ordered the mushroom croissant brunch and lobster roll and the mango yuzu Mille feuille for dessert. Flavor wise all the food was so good and the portions were super filling - could barely breath after leaving the place. This spot is definitely worth your dollar and would highly recommend trying this place out! We will definitely be back!

I first tried this place on uber eats and I really liked it, the food was amazing and the quality as well, super well wrapped. I went in person to see how it was and I was surprised of how good the food and service was. I went again to try something different and I tried the pasta and dessert and everything was delicious. I definitely have this place as one of my favourite brunch places in Toronto!

Stopped by for desserts and got the ube buttermilk mini pancakes. Good amount, nice springy-chewy texture, though very faint ube flavour in both the pancakes and the ube cream. My friend got the loose leaf tea and said it was fine. Service was friendly. Place is spacious and bright. Prices seem fair. They have an extensive menu beyond desserts that you can check out.

Food is so delicious and good portions! Services were great, there were two waitresses with sweet smile making us feel happy to dine in here. Don’t need to wait for a long time for food, they serviced fast! Will come here with friends again!

One of my favourite Brunch Spots and definetly a fan favourite among my friends. This cafe has put me on the tiny pancake wave. The waffle fries are also so crispy and and enjoyable. Every item i have had has been amazing. There is a big line usually and no call based reservation so I would reccomend going and putting your name in on the waitlist cause this place is one to try!
