I was with my grandchildren and didn’t want to make a seen, but they didn’t touch their grey coloured hamburger patties. The waiter just laughed and gave them some stale cinnamon bread. I will be contacting the manager tomorrow and there will be hell to pay if this is not immediately looked after. What a disgrace.

We went at 1 hoping to avoid the lunch rush which we did . The service was very slow, we weren’t asked if we would like a drink food took 15-20 min to arrive. The tomato soup was the consistency of a chilly or very thick stew, sadly it had chickpeas in it and I was unable to eat it. I asked for fries instead and eventually got Luke warm dried out fries. Minimal effort and just ok food not worth going again .

My partner and I have visited a few times now, and though the food is great, the breakfast portions are a little small. And when you sit outside the service lacks; you feel forgotten. Overall we keep giving this spot chances because the food tastes great and the place has a cozy feel.

I would have given zero stars if I could. I don’t understand the hype over this place at all. The service was slow and getting anybody to notice us was hard. Since arrival and until we got our food, we waited more than 40 minutes. And this was a weekday! Food was not good. I ordered a veggie omelette and it was overpriced for what I got - a small, bland omelette and a tiny handful of potatoes, burnt and over salted. Left the restaurant still hungry because the portions were so small. Didn’t even include toast (or did they forget?). Place was noisy and music loud, giving us a headache. Definitely will not return!!!! Horrible. Save your money and go somewhere else that can actually give you a good experience.

Good place to hang out with friends and family. Decent portion of breakfast. Kav and others provide great customer service.

Great vegan options for breakfast/lunch! Food is tasty and I love the artwork they have hanging up!

Went today (semi busy Sunday, not full but steady) and it was disappointing compared to many years ago when I went regularly. Very slow service. Also, small detail, but having fries or breakfast sausage without ketchup is just not ideal - they bring you what I assume is homemade ketchup but truly just tastes like crushed tomatoes/salsa. Wouldn’t order anything that is good with ketchup in the future. Pancakes were good though

Amazing breakfast! Cinnamon buns are the excellent. I would travel the world just to get one!

I swear I already left this review. But it was the first time I've ever been a friend was taking me out for my birthday. The 109th Street Burger was pretty awesome. I can't remember what the desert was called I think it was like chocolate pecan pie or something. It was good but it was quite Rich so if someone doesn't really like Rich desserts you might want to be careful. Don't know when I'll be back but I will definitely be back there's a couple other things I'd like to try especially get there for breakfast. I just hate waking up before 8:00.
This is a wonderful brunch spot near the university of Alberta. Great food and awesome customer service. I loved their cinnamon rolls - you gotta try them and apparently they run out quickly. As it's super popular you may want to get there earlier than you would normally plan. Our wait time was about 25 minutes. They also have parking right across the restaurant along the fence which is super helpful in case you are driving in downtown. Can't wait to be back.

A little disappointing and the service was subpar - our server was so flustered seating a kids' birthday party that she barely had time for us. Once our food came we never had anyone come by to see how we were doing. My partner's burger was tasty and, as always, the homemade ketchup delicious, but my Mediterranean plate could have used some love. While most of it was tasty (the chicken souvlaki and hummus particularly!) the pita that came with it tasted old and dry. I'd have expected either homemade pita or something from one of several excellent pita bakeries in the city, not something that came from Safeway's day olds shelf. At the very least, it should have been toasted. The overall dish was good but there are plenty of better places in the city that serve better food with greater enthusiasm.

Our server gave us special care for my mother's birthday dinner. An enjoyable experience and a pleasant atmosphere for our evening out. Also many gluten free choices for those with food allergies.

Food was good, service fast, and I enjoy restaurants with art work displayed.
