This was my second time at this restaurant. Both times the food was amazing. You order the food at the counter. I ordered the chicken crepe, French onion soup and a chai latte. They ran out of the syrup for the chai latte. The owner was very apologetic and allowed me to chose a strawberry cheese danish on the house instead. Everything I ordered was delicious. The crepes came out perfect and the French onion soup was very flavorful. The danish was very fresh and I could tell it was homemade with high quality ingredients. My only complaint was the cashier was not friendly or welcoming when my friend and I ordered our food this past visit, but the high quality of the food allowed me to overlook this.

Had a reservation for brunch on 12/3/22. Restaurant was closed. Was not notified, and this seemed pretty inconsiderate.

Really cute restaurant! It's kind of hidden and the only parking is on a one way street, but the actual restaurant itself was huge and very nice. We got there around 11am and all the tables were reserved so they gave us window seating, which we actually preferred. The white chocolate mocha and pumpkin spice latte were both yummy and not too sweet. My boyfriend got the steak and eggs that he thought was good but nothing special. I got the croque monsieur with the french onion soup. The french onion soup was our favorite thing, sooooo good!! Croque monsieur was yummy too. Overall the food and ambience was great. Just wish that the portion sizes were a little larger. We're comfortable but not quite full. We would definitely come back though to try other dishes and get the onion soup again.

Their brunch menu is really good, I got a croque madame and I loved it. The drinks were great too, my favorite was a fall special mimosa with apple cider and caramel. Not giving 5 stars because service was quite slow, even though the restaurant wasn't full. We would finish our drink and wait a long time for our server to come back.

Miguel and the rest of the staff were amazing! So friendly, attentive, and pleasant all around! Not to mention the barista made these cute designs in each of our coffees.

Excellent experience at Mon Ami; I would recommend making a reservation, but the host was kind enough to squeeze us in even though they were fully booked. The food was excellent, and everything tasted fresh. The servers were lovely and attentive to everyone. They have a full coffee bar with a professional barista; the coffee tasted better than Starbucks!!!! I can’t wait to go back next weekend!!

I love coming here for brunch! The host Miguel was amazing. Along with greeting and seating people, he was also going around and helping everyone out. He even cleared a few tables to sit some other guests! My waitress today, Belle, was amazing! She knew what she was doing and was a pleasure to have a little chit chat with. And the food is delicious ?. Will continue to tell my friends and coworkers about Mon Ami

Located at Buffalo downtown, it has a very inconspicuous entry, but the inside is just delightful. It has high ceilings, giant windows that makes the place very lit up during the day time. Make sure you call up the place before going if you need to make any reservation. We entered into a full house on a Sunday morning, so we needed to wait at the bar area. We ordered French soup, Parisian egg benedict, egg and sausage in a croissant sandwich. The croissant was crispier. The sandwich lacked taste. The eggs benedict tasted good. I wish they had more hollandaise sauce in it. The waitress told us that there was only one chef for the entire Sunday breakfast time which is why there was a longer wait for our food. Keeping aside the beautiful decor, you will find better taste elsewhere in Buffalo for the same price.
Brunch at Mon Ami- a beautiful, Parisian Cafe with delicate details. Their Eggs Benedict Croissant was a delight, as were their home fries.I liked the peppers and onions that they stir-fried with the potatoes. The Croissant seemed to be too crispy for my taste but the bacon and ham, with the silky hollandaise sauce was a winner. The bowl of French Onion soup was hearty, and felt wonderful as long as it was hot. The Omlette Croissant felt refreshing and crisp on the balmy, rainy day. My husband said it was a little dry and would have enjoyed a sauce as a side. The bowl Of fruits were fresh and acted as a palette cleanser. Their brewed coffee hits hard. It woke me up! As we waited, the waitress kindly served us Macaroons that were an instant mood lifter!! It was a lovely brunch, even made lovelier by the present company.

Came here for brunch with a friend, there weren't any coffee options while having a breakfast menu. Our server was giving us options from what she remembered and when the coffee arrived it was not made well. It was very watered down and didn't have any flavor. I got the French toast which was subpar, it was disappointing because I could have made something better at home. I don't think I will come here again because of the lack of quality.

After searching much of Buffalo for a breakfast spot that's not fast food we found this gem. Really good drinks and food PLUS an on site barista who can make anything. Also, end your breakfast with a bunch of macarons.. they're worth it. ☺️

We recently discovered this restaurant and have gone three times now with different groups of people. The ambience and decor are wonderful and each dish we have ordered has been delicious, flavorful and cooked to perfection!!

Had the scallop risotta. My son had the duck. Both were excellent and beautifully presented. So was the salmon tartine and creme brule. My husband was disappointed in the coq au vin; ok both not great. Small portions of wine were disappointing. Definitelly would go back.
