The food here was unfortunately rather mediocre. The breakfast potatoes were some of the worst I've ever had - they tasted like they had sat out for too long. The braised beef was super dry, and the coffee tasted watered down.
Having said that, the service was great, and the ambience was nice.

I’ve been here a few times and the food is absolutely delicious. Our server was kind and attentive. The only reason I gave it four stars was the entry line system. We checked the website and knew there aren’t reservations on weekends, but what we didn’t know is if your party is more than two people and your entire party is not there, they will not seat you until your entire party has arrived. Keep this in mind if you’re planning to go earlier than others in your party. They will seat others ahead of you, even if you got there first. We went early and ended up waiting outside for about 25-30 minutes. Aside from that, the queue does move along well and wait times don’t seem too bad. The food is well worth it!!!

Comfy restaurant. The dishes were tasty and the servers were super friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, no WiFi so I had to walk outside the restaurant to let my brother know where I was - so annoying. Being a global traveller, with an Asia phone, I find it wierd when a restaurant doesn't have WiFi for it's guests. This is an unfriendly attitude you only find of places Toronto and North Korea. Ha

I found this place a little pricey for what you get for food. Food was good, felt a little cramped inside. Staff was friendly.

This was the 3rd time that I visited this place. Of course their food and service is outstanding but the only disappointment I always have the wait time and I expect them to do something about seating or increasing the space as it feels to compact too. But if you ready to wait then it’s a green flag for you.

Came on a Monday so it wasn’t too busy. I tried the braised beef egg benny which was good, but I wouldn’t line up hours for it. Our server wasn’t attentive, we got bottomless coffee and no one came to refill. Had to flag down another server eventually. Also my bread had a piece of mold.

Service is good but food is overhyped. Nothing special. Hot chocolate tasted like nothing. AM Hash was good but not worth the wait
Honestly pretty surprised at how well this place is rated. I ordered the basic breakfast, and the potatoes were underdone and tasted of cooking oil. The salad was meh. Sausage was cold and dry. Eggs were nice, but for the price, I would expect a lot more.

Food was great. Unfortunately the girl that greeted us was grouchy and rude, her area was full and she said we could go up and look to see if they had space upstairs ourselves in a very short way - she was not our sever but did deliver our food to our table and again had a poor attitude towards us(not sure why…we had a great server and others working there were very pleasant). We went on a Tuesday around noon with two young kids to have a celebratory brunch for my husbands birthday and felt maybe she wasn’t happy with kids in the restaurant - in any case, what would have been a lovely brunch was ruined by a poor attitude.

Always my favorite restaurant to stop at when in town! Never been disappointed when I choose the Benny! The flavors are unreal. Great coffee, service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Had the migas and croque Monsieur along with a big green salad. The food was well prepared and quite delicious. However, is it worth the hour long wait on weekends? I don’t think it is THAT amazing. You’re best served by coming here on a weekday and avoid the long lineups.
