Was looking for BYOB and found this place, so we decided to have my husband's birthday dinner here. During the reservation process, the staff were very kind and helpful. The restaurant is nicely decorated and is on the smaller side but very quaint and cozy. The food was delicious and there are many options at pretty reasonable prices! And the carrot cake... OMG!!! Thank you L'in-time! - Meagan & family
I visited Matcha 2nd Gen Café on March 1st with friends, on one of those freezing winter days where you just want something warm and comforting. The service stood out right away. The staff were genuinely kind, and I was served by the owner, Sarah, who took the time to answer my questions and guide me through the menu based on what I felt like having. It made the whole experience feel more personal. We tried a few drinks: • Matcha 2nd Gen with coconut milk • Iced matcha with ube topping • Iced salted tiramisu matcha The ube was my favorite flavor, but I'd recommend asking for a lighter amount of topping if you prefer something less sweet and more matcha-forward. One thing I really appreciated is that the matcha actually tastes like matcha. It's not overly milky or sugary, which makes this a great spot for people who enjoy a more authentic flavor. We also had the cinnamon brioche, which was soft, well-balanced, and not too sweet. I'm usually not a big cinnamon roll person, but this one was definitely worth trying. The space is simple but thoughtful, with small details like board games available and a cozy playlist (early 2000s R&B when we visited) that adds to the overall atmosphere. The café is still relatively new, opened about 6 months ago, and you can feel the care behind it. They also offer seasonal drinks, so the menu changes regularly. Overall, a cozy and well-executed spot for quality matcha and a relaxed visit. I'd definitely come back.
Nouveau propriétaire Excellent accueil Atmosphère sympa Nourriture fraîche et bien garnie Un des top originis de Montréal
Went there based on the hype. Brought my sons and mother. Terrible stringy smoked meat. Full of fat. I related my opinion with the waitress. Showed her the strings. No response. 127 bucks for 4 and we couldn't finish it. Terrible management. Vying for profits at the detriment of their customers. Don't even go there.
Pizza délicieuse, pâte délicieuse aussi, service impeccable. J'ai adoré le restaurant et le service.
Not the best of experiences. When we sat down no drink menus were given to us which is surprising because we were 4 adults. We arrived at 7:40 and it took us almost 30 minutes to get our appetizers, and on top of that we only got half of our order for the main course and that was around 8 turning 9. I understand restaurants can get busy but seeing servers ask other tables (frequently) how they were doing and we barely got that(and it wasn't even who we ordered from that came to check up on us). It was my brothers birthday and he didn't even get to enjoy his meal at your establishment because from what we've gathered from speaking with the server it hadn't been notified to the kitchen yet. Just super long wait and mediocre service.
The sourdough and focaccia were delicious. We also got cinnamon rolls, quiche and two lattes, the guy who helped us to choose was patient and attentive and then we were greeted with a big smile from the kind lady who served us the coffee. An amazing experience 🥰
Les produits sont excellents, en particulier, les pains. Voté meilleure baguette en ville! Mais plus de places assises. Quoique ce n'est pas nécessairement la vocation de l'endroit .
