Description

History

Established in 1993.

The Eggspectation concept was created by Eggspectation Group, with a first restaurant in downtown Montréal in 1993. Since then Eggspectation restaurants have become synonymous with innovation, high quality food, excellent service, and a unique and exciting dining experience.

Today, we have eleven restaurants in Canada, five in the U.S., three in India and one in Dubai. And we’re not done yet! Our objective is to open one in a neighbourhood near you.

At Eggspectation, we’re committed to innovation and achievement. Surpassing your «eggspectations» is what inspires us to be extraordinary. We strive to give you the best possible food quality and service while maintaining a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Welcome to what we call «le cirque des œufs,» an all-​day experience.

Very good breakfast, I ordered an omelet. The smoothie was good and so was the coffee. They have a large menu and great service. Solid place, you will be full and happy, but its not out of this world. I would come back again.

Went to Montréal on a business trip and we came here for breakfast. I ordered the «Southwest Sunrise» omelette and it was yummy. The waiter was friendly and charming. I would come back here if I’m ever in Montréal again.

Vous avez faim d’oeuf? Alors, c’est la qu’il faut vous arrêter. Pocher, frits, en sauce, en omelette, battus, rebattus, cuits ou crus, ils vous attendent accompagnés délicieuse fèves sucrées aux lardons et de très bonnes pommes de terre a la lyonnaise.
Si vous n’êtes pas en plein hiver, vous pourrez profiter de la terrasse couverte et protéger dans ce quartier calme et super typique du mont royal. Shopping et détente à proximité. Enjoy!

In loooove with the French toast flambé. I’ve ordered it everytime I visit this place in Montréal. I’ve been to alot of brunch spots and hands down it’s 5he best french toast I’ve ever had in life. Service is good. Smoothies are delicious. Lots of menu choices. Pretty outdoor seating.

We were here for a university reunion breakfast so it was a large group. They were able to accommodate us at the back, which was nice since it is a medium sized restaurant. It sure did not feel like a chain restaurant as the décor was contemporary but cozy and in tune with the cute little restaurants and shops on the street. Perfect for a Sunday bf followed by a visit round the corner to the Tam Tams in the park on Parc Avenue. Wife enjoyed her steak and eggs and I liked the signature Eggspectation omelette. Plenty of other items on the menu including waffles, sandwiches, crepes, pancakes, etc. large lunch menu too. Would definitely visit this restaurant again when in the neighbourhood

This place is fantastic. I’ve been here so many times its actually embarrassing. The wait staff is attractive and friendly and hip. The place is beautiful and gets good sunlight. The food is very well made and they even care about its appearance, however what matters at the end of the day is the taste, and their food really is spectacular. It is a chain, so don’t expect a mom and pop feel, but despite this fact the food is very tasty and the menu is eclectic. The range of the cuisine is admirable.
Recommend: their mimosas and sangria (not sure if seasonal) were out of this world
ANYTHING in their Benedict section is phenomenal.
Their hardy platters are good as well and all of their sandwiches so far have been satisfactory.

Tantôt l’allure trop droite d’une franchise, tantôt Eggspectation s’exprime chaleureux son fibre d’un resto du coin. La nature du menu se confirme au plus textuel possible. Mon assiette ‘Le Classique’ est bien, rien de plus. Un défaut. Servir des avocats, qu’ils soient peu ou prou, le plus mure possible est meilleur en bouche. Lorsque l’avocat en tranche demande à être croquée davantage que le pain, euh…

Everything was excellent and service was up to par. The steak was well moist and tender. The wife couldn’t get enough of her eggs benedict. Overall a great eggspectation for breakfast.

We were staying at the Ritz and wanted a nice breakfast. We really enjoyed our experience. Overall we had good service and the food was very good. I had perfectly cooked eggs and my SO had French toast. The prices were pretty reasonable too!

Perhaps we had unrealistic expectations for this place, having gone to L’Avenue the day before, but boy was it bad. Service beyond slow, despite the place being only half full, latte so bad as to be un drinkable. I actually sent it back, twice and told them to forget it. Pancakes were meh, poached eggs rubbery, need I say more? When we got the check, they made a big deal of saying they didn’t charge me for the latte I couldn’t drink!!! Should hope not… won’t be back.

A friend brought me here for breakfast as it was my last day in beautiful Montréal. Once I figured out the street naming Ouest/​Est convention I finally found it!
We were greeted and seated pretty immediately but it seemed to be pretty busy inside. Since this was the morning after lots of drinks, I wasn’t TOO hungry so my friend and I shared an omelet. He also let me try his orange juice which was amazing and fresh squeezed. Errr, I stuck with water though, you know, being the morning after and all.
I cannot remember the name of the omelet we got but it was REALLY good, stuffed with sausage and veggies, it was big enough to share. Also on the side were a few pieces of fruit and some roasted potatoes which were also REALLY good!
Lastly, I love the name of it, very cute!
