Ben & Florentine - Québec

Just tried to have my first Ben and Florentine breakfast. Drove out to the nuns island branch, of course I checked if they serve breakfast late like all breakfast restaurants BUT they wouldn't serve us. It was 2:30 PM and they close at 3:00PM. But nope, they wouldn't seat us or serve us categorically refused. Their explanation was that when only a few tables are left being served they close the kitchen. REALLY! Very dissatisfied and disappointed. Needless to say we will never go back and as it's a policy to close the kitchen at random times I will also heed all my friends to this policy. Poor business conduct on their part and as restaurants are struggling to stay afloat, there are many who will gladly accommodate us even half an hour before their posted closing time.

Great service but ingredients and cooking need improved. We had breakfast and most things felt frozen and/or microwaved. :

Thursday July 13, 8.30 am . Have ordered takeout a few times and the food is good. The problem is when you dine in the service is lacking. This morning waited 5 minutes to be seated at the entrance. After being seated waited another 10 minutes with two waiters passing by multiple times without taking my order taking my order. Waiters seem uninterested and lacking service skills. After 10 minutes of waiting I stood up and left.Parking: Easy parking

Best service ever!!! Thank you Lenre for the absolute best service ever. We were in a hurry and we were server so rapidly. By far the best waiter in town!!!
