Dame Tartine | Restaurant de Déjeuner & Dîner à Montréal — Restaurant in Montreal

First of all, I would like to say that I am confused about the general decor inside this restaurant. If you have never been here, allow me to describe so you can imagine for yourself. Picture a mixture of clashing colors as well as loud art work that one could assume was selected by a blind man. Shameful. Now for my dining experience. Our server seemed normal until our food arrived at our table. My friend had ordered a smoked salmon platter hold the onions and capers. However this is not what arrived. When the server came to deliver the onion infested disaster he promptly realized he was being overpaid and chucked the onion over his shoulder hoping no one would notice. We did notice. Then he brazenly presented this steaming horror to her face and did not even offer to replace it with something else. My other friend somehow missed half his meal. He could have starved to death, and in fact afterwards we’re pretty sure he lost his job. Also when asking for rye, he seemed to forget how to speak English and resorted to staring. Save yourself the trouble and go out...

As an allergic, I felt let down by this restaurant. I only ordered a fruit plate with plain bread as to not take chances with my milk allergies. I even specified that I was deathly allergic to milk products. When I received my plate after 2 hours (I'm not even kidding), the bread was buttered. I had to send the plate back. After another 45 mins, I received my plate with the good order this time but the plate was smeared with pesto (which I am allergic to due to the cheese inside it). I had to again send my plate back in again. I received my plate of fruit after another 25 mins.

So I began ordering at 11h and left at 15h to eat a plate of fruit. A complete joke. Only reason for the 2 stars is that the waiter was...

Where: Dame Tartine - Montreal, Quebec What: A breakfast restaurant. How was it: We preferred their previous location on Ontario, it was a little more authentic and casual. This new place is bigger, yay for them but it's lost the charm and feels industrial. This translates in the food, like they say, you eat with your eyes. So the decor is important and so is the presentation. But we enjoy our traditional dishes, eggs Benedict and French Toast sandwiches. Grade: Eli = 4, Serge = 4 Recommend: Yeah, try the Benedict and French Toast...
