Lawrence Restaurant

Very cute and cosy restaurant serving a variety of small plates. I had the lentils and carrots which were absolutely delicious. The lentils in vinaigrette are savoury and fresh with some acidity brought by tiny pieces of pickles. The carrots were warm and sweet with a spicy touch from the muhammarra and a nice addition of mint (which surprised me). I had these two options with a cortado (delicious coffee by the way) and I felt comfortably full. The vegan options for breakfast are limited which is a pity but the server was nice enough to help me find vegan options in the menu. My friend had the pikelets which were buttery and fluffy, as well as a fried egg which she was very happy with. Went around 9:15am on a Sunday and was already bustling so I would go pretty early! The location is quite small but I really appreciate that it doesn’t feel extremely busy or noisy.

Here u could have amazing food for an affordable price. Located at the intersection of Fairmount avenue est and Boulevard Saint - Laurent. Exquisite decoration and high quality service. It's a nice place for a brunch or lunch. Even just for a cup of coffee and meet a friend. The burger was really delicious！

We did the tasting menu and everything was delicious. Pictures posted of each dish. Started with sushi - even though it wasn't cut with sushi knife, it was still sushi grade. They could open just a sushi restaurant if they wanted. Next was sardine with bacon on toast. The cabbage can out simultaneously. Then came a ravioli dish and then to the goose. Another salad of cucumber and radish was served with the goose. I wasn't a big fan of the beer called jet lag. For dessert we had apple bread which was amazing and the tart.

This restaurant makes you realize why Montreal is a wonderful city. This is an excellent place if you are looking for quality and service. Recipes are carefully made and delicately served. Tea and coffee are well chosen. The place is not big but simply decorated. I love it and I’ll come back. Second visit: I still confirm my wonderful last experience. Excellent ingredients and service. If you are looking for something different, this is the place to try without a doubt. The vibe is good and you feel the passion for perfection: what else!

I went to a brunch at Lawrence following advices from friends and websites. I was not disappointed. The staffs are very friendly. Work fast and very professional. Food is amazing. Different than the usual menu from other brunches. Lawrence feels like a fancy brunch. Food is amazing with a diversity of taste. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to eat a brunch there. On the other side, the place is small and waiting to get a table can be long. But the wait is worth it.

I had good memories from their previous location, was quite disappointed with the new place. The portions are ridiculously small (around 30$ for a plate the size of a starter, and the starters are the size of appetizers), and left me hungry. I tried to get dessert but the waitress never came. The food was tasty but not at all what is written on the menu, like they advertise a spaghetti dish but it's actually ramen noodles, not pasta lol. I probably won't return, even though the experience was not terrible, there are way better restaurants in this price range that give you actual food and service.
