The Brunch buffet, The food was good, service was 5 star Michelin, excellent atmosphere.
Huge variety of food.
desserts were 5 star, meats were 3-4 star, sides were good.
Service & atmosphere justify the price... the food does not.
We got a better chicken meal the night before for a fraction of the cost.

We had high tea & it was a very nice experience at a reasonable price (for high tea.) The staff were very accommodating in setting us up with a nice table & the atmosphere is elegant but not stuffy. The food & tea were very good & of excellent quality & presentation. The only downside is that their waitstaff seem stretched thin across too many tables, making it hard to get assistance when needed. Again, I'm not sure the fault lies with the waitstaff but rather is a matter of understaffing a very popular event.

I am always so used to have walked by that restaurant looking in & I had never actually set foot inside. I was more than pleased the place was just splendid. Like the sign says at the entrance it was quite a magical vacation moment...The melted Brie kind of stole my heart but I also enjoyed the traditional breakfast food... Could not try it all but wow experience totally. Nespresso was more than welcome!

High tea - a perfect experience. Discovered sparkling tea, an alcohol free fizzy drink - yum. That was just a nice start. The usual High tea experience was lovely.

1 seul scone par personne... Vraiment? À +100$ par personnes avec pourboire & taxes? J'ai une dent sucré & même moi je trouves qu'il y avait trop de desserts, particulièrement au chocolat noir (3 à mon souvenir) & deux seuls des desserts étaient mémorables/excellents, venant dans leurs assiettes à part. Je recommenderais un peu moins de desserts & ajouter au MINIMUM un deuxième scone par personne. Les sandwich, les confitures & les thés étaient excellents.

L'ambiance avec la pianiste était très apprécié & le service était excellent.

Nous avons eu le plaisir de venir bruncher à la Place Dufferin au Château Frontenac avec un groupe d'amis, & nous avons passé un excellent moment. Le brunch était délicieux, avec des produits de grande qualité & un très beau choix de plats. Le service était impeccable du début à la fin. Un merci tout particulier à Christopher, notre serveur, qui a été très gentil, attentionné & professionnel. Il a contribué à rendre notre expérience encore plus agréable. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

We arrived early & had a 10:30am reservation. While we waited we watched several groups who had arrived after us, including some who had no reservations, get seated first. We finally were seated 20 minutes later than our reservation. Granted the food & view were great.
