Truffle fries - Edit
The food was pretty good, and the cafe itself was very cute. The mushroom risotto left more to be desired, but other items like the truffle fries were really great!

Best vegan Montreal - Edit
The kind hospitality, attentive staff, excellent variety of plant based/vegan options and drinks both mocktails/cocktails, and perfect sized portions won our family of 5 over. Gender neutral washrooms that have single stalls and communal hand washing station is welcoming. The decor and variety of seating options from high boy seating, bar seating, round tables, and whimsical hanging wicker chairs give the place major charm. It’s a must to stop here and eat anytime of the day!

I came here hoping for sushi but arrived in time for brunch (no sushi is available at this time). I ended up ordering the chicken and waffles which were amazing. I would come back to try their other options.

Spectacular! - Edit
We were lucky enough to find Lov on our second day visiting the city, and returned for brunch both Saturday and Sunday. Food is beautifully prepared and presented, and everything we tried was delicious. Brunch was so delicious in fact, that we both ordered the Benedict both times we went. Lol On Saturday they were out of breakfast potatoes so we subbed in fries.

Best Vegan food EVER - Edit
This place is an absolute cracker !!! The choice on the menu is extensive and varied and it all tastes so delicious. I'm working my way through the menu.. So far I haven't made it to desert ..maybe tonight ! Thr mushroom burger was to die for, I opted for salad with it. The soup DU jour was scrumptious. The lasagna last night was so tasty .. I'd highly recommend trying this place. Oh and the staff are so friendly
Read morePros: All vegan , So much choice , DELICIOUS
Cons: A little on the pricey side but so worth it , Small restaurant so gets busy , I dont live near here !!!!

If you want to share food that is beautiful, in a place that is really beautiful and well decorated : it’s for you.

Choix décevants - Edit
Bien que nous adorions le LOV auparavant, nos dernières visites nous ont déçus….
Read moreFish & Chips : 4 petits morceaux de tofu pané sans saveur sur un bol de frites pour 17$.
Burger de pleurotes: la moitié des pleurotes n’étaient pas cuites à l’intérieur de la panure. M’avait semblé meilleur au LOV du Dix30.
Dommage…
Pros: Que vegan!, Ambiance agréable
Cons: Cher, Peu d’options

Every location I have been to was gorgeous. The food is very good, tried a few different variety on the menu. Very friendly staff a little more on the expensive side because it is a chique franchise but they deserve their 5 star rating.

Room for improvement - Edit
Service is 5 stars, it's a beautiful restaurant with great staff who makes you feel very welcome. The food and the flavors could be a lot better. The fried Brussels sprouts in buffalo sauce had a really great flavor but were $14 for a very small portion, and the the other dishes like the coconut curry and signature cheeseburger were bland. It seems to be hit or miss depending on what you get. Matcha ice cream was good

Had a lovely meal and drinks here. The “calamari” was excellent, as were our entrees and drinks! Unfortunately they were quite busy so we did have to wait a while, but our server was quite attentive.

It’s ok. - Edit
We reserved a table for lunch. The beer & gin cocktail (the botanist) we’re tasty. The dumplings were our starter and were tasty. The sauce was kimchi & almond butter and could have been punchier. I ordered the tacos and they were just ok. Nothing special. My partner ordered the harvest bowl which was tasteless- the butternut squash had no flavour, their was very little quinoa. Think of this dish as a salad not a bowl.

Lovely Location - Edit
Ate here for my birthday brunch one year and LOVED the brunch bowl that I got as well as vegan croissant. Food and atmosphere was immaculate—but unfortunately (and this could be a one off) the service was terrible this day. We literally waited 1.5-2hrs for our meals with no updates (Im assuming someone forgot to put the order through bc it was not very busy) and we were not asked if we wanted refills on our drinks while we waited—which probably wouldn’t have been as big of a deal but we may or may not have been hungover 🤣. Only took away one star because things happen 🤷♀️ and I would like to think that this was a one off for an otherwise perfect spot 💜.

Pricey but improved - delicious, bigger portions - Edit
A lot of people I know, including myself before this, haven’t tried Lov in a few years but I was really pleasantly surprised last time I tried it. The portions seemed bigger, the flavors are spot on. That was even after ordering takeout so I feel like it would be that much better now in person. I’ll have to see for myself😄 It is definitely foodie approved since the menu is diverse yet without compromising execution. For example, I can order a good burger and fries, as well as some great sushi, or risotto. In other words, the menu is diverse and everything I’ve tried is very tasty.😄The ambiance and decor is obviously very cool and does add to the experience.
