    The Monaco. (Lager, red grenadine, lemon soda)

    Finally made it up here for brunch with my daughter. There was a wait for indoor seating, but there were two seats available at the high top counter, so we sat there. I was impressed by the way they have made it feel like an authentic French cafe in decor, seating, and tables. My daughter had avocado toast, I had Le Pepper Boy breakfast sandwich, and we shared an order of plantains. I ordered a flat white as well as a "Monaco" (lager, grenadine, and lemon soda), which was...interesting. Serviced was great and the food was excellent. I absolutely cannot wait to come back and try dinner here!

    We came for brunch after a nice long run at the Charles River. The host was amazing and instantly seated us outside. We had ordered the Madame croquette and also the beef bourguignon sandwich. We also ordered the pistachio cold brew latte and the oversea. Both drinks were really watered down and I was really disappointed because it was watery and flavorless, but I guess I did get my caffeine in the real stars were the entrées. The food portions were huge. It came out relatively quick. We didn't have to wait long my Madame croquette came with a side salad that was likely dressed in some vinaigrette, and it was very refreshing. The meal was delicious. The sandwich was stuffed with a lot of meat. I'm not sure that it was steak it kind of tasted like a chuck roast but still very good, my only critique would be if it could be a little bit more flavorful because it didn't taste like it was braised at all, but we subbed for Parmesan truffle fries, and those were delectable. So far so good would definitely come back for brunch. Maybe I'll just get an Americano next time or stick with water.

    Pretty establishment, noise is moderate and food is fresh and tasty. Small portions for entrees. The Pear chocolate crumble Dessert was ok, not special.

    This place is so French, so cute. Most of the staff speak French. The whole aesthetic of the interior is French. The brunch food is excellent! I've never tried their lunch or dinner menu. The brunch menu is so perfectly tailored to my tastes...Croque Madame, Duck Eggs Benedict, and everything comes with a beautiful sharply dressed salad to counter and complement the richness of the dishes. The coffee and tea selections, including specialty coffee drinks, cocktails, and mocktails. We tried the London fog tea (so good!), lavender latte (so good!) and blueberry limeade (delicious!) The service is efficient and friendly. We were a table of 5 in the middle of the tiny restaurant and felt like we were rocks stars. They took very good care of us...making sure we had coffee refills, water refills. Very attentive. Everyone with us loved the food. I usually get the croque madame, but this time I tried the Parisian Omelette which has goat cheese and mushrooms. It was perfectly cooked, with the perfect amount of goat cheese and sautéed mushrooms. I loved it. I have one bit of feedback...the bathrooms could be cleaner, and need some freshening up...paint, new tile. The worn out bathrooms don't match the decor, or the quality of the food and service. Despite this, I will definitely be back.

    Best banana toast you'll have in Boston!

    I brought my cousin here on her last visit, and neither of us could forget the experience--so she came back with the whole family, and now they're all obsessed with Café Sauvage. From the moment you walk in to the goodbye, the hospitality is unmatched--genuine smiles and a team that clearly loves what they do. The food is just as memorable: the beef bourguignon is to die for, and the banana toast and Gruyère omelette are hands down some of the best I've had in Boston. Their signature lattes are a must--tried the Ferrero and had to stop myself from ordering another. Even on a packed visit with a large walk-in party (not recommended), they were incredibly accommodating, and the service and food were just as impeccable. Truly a standout spot.

    Fried Calamari Spicy Green Beans Burrata
    Mary Ann V.

    Cute little French cafe From the get-go, we shared it was a for a wedding, and the waiter gave us a free champagne Ordered several appetizers for the table which included burrata, calamari, spicy green beans, and a charcuterie. Thoroughly enjoyed the calamari. And the spicy green beans were delicious- just thought I would see it in a Chinese restaurant. Nonetheless- delicious! I got the mushroom risotto and my bf got the salmon plate. While I liked the risotto, I felt it was lacking something as a main entree. I would have preferred the salmon For dessert , I got the crème brûlée and that was ok. It was more spongy than flan/smooth/creamy. Overall great place!

    Didn't make reservations for a Sunday dinner but they were busy as the restaurant is relatively small but we got seated at the bar which no one sat and got taken care of right away. Menu is straight forward and honestly wish they had more French cuisine offerings, but I was told the cheeseburger with bacon $23 is the go to as it also comes with truffle fries. It was delicious and very cheesy. Nice customer service too.

    Sauvage Café is undeniably aesthetically adorable. It's small--very small--but somehow manages to feel thoughtfully designed. No matter where you sit, you're next to something that feels curated and intentional. I ended up at a center-corner spot beside some lush plants with a view of the outdoor decorations. Even though the space is tight, it doesn't feel disjointed. But the tightness is real. The tables are so close that simply getting up or adjusting my jacket had me accidentally knocking things around. One slightly wrong move and something on the table shifts--so just be prepared for that cozy, very compact layout. There were two people working the front, and the man who waited on me was extremely attentive, which I appreciated. I started with a mocktail called "Self-Care." Ironically... it tasted like water. Pretty presentation, but no real flavor to speak of. For food, I ordered the salmon and a meatless charcuterie board. I love that they offer a smaller charcuterie option--it was perfect. I enjoyed all the cheeses, the olives, the bread, and the jam. That part was solid. The salmon, though, was disappointing. Crispy on the outside but unexpectedly cold on the inside, which made the whole dish feel off. It came with a broccoli-and-mushroom mix that was fine, but as someone who's primarily pescatarian, seafood is my main event when dining out--so having the salmon miss the mark really affected the meal. I closed with a coffee and had asked ahead of time about cream and sugar. What I didn't realize was that they only offer raw brown sugar and Splenda--no white sugar. Had I known that, I wouldn't have ordered it. The coffee was wildly strong, and even multiple Splendas couldn't sweeten it to a drinkable level for me. I ended up wasting most of it. Overall, Sauvage Café is a cute, thoughtfully styled space with attentive service and some bright spots on the menu, but the inconsistencies definitely showed during my visit. I'd consider going back to try one or two other dishes, but I'm not in a rush.

    We came here on a Sunday morning for brunch with a group of seven people. They opened at 9 o'clock and we got there around 8:45 and there was already other people waiting for a table. They do not take reservations for brunch so you must get there early. The place filled up very quickly. Service was quick. Everyone had some type of coffee and a breakfast entrée. The servings were large the side salad that came with my breakfast sandwich was outstanding and probably the best thing that I eat. My breakfast sandwich was expensive, but there was a lot of egg on it. I had a Madeline on the side, which was a lot for three dollars, but it was very tasty.

    Came for brunch on a Friday and it was busy. We did not have reservations and had a short wait. My friend and I both got seasonal non-alcoholic beverages which were delicious. We shared 2 brunch dishes which were tasty and filling. The food came out quicker than expected despite the crowd. Prices are on par with Boston dining but I felt like I got my money's worth. Tables are a bit close together inside but definitely better than sitting outside which seemed noisy from Mass Ave traffic.

    French onion soup
    Miranda G.

    Checked out this restaurant around Sunday brunch time without a reservation and the we were told the wait time was about 30 minutes, which was accurate. We got the Duck and Egg Benedict, French Onion Soup, and Filet-o-fish Sandwich. I really enjoyed the Duck and Egg Benedict. It was a lot of duck meat but the sauces and eggs helped the dish from not being too dry. The French Onion Soup had a layer of gruyere on top and said it also had bone marrow, but that was a bit hard to taste. The only issue is that the restaurant is very small and they do pack a lot of people in there so with the small tables and large winter coats, be prepared to get cozy with one another!

    Last fall, my friend and I went here for brunch. There was a bit of wait if you wanted to sit indoors so we opted to sit at an outdoor table on the street. I ordered the duck benedict and black sesame latte. The duck benedict came with shredded duck meat, hash browns, and with 2 poached eggs over arugula. It was savory but a bit tangy. The black sesame latte with whipped cream was good.

    Sauvage Mama Breakfast, Matcha (hot), and Saumon Fumé
    Chu H.

    It gets busy, so plan accordingly. It has options of dining inside or outside. The atmosphere is lively and vibrant. The staff are all very nice and friendly. Ordered from the brunch menu: sauvage mama breakfast, matcha (hot), and saumon fumé. Really delicious and nicely portioned. I definitely would come back again and recommend this for brunch!

There's a small park with shaded benches about 2 blocks away (Elliot Norton Park) which is a great place to sit down and devour the food. I ordered the Mission Breakfast Burrito and it was delicious. As of August 2026, the website lists the burrito as $14, but the price on the in-person menu was $16. I would give the burrito 4 out of 5 stars because of the way it was wrapped - about a third of the burrito was just egg and cheese and the toppings (avocado, red onion, hash browns, salsa verde, crema) were crammed on the other side of the burrito. If there was a way for the burrito to be wrapped so all the ingredients were more evenly distributed - this would easily be a 5/5 breakfast burrito. One random detail that stuck out to me was that their drinks in their refrigerator were very cold - no lukewarm sodas here! I would come back here to try their signature "Fancy" sandwich. Overall, this is a very solid breakfast spot in Boston!

    I got 99 problems, but brunch ain't one …read more.... I had just finished a long-awaited day in family court, and my best friend Robin came with me for support. Afterward, she treated me to brunch at North Street Grille, and honestly, it was exactly what I needed. When we arrived, there was a line and we were told the wait could be around 45 minutes. Don't let that scare you off. We put our name down, walked around the neighborhood, took some cute pictures of each other and passed the time until Robin received a text letting us know our table was coming up. I'd say we actually waited closer to 20-30 minutes max. As someone who deals with anxiety, I'll admit that when I first saw how busy it was, I was a little nervous about going inside. But once we got settled, that feeling went away. The atmosphere was welcoming, lively and easygoing. There was plenty of conversation and background noise, but funny enough, that was exactly the kind of noise I needed that day. I didn't feel like all eyes were on me. I could just sit down, decompress, enjoy my food and enjoy being with my best friend. And once you're inside, I can completely understand the wait. It's a smaller spot, people are eating, drinking, talking and genuinely enjoying themselves. It doesn't feel like somewhere you want to rush out of and with the food being as good as it was, I understand the line too. Now let's get to the food. That complimentary banana bread? Don't sleep on it. I really enjoyed it. We also had mimosas, which were good and definitely fit the occasion. I ordered the Steak Bomb Omelet with steak, peppers and cheese, along with home fries and toast. Robin had the salmon omelet, and of course I had to taste hers too--it was good! Our waiter was attentive and really nice throughout the meal, which made the experience even better. And speaking of Robin what are the chances I'm sitting there with my best friend Robin, open the menu and see a Robin Special? Shoutout to all the Robins! There were so many other things on the menu that caught my eye that I already know one visit isn't enough. And apparently the restaurant knew when it was time for me to go, because right on cue, I dropped my mimosa glass. I was immediately embarrassed, but shoutout to our waiter because he didn't make a big deal out of it or make me feel uncomfortable. And remember all that background noise I mentioned? For once, I was grateful for it because hardly anybody even noticed. Between coming straight from family court, having my best friend there, the food, the atmosphere and even my little mimosa-glass finale, this brunch ended up being exactly what I needed. Would I come back? Definitely. Next time I'm trying something completely different from the menu,with them delicious-ass banana bread bites.

I thought it was a bit odd that they were taking reservations but did it anyway in case it was crazy. I'm very glad I did because even with a reservation before 9am some people were waiting outside for a table! We got seated right away with our reservation which I was very happy to have made. The place is very cool inside with interesting decor to look at. One of the reason I picked this restaurant is that they have gluten free options. It was great to be able to have a regular breakfast like anyone else. I had pancakes with potatoes, eggs and sausage. The sausage was pretty nice.

There is something for everyone here whether you have food allergies, are a picky eater, or down for an adventure to try something new. Everything is pretty customizable so you really can't go wrong. For those with food allergies, they have plenty of vegan and gluten free options. Some of my favorite staples are the avocado toast, the vegan scramble, the vegan breakfast burrito, or the vegan pancakes (they are gluten free too)! I like to try to make a reservation online in advance because it gets busy. You have to make the reservation on the day of so the availability can be limited depending on what might be going on but it is still worthwhile. You can also join the waitlist online if you can't make a reservation in advance which might help save a little time too. If you don't want to dine in, you can always order online for pick-up or delivery from their website as well. Staff has always been kind and helpful, especially when it comes to recommendations for what to try if you want to branch out or just get inspired. The Friendly Toast is a unique place to go. If you are inside, it feels like a diner and is pretty laidback. They have their own sense of style which adds to their character and charm. When the weather is nice, I like the outdoor seating they have.
