    There's usually a wait, like any other spot for Sunday brunch, come in time. Quick service and friendly staff. Federal eggs was great, good portion. Alcoholic brunch drinks only starts at 11am :(

    Cozy atmosphere great for a Friday night date or wine with friends. We had a grilled cheese that was delicious. 🍷 🥪 👏🏻

    Craving a carnivorous sandwich you'll still be thinking about days later? The Cubano ($12) is the stuff of dreams with creamy avocado, roast pork and ham. Our full review of The Federal is here: Read more

    Atmosphere was very nice and had a new-age vibe for being in Little Portugal. Cubano was quite salty. Hot cider tasted like PC brand and was luke warm. Spiced cider would have been amazing for winter

    Came back for the cubano and cob salad and we weren't disappointed. The cubano is an improved version of the classic, although not pressed is exploding with flavor. Looking forward to dinner.

    Comfort food done well. Americans, expect Canadian portion sizes, i.e. A normal human can actually finish a sandwich

    He had the Cubano sandwich, I had the steak and eggs. Both really good. However, service was a little slow, but friendly.

    Brunch and dinner are great. Service is friendly. Place is small, do no guarantee there will be space.

    Perfect scrambled eggs! Rosti was nice and crispy today. Fancy ketchup. Curry chicken sandwich was awesome. Dinner can't come soon enough.

    Food is delicious but service is slow and bedraggled. On a moderately paced Wednesday morning over 45 minutes before food came out...
