African Grill Soups Salads

Review Summary

Grillade Finty-Laliya receives praise for delicious, well cooked meat and flavorful dishes that are generously portioned and well presented, with a warm welcome and attentive, speedy service that makes it ideal for time spent with family or friends. Regulars travel from Montreal every two weeks just to eat there, underscoring the strong appeal. The menu features delicious grilled chicken with toppings not typically expected in American cuisine, and while the deep fried dough balls are warm and pleasant, they come across as doughy rather than sweet. The ambiance is pleasant and family-friendly. One notable drawback is that the space can feel freezing cold in February, so wearing warm clothing or sitting near the ovens is advised.View restaurant profile

Vieux Longueuil, Longueuil

Grill African

Review Summary

Reviews of Mam'jara praise the meat dishes, with the dibi grilled meat singled out as a standout and the option to try a veggie combo next time to taste more vegetables. The place is described as a small, relaxed spot with seating and excellent food, not a fancy restaurant, but the interior can feel cold and the setting is somewhat tight for onsite tasting. Family dining is a common theme, and service is reported as impeccable and the place clean, although some reviewers feel that besides the lamb dibi the rest of the menu is not as strong. Overall, Mam'jara is seen as a solid choice for meat lovers and for families in Longueuil, even if the ambiance and menu variety may not suit every occasion.View restaurant profile
