Delivery can arrive before opening hours, and the atmosphere is often described as welcoming and family friendly, with events like music and activities for kids adding to the vibe. Many diners call Boustan the best in their area and praise clean spaces, reasonable prices, and reliable quality, though some notes of inconsistency appear. A few orders had small portions, especially for the Boustan Box, or sandwiches with not enough meat, and a handful of visits did not meet earlier highs. Staff are generally noted as helpful, especially with allergy questions, while a couple of reviews mention uneven attention to preferences. Overall, the sentiment skews positive, highlighting freshness and flavor, with a wish for more consistent portions and steadier quality to match the best experiences.View restaurant profile
Reviews of Real Fruit Bubble Tea highlight inconsistency at the Laval location, where the durian smoothie often tastes diluted and has too much ice, suggesting the recipe needs revision and the price feels high for not delivering the expected flavor. The Pointe Claire location is praised for getting it right, which makes the Laval experience feel more disappointing to regular visitors who wish all locations performed as well.View restaurant profile
