Reviews describe Adana Kebab as offering a wood fired aroma and juicy, well seasoned Adana kebab that comes across in generous sandwiches with bold yet balanced flavor, though a few note the bread could be toasted a little more. The setting is clean, simple and decorated with traditional Turkish touches, with the interior feeling brand new, while the location on Jarry Street is tucked among car repair shops and parking can be scarce. Service is repeatedly praised as friendly, efficient and attentive, with staff often described as kind and welcoming to families. The food quality shines through a range of dishes including shish kebab, lamb and chicken skewers, and lahmacun, with many saying the meat is marinated well and cooked to perfection on the wood stove. Some reviewers mention price being slightly above average for sandwiches, but many feel the portions and quality justify it. A few reviews mention packaging issues or bread that was a touch stale in rare cases, but these are outweighed by the overall positive impressions. The overall sense is that Adana Kebab is a standout Turkish option in Montreal, repeatedly recommended and noted for fresh ingredients and generous portions, even if the setting is modest and getting there can be tricky for non locals.View restaurant profile

Pho Ngon is widely regarded as a top spot for pho in Montreal, with reviews praising a rich, flavorful broth, generous portions and good value, and dishes such as beef pho, grilled meat over rice, spring rolls and fresh herbs that feel authentic. Service is described as fast and efficient, though experiences vary with some customers noting rude or uneven service at times. The restaurant is cash only, with an on site ATM, and parking is available but can be tight during busy hours. A recurring note from diners is that post pandemic some aspects have changed, with some describing the broth as less deep or the portions smaller, while others still consider it among the best in the city. One critique mentions a strong cleaning product odor near the tables at lunch, which can overpower the flavors. Despite mixed points, many see Pho Ngon as a reliable, comforting choice that delivers solid flavors and quick service for takeout or dine in.View restaurant profile
