Turkish Kebab Sandwiches Salads

Review Summary

Restaurant Döner Istanbul is widely praised for fresh, flavorful Turkish fare, especially juicy, well-seasoned doner with generous portions that offer strong value; diners repeatedly note the meat is tender and the breads and salads are fresh, with many calling the place one of the best doner spots in Montreal or even Canada. The service is consistently described as quick, friendly, and professional, with attentive staff and a clean, welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to dine in or take out. While the overall experience is positive, a few reviews mention occasional issues such as order delays during peak times, uneven seasoning, or a rare dish that lacked flavor.View restaurant profile

Lebanese Mediterranean Middle Eastern Sandwiches Kebab Vegetarian

Vimont, Auteuil

Review Summary

Across reviews Amir is praised for fresh flavorful food with generous portions and consistently good quality, with service described as friendly and attentive, though dining in is often less appealing than takeout; some past reports of inconsistent service have given way to steady, reliable visits, and UberEats promotions such as two-for-one are frequently noted; many reviewers consider Amir the best in Laval and among the top spots in the province, while the interior is plain and mainly suited to takeout.View restaurant profile
