#Abu_ElZulof is a fine dining & the best brunch restaurant in Montreal, our mission is to WOW people everyday and bring back forgotten traditional flavors and vibes ??
Abu el Zulof recoit des eloges pour des saveurs delicieuses et fraiches ainsi que pour des portions genereuses, et de nombreux avis soulignent l'authenticite des plats moyen-orientaux, un service chaleureux et une ambiance accueillante, parfois avec de la musique live et une danseuse orientale. L'experience est presentee comme ideale pour partager des mezzes et des repas en famille, avec certains clients estimant que le rapport qualite-prix est satisfaisant, tandis que d'autres trouvent les prix eleves compte tenu des portions. Le service varie entre attention et chaleur et lenteur et incoherence, et quelques visiteurs mentionnent des attentes longues pour les entrees ou les desserts, surtout en periode d'affluence. Certains plats phares comme le fattoush, le tabouleh, le mansaf, les kebabs, le kibbeh nayeh et le muhammara sont cites comme excellents, tandis que quelques portions peuvent etre seches, huileuses ou peu savoureuses, ce qui donne des impressions contrastes. Dans l'ensemble, Abu el Zulof est percu comme une option solide pour une cuisine arabe authentique a Montreal, avec une ambiance memorables et des saveurs satisfaisantes, mais il faut etre conscient des fluctuations de service et de rapport qualite-prix.
Stylish Levanti vibes, cozy environment, excellent service, generous proportion. Price with this size of proportion could be fair. Finally I am able to try Booza, really with great subtle scent while mixed with rich flavor of everything, including Halva. Lentils soup is enough for 2 people, yellow lentils, but not that creamy( compared to the Turkish yellow one). Shish Tawk is dry & lean like what I prefer. Fatoush salad is light in salt while rich in sour taste with mélasee I guess. Service is friendly & efficient, they are really nice & sweet, we shared interest chats. Friday evening there will be concert but it needs reservations in advance & extra payments for enjoying the music, Saturday night there will be belly dancer around.

Whether you're going for a dinner with friends, a celebration, or a night out with great vibes, Abu El Zulof is the perfect choice. Highly recommended we will definitely be back!
I had an amazing experience here. The food came out fresh, well-seasoned, & way better than I expected for the area - you can tell the kitchen actually cares about what they're serving. But the real standout was our waiter, Ola.
Ola was on point the entire time - attentive without hovering, quick with refills, & actually knew the menu well enough to give real recommendations instead of just pointing at random items. Super friendly, patient, & kept the whole vibe smooth from start to finish.
If you're coming here, ask for Ola. It literally makes the whole experience twice as good.
Great food, even better service. We were here for the first time & Ali was very helpful with the menu & the recommendations, spot on. The meat platter is a must. Ward was also serving us & she was very timely with he food & patient with a big group. Place is highly recommend, great vibe, nice decor, comfy seats, spacious, welcoming, generous & most importantly authentically tasteful.
The place was absolutely wonderful so amazing & charming I'm so happy I found a spot in Montreal that still carries Arabic vibes within the French community. The service was also outstanding. Special thanks to Abbas Jammal for his kindness & humility his great customer service at the shisha place made the experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back the next time 🌹

I recently visited this wonderful Syrian restaurant in downtown Montreal, & I have to say, it was an exceptional experience. I ordered the Mansaf, & it was simply amazing - the flavors were rich, & the lamb was incredibly tender. It was a perfect representation of authentic Syrian cuisine. What made the experience even more enjoyable was the vibe of the restaurant. They were playing Fairuz in the background, which added a beautiful & calming atmosphere to the meal. The design of the restaurant was also impressive, with cultural hints
Came here for dinner Friday night & was pleasantly surprised about how amazing the food was. Authentic food, warm & welcoming service from our waitress Sana, & amazing vibes overall. The show was great, we got to dance & mingle with other guests. Will come back for sure! Thank you for the great experience.
Thanks to Rama & Kevin & their great service. They made me feel home with their good vibe & kindness. The food is amazing & the hookah is even better. Highly recommended.
