This place was a highlight of our trip to Montreal. Everything here is beautiful - food is presented so nicely, & the restaurant itself is incredibly decorated. It was our last night in Montreal & we were looking for something where we could dress casually but get good, fresh food & a nice atmosphere. It was perfect. We had the hummus, moutabbal, muhammara (all veg), & the kibbeh sajia (beef). Service was warm & inviting. A mix of families & couples dining here. Dishes are large, for sharing. Would definitely recommend!
We visited for dinner on a Tuesday night. The Fattoush was absolutely delicious & a must-try. The Muhammara had good flavor, though the texture was thicker than usual. The Batata Harra was served as seasoned fries instead of the traditional cubes, which was a pleasant surprise. We were excited to try the Mansaf, but it didn't quite meet our expectations. However, the staff kindly offered to replace it with another dish. Overall, the experience was positive, & the atmosphere was nice, though the prices are on the higher side for Middle Eastern cuisine.
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
AMAZING!! After trying almost all of the kibbeh nayyeh in Mtl & Laval this is the best I've had. The waiter Elias was super professional & the owner made us feel at home. If you want authentic & top tier middle eastern food & drinks come here. 10/10 would recommend
Un endroit qui vous transporte hors de Montréal depuis que vous êtes entré, & ce que j'ai goûté était incroyable, super service à la clientèle & ils nous ont servi très rapidement.
This place has absolutely delicious food! Authentic Syrian (Al Sham) arabic classics. The portions are very generous which makes it worth the price! The entry is a bit confusing as it's on the lower level of the outdoor sign. Very polite & friendly staff. We got the Fettoush, hummus, falafel, shawarma abo al abd & the Ouzi. Everything was on point except the ouzi which was basic compared to everything. 100% worth going if you like Arabic food or want to try it.
