#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.
I would recommend trying this restaurant if you get a chance, my brother & I had a good meal here. The sambousek with sujuk & cheese are delicious. I had the mansaf, which was pricey but the portion size definitely makes up for it (about 1.5 portions worth of food for me, 2 if you're a lighter eater) & the dish tastes good too. It's also a unique dish that's hard to find outside a Jordanian household so definitely consider that too. The ambiance was nice & quiet with good decor which provided a good environment to enjoy your food. Service was slightly cold but still met the minimum acceptable level, overall not a huge issue but if you prioritize warm service this might be an issue. Overall, would say it was money well spent & is worth giving a try if you're in the area.
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 🌹
La cuisine est basique mais trop cher pour ce qui l'en es, je trouve que les prix par personne sont exorbitant, le service normal, la seule chose qui est parfaite c'est l'ambiance .
We had a great experience at Abu el Zulof! The atmosphere was lovely & the food was excellent. We tried the lentil soup, fatoush, shish tawook, & chicken bil saniye - all of them were delicious & full of flavor. The only dish that didn't impress us was the mutabbal crispy eggplant (#7).
Overall, a wonderful meal & we would happily come back again!

I had chosen this place months ago, really excited to celebrate my wedding anniversary & birthday with my husband. I was looking forward to a fun night, live music, & dancing. The food itself was tasty, but honestly very overpriced. On top of that, we were charged $20 each for the band, but they only played from 10 pm until 12:30 am. After they stopped, there was no music at all-not even background music-which instantly killed the atmosphere & made it feel like the night was over. For a place that looks so lively & glamorous on social media, the reality was a big disappointment. For such a special occasion, I expected so much more than just good food.
Not my first time & not will be the last ofc.. The ambiance was absolutely perfect ; cozy, elegant, & so inviting. & a special thank you to Oula for the exceptional service - attentive, kind, & made the whole evening even more enjoyable. Can't wait to come back! 🌟🍽?
Petit resto bien sympa/repas excellent . Le service au début était parfait les plats étaient rapidement arrivés après avoir commandé. Par contre, dès qu'on avait terminé de manger, on a dû demander à deux différents serveurs pour le menu afin de choisir le dessert, & cela a pris beaucoup de temps.
Mise à jour : Mon copain & moi sommes retournés à ce resto. & le service était nettement mieux. Plus rapide & efficace. On a recommandé le Mansaf 😅
