Achoura Deli has earned a reputation as a hidden gem, widely celebrated for offering some of the best halal smoked meat in the Montreal and Laval area. Customers frequently praise the high quality of the AAA Angus beef, which is expertly prepared on-site to achieve a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. The Reuben sandwich and smoked meat poutine are standout favorites, often highlighted for their exceptional flavor and generous portions. Beyond the food, the restaurant is consistently noted for its immaculate cleanliness, welcoming atmosphere, and, most importantly, the passionate and professional service provided by the owner and staff, who go out of their way to ensure every guest feels valued and well-cared for.
Incredible Halal Smoked meat! The best taste & quality in the area of Laval / Montreal / Monteregie. Worth the drive & highly recommend for anyone desiring quality smoked meat or halal food.
The quality of their smokemeat & ribeye steak are amazing. Their poutine smokemeat although is not traditional is a must try with their in-house gravy. I tried almost all their menu except the wings & everything is delicious.
The smokemeat is a Schwartz type, but better quality meat.
Came here very eager to try their alleged AAA Angus smoked meat, which, by definition, AAA Angus must be marbled meat. What I got was super lean, no marbling. I've been fooled by previous customer pictures (posted 3 years back) showing well-marbled smoked meat sandwich thinking I'll receive the same thing. Note that I did ask if they have medium fat i.e. I prefer a fatty cut not lean. I was told they don't have that option here. Now see the picture - it's too lean, barely any marbling. It's more expensive compared to other smoked meat deli's but it's no different than their lean version, has a'dry' texture to it due to the lack fat. Thankfully I didn't order the expensive plate/ assiette, $35 for just an average tasting super lean meat + bread, I'd be mad to pay this amount + tax + tips for unmarbled product & bread! I'd rather go elsewhere like Schwartz $29 large plate or Dunn's Laval $27.50 for a plate + coleslaw + fries or George's Laval cost-friendly plate is $24 with fries & coleslaw. These outlets didn't boast about AAA Angus, but the taste is much better.
If you like lean meat, maybe you'll like this spot. They also mentioned they have'à l'ancienne' for a fattier option. Decently marbled & cheaper? Go elsewhere (I'd suggest Dunns medium fat has a very marbled texture, Schwartz or George's which is $11 cheaper & you even get fries/ coleslaw).
If this restaurant wants to serve lean meat, they could've very well done it with cheaper briskets for the same flavour, texture & juiciness & make it more pocket friendly for customers. The process of brining & smoking & steaming the meat for long hours will anyway tenderize & keep the meat juicy. I didn't see any perceived goodness or quality from this restaurant's'AAA Angus'. Sorry not coming back
I used to love this place because it was the ONLY Halal smoke meat spot I knew in Montreal, so I didn't have much of a choice. At the initial stages, they were good, & their qtys were decent. Right now, you can't order them in pounds, & I was super disappointed to see their qty serving for a combo & then the large $34 large sandwich, which cost me $90 in total. It was not enough for two people & the meat was not great at all....Not worth it at all for the price & quality. I felt like I was robbed as I went back home & checked the qty. Not recommended. I guess this is my last visit & would opt out, looking for another place.
I visited Achoura Deli on Monday, February 16, 2026, with a friend who regularly drives all the way from Brossard just to enjoy their food - & now I understand why!
We both had the Reuben, which was absolutely delicious. The smoked meat paired perfectly with Thousand Island sauce, sauerkraut, & Swiss cheese, along with crispy fries & refreshing black cherry soda - everything was perfect. I also ordered a smoked meat plate & a large smoked meat poutine for my family, & the poutine was amazing. It had a kind of pepper sauce that I absolutely loved - one of the best poutines I've had so far!
I even had the chance to chat with the owner, who confirmed that their brisket is AAA Angus Halal from BC (if not mistaken). Compared to other spots, everything at Achoura is truly homemade from scratch - from the spicing, to smoking, to steaming - & it really shows in the flavor & quality.
The restaurant is also impressively clean, well-organized, & has lots of parking space, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The service is excellent: the staff are friendly, welcoming, & happy to make great recommendations. The atmosphere is simple, warm, & inviting, making it a place you want to return to.
Definitely a top spot in Laval for a quick meal without compromising on quality. I highly recommend them!
Walked in & immediately felt like I was meant to be here. Abdurahman is an absolute legend with hospitality. The food spoke for itself, the quality was impeccable! We ordered the Classic Smoked Meat Sandwich Combo (Number 1) & the Rueben Sandwich (Number 4). We also ordered the Smoked Meat Poutine to take home! The place was spotless & the ambience was nice & cozy. Highly recommend if you want real authentic HALAL Smoked Meat! Will definitely be coming back again to try the Steak & more smoked meat!!
I visited Ashoura Deli for the first time & ordered a smoked meat sandwich. I usually go to Montreal when I want this kind of sandwich, but a friend recommended this place-& it was a great recommendation.
The smoked meat was delicious, full of flavor, & very well prepared. What really made the experience special was the person who served me. He was incredibly kind & welcoming, invited me to see the smoked meat & how it's sliced, & even generously offered me a good portion to taste.
Amazing food, great quality, & outstanding service. I truly loved the experience & will definitely be back. Highly recommended!
