Overall, reviews of Al Amine describe a neighborhood gem in Montreal with generous portions, fresh ingredients and affordable prices, where shawarma, shish taouk, lahmajoun, manakish and pizzas are repeatedly praised for flavor and quality. The service is warm, attentive and efficient, with staff friendly and welcoming and orders often ready quickly and correctly even at busy times.

Le repas était vraiment délicieux, mais ce qui m'a le plus impressionnée, c'est le service après-vente. Ma réclamation a été traitée rapidement, en quelques minutes à peine. Un service client impeccable, professionnel & attentionné. Je recommande vivement !
One of the best spots hands down for a family meal or a healthy snack! Awesome family owned business with every delicious thing you could want! Call in advance if you want them to prepare epic stuff off the grill.
Hyperbon, les personnels souriants accueillants, service génial, nourriture très très bons, merci beaucoup je conseille tout le monde de l'essayer & je vous jure vous ne le regrettez.
My colleagues & I sampled a variety of dishes here, & the standout was undoubtedly their Kafta-seasoned ground meat expertly grilled over an open flame, delivering a smoky char that's hard to replicate. The star of the meal, though, was the sesame-studded baguettes, far superior to generic store-bought versions, with a crisp crust & nutty aroma. It paired perfectly with their pickles, which were tangy, crunchy, & brilliantly balanced the richness of the grilled meats.
Every time I am in the neighborhood I order Manakish. They are usually hot. For some reason they seem to dry out quickly, so make sure to keep in fridge or even freeze them once at home if you won't eat them in the next 48 hours. A minute in the toaster bring them back to their perfect taste. I recently tasted their fatayer (triangles with spinach), probably the best ones I tasted. They put a lot of lemon, which gives them a kick.
This is my go-to spot for good & reasonably priced shish taouk. You can choose from different salads & if you're sharing a meal, the mixed grill at around $25 is a great value. The portion & quality is consistent. Fast & friendly service.
