Bought for takeout. The place inside looked very nice. Generous portion for my shawarma plate. No harissa (spicy) sauce & the shawarma is a little bland & dry compared to boustan or basha, but it's nearby & decent so I'll probably come back. But with so much competition these days maybe you can improve.

Merci Au Personel du Restaurant Amir au 5230 rue Jean-Talon Est

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellente expérience culinaire !

J'ai récemment visité le Restaurant Amir sur Jean-Talon Est, & je dois dire que c'était une expérience exceptionnelle ! La nourriture est délicieuse, fraîche & bien assaisonnée. Le shawarma est juteux, les falafels sont croustillants & les salades sont toujours fraîches.

Le service est rapide & courtois, & le personnel est très accueillant. Le restaurant est propre & bien entretenu, ce qui ajoute au plaisir du repas.

Que ce soit pour un repas sur place ou à emporter, je recommande vivement Amir pour tous les amateurs de cuisine libanaise authentique. J'y retournerai sans hésiter !

The menu used to be better at this location, now the selection has been reduced immensely. We had the beef shawarma & it was DRY!! Very disappointed

This location is special & unique from the other Amir restaurants. You have to see it for yourself. I'm from Toronto & I was happy with finding this location. It doesn't have the franchise feeling to this place. It is authentic & has an Arab feel to it. Nice tables & chairs & friendly staff The food was amazing, well cooked & presented. We then got desserts from the cafe that's in there & all together it was a perfect experience. I highly recommend this location for your shawarma cravings or if you have a sweet tooth check out the cafe. Definitely visiting again when I return from Toronto!
