Antabli gets mixed but largely positive feedback for a cozy, lively vibe and a big menu featuring crepes, ice cream, juices, fruit cocktails, waffles, and Lebanese inspired desserts like ashta. Guests praise generous portions and the variety of desserts and drinks, with many saying the quality is excellent and great value, though some note prices can be high and the coffee or some drinks may be bland or not up to par. The newly moved location is cited by many as improving the space with a larger dining area and better atmosphere, while others mention slow or disorganized service from time to time. Cleanliness is described as generally good but not always consistent, and a few reviews mention uneven attention to cleanliness or to general ambiance. The staff is frequently described as friendly, attentive, and helpful with families and groups, though a minority report rude or slow service or language barriers. The desserts are repeatedly highlighted as standout, including ice cream, crepes, and a range of fruit based options, with ashta and fresh fruit noted as especially appealing. Several reviews recommend visiting for a fun family outing, a date, or a casual get together, and many express a desire to return, often noting that the place is a go to dessert spot in Montreal. Overall the impression is that Antabli delivers exciting Lebanese inspired sweets and solid drinks in a welcoming setting, with room for improvement in consistency of service and beverage execution.
I haven't been here since I was a kid but I came by today & it was exactly as I remembered. The taste of our ice cream down to the colourful signature Antabli table. Even after all these years, the prices are still very reasonable for the portion & the quality you get despite inflation. I highly recommend the Playa Coco!
Nothing special. Crowded. If you pay & say takeout then change your mind & sit inside, they'll kick you out & tell you to sit outside. Ordered the Nutella strawberry banana crepe with a tea. The crepe itself was thin & hard , the amount of Nutella was laughable. The thinnest amount that you can imagine was spread on it & only the top half of the crepe had fruits, the middle was empty. Looks like they're trying to be stingy on the fillings while charging 15$ for a crepe. Neither food nor service warrants another visit.
Just scrolled thru to see other reviews & these passive agressive responses to customer dissatisfaction is wild! I look forward to receiving an equally unpleasant & uncouth response. Would honestly recommend going someplace else where your food isn't served with a side of disrespect.
Edit to add:
Whilst your reply certainly explains why you kick out customers, it does not explain why you do it with such rudeness or why you fail to provide this explanation at the time of ejection.
Furthermore,
your reply does not address additionnel concerns customers have had with your establishment's refusal to provide an extra takeout container for customers on their way home EVEN if they have expressed their desire to purchase this container.
Second edit:
I take my reviews seriously. You cannot flat out lie in my face & tell me you provide an extra takeout container upon request when you have refused me in person

Je ne recommande pas.
Pendant des années je commandais souvent le grand plateau familial Nuits du Liban. C'était excellent.
Par contre, les derniers mois, à chaque fois il y avait de moins en moins de ashta & de noix, jusqu'au plateau commandé hier: presque pas de ashta, on voit le fond du plateau en plastique à travers. Très décevant, ce n'est qu'un plateau de fruits à présent. Je ne commanderais plus, pour le prix que ça coûte.
It's always great to go to Antabli for a delicious coconut ice cream, fresh fruit, or even a crepe! The gentleman at the counter was very nice, & the music was actually really good too! I highly recommend it if you want to have a good time with family, a new date, or friends
If you are looking for the same Antabli desserts as the ones you had in Lebanon, this Montreal branch is the right place! It is conveniently located with plenty of parking space, outdoor seating & neat indoor space. Desserts are delicious, fruit cocktails are highly recommended!
Super resto, c'est très propre, les desserts sont très bon & l'accueil est vraiment bonne. On se croirait au Liban, l'ambiance est chaleureuse & authentique. Je recommande!

One of the staff member mehak she recommended me this place. Now onwards this is my favourite place i tried different varieties such as waffles, crepe & shakes. It was super tasty. I highly recommend to everyone if you're living in Montreal just give a try to this place. Especially thanks to Mehak that you suggested me.
