Food quality is average, Muhammara didn't taste fresh, also lamb kebab smells alot! Friday night it was live music which I enjoyed it!View more

La bouffe est bonne. Ambiance sympathique un peu quétaine. Le show live était nice. Le service est très amateur. Les coupes ont plusieurs couches de calcaire jamais essuyé sous leur pied. La carte des vins ce sont des vins d'épicerie. Bon pour dîner je dirais.View more

Excellente nourriture. Mezzes incroyables. Le repas pour 4, portion généreuse. Atmosphère, on se croirait à Istanbul!View more

Le poulet est exquis, & quant au künefe, il s'agit d'un plaisir gustatif inégalé. Si vous êtes 4 ou 5 prenez le combo à 95$.View more

If you're looking for an authentic turkish experience, Avesta is the best in Montreal. They even started live music on certain days & they're adding vegetarian menu options. The owner & staff are so kind & welcoming! We ordered Saj Kavurma & Adana kebab as well as gozleme ... 5 stars for sure!View more

This Turkish restaurant exceeded my expectations! The service was impeccable, the atmosphere authentically decorated, & the food, especially the Tavuk Kebab, Iskender, & Sarma appetizer, was simply delicious. Highly recommended for a delightful culinary experience!View more

One of the better restaurants I've seen in Canada. Traditional music & food like home. & very good atmosphere.View more

We got the Tavuk kebab with the rice & beyti kebab. The beyti kebab was very good. A solid 4.5/5. The tavuk kebab were decent too, but could have been better, 3.5/5. The thing that let us down was the service & the ambiance. Needs massive improvement on the front. The kunafa at the end was a 3/5 too. Not too bad not too good. One more thing that needs to be added is potatoes (fries) to the menu.View more

Très bel endroit, chaleureux, superbes nappes, objets décoratifs rappelant la Turquie. Service courtois. Mezzes: très bonnes feuilles de vignes avec yogourt savoureux, humus ok, mouhamara ordinaire. Kebab-viandes bien marinés, gouteux & pain délicieux toutefois, accompagnements (salade de chou rouge au persil, riz & légumes) fades & sans aucun arôme, décevant pour ce type de cuisine si parfumée habituellement. Le pire étant le riz vraiment raté. Lahmacun ok sans plus, encore ici, manque de goût. Un endroit tout de même unique à Montreal qui gagnerait à s'élever mais qui vaut le détour pour son caractère unique. Une dame façonne des mantis (pâtes farcies) à la main à l'avant du restaurant. On reviendra pour les sandwichs qui semblent très populaires.View more

First time & it was wonderful. I had the spinach & feta grilled sandwich made in front of establishment with salad. Portions were huge & brought half of meal home. The Turkish tea provided for free was delicious. Loved the whole experience & employees are lovely. Noted that other clients were also asking for take out containers since portions are substantial. Can't wait to return. Thank you,View more

They have delicious Turkish food in downtown. Specially their Lambs. Only negative impression is that sometimes their Revani is 3-4 days old & dry. I would recommend not to sell it when it is old. It damages your reputationView more
