Avesta offers a warm, cozy Turkish dining experience in downtown Montreal with fresh bread baked on site and a menu full of authentic flavors. The atmosphere is welcoming, and service is attentive and friendly. Dishes arrive in generous portions at good value, with mezze, kebabs, manti and other classics described as flavorful and comforting. The bread and dips are standout, the grilled meats tender, and ingredients feel fresh. Desserts like baklava and kunefe are praised for balance. The spot suits families, friends, and celebrations, and many leave eager to return for the same high quality and warm hospitality.
The food was great (authentic Turkish food). The staff very friendly. The service was amazing. The place is located in a central part of Montreal so withing walking distance from metro stations (I walked from Atwater). I would recommend this restaurant & I am looking forward to my next visit.
Super endroit pour ceux qui recherchent de la viande & du poulet grillés. J'y suis allé en famille , tout le monde a adoré la nourriture car était bien préparée & délicieuse.(kofte.. brochette de poulet .. filet mignon) La serveuse (Khadija)était très souriante & gentil elle nous a aidé à choisir des bon plats & elle nous a offert un thé gratuit. L'endroit est bien entretenu & organisé. Nous recommandons vivement à ceux qui souhaitent manger la cuisine turc
I Uber ordered. The food was way below expectations. All the reviews were raving about the Manti. It was really a very boring dish, just yogurt & dumplings. Nothing worth $28! I would not pay $10 for it. The rest of the food was also very average & overpriced for the value. Would not recommend.
Really enjoyed eating here last week, the waitress was super nice & made the experience 10 times better, I think her name was Rita. Food was very good & filling, you won't need to order twice. Would recommend 100%.
Une belle découverte sur St-Catherine. Petit restaurant artisanal agréable, à l'ambiance accueillante. Les assiettes sont généreuses, abordables & savoureuses. Le service pourrait être un peu plus souriant, mais l'atmosphère du lieu est suffisante pour passer un agréable moment. Je recommande a quiconque !

We were surprised to come across a Turkish Restaurant in Montreal, which we visited from New York. All the food was delicious. They sent us off very satisfied with their friendly customer service. A place we would definitely recommend. We will come back if we pass by here again. Thank you for everything.
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!
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 reputation

We just loved this restaurant - a little gem downtown near the forum. All the food was fresh, delicious & ever so flavourful. The waitstaff was attentive & friendly & very helpful with all recommendations. Highly recommend this spot.
Absolutely wonderful restaurant. The food is DELICIOUS. Extremely fresh & bursting with flavour. Highly recommend the lamb, eggplant mezze, & red pepper mezze! Service was excellent- our waitress was very kind & attentive & the food came VERY quickly! Great spot to have dinner before or after a movie as the forum is right down the street.
Came here in 2018 & in 2023 & its the same amazing quality. Highly recommend their fresh Manti it was full of flavor & a great portion. The ambiance & vibe is very nice for a dinner. Their Sarma & Koz Patlican is very delicious as apps & their Lahmacun also tastes amazing. Lots of flavors & options in their menu for a good price. I also recommend their Kunefe as well it is the best dessert! Overall its a great play to eat for a date, with friends, & with family with lots of options & flavor.
Très bel endroit à découvrir. Tout est parfait.. le service, le repas... le pain & ambiance avec musique Turc. Très rapide & pour nous c'était important qu'il soit Halal. Je recommande fortement.
I absolutely love Avesta’s homey atmosphere. It somehow ‘takes’ me to Turkey :) Their food is always fresh & super delicious. Lots of variety too. Their hummus mezze, bourek, lentil soup, etc or the gozleme, manti & other dishes are really good! I strongly recommend Avesta
L'endroit est très propre & hygiénique,sans parler de la nourriture qui vient avec des grandes portions & des goûts savoureux ,j'ai bien mangé c vraiment de la cuisine turc traditionnelle, le personnel est très gentil & souriant,Merci à Khadija la serveuse qui nous a aidé à choisir des bons plats, je recommande & je reviendrai sûrement
