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.
A gateway to Turkish & Kurdish cuisine in downtown Montreal. The menu offers a variety of delicious mezzes, kebabs, wrap sandwiches & other dishes. Also, the decoration in the restaurant is beautiful & welcoming.
Food was good. Service wasn't worth getting asked to leave a tip by the terminal.
Also had to argue about my friends working service animal, fully permitted & registered with provincial paperwork.
Was really hoping for a better experience.
Une véritable pépite au coeur de Montréal ! Dès qu'on franchit la porte, on est transporté : la décoration est sublime, chaleureuse & dépaysante, un vrai voyage en Turquie.
Les produits sont d'une qualité irréprochable, tout est frais, savoureux & parfaitement assaisonné. Le personnel est attentionné, souriant & passionné, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus agréable. Un sans faute du début à la fin.
À découvrir absolument pour les amateurs de cuisine authentique !
Every time I passed by, I saw her sitting by the window kneading dough. I had high expectations for the food, but it fell short. But the food feel healthy . So it was good
Cute little Turkish restaurant. Cozy vibes, nice service & tasty food. Great for a night out, not too noisy. The knefe is very good. Yakup was so sweet!
