Review Summary

Aya draws praise for an elegant Lebanese dining experience with a beautiful space, warm atmosphere, and consistently delicious food and wine. Reviewers highlight generous appetizers such as grilled octopus, hummus, fattoush, and arnabeet, beautifully presented and full of flavor, with a standout wine program guided by a thoughtful sommelier that includes Lebanese labels like Chateau Barka and La Tourba. Service is described as attentive and knowledgeable, though some nights suffer from staff shortages or slower pacing with larger groups. The venue is noted as being stylish yet versatile for celebrations, business dinners, or romantic evenings, and the overall vibe ranges from lively to intimate. Pricing is frequently described as high, with some calling it overpriced for what is offered, yet many feel the quality and hospitality justify the cost. Occasional downsides include inconsistent dish timing and a quiet or crowded atmosphere depending on the night, but the consensus remains that Aya is a top Lebanese option with memorable food, service, and ambiance.

Aya Lebanese Restaurant is an absolute gem in Montreal, especially for those seeking incredible vegetarian options. From the moment we walked in, we felt warmly welcomed by the ambiance & the staff, but what truly made our experience exceptional was the personal touch provided by the owner, Maurice. The vegetarian entrée options at Aya are simply amazing. Each dish is crafted with care, bursting with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Lebanon. We started with a variety of appetizers, & every bite was a delightful surprise of rich & fresh ingredients. Maurice went above & beyond to make our visit memorable. He personally ensured that our main courses were tailored to our preferences, creating the most delicious falafel I've ever tasted & a wonderfully flavorful okra rice dish. It was clear that he takes immense pride in his restaurant, & his passion for serving high-quality, authentic Lebanese food shone through in every detail. The combination of outstanding food, warm hospitality, & a cozy atmosphere makes Aya Lebanese Restaurant a must-visit. Whether you're a vegetarian or just love good food, I can't recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be returning to experience more of Maurice's culinary magic!
