Welcome to Baba Hamdi, the best Egyptian restaurant located in Châteauguay. Operated by none other than Chef Hamdi (with over 40 years of experience and former owner of La Villa Bella and Coin méchoui), the restaurant offers a tantalizing menu featuring colorful and flavorful dishes. Mixed grills, shish taouks, shawarmas, authentic Egyptian dishes such as moussaka and shakshuka, chicken, salads... everything is mouth-watering.
Overall, Baba Hamdi delivers an authentic Egyptian dining experience with warm hospitality and a cozy, inviting interior. The menu features favorites such as hummus with warm Egyptian style pita, koshari, kofta, molokhia, and mosakka, with many reviewers praising the homemade hummus as a standout. Reviews note generous portions and good value, even when prices are a bit higher, and describe the food as thoughtfully prepared and consistently delicious. The atmosphere is described as welcoming and family friendly, with attentive service and the chef engaging with guests. A few notes mention slower service but the overall quality makes it worth the wait, and Ramadan specials like macaroni bechamel add to the experience. Many comments highlight the sense of returning, the ability to host private events in a large room, and the feeling of tasting memories of Egypt in Chateauguay.
If you want to visit Egypt & not fly halfway accross the globe this is the spot to be. Amazing comfort food with a smooth authentic ambiance. Service is exemplary & by god the hummus is to die for. Thank you baba hamdi
J'ai célébré mon 60ième anniversaire dans le salon privé! Une gran fête plus de 70 personnes! Service, qualité, confort, tout le service a été fantastique!
After two weeks of feasting across Montreal, Baba Hamdi was the grand finale we were craving. Authentic, delicious, & made with so much love by the great Baba Hamdi himself.

Hamdi nous fait voyager avec sa cuisine, que dire de l'ambiance & du décor, nous avons toujours eu un excellent serive, un voyage en Égypte à Chateauguay
Baba Hamdi is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the warm, beautifully decorated interior. The food was nothing short of amazing: authentic Egyptian flavors, perfectly seasoned, & served in impressively large portions that easily satisfy even the heartiest appetite.
Customer service here is exemplary. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles & attentiveness throughout the meal, & to top it all off, the Chef himself came over to walk me through the menu.
Overall, Baba Hamdi delivers on every front, delicious food, outstanding service, & charming atmosphere. A solid 10/10, I can't wait to go back!
Je ne pourrai pas décrire comment ce restaurant est chaleureux.
Les mets sont 100% authentiques car j'ai mangé les mêmes plats en Égypte 🇪🇬.
Tout ce qu'on a essayé était délicieux, notamment le Khoshari.
Le service était impeccable.
Je reviendrai plusieurs fois.
