Balbastik is described in reviews as a warm, welcoming spot delivering hearty Mauritanian-inspired dishes at friendly prices, with house made bread that many readers praise for its soft interior and lightly crisp crust. The sandwiches stand out, from beef meatball to vegan bean crepes, noted for generous portions, bold flavors, and satisfying textures, while chicken options and other menu items also get compliments. Drinks and desserts, including hibiscus and mint beverages, baobab popsicles, and other housemade options, are portrayed as bright, refreshing complements to the meals. The staff and ambiance earn frequent praise for kindness, hospitality, and a cozy, music-filled atmosphere that makes guests feel at home and eager to return. Overall, Balbastik appears as a neighborhood gem offering authentic flavors, good value, and a welcoming place for dine-in or takeout, with many expressing intentions to explore more of the menu.

I got the beef sandwich with it being spicy. This man is an artist. That spicy sauce with a little honey is on . At only $10 is a steal for a sandwich for lunch. I didn't see if he sold any juices or sodas but that'd be the only thing I'd add to the menu if he doesn't sell them. I'll be back here before I go home.

The best sandwiches! Gone back several times during my time in Montreal & it never fails to impress me. The rich flavours, the tenderness of the meat (both chicken & beef), & the wonderful soft bread are so just so good. Fresh mint tea & hibiscus juice available too. Owner is so kind as well. Going to miss this place a lot
