Absolutely amazing authentic Lebanese breakfast!

The fatteh & fool were flavorful, fresh, & perfectly prepared, & the zaatar cheese man2oushe was delicious with the perfect balance of crispy dough & flavor.
Everything tasted homemade & authentic.

On top of the excellent food, the staff were so friendly & welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for a true Lebanese breakfast experience, this place is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

We didn't plan to have our breakfast at this restaurant , planned at Kumoun but it was closed, Googled it a bit & found Balila was nearby. We really enjoyed our time & food here. Staff was so nice, restaurant was large & very clean, washroom very clean, food was amazing, price was very decent. We drove from Regina Sask visiting a few cities, & surely if we come again Montreal we will eat again here.

Amazing lebanese breakfast & brunch. Great & fast service, the owner was extremely welcoming. Food is rich in flavour & so enjoyable. There was even a live performance of electric oud. Music was incredible😍 (I only put a small portion in the video because there is too much chit-chat, but the musician was playing all the best lebanese classic & pop music)

A great start of the day, totally recommended!

There is even the possibility to sit outside, next to their spacious parking.

We had a wonderful Lebanese breakfast here. The food was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully prepared, but what really stood out was how well they took care of us-attentive, kind, & genuinely welcoming service. The live music added such a special touch & created a relaxed, joyful atmosphere. The ambience was cozy & vibrant at the same time, making it the perfect place to enjoy a slow breakfast. Highly recommend for both the food & the experience.
