Had a nice evening with some friends on the terrace. I understand it was a busy Thursday evening, but I must say, the service was a little slow. Maybe having 1 extra waiter would have been perfect. However, waiters were courteous & warm.

As for the food, I had the vegan falafel plate (4 falafels, hummus, pickled onions, pickle & a large piece of bread). Although it was good, it was quite expensive ($25) for what is actually being served.

Atmosphere/vibes were pretty good; lots of people (in a good way) & the terrace was great (& surprisingly not that loud for such a busy street).

As for the drinks, I had a few neat whiskies & although they were good, they were served in a short tumbler glass. Quick recommendation to the bar: please serve your neat whiskies in a Glencairn glass instead.

I would be open to returning to this place. I think with a few adjustments, I could really enjoy this place much more.

Best falafel I've ever had was here

Haven't even left the table yet & needed to leave a review. If you're not trying this place out while you're in Montreal, then you are missing out. The cocktails & the beer are fantastic. The menu is perfectly curated & the flavors are truly impeccable. The burger, falafel, cucumber salad & homemade bread were insanely delicious & seasoned with perfection. You can tell they care about using quality ingredients here. & they have outdoor patio seating! More importantly, the staff are exceptionally kind & courteous, something you can't say for many food establishments in this city.

Belle adresse ! J'ai pris le sandwich falafel qui était très bon. Enfin un bar qui sert du Lillet :-) Les prix sont un poil au dessus d'un bar classique mais parce que l'endroit est un poil plus chic (sans être trop fancy). Bonne musique d'ambiance & bon service également !

This place is okay if it's late & you want to grab a bite... but food is pretty bad. The falafel sandwich was okay, but the mushroom pizza is really sad. Had no flavour at all. If you ask for spicy oil, they charge you +3$. We also ordered some fries & asked for ketchup, we never got it.

The food was absolutely delicious & well thought out. My friend & I ordered several plates to share. Highly recommend the halibut crudo; the lime zest & coconut milk was an amazing burst of flavours! The falafel was perfectly cooked & reminded me so much of my childhood. The star for me was the fattoush/taboule dish. It was topped with pomegranate seeds & crunchy pita chips. All the dishes had the perfect balance of textures & flavours. I loved the decor of the restaurant, too. I highly recommend this place!
