BÁYRŪT is a modern Lebanese kitchen rooted in family, memory, and tradition. Inspired by the recipes of our mother Nunu and the food of our childhood, we serve dishes that honour the classics — creamy hummus made fresh daily, vibrant tabbouleh, and the rich earthiness of lentils and freekeh. Every plate tells a story, of the mountains of Lebanon, of meals passed hand to hand, and of the joy of feeding others with care. Whether you're here for a quick lunch or a slow, soulful dinner, we invite you to taste a legacy passed down through generations and reimagined for today.
Bayrut Restaurant earns praise for authentic Lebanese flavors, generous portions, and fresh, well presented dishes, with many noting a warm and attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere. Reviewers highlight the tasting menu as a standout experience, the bread, hummus, and tabbouleh, and the use of Lebanese wines and l'Arak in moderation, while some mention high prices or smaller portions for the cost and occasional modern twists or tapas style serving. The overall impression is that Bayrut Restaurant reflects a home style, family inspired cooking with pride in recipes, delivering flavorful, balanced dishes and thoughtful touches that make guests feel at home, encouraging return visits.
Loved every bit of it. It's the most authentic Lebanese cuisine experience I had outside lebanon. The hummus, freeki with chicken, shish barak.... Everything is just awesome.

Absolutely loved this restaurant! The hospitality & food was 10/10! Everything is so well thought by & the owner went above & beyond to make us taste the best of the Lebanese cuisine! Very authentic experience, it feels like home!
It pains me to write this review because I genuinely wanted to love this place, but unfortunately, it fell short. The food was decent, but nowhere near the standards set by other Lebanese restaurants on the island of Montreal. While the restaurant aims to stand out by offering a more'homemade' style of Lebanese cuisine, it doesn't quite capture the authentic flavors one would expect. That said, the dessert options helped improve the overall experience, & the service was excellent throughout.
Beautiful experience! The food tasted so authentic, like a comforting home-cooked meal made with love. Every dish was flavorful, fresh, & beautifully presented. The freshly baked bread was absolutely delicious - warm, soft, & the perfect start to the meal. The service was just as memorable, with a friendly & welcoming team that made us feel right at home. Everything came together to create a warm & inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for genuine Lebanese flavors.
What makes this restaurant truly special is the hospitality, it reminded me so much of the kind of warmth & generosity you find in Lebanon. The owners are the heart of this place. From the moment we walked in, they welcomed us with genuine care, big smiles, & an attention to detail that made us feel like honoured guests at the bar. You can tell how much pride they take in both the food & the experience they create.
The food itself was fantastic! Flavourful, fresh, & beautifully prepared. Every bite felt authentic & made with love.
& while the owners set the tone with their incredible hospitality, our server Joya carried it through with attentive & kind service.
It's rare to find a spot where the food & the people running it are equally unforgettable. This is one of those places. Thank you for a great night ❤?
Bayrut is more than just an authentic lebanese restaurant, it is a one-of-a kind dining experience. From the moment you walk-in to this place, you feel warmth & kindness.
They offer you a welcome trio that consists of freshly baked pita, that just came out of the oven. It is accompanied by delicious olives that are directly imported from Lebanon & home-made butter that I have never tasted anything alike previously. Their'Hummus Bayrut' is a must-try, it is very creamy.
It is very evident that the owners of this place worked tirelessly to come up with this gourmet menu. They take care of every detail from the decoration of the place to the food to the music playing in the background.
I am so happy I got to experience Bayrut & I am looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable experience! The food is made with ancient, authentic family recipes that you won't find anywhere else. Every bite feels rich with tradition & absolutely delicious!
Lovely experience in Montreal at Bayrut! The food is really special, not the usual Lebanese you find in most places but authentic yet fine & delicious. Warm & welcoming atmosphere & great drinks selection. A must try ✨
If you're craving truly authentic Lebanese cuisine-the kind that tastes like it was made by someone's loving teta (grandma)-this is the spot.
From the moment you walk in, you're greeted like family. The warm, inviting atmosphere sets the perfect tone for a romantic date night or a lively dinner with friends.
Every dish is homemade & overflowing with love. The hummus is impossibly creamy, the tabbouleh is vibrant & fresh, & the kibbeh, my favorite! Don't miss the grape leaves, which are rolled with care & packed with flavor, or the sambousek lahme which is stuffed with seasoned ground beef.
What makes this place truly special is the soul in every bite. You can taste generations of tradition in the food. It's not flashy or overdone-just deeply comforting, heartwarming Lebanese food made with care.
Whether you're sipping rose water tea after your meal or sharing their delicious rice pouding & laughing with friends, you'll leave full, happy, & already planning your next visit.
A must-visit. A love letter to Lebanese home cooking 💛
