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 is described as a warm, inviting gem in Montreal where authentic Lebanese cuisine is delivered with a home cooked touch. Reviewers consistently praise generous tasting menus, fresh pita with traditional butter, creamy hummus, vibrant fattoush, and a wide range of shareable dishes that feel like family cooking. The service and hospitality are highlighted as outstanding, with staff attentive, friendly, and clearly proud of the cooking, and many experiences include personal touches from the team. There are occasional critiques about price and portion size, and a few opinions that some dishes lean toward presentation over tradition, but the overall consensus is that the flavors are fresh, balanced, and comforting. Several notes mention house made butter, truffle hints in the hummus, Lebanese wines, and standout items like lamb, freekeh, grape leaves, and shish barak, reinforcing Bayrut as a destination for authentic flavors in a modern, cozy setting. Overall, the reviews describe a memorable, heartwarming dining experience with generous hospitality and quality food that many visitors say makes it worth returning for another tasting menu or a new dish.
I have never tasted something as this delicious as the food at this place, in whole city of Montreal! It's so great generously served with fresh bread, rich dishes & kind service. Highly recommended, love from Iraq ❤?

The prices are unjustified, is too pricey
Bowl of hummus 18$, are you serious?
The restaurant in short focuses way too much on the presentation which is amazing but that should not be an excuse to charge 18$ for hummus just because it has some flowers in it.
Frankly speaking, its an Instagram restaurants, wanna have some good pics & post & oh wow look this! then this is your spot.
All im saying is, food is good ,but prices are not. its good restaurant but its not gonna have loyal customers that will come back again. Due to high price
Amazing food, clean, generous. Great identity for the place, first actual lebanese authentic place I visit in Montreal. The owner is a very professional person, he talks to everyone & personally makes sure everything is up to standard. Definitely not our last time there, you step foot in that place & you already feel at home!
I had dinner at Bayrut Resto last night & it was honestly the most authentic Lebanese food I've tasted in Canada. Every dish was full of flavour & tasted just like home fresh, balanced, & beautifully presented.
The service was excellent as well. The staff were warm, welcoming, & genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience.
A must try.
The food was amazing very authentic. The standout items were eggplant fatteh, veal tongues, & shish barak (home made quality)
The staff were overly nice ;)
The place is cozy; great location
If you're looking for real unapologetically authentic Lebanese food in Montreal, this place is it. Every single dish hits with the same quality, flavor & finesse you'd expect from top spots back home in Lebanon. Nothing misses.
The team is genuinely amazing warm, attentive, & they make you feel like you're eating at a family house. The drinks u'd think they seem only Creative but honestly addictive.
Highly recommend. this is one of those spots you visit once & immediately plan your next visit. & you want to to take all your friends & tell them this is how my grandma's food taste back home.

Quelle expérience! C'est un magnifique restaurant très authentique, les plats étaient excellents, on pouvait goûter la fraîcheur des produits. J'adore la nourriture libanaise & ce que j'ai mangé ce soir était juste incroyable. & le service très attentionné d'Andrew a rendu la soirée parfaite.

Food was tasty, ambiance was really good, but frankly the portions are not very generous (smaller than expected) for the price. We had invited some friends & I was a bit embarrassed with the size of the dishes. :-(
Great place for high-class Lebanese food. Modern interpretations of traditional recipes. Precise & impressive cuisine. Very warm & welcoming service. Be warned: not a big restaurant. We didn't have a problem getting a table but if this place gets a little better known, reservations will be important.
We had an amazing experience at Bayrut! Every dish we tried was beautifully presented & full of flavour! Service was exceptional as well - attentive without being intrusive. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, & made great recommendations.
A must try!
