A must try! Different than other Lebanese restaurants in the city. You'll find dishes you only eat at home. The food was so tasty & well executed. The staff was attentive, joyful & on point. Will definitely return. Highly recommend.

We ordered the tasting menu for 2 people. The food itself was fine & the portion was huge. The food didn't quite fit our taste buds as we found every dish to be very acidic & sour. That's not the reason for the negative review though.

From start to finish, the service at our table was noticeably different from the two tables right beside us. We watched water & pita bread get refilled automatically at neighboring tables without them having to ask. We had to ask multiple times & were largely ignored. When we finally flagged someone down, our requests either weren't followed through on or arrived very late. Both servers seemed visibly tense & on edge the entire evening.

At one point I had to ask for toilet paper in the washroom. Instead of simply bringing it, one of the servers went into the kitchen visibly upset, gesturing & pointing out the kitchen door while complaining to a colleague. When I noticed this through the see through kitchen door, the male server caught my eye & his expression made it clear he knew the behavior was inappropriate. I ended up having to ask a different server entirely.

To top it off, both tables near us received complimentary items at the end of their meals. We received nothing - & instead found a glass of wine on our bill that we never ordered. The explanation was that the tables were close together & it was a mix-up. The wine was removed, but there was no real apology, no acknowledgment of the overall experience, & no effort to make things right.

I can't say for certain why our table was treated so differently. But the contrast was consistent & impossible to miss. We felt like an afterthought all evening, & that's not something I'd wish on anyone visiting a restaurant.

One of the main reasons I love going to BAYRUT is actually how I feel after I leave. The food is authentic, fresh, natural, & beautifully prepared, so you still get that high-end dining experience without feeling overly heavy afterward like at a lot of other restaurants.

The atmosphere is also perfect for a first date or couples night out, but equally amazing for family gatherings because Lebanese food is meant to be shared. My favorite spots in Montreal.

Excellent service & conseils sur le menu. Repas excellent & menu varié. Peu achalandé, mais c'était un mardi soir. Une vraie immersion libanaise.

Wow. Bayrut on William Street completely impressed me.
The flavours are bold, fresh, & genuinely authentic - the kind of food that makes you pause because the taste hits you in the best way. Every dish felt thoughtful & beautifully made.

If you love Lebanese food, or just great food done with care, Bayrut is absolutely worth it. I left already planning my next visit.
