Reviews portray Bei as a standout Lebanese spot in downtown Montreal, with fresh, authentic flavors across wraps, shawarmas, and bowls, crispy saj bread, and generous portions; the beef and chicken shawarmas are repeatedly praised as among the best in the city, and dishes like halloumi, labneh, and za'atar fries are consistently noted for quality and balance; the ambiance is welcoming, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with friendly staff and good value including student discounts; while overall experience is highly positive, a few comments mention slower service, occasional miscommunication at the counter, or a safety incident in one visit; taken together, Bei emerges as a top choice for those craving high quality Lebanese food and a vibrant, authentic vibe that invites return.
I saw their restaurant from a review on TikTok from EveryEatsPossivle so I figured why not give it a try.
I can say 100% after eating here, it was so worth trying.
The owner & staff were exceptionally friendly & helpful, the interior decor was both stunning & clean but mostly importantly, the food was delicious.
I took 2 different pitas that the owner recommended, the beef bei pita & batata pita.
The beef bei no joke was definitely one of the best beef pitas I've ever had, the seasonings & juiciness from the beef mixed in with the sauce & other condiments made it worth every penny spent.
As for the batata, my best comparison to it is a cream cheese vegetable sandwich but turned into a pita, they even added zaatar chips which gave it an extra bit of crunch.
On top of all that, they have a nice 10$ pita trio deal & even discounts if you are a Concordia student.
So overall this place is awesome, if you haven't had their food yet, then I highly recommend to try it at least once.
Drove specifically from Toronto for this shawarma & let me tell you i'm extremely far from disappointed. The best shawarma i have genuinely ever had in my entire life & i don't say that with any exaggeration. must try immediately

Amazing Shawarma place, top 5 in Montreal in my opinion! Delicious drinks & the Bei sandwich option with halloumi is the move!! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking to try a new local shawarma shop! Staff is super friendly too!
Such a welcoming Lebanese shawarma spot. The owners are incredibly kind & make you feel right at home. Great vibes, good music, & the food is absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh & authentic.Highly recommend.
Got there with a friend at 10:10 pm the doors were closed when it says that it closes at 11pm. The staff looked at us didnt even care to apologies. Took my car from south shore for no reason.
Ordered a chicken Saj & meat saj shawarma & both were salty, greasy & we couldn't have more than two bites ….
Very disappointed tonight with this order $35 for non edible food
