Review Summary

Boustan is widely appreciated for its fresh, flavorful Lebanese cuisine, particularly the signature shawarma, shish taouk, and charcoal-toasted pitas. Guests frequently highlight the welcoming and efficient service, with many staff members noted for their kindness, hygiene, and willingness to go above and beyond for customers. While the majority of feedback is positive regarding portion sizes and overall value, some concerns have been raised regarding occasional inconsistencies in food quality, such as undercooked rice or lukewarm ingredients, as well as rising prices. Although the physical space is described by some as needing renovations, the restaurant remains a popular destination for its generous meals and friendly atmosphere.

Very good food

Ordered through Uber - food was delicious, love the generous portions & variety. We got 2 mix plates with chicken & beef, this was served over rice & potatoes, there was a salad, hummus & garlic sauce. Everything can be customized to your liking. We haven't eaten at Boustan in a couple years - since they rebranded, new logo & menu, new bowls, we noticed the prices have really gone up but the food quality, portion size & flavors are excellent. The bowls we got were huge, honestly I am a big eater & can confirm there was enough for at least two portions. Obviously ordering throught the app is more expensive but I would estimate these were about $20 a person otherwise. Everything was so tasty & I had leftovers for the next day, really appreciated this.

J'ai trouvé cet endroit plutôt bon! Beaucoup de choix & le goût est au rendez-vous. J'ai pris pita avec viande mixte plus des potatoes pour 18$! C'était bien bon, les patates étaient fraîches & bien cuites. La viande était correcte, c'est pas cher & ça dépanne.

We arrived in Montreal around 6:30 pm, after several hours of flying & driving. It was raining & we didn't want to go out in search of dinner. After a quick check for vegan restaurants in the area, Boustan caught our attention. We ordered the falafel bowls, a vegan Brownie, & some Montellier water. It was all very good. There were five decent sized falafel in the bowl. Between that, the hummus, & the salad, we had a nice mix of flavor. If we come across another Boustan location in our travels, we will definitely eat there. Unfortunately, we didn't take photos of the food before eating it. Yet, we have added a photo of a falafel (for size) & the can of water.
