Reviews describe Boustan as fast, clean and welcoming, with generous portions and fresh, flavorful dishes like shawarma and falafel. The staff are repeatedly praised for friendliness, efficiency and attentive service, with many customers noting small gestures like free potatoes or desserts that heighten the experience. Value is a common thread, including large portions and occasional student discounts, and the atmosphere is consistently described as inviting and well kept. A few reviews mention occasional inconsistencies such as uneven meat portions or missing ingredients in soups, but the overall impression is that Boustan offers tasty, reliable Lebanese fare and dependable, friendly service that draws people back.
The first thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean everything looked. The staff were super friendly & made me feel welcome right away. Add to that the huge portions I received, I'll definitely be coming back!
I ordered on Ubereats because I was craving a crispy shawarma & this place did not disappoint. Everything was fresh, delicious, & packaged really well. I love their vegan brownies too! Will definitely order again 🙌🏼

Nous sommes des réguliers à ce boustan, on apprécie grandement le rabais étudiant, ce n'est pas tous les boustans qui le font, présentez votre carte!
Les employés qui nous accueillis ce soir étaient : Adamant, Matteo
Mmm! Trop heureuse depuis que Boustan s'est installé dans l'quartier ! C'est tellement bon! Mon amoureux & moi on est particulièrement fou du savoureux « champignon shiitaké végane tout garni, dans un pain saj » débordant de délices; on pourrait en manger tous les jours sans se tanner ! Oh, & la texture parfaite du pain saj ajoute tellement à l'expérience, faut pas s'en passer ! En plus, les employés sont sympathiques, & font une belle équipe. J'aime les voir fonctionner ensemble, ils sont harmonieux, concentrés, présent & de bonne humeur, ce qui est rare & précieux! Ils font aussi parti de cette expérience plaisante. C'est simple, on ressort de là en appétit & avec le goût de danser !
I would like to take a moment to thank the entire team for their excellent customer service, & especially Ali. After receiving a cold order through Uber, Ali went out of his way to offer me a thoughtful solution. I truly appreciated his professionalism, kindness, & the care he showed in ensuring customer satisfaction.
Thank you again for this thoughtful gesture it's the kind of service that really makes a difference.

Have been to a few Boustan but for me this one is not worth it. Perhaps it was because it was end of day but ordered the chicken shish taouk & while the veggies were tasty the chicken was VERY dry. Also ordered the butternut squash & lentil soup & there were no lentils in it. Likely because it was pureed, but disappointing.
