Tried the small classic poutine (~$9 with tax) & the potatoes were the best I've ever had 😭 No photos because I ate it so fast. Will be back for more!

The "OG" location - This is by far my favourite quick eats spot in Montreal. The best chicken shawarma I have ever had, & amazing garlic potatoes. Very friendly service as well - doesn't matter if it's been months since my last visit, when I walk in they are already making my order & remember the extra turnips 🥰

À must stop every time I'm in Montreal! The staff is always friendly & welcoming, & the food is like a party in my mouth. From the perfectly seasoned potatoes to the flavorful shawarma, every bite is pure joy, it like a party in my mouth. I'm so happy they've franchised in several other locations too. Can't wait for my next meal. Un incontournable chaque fois que je suis à Montréal! Le personnel est toujours accueillant & sympathique servant de l'excellente nourriture, c'est une fête pour les papilles gustatives. Des pommes de terre parfaitement assaisonnées au shawarma savoureux, chaque bouchée est un pur bonheur comme un party à chaque bouchée. Je suis tellement heureux qu'ils aient ouvert des franchises, les meilleurs sont maintenant disponibles ailleurs au Québec.J'ai hâte à m prochaine visite.

This is an institution in Montreal & has been around forever, so I figured I had to try it. I got the mixed shawarma pita with the garlic potatoes. It was pretty good, but definitely not anywhere near the best I've ever had. The potatoes were old & pretty dry, the only thing that saved them was the garlic mayo, which was super good, extremely garlicky. It was so good I added it to the shawarma too, because it was a bit dry. It's a small dingy kind of partially underground eatery with a bit of seating outside, nothing special. I would hope there are better shawarma places in Montreal.

I've been multiple times, & I love their food & service. It's delicious, & the potatoes are sweet & flavorful. Their garlic aïoli is stellar with a good amount of garlic in there. & their sauces are also great.

I'm from NY & my coworker asked what's good to eat in Montreal & I told him he must try this place. Every time I go to Montreal, I make sure I eat this at least once a day. The white sauce they put on the potatoes is so good that I asked them if they can give me a big container to take home & I would pay for it. He gave me a Chinese soup container size amount & since I came from NY he didn't even charge me! What a kind staff member.

Great value for money shawarmas. The potatoes are very good. The place isn't fancy. It feels run down. Service is quick & attentive.
