Coming from Ottawa "land of the Shawarma" nothing beats Boustans on crescent st. Crispy cabbage, flavourful chicken & the best spice hummus mix. Let's not forget the pita was crisped to perfection. Sad to go back to Ottawa & not have this place near me. Great job!

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.

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

Montréal est une superbe ville. Une des plus belle ville du monde. Cette métropole francophone en Amérique du Nord charme beaucoup les touristes & ses propres citoyens. Mais ce qui est encore plus formidable de cette ville c'est le restaurant Libanais Boustan. Wow, juste WOW !🎊 La merveilleuse viande tendres tellement ca fond dans la bouche(en plus cest Halal), les succulents patates à l'ail, le riz délicieux. Sans compter les salades fraîches pour ceux qui ont des régimes strictes, ou ceux qui aimes juste les salades. Juste à en parler, j'ai envie d'aller me chercher un plat shawarma avec une bonne taboulé 🤤 Les employés sont très généreux quand il vous font des plats contrairement à leur compétiteurs où ils remplissent à peine le plats. Un service hors pair Saviez vous que le Boustan sur la rue Crescent c'est le Boustan original. En plus de cela quelques vedettes ont fait leur tour dans ce restaurant, ça c'est très cool. Je recommande même cette endroit pour votre première date. Juste oublié pas votre paquet de gomme. Vous allez vraiment en avoir besoin car vous allez très certainement commandé une sauce à l'ail tellement elle est bonne Allez dans ce restaurant, vous ne serez vraiment pas déçu -Gabriel

The rue crescent store used to be good like few months ago. I bought chicken shawarma sandwich today. It was all new people working there. The sandwich was soggy. Potatoes were bit raw & cold.
