Since 1986 Restaurant Boustan, has been serving up the exotic flavors of Lebanon in downtown Montreal. Satisfy your hunger by indulging in our carefully prepared dishes.
Boustan gets high marks for flavorful fresh food and generous portions at a good price, with shawarma, garlic potatoes, falafel and veggie pita bowls often singled out as standout items and the garlic sauce described as addictive. Service is repeatedly praised as friendly, fast and welcoming, contributing to a homey feel and a dependable experience for quick lunches or late nights out. Many reviewers note convenient locations and consistent quality across visits, with gluten free options and vegetarian choices well received. Some critiques include occasional order mix ups, a burnt oil smell and warm dining areas with limited air conditioning, and concerns around food safety standards. Overall Boustan is described as one of the best in Montreal and in some cases the top Boustan, making it a must try for visitors to the city.
Boustan's Crescent catered for our group of 50 people with excellent service every step of the way. They accommodated vegan & gluten free diners with delicious food! The Shiitake mushrooms were cooked so well some of the group couldn't believe they were mushrooms & not chicken. Garlic potatoes of course are a fan favourite, I will be stopping by for my personal lunches as well!

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.
Always serve hot crispy potatoes, the beef (my preference) is great I highly appreciate the staff for mixing up my bowls as per my request. On top of that, all the staff I've personally met were generally good vibes.
