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.

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.
Delicious spot for a quick casual bite. Love that they toasted the outside for an extra Layer of texture. The potato's with the garlic sauce are out of this world! My only qualm while dining in is that ventilation is not great. It gets quite Smokey inside so my eyes started to itch & water. The food is worth it!

Service très mauvais , comme 90 % des fast food de la ville . A chaque fois que je viens & précise à deux reprises que je veux mon plat sur place , on me l'emballe dans un sac à emporter . Quand je demande pourquoi on me répond on a pas le temps ( alors qu'il y avait peu de monde) C'est un immense manque de respect & qui est trop normalisé . Un conseil soyez respectueux & un minimum à l'ecoute du client , sinon vous n'avez rien à faire dans le service client On se déplace chez vous pour dépenser notre argent chez vous c'est le minimum demandé.
The new pita is so delicious! I am so happy I get to eat here all the time. The staff was also incredibly kind & efficient despite the long line & large number of customers! Very impressed.
Boustan is hands down my favorite shawarma spot! The food is consistently delicious, affordable, & prepared quickly, making it a great go-to for a satisfying meal. The staff is always friendly & welcoming, even during busy times, & they work efficiently to get your order ready. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or looking for something tasty & filling, Boustan never disappoints! 🫶🏻🫶🏻 .
