Review Summary

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.

Le monsieur qui m'a servi était très gentil mais je crois qu'il commence à avoir de l'insalubrité. Il avait beaucoup de poussière & de vielle nourriture sur le côté des plats. Aussi, la nourriture n'étais pas fraîche, il a du mettre la nourriture au micro-ondes.... La nourriture ne goute pas comme d'habitude.

Good food at good prices. Friendly people, fast service, indoor/outdoor seating. We ordered a salad bowl with all the veggies. Beef shawarma & chicken shawarma all really good. Would go back.

The OG Boustan. Prices have gone up (like with everything) but this place is still the best Lebanese quick food in town.

Avocado salad was made with frozen avocado. Very unpleasant to eat. We asked to not add Navets to any of our food but still received it with navets.
