I ordered the crispy mixed shawarma bowl & it was solid overall. The chicken & beef had good flavor with some crispy bits, the potatoes were filling, & the sauces were generous & creamy. The bowl is definitely meat-&-carb forward, so it can feel a bit heavy, but everything tastes good together once mixed. A reliable choice when you want something filling & comforting.

I don't know about the atmosphere I ordered this to break fast as a born & raised leb BEST bowl I've ever had had to call them & tell them thank you for the flavours just order it

The new ciruclaire bowl is horrible. The potatoes become soggy, less meat, it's a total mess I will never order boustan again & it sucks because it used to be the best.

Best late night & day time food in Montreal Downtown. The workers especially Britesh served us the freshest & tastiest shawarma bowl. Amazing!!! tastiest potatoes & chicken!

The food is top notch & halal. The vegan bowl was just as tasty as the meat

Regular customer, the bowls are satiating a bit overpriced though. I would stay away from the fried potatoes as they are greasy compared to other boustan i've been to. One last thing, the old guy preparing orders needs to learn some manners talking to customers & maybe god forbid try to smile once in a while like the rest of the staff.

I like the seating of this restaurant. Although there's air con but the restaurant is completely open to the side walk. There are no windows. It's like sitting in the outside enjoying the fresh air & watch the cars & people going by. It's a popular place. Crowded. The souvlaki combo is $20 tax included. Portion is generous. Fried potatoes are crispy. Rice & meats are tasty. They put all the sauce you requested in the bowl. But we did go back to ask for some garlic sauce to dip my pita bread. The staff are accommodating. I like this better than souvlaki bar. I'll return.

Lower than average Boustan experience, didn't get greeted & got a significantly lower amount of food on the bowl than usual (cook was basically counting the amounts he was putting.)

The mixed chicken & beef bowl with garlic sauce was really good.

Nice, casual place.. Good food & above all halal. I ordered my bowl with salad.. Fatoush with chicken shawarma.. Very good.

Went here while visiting the city from Halifax. It was AMAZINGGGG. AWESOME SHAWARMA. everything was perfect. We got the bowls & spent the rest of the meal talking about how we want to open up a boustan in Halifax. We went Oct 26 & Oct 27 at around midnight. The young man at the cash was super sweet too.

The garlic sauce is really really good with everything. I got the standard sized mixed (beef & chicken) bowl & it’s so delicious - the portion is big enough for 2 people as a post-concert meal at midnight. Probably the best shawarma I’ve ever had, the tabouleh & potatoes were exceptional & the meat was properly seasoned. Wish I was in Montreal longer so I could eat more 😅
