I arrived in Montreal late afternoon on a Monday which is not the easiest time to find food anywhere but at fast food establishment. I ordered a mixed shawarma wrap, tabouleh salad & a side of hummus. Everything was pretty tasty & served quickly. The tabouleh was different than I've had before, mostly parsley, barely any bulgar but it was very fresh & tasty. The meat on the shawarma was juicy & tasty. I would visit this chain again for a quick meal.

It would be a 5 star if they got the order right every time. Great Lebanese food, it's nearly as good as before Boustan became a chain. Located perfectly in downtown Montreal this place is great for a quick filling delicious meal. A bit on the pricey side considering but worth it flavor wise.

Make sure to get the garlic sauce with your potatoes, it's great!

Food was amazing! Great that they are open at late hours.
A guy entered the place when i was there & he started yelling at a girl out of nowhere, & the staff kicked him out.
The staff is super friendly & quick.
