We ordered mixed shawarma plates, & they were super fresh & tasted amazing. We forgot to add salad to our plate, so we went back to buy it, & the cashier refused to let us pay for it. Everybody was nice & respectful, so I really don't know what all those complainers are talking about.

Amazing shawarma. Lots of sauce choices. The fries were so tasty & crispy. Big portions. I enjoyed the baklava as well! The meat could use a bit more fat.

Delicious shawarma. But the place was super messy. I would recommend getting take out.

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 😅
