About

Byblos Le Petit Café focuses on the authentic preparation of traditional Persian recipes centered around saffron-infused rice, tender grilled skewers, and slow-cooked stews. The menu highlights a variety of vegetable-forward dishes, incorporating fresh herbs, legumes, and dried fruits to balance bold aromatic profiles. Patrons encounter a setting defined by cultural artwork and vibrant textile accents that mirror the rich heritage of Iranian culinary traditions. The kitchen prioritizes the use of high-quality proteins seasoned with classic spices like turmeric, sumac, and cinnamon to ensure depth of flavor in every serving. Each plate emphasizes careful assembly and natural ingredients rather than complex fusion techniques or modern culinary trends. This establishment remains a consistent destination for individuals seeking genuine regional flavors served in a straightforward, culturally immersive environment that honors long-standing Middle Eastern cooking methods.

The food was mediocre & overpriced. While paying at the counter, we noticed the food prep area looked quite unclean & not very sanitary, which was disappointing. Overall, it wasn't what I was hoping for, & I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Hidden gem in Montréal! This is such a lovely & cozy restaurant. Whether you want to grab something to eat or just drink something, this is a beautiful place to do so.

There's a nice variety of dishes & desserts. The service is kind & quick. & the atmosphere is just top-tier - the decoration is great & the vibe is so chill.

Definitely recommended!

This is such a beautiful place but the food is atrociously bad & low quality. I hate how an espresso there is like $6 too.

I was there for a quick bite & we stopped because the ambiance was nice.
They serve small plates & the food is very flavorful. I'm thinking of going for a full meal.

This is the Persian breakfast I know & love, just ever so little tilted to the western taste. Loved it! No fuss, nice food, quite, space

Expérience du samedi 26/07
La serveuse était vraiment de bon conseil & à mon écoute & riche de conseil
En revanche j'ai pas été hyper emballé par la cuisine
26$ tips inclu (15%) pour une omelette bonne mais pas vraiment incroyable- 1 latte soya (vraiment loupé peut être un des pires de ma vie) du pain & un peu de confiture qui ceci dit était bonne
En résumé je ne suis pas certain d'y retourner & c'est bien dommage
