Byblos Le Petit Café se concentre sur la préparation authentique de recettes persanes traditionnelles, articulées autour du riz infusé au safran, des brochettes grillées tendres et des ragoûts mijotés. Le menu met en lumière une variété de plats axés sur les légumes, intégrant des herbes fraîches, des légumineuses et des fruits secs pour équilibrer les profils aromatiques audacieux. Les convives découvrent un cadre défini par des œuvres d'art culturelles et des accents textiles vibrants qui reflètent le riche héritage des traditions culinaires iraniennes. La cuisine privilégie l'utilisation de protéines de haute qualité assaisonnées d'épices classiques comme le curcuma, le sumac et la cannelle pour assurer une profondeur de saveur dans chaque portion. Chaque assiette souligne un assemblage soigné et des ingrédients naturels plutôt que des techniques de fusion complexes. Cet établissement demeure une destination pour ceux qui recherchent des saveurs régionales authentiques servies dans un environnement culturellement immersif.
Byblos Le Petit Café est largement reconnu comme une destination chaleureuse, accueillante et esthétique à Montréal, offrant une fusion unique de saveurs perses traditionnelles adaptées au goût occidental. De nombreux visiteurs apprécient l'établissement pour son omelette à la feta emblématique, ses confitures maison et son service de thé authentique, soulignant souvent l'atmosphère bohème comme cadre idéal pour un repas détendu. Bien que plusieurs clients qualifient l'expérience culinaire de délicieuse et évoquant la cuisine familiale traditionnelle, d'autres expriment leur déception face à des incohérences récentes concernant la qualité des plats, la taille des portions et la lenteur du service. Bien que les avis sur l'authenticité et le rapport qualité-prix restent partagés, le restaurant continue d'attirer ceux qui recherchent un brunch ou un dîner savoureux dans un quartier charmant et vivant.
Used to be my favourite breakfast spot in Montreal - when I lived in the city I'd go almost every week & since I moved away I've made a point of visiting at least once every time I've been in town. I was a loyal customer for 25 years! But it seems to have slid recently - prices have shot way up, portions are smaller, quality down, bread seemed stale, service lacklustre, the busy vibrancy seems to have faded. Sad to say but I don't see myself going back.
For someone who really loves Persian food & Persian breakfast, I was expecting so much more. The food was just okay - not very flavorful or memorable - & the portions felt small for the price. The drinks were especially disappointing. We asked multiple times if the juice was fresh, but it tasted frozen or possibly old, & the latte tasted watered down. Overall, the experience didn't feel authentic or worth the cost. Hopefully they improve the freshness & quality because Persian food can be so much better than this.
Please don't miss your chance when it comes to try this Persian restaurant. From breakfast to dinner each meal is simply unique with flavors & menu diversity. Plus, the staff was lovely throughout the whole time & the accommodation, seatings & décor was all great! It gave me this calm impression like I could enjoy my meal & have a unique experience, & the neighborhood is also a great place to take a walk right after so location wise I wouldn't have put it better. Please, I can't repeat it enough but go have a meal you'll have a wonderful time over there.

We had Sunday brunch. The standard breakfast menu includes a beverage, bread of some sort, jam & potentially eggs. You can however order from anywhere in the menu including a variety of egg-based pies like quiche & prepared spreads like hummus, eggplant or beet-based concoctions that come with different types of bread for dipping. Gluten free bread & pita is available on request. The dishes were delicious though simple & more filling than they look. This is a good place to go for a group to share a few different dishes & get a good sampling.
If you're used to Western breakfasts like omelets, English ham & sausage, & Mon coco etc, try a traditional Iranian breakfast.
Byblos Restaurant is named after a city in present-day Libya with a 7,000-year history, once ruled by the Persian Empire.
Naan, feta cheese, dill herbs, olives, & radish, along with a cup of sweet Persian tea, make up the essential Persian breakfast. The warm, freshly baked bread & naan, paired with homemade jam from an Iranian mother, & the aromatic flavors of ginger & rose petals, create a rich & complex flavor.
Add scrambled eggs between pita bread for a complete & luxurious Iranian breakfast.
A favourite of mine for the last 20 years. Their signature dish for breakfast or brunch is the feta omelette. Served with sweet bread & your choice of delicate jams.
One of my favorite place to eat in the city! Been a customer for the last 10years (mostly for their breakfast). This place keep its welcoming charm & authentic delicious Persian food. Family owned, it really keeps a unique home feeling as soon as you get in. My favorite is their feta omelette & their rose-pistachio jam with their bread.
Meat pate is delicious & good choice for babies. It's the first place in Montreal where I was able to get salad for breakfast 👍🏻. By the way coffee is very very good.
Such a cute & pleasant local resto...Byblos serves Persian style cuisine for breakfast, lunch & dinner...organized in their menu by chapters (a very nice concept). The decor in this two room bistro is somewhat simplistic but gets the job done; & you are there to try some interesting takes on dishes that you probably would not normally have had the opportunity to experience. We were a large group & ordered a wide selection from the First Chapter of the menu: Fried Eggs with Dill (very good), Feta Omelet (good...a bit on the salty side), Date Omelet (excellent...a mix of sweet & savory that we have not experienced before), & the Feta/Halva/Sweet Bread plate (very good...nice assortment of jams to apply to the breads & pitas allow for a lot of experimentation). All the meals include tea or coffees (all of which were very good). NOTE: The omelets are not prepared in a typical way & are very runny & loose (see picture for reference...so be prepared). Service was excellent...super friendly & informative with the meal being served quite quickly even though the restaurant was almost a peak capacity. Certainly worth a visit...& after you meal, take a stroll along this section of Laurier to check out the many unique local shops. Enjoy!
