Chez Téta emerges from reviews as a warm, welcoming Lebanese spot with a casual, lively vibe and a strong emphasis on house made bread, fresh ingredients, and generous hospitality. Diners rhapsodize about the manoucheh varieties, dips, fattoush, hummus, and wraps, plus standout beverages like cardamom latte and rose latte, with sfouf and pistachio rose cakes cited as memorable finishes. The food is frequently described as flavorful, authentic, and comforting, with many noting that the flavors remind them of home and that the portions are satisfying for the price. The ambiance is described as cozy and inviting, sometimes bustling, with a terrace in summer and a buzz that can make the place feel busy, yet staff are repeatedly praised for friendliness, attentiveness, and quick service on large orders. A few reservations appear about peak times, where wait times and occasional mix ups can occur, and one or two mentions of limited seating or noise. Overall the consensus is that Chez Téta delivers a remarkable Lebanese dining experience in Montreal, with reliable quality, memorable desserts, and a sense of being part of a family run neighborhood gem.
This an amazing place for traditional Lebanese food. Food is succulent, service is outstanding, staff is super friendly nice & helpful. The ambiance is incredible with nice music & vibes. I highly recommend this place if you're visiting Montreal.
A true gem of modern Lebanese cuisine! Everything here is incredibly fresh, with a creative fusion twist that still honors traditional flavors. The menu offers a great variety of dishes each one more delicious than the last. Just a heads-up: don't come too late, as the most popular items tend to sell out quickly (a good sign, really!). The team is warm & welcoming, adding to the charm of the experience. The only small downside was that it felt a bit warm inside, but the amazing food & hospitality more than made up for it. Lovely coffees! Highly recommend!

Amazing place for take-out or sit down. The staff is fun & lively. The food is just incredible. Every bite I take is bliss. They know what they're doing !
One thing I wasn't fond of was the rose latte. Very very bitter, it needed a lot of sugar. The cakes, on the other hand, are all incredible.
Halva latte: I loved this. It was made really well -- not overly milky, not overly sweet, the rose/saffron/pistachio flavors really came through, as did the espresso.
Sfouf cake: I loved the flavors of this cake, it was nutty & really fragrant. The cake was very moist & not overly sweet. The turmeric is very strong though, it dried out my mouth.
Highly recommend the drinks & pastries here. Chez Tata really delivers on the flavors. Service was wonderful also. I had so many questions about the pastries displayed & the barista took the time to go through all of them & let me know what they were in detail.
Café Chez Teta is always an amazing experience! The food is delicious & the service is incredible by Melodie, Sabrina & her team! 😊 We recently went with our team of 15 & it was wonderful - we left so full & with deliciousness in our hands! Their salads, dips, manouchés & desserts were delicious! I highly recommend 🥰 You won't regret stopping by, a Lebanese restaurant filled love.

Had the Zaatar jebneh man'oushe & the Kafta one. Loved both & & enjoyed eating them with Lebanese coffee. Staff was super friendly too, highly recommend
Café Chez Teta is a must try for all Lebanese food lovers !! The food is so tasty, fresh & delicious. Friendly & amazing customer service. Highly recommended !
We ordered a half cheese & half zaatar manoucheh with added cucumbers & a rose & pistachio cake for takeout. The freshly baked flatbread was terrific, & the manoucheh was delicious. We also loved the rose & pistachio cake. If you plan to dine in, there's only one toilet for the whole restaurant. You order the food inside & wait for the food order outside. We highly recommend this place.

Finally dined in this restaurant after getting take out twice! It gets really busy & I get the hype! Food is delicious & so tasty & fresh. Loved all the manusches we got. The rose pistachio cake was the best part of this meal! Highly recommend!
I visited last Sunday & it was absolutely worth it. It was a real taste from home for me. The food was so good that it really reminded of my "teta". The service was fast despite the fact that it was packed. I will definitely come back ! Highly recommended for mediterranean & Lebanese food lovers!
We walked in & were able to get seated fairly quickly despite the place being packed. Food was delicious & the host/ owner was so friendly & gracious. Service was incredible by all staff. We loved that there was very light music playing but you could easily have a conversation & hear the other person. Well worth the hype, highly recommend.
Wonderful Lebanese spot! We ordered cardamom & baklava latte, can't express enough how much I loved the cardamom latte! The manoucheh (chicken sandwich) was really yummy with lot of garlic sauce on top! We also tried zartar which tasted delicious as well! Highly recommend this place!
