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.
Une merveilleuse découverte ce matin ! Le latté Halva est wow, le manouche aux falafels & la babaganoush nous ont impressionné par leur saveur & leur fraîcheur ! 10/10
Amazing fresh Manousheh 🥰😊 love to go there enjoy a nice warm meal. Cardamon latte is amazing. 😘 I recommend the plate so you get the dip & the salad which I love the seasoning.

Chez Teta was a 10/10 experience.
From the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional. They took their time explaining the menu & sharing their recommendations with genuine smiles, never making us feel rushed - yet everything came out so quickly. It's rare to have that balance of attentive service & efficient turnaround, especially with a large order.
You can really feel their Lebanese culture in the way they host - warm, generous, & sincere. We truly felt like family. While we were waiting for our big order, they even served us coffee on the house, which was such a thoughtful & appreciated gesture.
& the desserts are a must. Everything is made in-house & absolutely delicious. The sesame sponge cake is light & unique, & the pistachio rose cake is perfectly balanced & full of flavor.
Exceptional hospitality, fast service, & incredible food. We'll definitely be back!!
We arrived here for lunch on Saturday afternoon, it was quite packed but we were able to get seated in 15 mins.
The waiters/host were very welcoming & friendly
I ordered lahm bi ajin, zatar bread, falafel roll, coffee, hummus, cardamom latte & rose+pistachio cake... Everything tasted very fresh & yummmmy!!
I've been coming here for a few years & have always appreciated the excellent food, espresso & service. Today we came as a group of 5 including a couple with an infant for brunch. Within 40 minutes we were made to feel rushed by the staff who asked twice if we were done despite someone clearly still eating their manakeesh (more than half the dish was still on the plate & they were attending to a crying infant). I completely understand the need to ensure tables are turned over in a timely fashion on a busy weekend, however this felt aggressive & unfortunately ruined our experience. As such I don't see myself returning on a weekend nor recommending this place for brunch.
Je suis allée avec mon club de course & j'ai adoré l'expérience. J'ai goûté au latte ainsi qu'au cake, les deux étaient délicieux. J'ai déjà très hâte de revenir pour le lunch, le menu avait l'air absolument incroyable!

Such a peaceful & welcoming place , perfectly balanced manouché with cheese & zaatar. The rose latte & the pistachio-rose cake were the sweetest finishing touch. Chez Téta truly transports you with its flavors. I'll absolutely be returning!
Un endroit calme & tellement chaleureux… parfait pour savourer une manouché légère, moitié fromage moitié zaatar, un latté à la rose & un gâteau pistache-rose. Chez Téta, on voyage à travers chaque bouchée. J'y retournerai sans hésiter
🙏
Really like this cafe! Atmosphere is so good & their manouchés are different & delicious. The makdous labné one is so good, hope it becomes permanent on the menu. Amazing lattes. Also a big plus: super baby friendly!
I have tried their Zaatar, always with labneh, which is my favorite & one of the best Zaatar in Montreal! Sit, eat, then, drink their tasteful coffee with either Sfout or Rose & Pistachio cake. They melted in your mouth, can't forget their taste.
This time, I tried their beautifully designed Rose latte. I truly recommended, even you are not a fan of a taste of Rose, like myself.
Que des éloges. Jolie décor soigné un accueil chaleureux,service attentionné ainsi que la cuisine libanaise utilisant des produits de qualité. J'ai juste hâte d'y retourner. Longue vie à ce café animé & cordial…5ans que je voulais essayer l'endroit

It's not my first time at Chez Téta in the Plateau, but this time I tried their new manouché, labneh with fresh tomatoes & makdous (eggplants with walnuts & spices)& it was absolutely amazing! It's not on the menu, they're offering it just for this month as a trial, & honestly, it's a big success. The mix of creamy labneh & the crunchiness of the eggplants makes this manoucheh really special. As always, I had my favorite, the cardamom latte. The service was great, the staff super friendly, & we didn't wait long. Overall, another lovely experience at Chez Téta.
Café de quartier qui mérite un arrêt pour un diner. Plusieurs mets simple qui nous emmènent au Liban. Le personnel est sympathique quoique moins attentionné lorsque le café est rempli. Le service est rapide . Demandez des suggestions maison on vous guidera . Je vous recommande les manouches maison typique libanaise. Le gros four dans la cuisine est directement importé du Liban . On doit essaye
Téta 💚
Un gros coup de coeur depuis leur arrivée dans le quartier.
La nourriture est excellente & le personnel est tout simplement adorable. Leurs boissons sont géniales (mention spéciale au latté à
la halva & à celui à la cardamome).
C'est un lieu parfait autant pour le lunch, le brunch, le petit déjeuner ou une pause café.
Ils ont une super terrasse l'été mais l'intérieur du café est géniale aussi donc on adore y aller toutes saisons confondues.
Ca marche aussi très bien en take out.
Accessible en poussette.
Le SEUL aspect'négatif' : ils sont victimes de leur succès 🥰 (n'y allez pas à midi le weekend si vous n'aimez pas attendre).
Excellente ambiance, excellent service & excellents cafés & nourriture. Le latté avoine à la cardamome, la limonade maison & la manouche furent délicieux. Il y a tant d'autres choses du menu à essayer. Nous reviendrons assurément. Merci !

Un véritable coup de coeur 😍 ❤? Terrasse magnifique, déco pleine de charme, plats savoureux & service attentionné, minutieux & très professionnel. On se sent transporté au Liban, surtout avec la voix de Fayrouz en fond. Merci à toute l'équipe, continuez avec cette belle qualité . Gardez toujours la qualité sur votre personnel.
Merci.
I wanted to try chez teta for so long & i am so glad i did ! I tried the dip platter & the rose latte, the both looks soooo pretty & taste amazing. The staff were very nice & helpful, they have a cute terasse & even a small shop, will come back for sure!!
