Overall, Café Chez Téta is celebrated for fresh Lebanese flavors, warm hospitality, and a welcoming vibe that feels like a home away from home. Reviews highlight handmade manouche, hummus, dips, and the cardamom or rose latte options, as well as fresh bread and house made pastries. While the atmosphere is praised as cozy with a bright terrace, a few notes mention busy weekend crowds causing short waits and occasional service gaps, and some delivery experiences were not perfect. Many describe it as one of Montreal's top Lebanese spots, great for brunch, lunch, or coffee, with popular items selling out and reservations not available, so plan accordingly.
Je recommande grandement l'endroit. Le personnel y est accueillant & attentionné. La nourriture est savoureuse & préparée avec des ingrédients frais. Chaque bouchée me transportait au Liban. Un énorme coup de coeur pour le latté cardamome, parfaitement balancé! Choukran à toute l'équipe! The staff is friendly & very kind. The manouché is delicious so is the fattoush. My highlight is the cardamom latte, perfectly balanced.
Cozy & very clean. Such great service. The Lebanese coffee with cardamom was everything my nostalgia wanted it to be. The rose & cardamom cake was as well. The Halva latte was so well balanced. If you don't know if you want sweet or savoury, As a snack, lunch, even breakfast, anything; The muhammara is the answer to all of those haha A must try. Everything is so flavourful I'm a fan of rose, especially here it's very every pallette friendly. Its delicate & floral & very present without being overwhelming or soapy. There's even a little section of specialty groceries, like pomegranate melasses etc that you pick up too. Will gladly come back anytime I'm in the city. Thanks for keeping memories alive through remembered foods.
The Lebanese coffee with cardamon is a unique experience that all should try! If you're not familiar with it, it's portioned very small, like espresso, though the flavor is a lot softer.
Excellent Lebanese cafe... great atmosphere for eating in, although I usually get a bunch of dips & manouche to take home. Friendly staff & really nice coffees, some with a Lebanese twist: cardamom lattes & coffee, halvah lattes, etc. Reliably good & reliably packed, but it usually doesn't take too long to be served.

Another solid neighbourhood spot that I discovered during COVID times - also randomly probably one of the best coffees in the city.
My usual order is Kafta & cheese topped with tomato mint & cucumber, sometimes I’ll do labneh on the side as a dipping sauce & it slaps every time. This used to come as a wrap but I actually prefer it done this way.
