Main course food was amazing. Lentil soup is must try & its a sufficient amount. Mixed grill was great. lamb piece was very soft. I would give them 5 under food category but konafa was not done well. Just to mention that response of gentleman on reception/ order desk was not welcoming. Before food, attitude of reception person at counter matter a lot. Rest, if you are in Montreal, its a great food option.

Restaurant rapide turc. Un endroit authentique & sans prétention avec un menu de brochettes & de sandwich faits de pain maison. Tout était délicieux. Nous avons pris l'assiette de filet mignon & de brochettes à l'agneau. La soupe aux lentilles que nous voisins de tables mangeaient semblait aussi excellente.
