Chez Mon Grand père, ce restaurant propose une cuisine libanaise authentique et conviviale, et les avis convergent pour souligner une atmosphère chaleureuse et familiale, des plats généreux et des saveurs qui transportent au Liban, avec un accent sur le pain maison et les sandwichs pita qui constituent souvent le cœur de l'expérience. Les plats vedettes incluent le mélange de mezze et la salade Fatoush, le Manakish garni de fromage et de zaatar, le Fatteh avec viande et des oeufs au sunnyside accompagnés d'un confit d'agneau, ainsi que les pitas de Shish Taouk et de Beef Shawarma, généralement décrits comme juteux, bien épicés et bien cuits. Dans les retours positifs, on parle d'un service chaleureux, d'un décor cosy et d'un rapport qualité-prix souvent favorable compte tenu des portions et de l'authenticité; plusieurs conviennent que les plats réservent des moments savoureux et une impression de voyage culinaire. Des réserves apparaissent toutefois sur le prix perçu comme élevé par rapport à certains plats, quelques expériences où le service ou l'organisation a manqué et des remarques sur des détails d'hygiène ou l'affluence rendant l'attente plus longue. Dans l'ensemble, l'expérience est présentée comme une découverte authentique et chaleureuse, digne d'être revisité pour explorer d'autres spécialités.
A Morning Feast at Chez Mon Grand-père @beitjeddi_mtl. ?If you're looking for a breakfast that feels like a warm hug from a Lebanese grandfather you never knew you had, Chez Mon Grand-père in Montreal is the spot. I'm calling it now: this was easily the best breakfast I've had in a long time. Every dish felt intentional, fresh, & deeply rooted in tradition.
?
?Mixed Maza & Fatoush Salad: We started with the Mixed Maza, which offered a perfect tour of textures & dips. Pairing it with the Fatoush Salad was a pro move the salad was crisp, bright, & had that essential sumac punch & crunch that clears the palate for the heavier hitters.
?Manakish (Cheese & Zaatar): You can't go to a place like this & skip the Manakish. The dough was pillowy & charred in all the right places. The earthy, herbal zaatar balanced perfectly against the salty, melty cheese.
?Fatteh with Meat: This was pure comfort food. The combination of warm chickpeas, creamy tahini-yogurt, & toasted pine nuts topped with savory meat is a texture play that they execute flawlessly here.
?Sunnyside Up Eggs with Confit Lamb: This dish is a game-changer. The eggs were perfectly runny, but the confit lamb stole the show-tender, rich, & meltingly soft. It turns a standard breakfast into a gourmet experience.
?The Real MVPs:
?I need to take a second to talk about the pitas, because they were spectacular. Often, sandwiches are an afterthought at breakfast, but here, they might be the main event.
?Shish Taouk Pita: The chicken was incredibly juicy & marinated to perfection. It wasn't just'good' it was the kind of pita you think about three days later. The garlic sauce (toum) was bold without being overwhelming.
?Beef Shawarma Pita: This was a masterclass in spice & sear. The beef was tender & packed with that signature deep flavor you only get from high-quality shawarma.
This place was such a hidden gem, when we went it was empty & honestly I don't understand why the food was out of this world! Go show them some love & visit please! It's worth the trip it's FOODGASMIC CERTIFIED 💦!
Nourriture excellente, fraiche & portions généreuses. Nous y sommes allés pour le brunch & avons pris tabbouleh, hummus, fatteh, manakish & fattoush. Le seul point négatif est que lord de notre passage, le temps d'attente pour une table était de 1h30 & cela a ensuite pris 1h avant de recevoir nos plats. Notre brunch a donc duré 3h30-4h. Nous sommes passés plusieurs fois devant le restaurant depuis & cela semblait moins achalandé. (à noter que nous sommes passés quelques jours après la fin du Ramadan, ce qui peut expliquer l'achalandage)
We really enjoyed this place , it felt like home & the service was absolutely amazing , their manouche & fatoush are so tasty , my favorite was the fatteh, highly recommended
Great food with a varied menu, loved that the food is so flavorful. Absolutely loved the Tahini Hummus which was so creamy & delicious! The Lebanese Fatteh is a must as it is an absolutely amazing yogurt dip & highly addictive! The Lahm Ajin Manakish was my fave, the meat is perfectly seasoned & delicious & their pita are so fresh, warm, & pillowy bread. The best is to order a little bit of everything to try a variety of little dishes.
We had a late breakfast / brunch with French here - Food: the food was almost great. We had foul, hummus, Lebanese fatteh, sausage eggs & eggs with awarma Everything was great though the humus was not to our preference You receive fresh break, tea & a veggies platter with each order - Service: the staff are amazing, friendly & they take the time to describe the items & recommend things - Atmosphere : the restaurant was not busy when we stepped in & the service was fast. The interior is basic & homey with lots of Fairuz music
Un bon restaurant pour brunch . Les prix sont abordables. J'ai enlevé une étoile vu que le fatteh libanaise est différente à chaque fois .(texture set gout) Mais les manakish sont très très bonnes .

Great food, with many vegetarian & vegan options. I got a vegetarian omelette (egg), fresh zaatar bread, Msabbaha (partially crushed chickpeas with tahini), fatouche (lettuce, tomato, cucumber salad with fried pita breads), fatteh (no yougourt, crunchy pita, soft chickpeas, toasted nuts in tahini sauce.
What impressed me the most was their choice to promote Arabic (Syrian, Lebanese) cuisine using flags, it is so cute😊; it's a thoughtful touch tho.
I'm uncertain about their pricing strategy, but I have to admit it's quite expensive. While the Fatteh is undeniably delicious, I believe it should be priced more affordably for a single plate.
I'd recommend visiting, but be prepared for it not to be budget-friendly. So, make sure your wallet is ready before you go! 😉,
