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 💦!
Authentic Lebanese recipes in a beautiful, cosy & like-hone atmosphere, with a welcoming & genuinely friendly Lebanese service. I highly recommend Chez Mon Grand Pere ... great food, wonderful vibe & excellent customer service.
'This Lebanese restaurant offers an amazing variety of traditional dishes like foul, fattet, & manakish. The food is incredibly delicious, bursting with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Lebanon. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Lebanese cuisine!'
I've been in Canada for 17 years & I have never had an authentic Lebanese meal like this. It's so tasty I dream about it sometime. The Foul, the eggs, the Manakesh, the tea. Everything was so tasty. They bring most of the ingredients from Lebanon which I believe making a huge difference. They also prepare & bake their own bread in house & it is way more tasty than the regular pita. Very highly recommended.

Wow! Just amazing! Very very close to Lebanon & I don't even exaggerate. It is hard to replicate the food level due to Canadian ingredients being awful in this country but this place certainly turns things around & makes you enjoy a traditional Lebanese Cuisine. Highly recommended to anyone for a great experience!
I think it was my imagination but after reading some other low reviews I know we're not the only ones that have been mistreated because of the way we look (some comments even say that if you're not Lebanese you're not welcome...after my visit I think that, sadly, it might be true). We were ignored for a long time & the food we got looked more like a rushed improvisation. I'm ok with dressing codes, but if they want women to be fully covered to be attended, a sign at the entrance might be very helpful. Terrible service, I'm definitely not going back.
One of the best breakfast spots in Montreal. The food is delicious & the place has a very genuine Lebanese vibe which is reflected in the taste. The service is amazing & the staff is very attentive. The portions are generous & I highly recommend zaatar manakish & the fatte. A must try!
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

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! 😉,
The best place to have a real authentic Lebanese breakfast! Everything is so tasty.
The food is amazzzing!! The place is cozy, feels like if you are in Beirut.
