Chez Wafi offers a different version of traditional baked goods with their authentic Lebanese pastries, such as, kaakeh; or rather, the Lebanese version of the well-known bagel. Open daily, it is the ideal spot for a sandwich and salad for lunch. Although 15 seats are available for those who prefer to eat on site, given the limited capacity Chez Wafi's is better suited for take-out.
Reviews describe Chez Wafi as a warm, welcoming spot with a cozy, homey atmosphere and a strong focus on fresh bread and breakfast options. Breakfast and kaak with cheese and zaatar are frequent highlights, with the bread praised as unique and the kaak tasting especially fresh. The menu includes vegetarian options, and the overall quality is consistently delicious, fresh, and satisfying, with omelettes and simple sides like olives receiving praise. Service is repeatedly noted as friendly and kind, contributing to a sense of being at home and sparking nostalgia for childhood memories in Lebanon. Many reviewers call it a hidden gem and one of their favorites in Montreal, praising the vibe, the staff, and the overall experience, while noting hours and that the store is not open all day.
Super beau resto libanais vraiment adorable. L'endroit est super propre, l'ambiance est chaleureuse & on s'y sent bien dès qu'on entre. Le kaak était délicieux, frais & parfaitement préparé. Une très belle découverte, j'y retournerai certainement !
One of the best family owned restaurant I know. The best food, the best hospitality & the best service. I highly recommend if you want to have a good time & enjoy your meal!

I'm a regular client at Chez Wafi & I keep coming back because the food is always delicious, fresh, & consistent. The service is friendly & the atmosphere feels like home. One of my favorite spots in Montreal!
Excellent quality. The Ka3keh was super fresh, & the omelette was amazing. The staff were super kind, & even gave us some fresh olives from Beirut on the side. Highly recommend!
The food was DELICIOUS. The bread was something i never saw before & it was amazing!!!( i took the crunchy thin bread) Me & my friends all ate there & we all loved it. The lady working there is also such an angel!Everything was amazing, i do not live anywhere near this place but if im ever back in the area i WILL go back to eat & say hi to the lady!!
