Went there for Sunday dinner. The service was excellent, professional, attentive & genuinely warm. Every dish was introduced with clear explanations, which made the whole experience feel thoughtful. Portions were generous. We didn't manage to finish everything, & that was after we forgot to order one more dish we originally planned.

The food was outstanding, rich in flavor, balanced, & simply delicious. A memorable meal overall.

This restaurant is a scam to be honest. We shared a hummus & a plate of grilled meats. The food was good, no problem, but really overpriced (come on $35 for 4 very small cups of hummus as appetizers???). Nothing amazing for a $125 meal… the portions were very small compared to the price we paid. It's just normal Syrian food, in a restaurant trying to be fancy… for the price paid, you better go somewhere else.

Incroyable expérience au restaurant Damas !
C'est tout simplement le meilleur restaurant à Montréal. Nous avons choisi le menu découverte & c'était une véritable explosion de saveurs - il y en avait tellement, & absolument tout était délicieux.

Notre serveur a été exceptionnel : de très bons conseils, des surprises tout au long du repas, & un service impeccable du début à la fin.

Une expérience culinaire mémorable… on revient dans un mois, c'est certain !

All the dishes here were excellent. A nice more upscale take on Syrian food. The dip trio was delicious along with the lamb dumplings & short rib.

You'll read a lot of mixed opinions about this restaurant, but honestly-aside from the price-don't pay attention to the noise. This is a high-end restaurant, & the quality & execution of the food are truly unique. I've tried many Lebanese & Syrian restaurants, & to this day, nothing beats Damas. The food is outstanding; it's one of the best restaurants in Montreal. The fact that reservations are so hard to get isn't hype-people genuinely love the food here.

If you're wondering what to wear, opt for something nice & elegant. I've been there on Mondays & even then you'll see corporate guests in suits & ties.

For first-timers, I highly recommend the tasting menu. You get a little bit of everything, & it's very filling. I've tried almost the entire menu, & honestly, every single dish is excellent.

Street parking is available, but there's no valet.
