Absolutely fantastic. The food was amazing, the service was on point, & the atmosphere was classy yet relaxed. We split 4 mezze & two main dishes between 4 people - it was just a little more than we could eat. Everything was delicious, but the standouts were the grilled octopus, the mouhammara, & the samak meshwi.

The food was extraordinary, every dish was full of flavour. The service was attentive, & friendly. On top of that, the place itself is perfect for a special night out

Overall, a great experience.

Had the fatoush, fish, octopus & a few other dishes with the family. Would've liked to try the tasting menu but that was too much food for us.

Everything was excellent & the service was top tier. Pricy, but a wonderful treat.

Insanely expensive for what it is. Don't get the'tasting menu' it's a scam. It's just a prix fixe family style menu & wildly overpriced.
$570 (incl tip) for 3 people 3 drinks. .
Salad, 2 dips, 2 cheese apps, 6 pieces of grilled chicken (nuggets) 3 pieces rack of lamb, ice cream dessert. Insane price for what it is.
Too many servers attending your table is annoying not nice. Go to Le Violon for a
beautiful meal & much less money.

An unforgettable culinary journey! Dining at Damas was like being transported to the heart of Syria. Every dish was bursting with exotic spices, vibrant flavors, & stunning presentation. The atmosphere was elegant yet welcoming, & the service was outstanding-from the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to help us lift our stroller into the restaurant. A truly thoughtful touch that set the tone for an amazing evening. One of Montreal's finest dining experiences-an absolute must-visit!

Service was excellent. Our server Emil was very knowledgeable & kind & provided great recommendations without us asking. We did the tasting menu & they were very accommodating of the vegetarian diet. My meal was just as elaborate & thoughtfully done as the meat dishes & they even accommodated the no egg requirement. That is usually not the case. Each course was excellent & better than the previous course…all up until the dessert. We had told them it was our anniversary & they brought a plate with a deconstructed panna cotta & lemon coolie of sorts, with some crushed up chocolate cookie on top. It was so basic & underwhelming compared to the other dishes in the tasting menu. It sounded like the desserts rotated so guess it wasn't our lucky day. Price is definitely on the higher end but I guess you're paying for the creativity & presentation. Overall an awesome meal & I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We visited Damas during our trip to Montreal.
The space & service are exquisite. We ordered the fattoush salad, shrimp in kataifi, fried kiffeh, & fillet mignon.

Very impressed with our experience. Service was friendly & felt genuine & effortless. Really good. Drinks & food were memorable. Space was beautiful. Would highly recommend.

Got the fattoush salad (good but not iconic like they would imply) , lamb kibbeh (loved this), lamb rack & chicken kebab both very good flavor. Excellent accompaniments. Great pitas.
