Venez vous joindre à nous pour une soirée syrienne enchantée dans le cœur chic et gastronomique d'Outremont, sur l'avenue Van Horne. Au Restaurant Damas, un microcosme au confort unique vous accueillera avec des couleurs chaudes, des velours, du bois sculpté et des lumières multicolores.
Les avis présentent Damas comme une expérience culinaire montréalaise remarquable, réputée pour ses saveurs syriennes riches, son pain pita maison frais et ses mezzés généreux qui incluent des plats comme l'agneau, le poulpe, le fattoush et les kebabs, le menu dégustation et les accords mets et vins étant souvent mis en avant comme une expérience à ne pas manquer. L'ambiance est décrite comme chaleureuse, élégante et intime, et le service est généralement attentif et professionnel, avec un excellent programme de boissons en harmonie avec la cuisine. Certaines personnes remettent en question le rapport qualité-prix, notant des prix élevés et des portions variables, et quelques expériences mentionnent des retards ou des oublis en période d'affluence. Le brunch est également salué pour sa palette et sa fusion Est-Ouest, faisant de Damas une institution à Montréal pour ceux qui cherchent une expérience gastronomique mémorable ou à découvrir d'autres plats du menu.
We had a great evening at Damas Restaurant. The food was excellent. We ordered baba ghanoush & fattoush as appetizers, & filet mignon & a lamb dish for the main course - everything was delicious & perfectly cooked.
It was Yalda Night, an Iranian celebration of the longest night of the year, so we asked for a red drink to celebrate. They brought us a lovely red beverage, which made the evening even more special.
Highly recommended!
Just visiting Montreal & enjoyed my stay at Damas. I wanted to support Syrian fine dining cuisine experience as I have not experienced something like this in Toronto.
Pricey restaurant but honestly flavors & textures were incredible. My favorite was the lamb dumplings. Great fantastic service as well. Everything went very well together it was very intentional when preparing the meal & menus. Will definitely return when back in the city God willing!

My wife & I went here on our honeymoon & the tasting menu was one of the highlights of our entire trip. There was a lamb dish so good that it literally made me laugh with delight. The service was fantastic, the atmosphere was so lovely, the food was UNREAL. They've also got a lovely drink menu, & their mocktail options are just as tasty as their cocktails. If you're in Montreal this is a spot you should not miss.
Nous avons opté pour le menu dégustation & l'expérience a été exceptionnelle du début à la fin. Le service était attentif & chaleureux, avec des explications précises qui ajoutaient encore plus de valeur à chaque assiette. L'ambiance complète parfaitement l'expérience culinaire. Je recommande sans hésitation!
Une cuisine des plus savoureuses dans une ambiance remarquable & un service attentionnés. Merci pour ce merveilleux moment ! Chaudement reccomandé! Idéal pour se partager des plats à deux ou plusieurs.
Excellent food, but average at best atmosphere
& the decor is simple, busy & casual. The Location is Within the poor edge of Outremont, & the parking is very difficult
You come here just for the good food, not for the ambiance
this is not a luxurious elegant restaurant.

Je ne sais pas par où commencer tellement j'ai de bonnes choses à dire! Premièrement WOW! J'ai eu le privilège d'être présente au BRUNCH aujourd'hui pour l'anniversaire d'une grande amie à moi. J'ai été charmé par l'endroit avec une décoration sublime, une ambiance intime pour l'occasion mais surtout un service IMPECCABLE, le serveur était professionnel, il nous a fait d'excellentes recommandations! Je peux dire que nous avons été servis avec excellence. La nourriture? WOW WOW WOW! C'était d'une fraîcheur inouïe. Une belle découverte de saveurs & des présentations alléchante. J'ai adoré mon expérience & je recommande vivement ce restaurant. Réserve tôt pour des grand groupe ;-)
This is my favourite restaurant in Montreal. Whether it's for casual dinners or business meetings, I'm always able to impress my guest with their delicious food & great ambiance! The meat platter is always my go-to!
Visited Damas with high expectations, but left disappointed. Cold mezzas were decent, meat platter lacked flavor. Overpriced for the quality. Service was pleasant, & ambiance nice, but overall didn't live up to the hype
What an absolute gem of a place. We sat in the terrasse next to the heater. We had the makdous fattah (with lamb meat), appetizer mezza platter, shish taouk. Everything was on point & tasted freshly & authentic. The portions were generous. Service was great. It is the best kind of'fine dining' I would have hoped for. Beautiful.
I've had this restaurant on my radar for quite some time, so I came in with high expectations. While the overall experience was pleasant, the food itself fell a little short. The atmosphere is beautiful. Service was equally impressive. As for the food, we tried the salad, hummus shawarma, cheese kunafa, lamb kebab, & a cocktail. The lamb was the biggest disappointment-it came across as meat in an overly dominant tomato sauce, with little depth or seasoning. The meat itself was tender, but the dish was just lacking!! After the first bite, you could tell I was disappointed. Everything else we ordered was good. The flavors were there but nothing stood out for me. We paid about 250$ - At that price point, the food wasn't distinct enough to set this restaurant apart from more affordable options...
Tout était impeccable, je n'ai rien à dire à propos du service, de l'ambiance ou de la nourriture par contre j'ai trouvé que c'était excessivement cher pour ce qui nous est servi. Je recommande quand même de l'essayer une fois ça reste une très bonne adresse!
We went to Damas to celebrate our anniversary & it was such a wonderful experience. We chose the tasting menu, & I really appreciated how the staff explained each dish as it was served - it made the evening feel even more special.
The food was incredible. My absolute favorites were the lamb & the Crevettes Kunafa - both were packed with flavor & perfectly prepared.
The atmosphere is warm yet elegant, & the service was attentive without being overwhelming. Honestly, it was the perfect place for our celebration, & I'd go back without hesitation.

Wow everything was delicious here! The hummus shawarma dish was out of this world, & the lamb rack was so juicy. Also recommend the octopus & the fattoush salad. Vraiment excellent !
Everything was incredibly delicious! We chose the tasting menu. The items I preferred were : Kibbeh Nayeh (lamb tartare), Kunafah shrimp & lamb chops. The restaurant is beautiful & the staff, professional.
Un véritable feu d'artifice de couleurs, d'odeurs & de saveurs dans chaque plat, le tout dans une ambiance chaleureuse rehaussée d'un service sympathique & impeccable! Vivement la gastronomie syrienne!
From the moment we walked into Damas, we knew we were about to embark on something special-but nothing could have prepared us for just how exceptional the experience would be. We have tried the tasting menu & it was absolutely the perfect choice!
The ambiance is warm & enchanting, beautifully combining elegance with the rich cultural essence of Syria. The soft lighting, the detailed décor, & the welcoming atmosphere set the perfect stage for an evening to remember.
But let's talk about the food-because this is where Damas truly shines. Every single dish was a masterpiece, crafted with such depth, authenticity, & care that we felt transported to the heart of Damascus. From the tender, aromatic lamb dishes to the vibrant & perfectly balanced mezze, every bite told a story. The flavors were bold yet refined, traditional yet elevated, & undeniably delicious. You could taste the passion & heritage in every element of the meal.
Special thanks to Alexander who guided us through the menu & made us feel at home throughout the evening. His hospitality added a personal touch that elevated the experience from amazing to unforgettable.
Damas has truly mastered the art of Syrian cuisine, blending tradition with fine dining in a way that few can. We left feeling full, grateful, & already planning our next visit.
Thank you, Damas, for an extraordinary night of food, culture, & warmth. You've set the gold standard for Middle Eastern dining in Montreal.
