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.
Un resto ou l'on partage ses choix & ou il est préférable d'y aller en groupe. Le service est impeccable & la nourriture y est excellente. Les prix sont très élevés, mais ce n'est pas une surprise, on n'a qu'a voir le menu avant d'y aller! Nous étions pas a la meilleure table, près de la cuisine & proche d'un moteur de ventilation assez bruyant. La table était trop grande pour notre groupe & nous étions loin l'un de l'autre dans un resto bondé & bruyant. Ce ne fut pas l'expérience escomptée pour une soirée conviviale. Pas l'endroit que je recommande pour une soirée tranquille en couple, à moins de manger a la terrasse que nous n'avons jamais essayer.
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 !

Un des meilleurs restaurants de Montréal. Ce fût une expérience extraordinaire du début à la fin. Maintenant dans notre top 3 de restaurant. Que ce soit au niveau du service ou de la nourriture, tout était impeccable. 10/10 je recommande de
Tonight was a wonderful birthday experience at Damas!
Everything was exceptional-from the service to the food. Our server, Nick, was amazing & made the night feel special. He surprised me with a heavenly piece of baklava topped with a candle, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The seabass was bursting with flavor, & the filet mignon was cooked to perfection. The drinks were fantastic too-especially the vibrant green one Nick recommended (a great choice!).
Thank you, Damas, for making my birthday so memorable. We'll definitely be back & highly recommend this place to everyone!
Finally trying Damas, the famous upscale Syrian restaurant in Montreal! I've heard about this place since I was still at McGill, but unfortunately never had the chance to try. I was surprised to see how big the restaurant was; it seemed to span the entire block, & seemed like it took up the space of three restaurants.
While the taste was good, I didn't think it was anything spectacular; nothing tasted elevated or luxurious. It was overpriced & tasting menu items were simply olives or salads or just something small. I wouldn't recommend this place simply because of the price.
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.

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.
I'm honestly wowwwed!!! We took the tasting menu with the Mediterranean wine pairing. I am completely impressed with the quality & quantity of food, as well as the wine pairings. You have a lot more than you pay for. Our waiter Patrick & our sommelier John (which is very knowledgeable) were simply amazing. Their service is on point, professional, attentive to details, & just enjoyable. I will definitely recommend & come back without hesitation. Thank you for this beautiful experience!!
One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Damas truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top restaurants in the city. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm & inviting-elegant without being pretentious. The service was attentive & thoughtful, making us feel genuinely cared for throughout the meal.
The food? Exceptional. The variety & freshness of the dips, the perfectly grilled octopus, the tender & flavorful shish taouk chicken-all served with warm, fluffy pitas that we couldn't get enough of. Every bite was rich with bold, balanced flavors that spoke to the quality & authenticity of the cuisine.
It's no surprise this place is so highly rated. I'm beyond impressed & would recommend Damas to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

My dinner at Damas was the best fine dining experience I've had in recent memory. I visited on a trip from NYC. The service was attentive & knowledgeable. It was at the quality of Michelin-starred restaurants that I've been to. The Syrian cuisine was delicious & hearty. Our server recommended a prix-fixe CA$ 120 option, which in hindsight would have been ample for 2 people. But we had à la carte options. The salad & moudjarra was especially memorable as was the lamb main course. I hope to come back the next time I'm in town.
It was a consensus amongst the 4 of us from out of town that dined at this highly recommended restaurant last night, that this was not just a meal, this was an experience. One of the BEST meals we have had...ever. 2 cousins, both saying there is no way you can match our Grandmother's cooking, & both from food service backgrounds agreed that it was one of the most memorable food experiences. Ever. From the impeccable service to the meal suggestions to the food, we are still full, happy & talking about when we will come back next! Worth the flight to Montreal
Nous sommes allés pour la première fois au Damas pour mon anniversaire. La bouffe était excellente. Je dirais que c'est le meilleur resto de ma vie . Nous avons été servie par Karel qui a été parfaite & qui nous a recommandé & guidé notre menu! C'était parfait! Merci beaucoup nous y retournerons.

Great Mediterranean spot for a fancy dinner date! The ambiance & service were amazing. Strongly recommend the hummus shawarma (with lamb) & shish taouk.
this place is most definitely overhyped, now the food is good but the price point is not justifiable & it didnt feel like authentic arabic food felt more like fusion. Would highly recommend the cheese puffs & the mouhamara, they give you unlimited fresh pita which is nice, service is very good, its a big restaurant with alot of room & is kid friendly, no parking though
Expérience incroyable! La nourriture est exceptionnelle, je recommande le menu dégustation avec l'accord mets & vins, ça en vaut vraiment le prix. Service plus que parfait de la part de notre serveuse Shannon & du sommelier Johnny. Je recommande +++
