Review Summary

Daou is frequently praised for its authentic, flavorful Lebanese comfort food and legendary garlic sauce, with many guests highlighting the fresh grilled dishes and welcoming, nostalgic atmosphere. While the service is consistently described as excellent and the portions are often generous, some visitors feel that the interior decor is dated and note that the pricing does not always align with the quality of certain dishes. Overall, it serves as a reliable neighborhood spot for traditional Middle Eastern cuisine, though experiences regarding the consistency of flavor and value can vary among diners.

Nous avons pris le plat d'assortiment de hors d'oeuvres froids & chauds. La nourriture était bonne, mais la portion ne valait pas définitivement pas 42$. Dans une assiette régulière, il y avait seulement 2 petits feuilletés, 1 falafel, 4 feuilles de vigne, avec de l'houmous & du baba ganoush.

Unfortunately, a very well-known restaurant for many years, the last few times we visited, the food was not fresh, Overpriced, the cook in the back was walking around with her gloves & touching everything in the dining room. We question whether or not she had changed her gloves in between mixing the salad. This will be our last visit.

Le restaurant propose une cuisine correcte, bien que les prix suggèrent une qualité supérieure. Le service est excellent, mais l'ambiance mérite d'être améliorée. Dans l'ensemble, c'est un bon endroit pour découvrir les saveurs libanaises, sans toutefois être exceptionnel.

decent spot if you're craving Lebanese food, though not the best Montreal has to offer. I went with a friend & we ordered the mixed grill plate along with Fattouch, Hummus, & Muhamara. The Fattouch was missing vinegar & pomegranate sauce, & the Muhamara was quite bland & lacked flavor. On the bright side, the grilled meats were well done & enjoyable. I have other go-to spots for Middle Eastern cuisine, so I wouldn't call this my favorite, but it's not a bad option.
