Initially thought the falafel plate was a little expensive. It is not. Insane amount of food for around $20, all of it fresh & flavourful. Highly recommended!!

Ordered on ubereats. They forgot part of my meal & gave me like 4 big pitas without the dip. The falafels were not great. They are too thick & don't taste fresh. This is for the saint Jacques location. Maybe the others are better. Disappointing & expensive.

The menu photos were misleading-the meal looked like it included fries, but fries had to be ordered separately. The fries were not fresh, & the falafel tasted more like spices than actual falafel. The cashier was friendly & polite, but the staff member handing out the food was unfriendly & seemed uninterested. Overall, it was not what I expected.

Always superb & fresh. A great selection of vegetarian meats. So many fresh salads to choose from too & all excellent. Knowledgeable about gluten free which is so reassuring. The staff & owner always make everyone feel welcome & seen.

Best falafel in town, no doubt about it!

Service is always so friendly & welcoming. Ingredients had the Falafel wrap all dressed with a Latke. The ingredients are all super fresh. Flavors mix perfectly. Just the right amount of spice. There's no better falafel in Montreal. I would definitely recommend!
