St-Jacques Falafel is truly a gem! The highlight of the visit was the owner-hostess herself - such a warm, genuine person whose energy makes you instantly feel at home.

The service was attentive & welcoming, & I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the vegetarian options were. Honestly, I never thought veg dishes could be this flavorful & satisfying - each bite was fresh, vibrant, & full of taste.

If you're looking for amazing food paired with heartfelt hospitality, St-Jacques Falafel is the place. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

This place is spectacular! They offer authentic, delicious vegetarian Israeli food, tons of bakery options & grocery items. If this isn't enough, the people are some of the happiest & kindest people you'll meet anywhere, plus they have a few parking spots & a patio to enjoy your meal. Can't recommend Falafel St. Jacques enough! ❤?

this was truly the best falafel sandwich I have ever had. It was party in my mouth, bursting in flavor & truly sensational. Also I was stuffed after 1 sandwich, it was overfilling with goodness! I could barely finish it.
A true hidden gem. A must have, can't miss option.

Among all the falafels I've tried in Montreal, Falafel St-Jacques is really close to being the best one! The price-to-portion ratio is absolutely perfect-you always get what you're paying for, & the quality never disappoints.

What makes this place stand out even more is the incredible service. It doesn't matter who's helping or prepping your order; they're all so kind & friendly. Most of the time, they even throw in a little treat, which is such a nice touch!

I usually go for their falafel sandwiches (which are amazing), but I've also tried the falafel plate, which comes with a salad of your choice-& you can even pick 3 different salads to mix & match! It's such a great way to customize your meal. I've also tried their mushroom-based vegan chicken & vegan beef. Honestly, the vegan options are so impressive-even the texture is spot on!

If you're in the neighborhood & looking for a healthy, satisfying meal, Falafel St-Jacques is definitely the best option.
