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!!

Shanny was so welcoming & had such great energy. It was our first time there, & we felt comfortable right away. She helped us choose, & we have zero regrets everything was really good. I definitely recommend this place & will come back without hesitation.

I went a few months ago.. the lady behind the counter was picking her nose, & then was serving food.

I had ordered my sandwich before hand, & the food was not good. The place is not clean, the food was dry. I dont recommend

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!

Apres 2 essais moi & ma femme avons essayé une bonne partie de leur menu du au fait que les assiettes ou trio on plus ou moins 3 a 8 choix voir plus.

Il y a certainement quelques une de bonnes mais rien qui en vos le prix qui est comme les autres commantraire le souligne un peu aléatoire & surélevé.

Les gens y parles français mais n'utilise que l'anglais. Cela me parais souvent offensant car le service manque en plus d'une bonne générosité de charisme & savoir vivre.

Par rapport à la nourriture je ne vous recommande pas particulièrement. J'ai été végétalien pendant 5 ans & je suis épicurien! J'ai un minimum de savoir faire en cuisine professionnel & je me pose de sérieuses question si ces personne goûte à leur propre recette! J'ai pris ce qu'il appelles hamburgers avec des frites. Il mon servis une galette ive sec & sans goût dans un pita remplis de comcombre tomate & humus. Je ne sais pas comment il on réussi mais je n'es jamais mangé quelque chose d'aussi amer & pourtant je raffole d'amertume! Je n'es pas eu de frite mes plutôt des tomate & choux de bruxel qui étais relativement bon.

Les desserts étique avec manque de clarté!
Vente de produit importé sans traduction ni anglais ni français qui semble d'origine de fruit exotique & tu paye un extra que ni même le serveur connais le prix & finalement ces du jus oasis à 7$ 250ml

Les salades sont bien trop froide & l'agencement des saveur & texture n'étais pas bon!

Ma femme & moi avons eu mal au ventre au moin 30 min après.

Sérieusement je me sent prank
