Overall, Falafel St-Jacques is seen as a standout vegetarian and Middle Eastern spot with fresh, flavorful falafel and a wide vegan friendly menu including shawarma, shish taouk, pitas and a bakery selection of desserts; portions are generous and many reviewers call it among the best falafel experiences in the area, with some even listing it as the best in Montreal; the service is repeatedly described as warm, friendly and attentive, creating a homey feel that encourages return visits; the atmosphere is casual and grab and go with limited seating, though parking can be challenging in busy times; while a few notes mention higher prices for the size or occasional takeout timing issues near closing, the overall impression emphasizes consistent freshness, variety and hospitality; the place is described as a hidden gem for authentic Israeli and Middle Eastern flavors, appealing to both vegans and non vegans and frequently recommended for visitors and locals alike.
Sandwicherie & traiteur tout végétarien, proposant de délicieux burgers, falafels, assiettes shawarmas & une sélection de viandes végétariennes dont poulet général tao, boeuf mongolien, poulet ananas; en plus de salades fraiches & davantage à la carte... J'aime beaucoup leur boeuf mongolien végétal & le poulet ananas végétal en assiette avec choix de salades & frites! Quelques tabourets à l'intérieur & quelques places à l'extérieur sur la petite terrasse en été. Sinon on prend pour emporter & on en profite en même temps pour faire laver sa voiture au lave-auto Elegant juste en face J'y retourne régulièrement! 👍
This is a family favourite take-out choice. We have also ordered food for large gathering & holidays & it is always yummy. Aside form the fantastic falafel sandwiches, they have some amazing vegetarian dishes, including a General Tao dish, fresh veggie salads & the best Thai eggplant salad I have ever had! A little hard to find but worth using your GPS to get there!
"Best falafel in Montreal". This is what I was told, & now I'm saying it, too. That's when you know! Trust me on this.. one bite & you'll know what I'm talking about! Oh.. & it's VEGAN! For all you vegan haters out there... I had no idea until I had it, & honestly, it doesn't even friggen matter... it's just delicious. Period.
Some of the best falafel you'll ever eat in Montreal. Wonderful staff & a pretty great atmosphere. Pricing isn't too expensive either so this is definitely a go to area to visit with friends or your family. (Not to mention the delicious 2$ hot chocolate)
