Review Summary

Reviews describe Falafel St. Jacques as a standout for vegetarians and meat eaters alike, with the Lachine location noted for a welcoming atmosphere and comfortable seating. The food is consistently praised for freshness, bold flavor, and a well crafted texture, especially the falafel which is described as freshly fried, light, crunchy on the outside and soft inside, and the house-made pita that is fluffy and satisfying. A wide range of vegan and vegetarian options is highlighted, including plant-based proteins and vegan shawarma, with staff who are friendly, patient, and attentive, making guests feel well cared for. There is also mention of a mini store inside that adds to the experience. Comparison to other Middle Eastern spots often places Falafel St. Jacques at the top, with many calling it the best falafel in Montreal or North America. Value is a theme, with comments about good food at reasonable prices, though a few notes mention unclear pricing on pre-made counter items and labeling on containers. The overall impression is one of genuine hospitality, flavorful plant-forward fare, and a sense of being storytellers of spice and soul.

Absolutely loved this bakery! Everything was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully made, you'd never guess it was vegan unless you were told. The pastries were perfectly balanced (not too sweet), & the variety was impressive. The staff were incredibly friendly, patient, & happy to explain ingredients or make recommendations, which made the experience even better. You can really tell they care about both the food & the customers. I'll definitely be coming back & recommending this place to everyone! The vegan ones are super delicious too! The lady was very friendly & welcoming.

Le buffet est très variée & appétissant. Plusieurs sortes de salades colorées.

En tant que végane depuis plusieurs années, j'étais choyée de voir toutes les options véganes (boeuf & poulet à base de shiitake, falafels, etc)

L'employé ne parle pas français mais une chance pour moi je suis bilingue, il a été super gentil & m'a offert de gouter aux viandes végé pour m'aider à faire un choix. J'ai pris un pita au poulet général tao végan avec toutes les garnitures & j'ai bien aimé.

Seul bémol, les prix des plats déjà préparé du comptoir à emporter & du congélateur ne sont pas marqués, donc on fait le saut une fois à la caisse car ils ne sont pas donné. Aussi les ingrédients ne sont pas inscrits sur chaque contenant donc malcommode une fois rendue à la maison.

En sommes, je recommande grandement!

This was the BEST most delicious sandwich EVER! We both had the Shishtaouk Trio as it was highly recommended for our first visit here. The quality of all the food & flavors were excellent! The house made fluffy pita?? So AMAZING!! The LOVE put into this plant based food speaks to the love of cruelty free living! They say at Falafel St. Jacques,'we're storytellers of spice & soul' & that sums up the joy this beautiful restaurant radiates!!! Wonderful experience! Merci beaucoup!! Peace + Love ☮? ❤?🌱 #vegan

Vegan place; signature items, falafels are worth having, fresh. Also, dessert options are there; though I only tried falafel & shawarma sandwiches, & they are good, filling, & worth the amount: 9.99 for Falafel sandwich.
