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.
Every 👏🏼 Single 👏🏼 Time 👏🏼 I come here; the food is incredible & the service is so kind, friendly & welcoming. The Bourekas, the salads & of course the mains are all delicious. This location is nice because there's lots of room to sit & eat, & there's an outdoor terrace when it isn't winter.
The absolute best food ever. I can eat here everyday of the week & still want it on that 8th day. I think the food is always amazing quality & the service is so friendly. Henok is always making my experience positive.
Service is so genuine & nice. He always makes us taste new flavors & he is so generous with the portion. Salads are fresh, bread is warm & fresh ! A must !!!
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.
