As a Vietnamese person, I can't claim to be an expert on authentic Lebanese food, especially since so many places offer fusion or Westernized versions.
I noticed some reviews mentioning the wait time, but I think we have become so accustomed to everything being fast that we sometimes forget quality food takes time. Especially flavourful, charcoal-grilled meat.
While waiting, we had the pleasure of speaking with Lebanese customers who came all the way from Brossard. They told us the food tasted very close to home, even to what they have eaten in Lebanon, which was very reassuring.
We ordered the musahab sandwich & the kebab sandwich. Both were delicious, although the musahab was my personal favourite. For anyone who enjoys spicy food, ask for the spicy sauce. It adds the perfect kick without overpowering the flavours.
We were there at 2:30 PM & it was busy. We left at 4:00 & the line got even longer. It is a little far from where I live, but honestly, this place is worth the detour.
Great job to the entire team!
Food is really great & authentic. However, the waiting time is really high…
If you're looking for authentic, delicious Lebanese food, this place is absolutely worth the visit. The sandwiches were packed with flavor, the meat was fresh & juicy, the hummus was excellent, & even the fries were seasoned perfectly. Everything tasted homemade & prepared with care.
One thing people need to understand before leaving a negative review: this restaurant is EXTREMELY busy, especially on weekends & during peak hours. Wait times of 20 to 40 minutes, & sometimes even longer, are completely normal when there's a lineup out the door. If you can clearly see dozens of people waiting ahead of you, simple math tells you the kitchen can only work so fast.
A longer wait does not mean the food is bad. In fact, it's often the opposite. Great restaurants attract crowds. Judging the quality of the food based solely on wait time isn't really fair, especially when the volume of customers is obvious from the moment you walk in.
The staff worked hard, the food was fantastic, & the restaurant was packed for a reason. Be patient, enjoy the experience, & you'll understand why so many people keep coming back. Highly recommended! 👌🔥🌯🇱🇧
Absolutely amazing experience! The charcoal chicken was perfectly grilled-juicy, flavorful, & cooked to perfection with that authentic smoky taste. The kebab was good but next time i will change the toppings.
Without a doubt one of the best places for charcoal chicken & kebabs. Highly recommended-we'll definitely be coming back!
