My memorable first Iraqi meal. I normally don't order rice dishes & eat very small servings of rice, but I wanted to try the traditional Iraqi dishes. The lady allowed me to choose 3 different rice base for my plate, I think they were: Mandi, Quzi, Maqluba. I chose the smokey lamb to go on top.& I finished all of it, that's how good it was (coming from someone who avoids rice). The rice was moist, fluffy, tender & bursting with flavours from the cooked combination of aromatic spices, mingled with slivers of almonds & raisins, roasted vegetables & one of the dish had a distinct smokiness to it, as if it's been cooked on wooden fire on the sandy banks of a Mesopotamian river lined with palm trees. The meat was very tender, like it's been roasted then braised. 11/10 overall, highly recommended.

The food is incredibly fresh & tasty! I had maqluba with lamb, potato kibba, & tabbouleh. They even gave us dolma & different rice to try-everything was amazing. Warm welcome & excellent service!
Ouf! Je viens juste de finir mon gros & délicieux plat d'agneau accompagné de riz, que je déguste depuis 3 jours! Les portions généreuses de Feenah Takeout permettent pour les étudiants comme moi de se justifier d'aller manger au restaurant, ce qui est très apprécié. Franchement, coup de coeur pour la cuisine iraquienne suite à ma visite, grâce à l'excellent service de la gente dame qui m'a expliqué les différents plats (dont je regrette de n'avoir pas demandé le prénom). J'ai très hâte d'y retourner autant pour saluer cette femme sympathique que pour la nourriture & le café aromatisé unique en son genre qu'ils offrent aux clients! Ce genre de chouette petite place est ce qui me fait adorer mon quartier autant. Merci Feenah Takeout pour la super expérience!
P.S.: si j'enlève une étoile à l'atmosphère, ce n'est que pour refléter le fait que c'est un endroit de takeout (il y a des tables par contre), donc il faut que les clients potentiels sachent que s'ils cherchent un endroit à l'ambiance vraiment bien par exemple pour une date, & bien ce n'est peut-être pas exactement ce que vous cherchez. Mais c'est du takeout, ramassez vous un plat & allez le manger au parc, c'est aussi romantique ;)
If you're craving real Iraqi home cooking in Montreal, Feenah Takeout is the one. Tucked away in Ahuntsic, it's the only place I've come across serving up traditional, homestyle Iraqi meals… & you can truly taste the love in every bite.
It was my first time trying Iraqi food, & I was so pleasantly surprised. Feenah (which I believe is a type of hat in Iraq) is family-run, & that warmth comes through in everything, from the flavors to the portions to the service.
The rice & meat combos are where they shine.
• The spicy beef biryani was my personal favorite , deeply flavorful & perfectly seasoned.
• I had a rice dish with potato & chicken that was pure comfort.
• & the lamb? Fall-apart tender.
If you're in the neighborhood, don't sleep on this one. Feenah is the real deal: generous portions, rich flavors, & a soulful taste of Iraqi tradition you won't find anywhere else in the city.

I'm usually very picky about what I enjoy from take-out, but let me tell u guys, the food was incredible. The service was great, they took time to give us advice & explained what was every meal that we asked about. We took lamb, chicken, dolma, hummus, patato salad & a dozen of mixed delicacies & we enjoyed every piece of it. Each one had a distinct flavor & we enjoyed every one. Honestly, if you don't give it a try, you're missing out!
