We are a culinary one-stop shop for hearty sandwiches and specialty dishes that can be enjoyed whenever and wherever you want. The concept was inspired by our parent restaurant—the award-winning Restaurant Damas—but with a twist.
Overall, Folfol receives praise for fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and generous portions, with standout items like shawarma, falafel, hummus and fattoush, and careful packaging that makes takeout easy. The service is described as friendly, fast and professional, and many reviews note that dishes feel prepared with care and love, even for takeaway; strong quality and reliable packaging meet expectations. A few notes mention high prices or occasional inconsistencies such as cold chicken or changes to recipes, but the overall sentiment is that Folfol delivers tasty Syrian-inspired dishes and many reviewers would return or recommend it.
Will unfortunately never return. Chicken sandwiches were not good (chicken seemed ok but the sauce had a weird taste).
The fattouche was not very tasty.
The floor is extremely dirty especially at the far left in the customer area (definitely floors never scrubbed).
The young guy at the cash was really nice but the girl was quite rude.
I am so disappointed in folfol. I ordered yesterday fattoush, mtabbal & chicken sandwich. The sandwich was good but small. The mtabbal portion is getting smaller & smaller with time. & the fattoush, which is usually my favorite plate from folfol, was so disappointing: absolutely no herbs, just a couple of mint leaves (no parlsey, no ba2leh). & a ridicolously small amount of grilled bread to go on top. Not sure if it is my bad luck or the quality of the food is dropping. I am hoping it is just a fluke…

Disgusting! My daughter ordered sandwiches for us & they were dry with no veggies -- just chicken, some crappy flavourless sauce & a pickle. We couldn't even eat them. Awful! What a scam!
Unfortunately i didn't take photos of the place or food...
I ordered 2 sandwiches 1 chicken & 1 beef shawarma.
The prices are a little bit expensive (20$/sandwich) but you pay for quality ingredients & nice syrian flavorful sandwiches.
I would go again & recommend eating there as the average cost of a sandwich in the city of montreal is 15$ & for 5$ more you have a big & really tasty one.
Simply the best take out restaurant in Montreal! The entire menu is delicious, fresh & well prepared. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable & helpful with recommendations. I really enjoy how fast their service is. They have the best chicken or lamb sandwiches, prepared fresh in just 5 minutes. They specialize in prepared Syrian dishes that you pick up & cook at home, in about 15 minutes, very easy & convenient. I strongly recommend!
We got dinner delivered from here. Everything was carefully packaged, with attention to detail to ensure the food was the best it could be once it was eaten (e.g. the fattoush had separate components to be mixed at home). Overall the food was delicious. The lamb was super soft & tender. The spinach pressed saj was another highlight. As were the chicken shawarma & mutabul betterave. It's quite expensive, but I would eat here again for a special occasion.
Excellent food, quality ingredients, attention to detail & great execution. I had the crispy chicken burger which was quite original with the garnishes, perfectly seasoned, still crispy & warm & not messy despite having ordered delivery. I also had the zaatar fries, Aleppo chili sauce & a box of baklava. The portions are generous & I find that the quality definitely justifies the price. Good job guys, keep it up ! P.s. : after having had a wonderful dining experience at Damas Restaurant, I was eager to try Folfol, which did not disappoint.
We ordered twice the chicken shawarma saj & french fries, loved both times. Shawarma is big & the fries portion was huge. It was the most delicious shawarma I've tried, loved it.
Just dove into a Syrian culinary adventure with Folfol By Damas. Ordered the Chicken Shawarma Saj (aka marinated chicken all cozied up with pickles & garlic mayo - because who wouldn't want to find that in a wrap?) & the Lamb Shawarma Saj (marinated lamb leg doing the tango with Biwaz, pickles, Tahini sauce, & pomegranate molasses - a flavor party I wasn't ready for but absolutely needed). Washed it all down with a fine Shawbridge beer because, well, balance. 🍺 #CulinaryExpedition #BalancedDietMeansBeerRight?

Food is good but RIDICULOUSLY small portion sizes for the price. The shawarma plate only had 3 slices of potatoes & we received only 2 small pita bread... This meal was not worth the 160$ we paid for. The fresh foods (beet mutabbal dip & fried cheese borek) were very good. The foods to reheat (chicken shawarma & kibbeh) were no longer freshly made as before but stored sous-vide, & were dry & lacking flavour. We had amazing takeout from Damas before (prior to Folfol) & we are very disappointed.
Just went & bought 2 saj chicken shawarma, 1 cheese borek, hummous & a drink. I have to say that the taste was just ok for the sandwich: too many spices & it's overpowering compared to other chicken shawarma sandwiches i've had elsewhere. Would i go back no.
Absolutely thrilled that I disregarded the negative reviews & took the plunge with FolFol for my inaugural order which I don't regret at all! Opted for the lamb & chicken shawarma saj, & hands down, this is by faaaaar the finest shawarma I've had here in Montreal at least for the last decade! The hummus & mutabbal are out of this world! & the Yalanji was a delectable delight. The mixed baklava was a symphony of flavors with each bite. Yummy 😋 Of course, this isn't your run-of-the-mill Shami restaurant dishing out hefty, flavorless servings to stuff your stomach with spice. No, it's a culinary haven that leaves your stomach content, not overstuffed, & beckons all your taste buds to revel in their full glory. A++ recommendation for fellow food enthusiasts. Cheers!
