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!
Expensive but honestly sooo worth it. That chicken shawarma plate is so flavourful
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!
