Garage Beirut receives broad praise for authentic Lebanese cuisine, with fresh, flavor-packed mezze and well executed grilled dishes like shish taouk, kebabs and kafta, along with crowd favorites such as hummus, baba ghannouj, labneh, muhammara and fattoush that many reviewers rate as standout or keeping a homey Beirut vibe. The atmosphere is described as cozy, intimate and welcoming, often compared to dining at a friend's house, and the service is usually friendly, attentive and efficient, though a few mentions of slow moments or crowded conditions exist. Reservations are commonly recommended because the space is small and usually busy, and some comments note that the restaurant can be pricey for portion sizes or that certain tasting plates feel expensive; a booking fee and occasional sound issues in a tight room are also cited by a minority. Overall Garage Beirut is regarded as one of the best Lebanese spots in the city, delivering authentic flavors, high quality ingredients and a memorable dining experience that keeps diners coming back.
Absolutely outstanding experience at Garage Beirut! The food is truly authentic, rich in flavour & beautifully prepared, easily one of the best Lebanese meals I've had in Montreal. The hospitality was equally impressive. Alex & Yousaf his team provided exceptional customer service, making us feel genuinely welcomed & well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Middle Eastern cuisine & a great dining experience in downtown Montreal.
Had been meaning to go here for years. It did not disappoint. Had the dip spread, kebabs & fattoush salad & a lemonade to drink. Everything was excellent, highly recommended!

Amazing spot for delicious Lebanese food. The staff are all so friendly & the cozy atmosphere is lovely. The food is so fresh & flavourful. Highly recommend!
This delicious restaurant was recommended to us by a friend, & we were so glad we ate there! The flavors & quality of the food was excellent. The service was great: fast, attentive, friendly. We loved the sample plates of Baba Ghannouj, Labneh, Muhammara, Hummus, Kibbeh, & the Kafta. It's a cozy setting for lunch. Highly recommended.

Garage Beirut is such a gem! 🇱🇧 The food is fresh, flavourful, & full of that homemade taste - every bite reminds me why I keep coming back. Their mezze is always generous & delicious, the grilled meats are perfectly seasoned, & the atmosphere feels warm & welcoming. Service is friendly & attentive every single time. Been a loyal customer for years - highly recommend if you want authentic Lebanese flavours done right!
Walked past this place 100 times always packed finally decided to go try it out & was super happy. Everything was 1010. Fattoush, Hummus, & the shish taouk were to die for. Had leftover too, lady was sweet & the atmosphere was small & cozy felt like eating in an aunties house:) highly highly recommend

Amazing food & great service. The space is small but anyone who complains about that is out of their mind. Smaller spaces provide more intimate settings & a personal experience. We ended up getting 4 orders of the mixed platter for 6 adults & 4 kids along with 2 orders of mixed samplers & nothing was left when we finished. Highly recommend.
My favorite Middle East restaurant in downtown. Sandwich is also available for takeout. Authentic Lebanese food served in casual atmosphere. Friendly service. Good food. Highly recommended.
Super amazing: service, atmosphere, the taste of authentic Lebanese. The simplicity of the place that makes this place like a palace. Really has the feeling of home in all aspects. Highly recommend.
Most authentic Lebanese restaurant in Montreal! I had the Dip Taster, which was delicious & beautifully presented. I particularly enjoyed the Muhammara dip. Excellent & very helpful service, in a warm & homey atmosphere. Highly recommend! I only wish that they made falafel sandwiches.
I recently dined at this wonderful Lebanese restaurant in Montreal & had an amazing experience. The atmosphere was cozy & inviting, but can be a bit noisy. The food was delicious, especially the hummus & fatoosh & baba ganouj. The staff were friendly & attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this gem for authentic Lebanese cuisine!
Food is amazing & they have lots of options. Very cute date spot, their patio is small, but very nice. Absolutely worth it. On the pricier side but highly recommend!
