Amazing experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The staff was very friendly shoukat & his team & attentive, & the service was fast. The atmosphere is clean & comfortable, perfect for family or friends. I will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!
Very delicious food & warm service. We ordered & Mix Family Meal for 2 for only $44+tax & we received a super generous portion of meat, salad, fries, homemade sesame bread & rice, together with hummus & garlic sauce. The meat was so tender & juicy, sesame bread was delicious & special, I have never seen such bread elsewhere. Even their hummus & garlic sauce were flavorful, not the regular grocery-bought sauce, but with very fresh garlic aroma. Salad was 100x times better than Boustan. Wish I was closer to them so I could pass by everyday for casual lunch. BTW the young man maintained the kitchen very well-organized an clean

We went to Damlaj yesterday after reading all the positive reviews, & it absolutely lived up to the hype. We ordered the Spécial Familiale Mixte, & everything was delicious, especially the kafta & taouk, which were cooked to perfection. The portions were generous & great for sharing.
The staff were very welcoming & friendly, which made the experience even better. We also loved the outdoor seating area, perfect for summer evenings.
Great food, great service, & a family-friendly setup. Highly recommend & would definitely go back!

The food of this restaurant is very delicious. We ordered chicken & rice, salad, fries & homemade bread. All items are fresh, excellent & very tasty. The chicken tasted very good & the homemade bread was hot & full of sesame. The chef who prepared the food is very polite & friendly. The environment of the restaurant is simple & reminiscent of family restaurants.
Great local grillade with amazing & cheap sandwiches ~$7-$8 each - chicken is juicy & well marinated, beef & kofta is juicy & tender! Favorite part is the freshly rolled & baked bread!
Fantastic outdoor seating. Family friendly too
Staff is very friendly.
This is our 2nd visit to Montreal & we come here before going to hotel!
