The reviews paint Gunaydin as a lively, welcoming hub of authentic Turkish flavors where breakfast and brunch are standout experiences, with fresh breads, mezes, ayran, jams, and a range of grilled meats that are described as tender, juicy, and well seasoned. Diners repeatedly praise generous portions, flavorful kebabs, Adana, kofta, and pide, and a warm, friendly staff with a comforting atmosphere, sometimes enhanced by Turkish music and elegant decor. The service is highlighted as attentive and the atmosphere makes guests feel at home. Many mention the Ramadan menu and breakfast as highlights, and the presentation and overall authenticity are commonly praised, with some calling it the best Turkish restaurant in Montreal and Canada by certain reviewers. A few notes of caveat include that prices can be high for the portions, there can be lines during peak hours, and some mornings or brunch options feel pricey or vary in traditional feel; reservations are advisable to avoid waits. Overall Gunaydin is presented as a top Turkish dining destination with consistent quality, strong hospitality, and a memorable ambiance.
Based on the rates I expected much more from this place. I thought I would taste different level of grilled meat. The service is great we were seated directly, the cups were not cleaned properly we asked to change all of them. The prices I found are a bit on the expensive side. Portions are okay, the food is moderate to me nothing special.
I might go back to try the brunch there they say it's much better.
Peace out.
Burada yemek yedik fakat adanayi hiç be?enmedim sertti kay?? gibiydi ve çok pahal?ydi fiyatlar? sofra restorant?n fiyatlar? daha ucuz ve kebablari daha güzel bence oray? denemelisiniz We ate here but I didn't like the Adana kebab at all; it was tough, like leather, & very expensive. Sofra Restaurant is cheaper & their kebabs are better, I think you should try there.
On a mangé ici, mais j'ai pas du tout aimé le kebab Adana ; il était dur comme du cuir & très cher. Le restaurant Sofra est moins cher & leurs kebabs sont meilleurs, je vous suggère d'y aller.
Très belle experience chez ce restaurant
De la bonne cuisine turque fine avec des plat savoureux
Un peu cher mais ca vaut le coup
Surtout le cadre est magnifique
& le service du personnel est agréable
Je suis très déçue par mes expériences répétées dans ce restaurant. Pourtant, je suis une cliente régulière & je paie toujours correctement, mais à chaque visite, je ressens clairement que je ne suis pas la bienvenue.
Lors de ma dernière visite, le restaurant était presque vide, avec plusieurs tables disponibles. J'étais accompagnée de mon fils & de ses trois amis pour célébrer son anniversaire. Malgré cela, l'accueil & surtout le non-verbal du personnel étaient très froids & peu accueillant - on sentait un malaise, comme si notre présence dérangeait.
On nous a finalement fait comprendre qu'il aurait fallu réserver, ce qui est difficile à accepter vu le nombre de places libres. Cette situation a rendu le moment désagréable, surtout pour les enfants qui étaient là pour célébrer une occasion spéciale.
C'est vraiment dommage, car ce genre d'expérience gâche complètement une sortie en famille. J'aurais dû écouter mon instinct plus tôt. Je n'y retournerai pas.
Impeccable! Mühte?em bi?ey! Loved everything about it.. beyti wasn't as expected because of the lava? bread, but the meat was perfect! They're extremely busy & yet they manage to serve you with a smiley on their face! Great service a bit too loud but great atmosphere, we will try breakfast next time!

Amazing turkish restaurant! The service is very friendly, food is delicious, & the restaurant is beautifully decorated. Would definitely come back again!
The best Turkish restaurant in Saint-Laurent with a great decor & an amazing staff ❤?❤? We made reservations & came during the Ramadan time in the evening & it was wonderful to see the restaurant fill up & everyone started getting served at sun down 😇😇 From the servers to the maître d' everyone was super welcoming, professional, & went out of the way to answer any questions about the food & how it will be served 🙏🙏 Since it was the Ramadan menu we started with dates & salad & mini cucumbers & then moved onto lentil soup with Turkish bread followed by cigar rolls 😇😇 Each bite was beyond delicious & we looked forward to the main meal during which we had the Adana Kebab as well as Brochette de Poulet & wow ❤?❤? Our full compliments to the chef who made such delicacies with so much attention & care 🙏🙏 Finally we ended with Turkish tea & dessert (Baklava) & loved it so much that we got a box of exquisite Turkish baklava to go 😇😇 Cannot recommend this 11/10 Turkish restaurant to anyone in Saint-Laurent & beyond who wants to try exquisite delicious food with the best attentive staff who are always on their feet giving the best customer service ❤?❤?
If you've never been to Turkey but dream of experiencing its authentic flavors & atmosphere, this restaurant is absolutely the place to go. I've tried many Turkish restaurants, & Günaydin is truly the one that stands out. The food is delicious, the vibes are fantastic, & the staff is incredibly kind & attentive.
I recently invited my colleagues for an Iftar there, & everyone loved the experience. They even mentioned they would definitely come back. Thank you to the whole team for your dedication & hospitality.
Such a great experience! Everything-from the service to the food & presentation-was just as good as what you'd find in Turkey.
The fresh, warm pide bread was amazing, & the Adana kebab, beyti kebab, & mixed grill were absolutely delicious. The appetizers they brought at the start were also fantastic.
Bayram Bey was incredibly welcoming, & the staff were all very friendly & smiling. We really enjoyed it & will definitely come back. Highly recommend!
