Kal was amazing & made the experience 10x better! Drinks were great & food as well!
Kal is the literally best you can get if you're coming for service & especially drinks. Wow is all I have to say !!
Whole experience was great! A bit of a wait even though we had a reservation but the staff were wonderful drinks & food was amazing & vibes were immaculate
We just stumbled on this place on a recent trip to Montreal. We started with two appetizers & a special that were outstanding. We were a bit let down with the main courses, however. There beat salad special was the best I have ever had. Very vegetarian friendly. The drinks were phenomenal as well. Rue (most likely misspelled), our server was very attentive & professional. The service all around was excellent.
Went there for a meeting with my business partner, we had the best middle Eastern meal we've had in a while. Seeing Lebanese & Syrian food in such an elevated but still rustic presentation was great. what was even better was the quality of the food. It was sublime. Service was great & the staff was lively & made us feel like family. We had drinks afterwards at the bar where I had my first ever tequila espresso martini. Its a must have.
Great addition to the old port. Nice vibe, delicious food, great drinks & friendly staff

For a new high end restaurant I expected more. Although the food was very flavourful - it was extremely overpriced. 24$ for two small burek cheese rolls? Charging 3$ extra for bread? No tea or have with dessert? Also being a new restaurant that doesn't have many tables- maybe having a manager, owner or chef come by the tables & checkin or ask for feedback or offer a round of drinks or dessert would have been a nice touch. It's too bad because the flavour is there & the place has potential.

1.Friendly waiter but 0 patience... less than 2mins after we sat in he started to ask us what we want to drink & it felt a rushed service.
2. Same thing for the payment...(mind that we spent almost 400$ on 1 bill) , bill was dropped at our table & we were having dicussions & not on a rush to pay...took him less than 1minute to come with the machine to pay.
4. Prices are overpriced .
5. Food feels fresh & good.
6. We got asked multiple times if we were done with our plates.
Nice experience overall but we feel like a number on a rush. Work on it !

Charming restaurant, with lovely decor - though the lights were quite bright for dinner. The food is the star of the show. Everything was delicious.
The service was very disappointing. When we arrived (table of 3) before even saying hello the staff began to remind us that we had toi hurry up because our table was needed in 1.5 hrs, another staff member said 2 hrs. They rushed us to order but then took forever to receive our food. The server continued to clear our tabler & plates without asking , when we ere not yet finished eating or drinking. We spent over 100$ a person & felt completely unwelcome & rushed the entire evening. It was both unprofessional & disappointing as the food is excellent but the service left s sour taste in our mouths.
