It's my favorite Lebanese restaurant in town ! Located in the heart of the old port, both the terrace & the interior of the restaurant have a very a very beautiful design & esthetic (ideal for a date). Everything tastes fresh & authentic, & the positions are very generous. It is my second time going to this restaurant au both times the service was perfect & very efficient. I especially recommend this place for all the pistachio lovers out there, it's incorporated in many meals with great taste! I recommend trying the Muhammara, the beef eggplant appetizer & main course, along with their lamb shank!

La cuisine n'a rien de spécial. Très peu de choix, les plats manquent de saveur & les portions sont vraiment petites - j'ai été surpris par la quantité. Le serveur, un jeune homme, était sympathique, mais les autres membres du personnel, non. Le propriétaire ou le gérant (je ne sais pas exactement) était carrément arrogant. Il n'y avait aucune ambiance.

Franchement, 150$ pour ça, ce n'était pas mérité. En sortant, on avait encore faim 😏. Je n'y retournerai jamais & je ne le recommande pas. Shay est largement meilleur, autant pour le choix que pour le goût.

Had a beautiful patio dinner here one evening in June. Ordered a cocktail & two appetizers, which was more than enough food for one person. They also brought out complementary breadsticks with labneh & za'atar to accompany the cocktail, which was very kind.

Servers were lovely - attentive without being overbearing.

Restaurant serves higher-end food in a touristy part of town - the prices reflect that.

Overall, a great meal & I would definitely return again.

We had a glorious meal! Our server, Sophia, was helpful & fun & gave us good advice about the food. &, the food was exquisite - beautifully prepared, layers of delicious flavors in every dish, nicely served. I wish Hayat was near to my home, but it will just have to be a beacon in Montreal!

Great halal food in the old port, great views too & the restaurant is beautiful inside & nice terrace.
However the service could definitely improve. Food took a while to arrive, water wasn't filled often despite it being a hot day.

Staff wasn't that welcoming, id suggest more training for the servers about customer relation. A simple thank you good evening at the end of the dinner goes a long way.

We loved the service. We went 15 minutes before the kitchen closed, but they managed to serve quality food. Try the lamb! You won't regret. It was soft & tasty 🫠

Beetroot hummus was fresh & tasty (7.5/10). Soujouk stood out-flavorful & juicy (9/10). Short ribs were tender but needed more depth (7.5/10).
Service was a bit slow but friendly (7.5/10). Good value for Old Port (8/10).
Syrian ice cream was creamy & unique (8/10).
Definitely recommend
