Reviews of Heni describe a creative, high-end dining experience with strong Middle Eastern and Mediterranean influences where the tasting menu and wine pairings are frequently highlighted as highlights and the service is consistently praised for knowledge, warmth and attentiveness. Diners consistently note beautiful presentation and thoughtfully crafted dishes that showcase bold flavors and careful use of local ingredients, with several meals praised for unique dips, breads and standout proteins. The atmosphere is generally described as inviting and stylish, though some find it loud or the temperature uncomfortable at times, and a few point to high prices or smaller portions as trade-offs. A recurring theme is the value of the overall experience, with many guests intending to return to explore more of the menu or to enjoy the basement cocktail bar and wine program. While opinions vary on particular courses, the overall takeaway is that Heni is a memorable, hospitality-forward destination that delivers exciting food and strong service with room for occasional inconsistency.
This a a great little neighbourhood favourite in Montréal, considered one of the best restaurants in the city. Middle Eastern fusion is the name of the game. We have the Valentine's Day tasting menu. It was fantastic. Good wine list. The relaxed atmosphere makes is perfect for a date, or family & friends.

We had their St Valentine's Day menu fixe with wine pairings. The sommelière was full of heart-really passionate about her work, dialled in tight, sweet as Manishevitz. Each dish evoked Lebanese cuisine with creativity & pluck. Decor was cozy, hip, elevated. A truly wonderful night. They knocked out the park. Recommend highly.
!0/10 experience at Heni, last Saturday night for our relationship anniversary. We took the tasting menu & everything was absolutely delicious. It is also a nice change from French or Italian cuisine (as much as I love them), with original pairings & wine from Lebanon (among other offers.)
Highly recommend, congratulations to the whole team.

Excellent service de la part de Jules! Chaque plat est super bien travaillé & délicieux. J'ai particulièrement aimé le dessert granité qui était parfair pour finir le repas!
I've honestly never eaten such a delicious & unique meal (we had the tasting menu). Artful & filling food. Completely unique wines & cocktails. Get there if you can!

Quelle belle découverte! Tout a été parfait: de l'accueil à la note, en passant par les succulents plats. Le service était impeccable & très amical, ce qui rend l'expérience encore meilleure : nous avons eu beaucoup d'explications sur les plats, ainsi que le concept du restaurant.
Nous avons pris le menu dégustation, quantité parfaite, belle présentation & très bon.
Merci!
Beaucoup trop bruyant même si on a demandé à la serveuse de faire réduire le volume de la musique... Bonne bouffe mais les accords de vin n'avaient pas rapport : ils sont'accordés' au service (léger, blanc, rouge, dessert) mais pas du tout aux plats.
Every dish feels meticulously crafted, beautiful presentation & full of layered flavors that shows real culinary vision. I've went for dinner or even just drinks & dessert & it's a great experience every single time!
One of the best spots in Montreal. I love to bring my out of town friends here when they visit. All of the staff are wonderful, the food is delicious, the cocktails are phenomenal. Highly recommend the tasting menu. Once you've finished your meal you have to check out the cocktail bar in the basement!
