We were visiting Montreal for the weekend & many friends recommended Nora Gray. We got boxed out there & the Nora Gray maitre'd recommended Heni. So we ate at the bar at Heni. The experience was wonderful. We loved the Heni hostess/bartender/maitre'd. She recommended great wine. The food was delicious. The hummus & kale dip were yummy. The steak was particularly great - who knew blue cheese marinade could subtly shape flavor so nicely!! The spicy fish was not spicy but still tasty. A lovely evening that we won't forget.

Biggest problem was the portion size for price point. We spent close to $150 EACH for small side order of potatoes steak etc. Water was bottled & hot cheap. Incredibly staff team really cool decor lovely concept. Killer flavours! If you are veggie technically you could go here order fresh homemade delish pita & awesome side dips & spreads & save a fortune. A work in progress.

The food was amazing! We were lucky enough to be able to try the appetizers from the tasting menu, the pea tartelette was OUT of this world, & the steak aged with koji & served with their homemade hummus was mouth watering. Also Amber was so nice with us & made us feel like we were at home. 10/10 will definitely go back!

It is hard for me to start explaining how bad the food was! It's a restaurant that is not flexible when it comes to food allergies & tastes. The menu is highly limited. Either you pick pre-made degustation menu or u are left with 3 dishes… all in small portions! Oily, greasy & not sure how else to describe it… Pricy but not for a good reason. On the flip side, tea was good & the place is huge with nice decorations. Maybe if you're into calm atmosphere & good vibes, this is your place but do not count much on food!

Love this place! Service is excellent, both drinks & food. Also, if you like knowing the background of the wine &/or food they will gladly explain everything in detail. People complain about price & portion size but I left happy with both. I assume the problem is that most people assume middle eastern food should be inexpensive because we've been conditioned to think this.
