My I came here before proposing to my wife, we got the chef's tasting menu with the wine tasting. The experience was perfect, my now wife & I enjoyed our service, the dishes were all fantastic & our server was extremely passionate & knowledgeable. Would absolutely return any time I could. Bring your phone to the restroom for a selfie 🤳

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.

!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.

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!

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!

I had dinner at Heni a few weeks ago & what an incredible experience! You can go with the tasting menu or a la carte- we had the opportunity to try both sides & we absolutely loved both! Very vegetarian friendly & has a great set up for large group bookings. What makes Heni so special is the service- Noa & his team do an amazing job making your dinner absolutely unforgettable!

Disappointing Experience at Heni

I went to Heni with a large group, which meant we had to do the tasting menu. I'll be honest, I've never been a fan of tasting menus, they often miss the mark, & unfortunately, this one did too.

It started off okay, the first few bites had solid flavours & promise. But as the dishes kept coming, it just went downhill. The vine leaves & mushrooms on a stick were overcooked & completely flavourless. The portions were tiny, which I could overlook if the food blew me away, but it didn't.

The real disappointment came with the quail & side of kale & lentils. The quail was rubbery, bland, & had zero seasoning - honestly, it felt like it was just thrown on the plate. One of the pasta dishes was also way too salty, with what was supposed to be a beautiful egg yolk on top that was instead overcooked into a dry lump.

The only thing that saved the night a bit was the ice cream dessert - simple, but actually good. Unfortunately, the second dessert, a baklava, was just pure sugar with no real taste. It left me feeling like I needed to brush my teeth right after.

So while I get that this place gets glowing reviews, I can't follow the crowd on this one. For me, Heni was a complete miss.

That said, don't just take my word for it. Try it yourself & see. But if you're looking for high-end Mediterranean food done right, I'd say Garage Beirut or Shay Restaurant are much better options.

Had the first day of their new tasting menu & it was fantastic! I had the veg option & my table got the classic menu, & both were phenomenal. Amazing service from Kim & Noah. The wines were excellent quality, & came with in depth & meaningful stories.

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!
