Was an absolute pleasure! Brought my son, were greeted warmly by the two lovely ladies who run the resto (& treat you like family in the best sense possible). If like us you appreciate & seek out an authentic setting & meals lovingly prepared, fresh, delicious, a cultural immersion, Kalabok is a must-visit. We were so full we had to bring home dessert, & also a cabbage pastry, warmed up in the oven that was so delicious we regretted not buying more. Thank you for a truly memorable evening!

This is the food that makes you weep from happiness! Extremely well balanced flavors, made with love & care. Honestly, when eating there, even alone, you'll get the sensation of dining with your entire family - all this dill, the cream, the kompot. Delicious. The place is run by two amazing women & I truly wish them all the best, because they managed to transport me to my childhood :)

Very beautiful experience! This Russian style family restaurant in Montreal is really something special. We were four person & we shared many different dishes & desserts. Everything was fresh, warm, & so tasty, like homemade food from family kitchen. Portions are good & the flavors are rich & comforting.

Staff was very nice & friendly, always smiling & checking on us, but not pushing. They explained the menu with patience & made us feel welcome from first minute. The place is small & cozy with a family feeling. You sit & relax like at home, enjoying tea & dessert.

I highly recommend this restaurant for family & friends, epecially ones looking for halal food. We will come back for sure!
