Delicious food, amazing service, & extremely friendly people. Highly recommend their Samsa & Pelmeni, & don't forget to try their refreshing Compot drink. All their food is freshly handmade, even the dessert cakes.
Two ladies with the best food, the best service, the best hospitality, cleanliness, & attention to every detail. We ordered a little bit of everything--bortsh soup, both the beef & spinach/feta samsa (which came with a delicious salsa/sauce), belyash, & manti--all the food was halal & made from scratch, & with lots of love--& it shows. There was a mutton soup that wasn't on the menu which they suggested & even provided a generous free sample to taste, & my husband & I loved it! We ended our meal with a honey cake (also gifted generously), & it was perfect. These ladies deserve nothing but the best & I can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for your hospitality, generosity, & the food that comes from the heart ❤?
C'était comme si j'étais rentrée à la maison 🥰
Un grand merci pour les délicieux varenyky à la pomme de terre & le compot à la cerise 🤤

J'ai découvert une culture culinaire nouvelle pour moi & vraiment délicieuse, j'ai pris une soupe'chorba' avec la viande d'agneau que j'ai adoré 🤤 & le personnel est vraiment accueillant, chaleureux & attentionné aux désirs des clients, je le recommande vivement, & même ils m'ont offert un thé. Merci encore.

The food is Halal! We tried 5 plates from the menu & none of them disappointed us. The two ladies who served us were the sweetest! They kept asking us if we needed anything & delivered our food in the perfect order. We finally had some tea & yummy desserts, all which were also prepared by them. One of the ladies even insisted that we try one of the cakes because she grew the berries on top herself 😋 & she was absolutely right; it was so good! Highly recommend this place! Best choice to try Halal Slavic food😍
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!
This restaurant is amazing! Very delicious home made food. Everything I tried was original & high quality. & the owners are kind & friendly people. I will definitely keep coming here again & will recommend it to all my friends.
