About

Kazamaza centers its culinary identity on authentic Syrian and Lebanese traditions, emphasizing shared plates and bold, aromatic flavor profiles. The menu features a diverse selection of mezze, including smooth chickpea purées, smoky charred eggplant preparations, and vibrant herb-heavy salads. Grilled meat skewers serve as a cornerstone of the offerings, seasoned with regional spice blends and prepared over open flames. The interior design reflects an approachable, bustling atmosphere designed to accommodate social gatherings of various sizes. Fresh pita bread complements every dish, arriving warm and pillowy to facilitate traditional dipping techniques. This establishment maintains a focus on consistent execution of classic Middle Eastern recipes that prioritize quality ingredients. Diners find a straightforward presentation that highlights the complex textures and zesty lemon or garlic notes inherent in this specific regional cooking style.

Review Summary

KazaMaza is widely celebrated as a go-to destination for authentic, flavorful Middle Eastern cuisine in Montreal, offering a menu that excels in fresh ingredients and traditional recipes like lamb shanks, kefta karaz, and silky hummus. Many guests appreciate the warm, cozy atmosphere and the passion behind the food, noting that it provides excellent value for the quality and portions provided. While the majority of visitors leave highly satisfied and eager to return, some feedback points to challenges regarding noise levels in the compact dining area, occasional inconsistencies in service speed or attentiveness, and the necessity of booking in advance due to its popularity.

Potatoes under the Chicken were soaking in fat, not good. Batata was inconsistent, at the bottom very nice crispy & well done but on top wasn't cook enough & overall a bit cold. Meat balls were amazing & the rice as well very good. Hummus & tabouleh were also very good. Oh the pita could have been a bit warmed up, they were served in plastic bag, i would get the same at the store.

I have been to this restaurant many times in the past & generally had good experiences. I went back today for the first time in a year & the food was not good at all. The only decent plate was the Fattoush salad, all the other plates were not enjoyable. Something tasted very off with the hummus & meat appetizer , we couldn't even finish it. Very disappointed with the drop in the quality & taste of the food. I will sadly not be returning.

The food was fantastic - I had the hummus & the kefta méchoui & both were indescribably delicious. However, as a frequent solo diner, I have never been to a restaurant that has treated me as poorly as this. My waiter asked me if'no one else wanted to dine with me this evening' & told me that the food I ordered (two dishes) would be'far too much for someone like me.' I was ignored the entirety of my time here & had to get up to ask someone to bring me my addition. Keep this in mind if you are dining solo.

This was one my favourite places in Montreal, I went 2 days ago the food tasted really weird & not tasty at all like it used to be, meat wasn't good, hummus with meat wasn't good, something was wrong with either the meat or the seasoning used. I ordered Mawzat Friki & kafta karaz & both tasted equally bad. Very disappointed, I hope it was just a one bad experience. It wasn't just me my girlfriend felt the same too

The hummus with lamb & salads were excellent. Sausages & kofte were decent but not something I would come back for. The lamb chops werent too good, chewy fat & overcooked for my taste. Service was very good.

Their fattoush was one of the best I've ever had. I didn't even know salad could taste so good. Rakakat were also great. I liked the kafta. The lamb shank was good. Kibbe labniye was not for me. Moubammara was also awesome. My friends really loved the hummus kawarma but I thought it was okay. Very cute decor & I love the coke alternative products they have 🤘🤘🤘
