A Middle Eastern restaurant specializing in cold and hot mezzes (small plates to share), kefta brochettes (minced lamb, nuts, onions and spices), various meat and poultry dishes as well as vegetarian specialties. Weekend brunch.
Kazamaza delivers authentic Lebanese and Middle Eastern cooking with generous portions and good value, featuring standout dishes like the lamb shank, hummus, muhammara, and kefta, all enjoyed in a warm, lively setting. The menu is varied and inclusive of vegetarian options, and the atmosphere feels welcoming and social, making it a popular spot for friends and families. Service is repeatedly praised for attentiveness and friendliness, though on busy nights the space can feel crowded and the noise level high. A few visits note inconsistent dishes or questions about gluten free options and pita quality, but most diners leave impressed and eager to return. Overall, Kazamaza is seen as a top choice in town for flavorful, well-prepared Lebanese fare with friendly service and a cozy vibe, and reservations are wise when it's busy.
Excellent resto! Je recommande vivement. Les serveurs sont hyper gentils & serviables. La bouffe est hyper bonne. L'ambiance & la deco sont wow. Un seul point c'est qu'on a oublié de me mettre dans ma boîte la sauce à lail que je n'avais pas terminé (qui est dailleurs trop bonne) alors que j'avais demandé de tout emporter ce que je n'avais pas pu finir.
One of the best Lebanese restaurants in town. Food was great especially Riach, grilled chicken, hummus & baba Ganouj, the service is great & the staff are very friendly. Cozy place & nice ambience

Kaza Maza est une excellente adresse pour déguster une cuisine libanaise savoureuse & authentique. Les plats sont délicieux, bien épicés & préparés avec soin. Le service est chaleureux & efficace, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus agréable. L'ambiance est conviviale & animée, bien que parfois un peu trop bruyante. Si vous cherchez un endroit où bien manger dans une atmosphère vivante, c'est une très bonne option !
Tried a lot of new items, everything was delicious. My favourites were the salad, hummus, & lamb shank. Table fav was the bbq shrimp! Everyone liked the fried cheese too , but it was very salty
One of my favourite middle eastern restaurants in the city. I recommend all my friends to eat here. My favourite dish was the lamb, tahini sauce with the rice. I still dream about that dish. Price for the dishes were reasonable. Service was very good & fast. Highly recommend if you love middle eastern food or you're just looking for something different to try.
Très belle découverte! Nous avons fait confiance à notre serveur pour notre sélection de plats & de vin. Tout était incroyablement savoureux & les portion étaient justes! En plus de bien connaître son menu & de faire d'excellents choix, notre serveur a été extrêmement aimable & serviable! Nous avons mangé sur la charmante petite terrasse & avons déjà hâte d'y retourner en saison froide pour profiter de l'ambiance chaleureuse de la salle à manger! Je recommande vivement!
C'était notre 2e expérience en quelques mois. Le plus difficile est de se restreindre dans les choix: tous les plats sont délicieux & les portions copieuses. L'ambiance est chaleureuse, décontractée, le service sympathique & on s'entend parler même si le restaurant est bondé. Enfin, côté prix, en ce qui me concerne c'est un excellent rapport qualité de l'expérience/prix. J'y retournerais certainement.
It was a greatly authentic food with very kind staff. I had a fantastic experience & recommend the experience. Mouhammara, shawarma hummus, kofta kebab & lamb shank were great !! Ahmed who served us was great!!

A true gem in the heart of Montreal. I feel like this place isn't raved about enough! Incredible isn't even the word to describe the quality of the menu, its flavours, its dishes- everything. I travel often to the Middle East & this is the closest thing to that. Hate to say it... it's even better!!!!!!!! I would give this place a 12/10. An absolute MUST-GO if you want to experience true high quality middle eastern dishes. Try the lamb hummus, the kibbeh & the Kefta Karaz. Literally there's nothing like it. We were 4 & the bill was 200$ & we ate literally everything!!!!!
Very good food. The fattouche salad has to be one of the best things I have ever eaten. The lamb was not good. But the hummus was flamboyant & out of this world. It is also EXTREMELY expensive. Since I can't give them a number rating, I am giving them a 93/100.
Was disappointed with this restaurant. The baba ghanoush was overpoweringly smokey - it's all we could taste, the minced lamb in the hummus was grisly & greasy & yet the meat was still dry & not well seasoned - just tasted gamey. The hummus itself tasted only of tahini, & the meat/Kefta Koraz was also dry. The fattoush was good but not great - too much pomegranate molasses & not enough lemon or fresh parsley/mint to be great. The baklava was maybe the best part but very small. Will not go back - the takeout counter at Adonis is far better...
