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 is viewed as a bustling, welcoming spot for Lebanese and Middle Eastern flavors, offering generous portions, a wide mezze and main lineup, and solid value. The food is repeatedly praised for authenticity and bold spices, with standout dishes such as hummus, fattoush, baba ganoush, kafta, lamb shank, rekakat cheese rolls, and kebbeh; the cocktail list and Arak options also get mentions. The atmosphere is described as cozy and lively with warm decor, though it can be very noisy and seating tight when busy, and online reservations or table arrangements can be confusing. Service is often highlighted as fast, attentive and friendly, but a few experiences report slow or impersonal service and limited knowledge on dietary needs, plus occasional issues like cold pita or uneven portions and, in rare cases, hair in a glass. Despite these inconsistencies, the overall impression is a memorable, shareable dining experience with flavorful, well prepared food and good value that makes many diners eager to return.
Tout était excellent. Très content d'avoir fait cette belle découverte . La seul chose que vous pourriez changer est de diminuer le prix de vos bouteille de vin .Car à p^lus de deux fois le prix de la SAQ ...C'est un peut trop cher . Un grand merci à notre serveuse pour son excellent service
Toujours très agréable une soirée chez Kazamaza.
Nous ne sommes jamais déçus. La nourriture est excellente, le personnel attentionné & il y a toujours une ambiance festive.
Mes invités ont été ravis.

Excellente cuisine. Très très bon. Ma seule critique serait que j'ai trouvé la salle trop bruyante. Par contre, cela ne m'empêchera pas d'y retourner. Le service était aussi bien efficace & sympathique.

The food was delicious as always but we weren't told that parties of 2 only get the table for 1 hour & a half.
Between placing the order & not having to inhale our food, we were done our meal & cocktails in just over an hour, we tried to order tea & dessert but were told it might not be a good Idea & we would have to drink it fast because we only are allowed to stay for an hour & a half total.
Super disappointing, we love the food here & were by no means holding the table excessively, so to be basically kicked out & feel like you need to rush to eat your food & get out really takes away from the experience & makes it feel unwelcoming, especially considering the short window considering time to be seated get your drinks , wait for food & then be able to eat it at a normal pace.
I fully understand it gets busy during peak times & they need to turn tables, but 1.5hours window & being made to feel like you can't order tea or dessert when time isn't even up yet is not acceptable.
A 2 hour window of time is much more reasonable especially considering this isn't a fast food restaurant. Additionally being told this upon reservation or at the beginning of the meal would have made more sense.
We've been here many times & never had this type of experience.
This restaurant serves amazing food but perhaps they should consider their approach to customer service as clients pay to eat in house instead of ordering not only for the food but for the experience & while the food was delicious as always the experience was pretty disappointing.
