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.
En quelques mots: je suis exigent quand je vais au restaurant & ce que je peux vous dire au niveau de la qualité, la fraîcheur, les portions & le goût, vraiment exceptionnelle. On peut gouter tous les épices & ingrédients car la préparation des plats & bien équilibrée. Une vrai délice. Le service incroyable tout le personnel s'investi à 100% pour que vous soyez conquis lors de cotre visite.
As a Lebanese person, I honestly feel this place is overrated. We were a group of six & we all agreed the food wasn't good, it was missing a lot of things in terms of flavor & authenticity. It's not terrible, but definitely not a place we'd come back to. Non-Arabs might like it because they don't have anything to compare it with.
Un gros bof. Ceux qui mettent 4 5 étoiles ne doivent pas manger des plats d autre culture très souvent. Ls viande était sec. Petite portion. Le serveur principal semblait ne pas du tout aimer ma femme pour aucune raison , il a été bête & froid. Très déçu de cet endroit.
À éviter !

My favourite restaurant in Montreal, Lebanese food made with lots of love. I come here at least once a month. The kebbeh karaz & the cheese roll & the batata harra & the Kebbeh nayeh are to die for they also serve arak, very cozy vibe with some Lebanese decor. Really one of the gems of Montreal.
I was expecting more, but this place is mediocre. The food was okay, the atmosphere was okay, the service was okay. The prices didn't justify for what was presented to us that night.
J'aime beaucoup ce restaurant, la carte est tres belle beaucoup de bon choix,
L'agneau est super bon, large choix de boissons
Je recommande fortement & je reviens
Kaza Maza is one of those rare restaurants that manages to feel both welcoming & exciting the moment you step inside. Located right on Parc Avenue, it offers a warm, inviting space that immediately sets the stage for a memorable meal. The atmosphere is relaxed & friendly, making it an ideal place to gather with friends or family, & the cozy little terrace is a real bonus when the weather is nice.
The food is the star here. Kaza Maza serves a wonderful variety of Middle Eastern dishes that are clearly prepared with care & fresh ingredients. The menu is built for sharing, which is perfect if you love sampling a bit of everything. From vibrant mezze plates to richly spiced mains, every dish bursts with authentic flavor & thoughtful seasoning. It's the kind of food that encourages conversation as you pass plates around the table, making it as social as it is delicious.
Prices are very reasonable for the quality & variety you get, & the service strikes just the right balance-attentive without ever being pushy. Whether you're already a fan of Middle Eastern cuisine or simply curious to try something new, Kaza Maza is a must-visit. It's the kind of restaurant you'll want to return to again & again.
La cuisine libanaise est délicieuse ! La nourriture est exquise, le service est charmant & le décor est très agréable, rappelant une maison libanaise traditionnelle. Il est conseillé de réserver pour s'assurer d'avoir une place.
The food is excellent, a real pleasure. The waiters were available & knowledgeable & efficient....no....they did not attempt to be our best friend like so many that feel we need to be buddies. The place was rocking with people enjoying themselves...& no annoying music to compete withe the conversation.
What a'bijou' on avenue du Park!
Food is so excellent, tasty, fills you with flavours & takes you places you never travelled before while sitting at the heart of Montreal. I went there unsure of what to expect & left with great memories & amazing taste!
Must visit & absolutely one of the icons of the street in the area.
