The menu features a diverse selection of mezze, including smooth chickpea purées, smoky charred eggplant preparations, and vibrant herb-heavy salads.

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.

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.

Delicious food. The lamb shank dishes are amazing & the lamb simply falls off the bone. I did find the pita bead in the arrayes kefta to be a bit more burnt than necessary however.

The prices offer great value for the quality & portions you get. The mezzes are incredibly fresh & full of flavor, & the staff is exceptionally friendly & welcoming. Highly recommend!

Authentic, succulent, délicieux, abordable. J'ai retournerai, c'est sûr & j'en parle à tous sur mon expérience extraordinaire dans ce resto. L'agneau, une délice, le service impeccable & presque personnalisé. Un gros merci!

Belle découverte. Une cuisine fine, généreuse, & à un prix qui reste raisonnable pour Montréal. On sent qu'il y a du vrai savoir-faire derrière chaque plat; rien n'est laissé au hasard. Le genre d'endroit où on repart en se disant qu'on reviendra. & je reviendrai ;)

The portions are so small, & the food itself is below average. The stuffed vine leaves tasted like they came straight out of a ready-made supermarket can. On top of that, the restaurant was incredibly hot inside, the air conditioning was either broken or turned down way too low. The lighting is very dim throughout. Even worse, the path to the restroom was unclean, poorly maintained, & so poorly lit that it was actually hard to see where you were going.

Dined here 3 days in a row. That should tell you enough. The kafta karaz is phenomenal

Très bon restaurant moyen Oriental. Il vaut mieux réserver pour profiter de la cuisine pleine de ☀?.
Toujours bruyant malgré l'installation de modulateurs au plafond (& de la clim!)
