Kif Kif, a neighborhood restaurant brought to you by Executive Chef Dan Geltner is an exploration of refined Middle Eastern cuisine rooted in the depths of his grandma's recipe box. Our menu is a modern take on traditional Mediterranean fare that celebrates bold spices, fresh herbs, and local, seasonal produce. Kif Kif, restaurant de quartier imaginé par le chef Dan Geltner, vous invite à découvrir une cuisine raffinée du Moyen-Orient inspirée du précieux carnet de recettes de sa grand-mère. Notre carte revisite les classiques méditerranéens avec une touche contemporaine, célébrant les épices audacieuses, les herbes fraîches et les produits locaux et de saison.
Dans l'ensemble, les avis décrivent Kif Kif comme une adresse animée et chic, avec un service chaleureux et attentionné et une cuisine méditerranéenne et moyen-orientale bien pensée, où le pain pita tout juste sorti du four et le hummus crémeux sont des incontournables, les dips et les brochettes sont souvent salués, et des plats comme le falafel, le halloumi grillé, l'agneau braisé et le schnitzel remportent de nombreuses éloges, tandis que les desserts comme la babka charment les convives; la plupart des clients apprécient les portions à partager et l'ambiance conviviale, même si certains trouvent les plats principaux un peu fades ou coûteux, que l'endroit peut être bruyant et animé, et que le service peut parfois être lent.
Awesome experience from start to finish! Best muhamara I've had in MTL. Service was delightful. Our server Jigar helped us pick a few more dishes & recommended a bottle of Verminto from Corsica to go with the first round of plates. It was fantastic. After that he had us taste a red by the glass to go with meat course. By this point we trusted him completely so while I can't tell you what the red was, I can tell you we order two! Espresso martini to end the night, we'll be back asap!

Atmosphere was great, cool dishes, finally I have to say for a place that has such a good vibe & decor the prices are amazing on drinks & food! Will be going back!
Visited with my wife this evening, food was amazing, the atmosphere was lively but even sitting in the midst of it, conversation was easy to hear across the table. Both mocktails & cocktails were tasty. The muhamarra was delicious, the pitas are made in house & come out fluffy & piping hot. The latkes hit it out of the park with the depth & complexity of the flavors. Dessert is also notable-thoroughly enjoyed the babka & almond cake.
Bella, our server, was so on top of everything & Kat, the hostess was lovely, accommodating, & shared the private room space with us.
We will definitely return & look forward to deciding what event we will celebrate in the beautiful private space, completely separate from the dining room, with private washrooms.
We ate last night April 10 for my mother's 91 st birthday we were 7 people. We chose the fixed menu which was easy but a big mistake. The first course was 2 salads which were ok then some beet dish which was awful almost un edible. Then the main course of Kebobs were unedible steak was tough as leather
The chicken was OK, but not great & the salmon was fishy & couldn't eat it. The chicken schnitzel, which usually was their best dish was greasy & thick & nobody ate it either in our party. We had dessert, but we were so disgusted with the terrible noise which out of 10 was a 15 nobody could hear each other so we got up & left without dessert which was included that's how bad this place was in the end it was a horrible experience for my mother. Nobody could talk or hear each other. The only thing I would say was good was the pita bread which was hot & fresh otherwise, the overall quality was very poor & the atmosphere was absolutely terrible because of the noise.
We had a fabulous experience in the private dining room. The service was great, & the food was delicious. The team was incredibly easy to work with & so accommodating to all of our needs.
The room itself is really nice, with plenty of space for a sit-down dinner as well as separate little lounge areas for guests to hang out. There's also a very nice, private bathroom right off the room, which is convenient & a great added touch.
We will definitely book there again. We've also dined in the restaurant many times & have always had wonderful experiences.

Bella was an amazing server. Super friendly, attentive, & on point the whole time. She made the experience way better with her great energy & solid recommendations. Easily one of the best I've had!
Nous avons fait beaucoup de restaurants à Montréal & je dois admettre avoir été déçu lors de notre visite. Nous y sommes allés suite à une critique dans La Presse. Le service était plutôt prétentieux, très impersonnel & à notre arrivée, nous sentions qu'il fallait se dépêcher. Suite à une discussion avec le serveur, nous avons constaté un changement de ton mais l'attitude restait plutôt froide. Je préfère les restaurants où l'ambiance est chaleureuse & accueillante & je n'ai pas trouvé ces qualités chez Kif kif. De plus, les choix de pourboire était 18%. L'option 15% n'y était pas. Il fallait entrer le tout manuellement si nous voulions laisser 15% ou moins... Plutôt gênant de calculer devant le serveur. Je laisse toujours un pourboire. C'est vraiment la première fois où j'avais envie de ne pas en donner. J'aurais dû. Puisque je suis plutôt gentil & poli, j'ai donné 18%. Ce n'était pas du tout mérité.

The starter were good with nice pita & muhammara. Everything else was incredible mediocre. The chicken schnitzel was WAY too thick. The drinks were decent. I wouldn't return too much other good food in MTL.
very cute & lively restaurant, the service we got from Gabriel was fantastic, he checked in on all all night. Food was lovely as well, we got the hummus, grilled halloumi, braised lamb, crushed potatoes & the steak skewer.
I had a great dinner at Kif Kif last night. The food was flavourful, fresh, & delicious. The service was excellent, & I enjoyed the space. We ordered a bunch of items, but the highlights were the hot, perfectly charred pita bread & the super creamy hummus. Falafel was crunchy, & tasty too. I'd like to go back & try more dishes. Thank you Kif Kif!

I'm leaving this review after my second time at Kif Kif & I promise I will be back. The food is exceptional. We were 4, ordered 8 dishes to split & a cocktail each. Everything was delicious! The hummus was creamy & perfectly seasoned, the muhammara (walnut pepper dip) naturally & wonderfully sweet, the falafel rich in flavour yet not too oily, the schnitzel perfectly cooked & just the right kind of crispy... The vibe of the restaurant is intimate & slightly chic without being overly over the top fancy. Just the right kind of place for a night out with friends, or a loved one. I'll definitely be back to re-order everything & try the rest of the menu.
Oh, & the pitas! O.M.G. Freshly baked in their stove oven, stretchy, aromatic, just incredible. Order an extra one, you won't regret it.
The food isn't cheap but it's worth it. You can taste quality in each & every dish. Also, you can find some parking on a street right behind the restaurant. I'm glad it's not in the Plateau - parking & accessibility is so much easier!
Bonne nourriture, cependant j'ai vraiment été déçue. C'était l'anniversaire de mon amoureux, je l'avais spécifié lors de la réservation sur OpenTable & j'avais appelé 1h avant pour m'assurer que mon amoureux aie la surprise. Ils l'ont fait à 3 tables qui fêtaient leur anniversaire mais Ils ne l'ont jamais fait pour nous…
Our server was really nice but unfortunately that's the only positive thing I have to say about this place.
The food was bland, the portions are really small & it's overpriced. We had a reservation but still had to wait over 15 minutes to be seated.
Reading the menu, I had trouble understanding which country this was from since it seemed to be all over the place. Be careful of restaurants that only claim to be'Middle Eastern.'
Absolutely lovely dinner! I came with my family & kids & we loved all the plates. The schnitzel is 10/10 along with the potatoes, pita & hummus. My kids loved the steak skewers. Will recommend & will be back! My friends went the same week after my recommendation & loved it too!
