Kif Kif est largement considéré comme une destination culinaire exceptionnelle, célébrée pour sa cuisine d'inspiration méditerranéenne riche en saveurs et pour son ambiance chaleureuse et élégante. De nombreux convives font l'éloge du pain pita fraîchement sorti du four, de l'houmous onctueux et de plats marquants comme le schnitzel de poulet et le muhammara, soulignant que la cuisine témoigne d'une réelle qualité et d'une grande attention aux détails. Bien que la majorité des visiteurs saluent l'excellence du service et l'accueil attentionné, certains clients ont noté que le restaurant peut être bruyant, que les tables sont rapprochées et que certaines portions peuvent sembler petites par rapport au prix. Malgré quelques rares signalements de service précipité ou d'expériences mitigées concernant l'espace et le niveau sonore, le consensus général demeure très positif, le restaurant étant fréquemment cité comme un lieu idéal pour des célébrations et des visites répétées.
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.
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.
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!

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!
Good experience at Kifkif, could have been great.
The schnitzel, the grilled zucchinis, hummus & eggplant dips were really good. The salmon crudo was also super fresh & tasty.
We did feel like the service felt rushy sometimes. Taking out the plate right after we finished the last bite is not very pleasant. Why the rush, I would have loved to get another spoon of the green sauce!
The desserts were a miss because we did not have the full description : the chocolate terrine was actually chocolate & olive oil (bold combination but unfortunately not to our taste), the almond cake was actually almond & labneh (again not really to our taste).
The babka however was a great way to finish the night.
We loved the food & atmosphere here! We sat at the bar & talked to the bartender a lot, she was super attentive! The muhammara & eggplant dips were delicious. We got the schnitzel as our main & loved that too! We're already planning to come back to try more things on the menu.
I was heavily anticipating a delicious meal & our entire party was not even close to being disappointed. In fact, Kif Kif was able to take us on a Mediterranean journey unique unto its own. From the moment we walked in & were greeted by Nadine (hostess) & Dan himself (chef who happened to be up front at the time) to the extremely courteous service of our sever Abby, the hospitality was perfect. Of course, the true highlight was the series of dishes we were treated to. The dips are a must (all three). Hummous was creamy & authentic, the Muhammara was a table favorite & the carried eggplant was out of this world. But what really tied it all together was the pastry like Pita bread that came out of an authentic Italian oven, piping hot & fresh & would literally melt in your mouth.
We then moved on to other divine sharing dishes like the ever so tender flank steak skewers, the signature chicken schnitzel & the raw salmon which makes any other ceviche look mundane & plain. The meal was also complemented with crunchy slaw, smashed potoes & a fantastic zucchini labneh side that popped.
Mission accomplished...everyone was stuffed, but you know what they say:'Everyone has room for dessert'. So we indulged & we went with Dan's suggestions. The table shared the chocolate Terrie with Halva, a milk pudding drizzled with the perfect amount of rose water, & a chocolate Babke which was the star of the show.
We rolled out of Kif Kif extremely satisfied needless to say & with the wine (& a cocktail) the bill seemed fair. Thank you again to Dan & his team. If you have not yet experienced this local wonder, you should make your rezzie now. We will be back 10000%.
The ambiance is beautiful, the service is fast & friendly & most importantly the food was delicious. Make sure to get the Hummus & Schnitzel, they can't be missed & were the standouts for me. I can't wait to come back!
The restaurant had a pleasant ambiance that made for a nice dining experience. The appetizers were delightful, bursting with flavor. However, the main courses were a bit disappointing; the chicken schnitzel was bland, & the rice lacked seasoning. On the plus side, the beef was perfectly tender, which was a highlight of the meal. It's worth mentioning that the pita bread was fresh, but be prepared to pay $5 for each pita
