The kunafa & cheese were delicious! My only suggestion would be to change the type of ghee they use & make it with animal ghee instead. I think it would make the flavor much richer & even more delicious. Overall, I really enjoyed it!

A True Gem!
My husband & I are visiting Montreal from the US, & we had to stop by Knafé Stop after hearing great things - & wow, it did not disappoint. It's hard to find truly authentic knafe these days, but this one was absolutely delicious - light, flavorful, & perfectly balanced without that heavy ghee taste some versions have.

The owner was incredibly friendly & welcoming, taking the time to explain how they make their own cheese in-house & source their ingredients directly from Nablus, Palestine. As someone who's actually had knafe in Nablus, I can confidently say this is the real deal. Fresh, authentic, & made with care - truly a hidden gem! 💛🇵🇸

Ordered one of each knafe to enjoy on the bus to the airport. I had my hands full so had to wait a bit to crack it open. I was sweaty & hot by the time I walked to the 747 bus to YUL. Hesitant to eat a warm treat, I dove right in. WOW! Very good. The vermicelli was crispy & crunchy soaked the sugar syrup right up; slightly buttery & greasy, cheese was soft & just a hint of salt; with pistachios on top. Not too sweet either. Very delicious. I devoured it before I got to check in counter. The other one I gifted to the customer agents who accepted delightfully. She got the one with extra sauce on the side & it was still warm! Very good - will come back just for this & those fries with the gravy on it all the way from NYC!

Located on Dudemain Street, this small Knefa shop brings authentic Palestinian flavors to Montreal. The knefa is made fresh right in front of you, & I was really impressed by the taste, which is a bit different from the Lebanese version. Personally, I think it could use a bit more cheese for the base, but overall, it's a great find. As a suggestion, I recommend the owner consider offering knefa buns for those who enjoy eating it with bread. It could also be either a bit less expensive or slightly bigger. A quick tip: consider ordering by phone before coming, as there can be a wait time. A delightful new discovery for any knefa lover!

Knafé Stop's Knafé Nabulsi is the perfect balance of sweet & salty with this deep, aromatic, rich flavor that is very difficult to describe. The knafé was the best I have ever had in my life, & it is incomparable. The price was a bit high for me but TOTALLY WORTH ALL OF IT! After the first spoonful, I knew that I did not overpay it at all. The quality of the ingredients, the process of making it, the time/care/effort, along with the final product make it all worth it. I cannot wait to go back to try knafé cheese (vermicelli) & another knafé nabulsi. I wish I lived closer; I would visit often. It is a whole another experience; I recommend everyone to try it. Also, the restaurant is very clean.
