Le Petit Alep est un resto de type bistro où vous retrouverez des expositions de photos. A la carte: salade (fattouche, de taboulé ou syrienne), assiette de hors-d'oeuvre végétariens (purée d'aubergine, purée de pois chiches, feuilles de vigne, riz aux lentilles...), grillades de boeuf haché épicé, les poissons ou les fruits de mer. Ces plats sont accompagnés de salade verte et de riz.
Le Petit Alep Bistro est largement salué pour ses saveurs riches, ses mezze et ses brochettes bien assaisonnées, dans une ambiance chaleureuse et animée, et de nombreux convives apprécient le menu de dégustation ainsi que la valeur globale. La qualité et le service sont décrits comme impeccables lors de certaines visites et inégaux lors d autres, avec des préoccupations concernant des plats trop acides, des portions petites pour le prix et des retards occasionnels. Dans l ensemble, l'établissement demeure une référence pour ses saveurs levantines et son ambiance conviviale, bien que les expériences varient selon les visites.
Wow. I am very passionate about syrian/lebanese food. Having tried many, in different places of the world, this place might be my #1 ever. Their mezze, meat, etc. It's simply incredible. The food is so loaded in flavour, I can't even describe it.
If I had to pick one place for improvement, I'd say - don't give customers bread in the plastic bag. Heat it before, serve it in a nice little basket (or even find a bakery that can make syrian bread for you to serve). That would be the cherry on top.
Stopped by for lunch with a friend. Food was tasty & service was good. Was shocked at the price & size of the fattouch. Found the menu on the steep side considering the size of the plates so value wasn't what I thought it should be. A good spot but wouldn't return as there are similar restaurants with better value.

Impeccable, à l'exception d'un conseiller aux vins tellement désagréable. Prochaine fois qu'il est là, je ne commanderai pas de vin juste pour ne pas avoir à lui parler. Il ruine l'expérience.
Fantastic restaurant with a fantastic staff & beyond fantastic food ❤?❤? We made reservations & were seated quickly & started off with a lot of pita & Fattooche salad which were amazingly great ❤?❤? We also had Moussaka, Sabanegh, Chicken Tarator, Chicken Taouck, & Chicken Rice & each bite was beyond a gourmet's delight 😇😇 Full compliments to the chef as we ordered the Chicken Tarator & the Chicken rice again ❤?❤? For dessert we had the Baklawa & Caramel Cream & it was heaven on earth ❤?❤? Cannot wait to come back & try other items on the menu of this incredible 11/10 venue with family & friends 😇😇 Just make sure you make reservations as it is incredibly popular🙏🙏
I'm Syrian so I'll be a bit picky in my review. Overall the place is excellent, especially for the price point (really good value). The hummus, moujadara, & Kabbab Kach-Kach were great. The muhamara was not good. The Sea Bass fish with arak was below expectations. The vine leaves were fantastic. The atmosphere & service were great. The place is authentic & fun & I would totally come again.
The food was good, but the service was disappointing. We ordered two appetizers & two main courses, the main courses arrived first & they forgot about our appetizers. We mentioned it so they served it afterwards, but we didn't want it anymore. Also, they never took our orders for drinks of the entire meal.
Perfect oasis after a stroll through the Jean Talon farmers market. Noshed on special recipe hummus, mujadara, tabouli, pitas, grilled shrimp & spicy fries. Brought back to life.
Trooop top.
On a fêté ma résidence permanente ici.
Nous avons pris l'option du chef. Un assortiment de plats en plusieurs services.
Tout était bon. Mention spéciale pour le houmous & la concassé de tomates avec noix de Grenoble.
Vous pouvez les manger séparées, mais suivez le conseil du serveur qui est de mélanger les deux....un tuerie.
Le service est impeccable & souriant.
Le prix indiqué est boissons comprises.

Our recent visit was disappointing, mainly due to the host's lack of accommodation. While we requested a terrace table, & one became available, we were denied the chance to move, even though other guests next to us asked another member of staff after & were easily relocated.
This left us feeling unfairly treated & just displayed the host's unpleasant behaviour.
Additionally, the food was underwhelming (the kefta was dry & was clearly just reheated & was cold in the middle) & the indoor ambiance was uncomfortable due to the heat- they have no AC. The decor is old & overused.
On the bright side, our server was very pleasant.
We hadn't been in a couple of years & it has clearly gone downhill. Very disappointing.
Première expérience au Petit Alep. Nous avons essayé l'expérience culinaire, qui consistait en une multitudes de plats, tous délicieux.
Avant de débuter, le serveur nous a demandé notre liste de restrictions alimentaires & il a ajusté ses plats en conséquences.
Nous avions notre réservation un vendredi à 18h, le restaurant s'est rapidement remplis & malgré tout, en un peu plus d'une heure, nous avions déjà eu tous nos repas, deux drinks chacun & la facture. Service impeccable, rapide, professionnel & très courtois.
L'ensemble de ces plats nous aura coûté 50$ par personne, excluant les drinks & chaque dollar est mérité.
Mention spécial à notre serveur qui a vraiment contribué à l'expérience
Had lunch at this casual Syrian restaurant near Jean Talon Market. Tried kebab & they were tasty. Combo with salad/rice available as an option. Good service & atmosphere also.

La Petit Alep was AMAZING & Alex impeccable!
Alex suggested taking a tasting tour in which we enjoyed their homemade pressed, sliced beef- better than prosciutto, muhummara, hummus, & fatoush. The filet mignon kabob was EXCELLENT! & the chicken kabob was excellent as well. We would've bought the beef sauce except we're going camping in a few days. The coconut pudding with ginger syrup & a jam was delish!
The sommelier have an excellent wine suggestion for the night as well.
My hubby who doesn't usually mention flavors specifically was getting descriptive himself. It was so good I had to close my eyes to fully enjoy & savor.
Alex was quite attentive, pleasant, welcoming, accommodating to us. His English was excellent
We had a horrible meal elsewhere although the restaurant was recommended to us. The meal was poor due to service taking 3 hours although we had two kids in tow, no flavor, overpaying for what we got. I feel like this meal redeemed our gastronomic experience in Montreal.
Excellent job Alex! Thanking God for this great find!
Amazing flavors meet great service at a good price point.
We really enjoyed everything here. Alex asked if we wanted him to just bring us food until we told him to stop, which was a great idea. The shish filet, the hummus, the sauces, it's all terrific. The salad dressing is the right blend of vinegar & mint. They add cumin in the proportion to knock your tongue backward.
Ma copine & moi sommes allés hier soir essayer le menu de dégustation (3 services) & avons été sincèrement déçus. Les deux premiers services n'étaient que des entrées (taboulé, hummus, laitue, feuilles de vignes, pita, petites saucisses de boeuf). Tous les plats étaient trop acidulés & ne représentent pas un bon rapport qualité-quantité-prix. Quel serveur peut recommander ses clients de commencer par 35$/personne d'entrées? Notre serveur, bien que sympatique, aurait dû nous indiquer que les deux premiers services étaient des entrées, & que le menu dégustation était simplement des items au menu (I.e. feuilles de laitue à 4$).
Ensuite, nous avons pris la brochette de filet mignon marinée, épicée. Il ne s'agissait pas de cubes de filet mignon, mais des petites lanières (voir photo). Le goût était une fois encore trop acidulé. Pour 21$/brochette, c'est passable.
En résumé, je déconseille Le Petit Alep. Si vous y allez, évitez à tout prix le menu de dégustation .
