Les avis convergent pour présenter Leymoun comme un lieu chaleureux et intime, où l'accueil rappelle une cuisine familiale et où l'on peut prendre son temps pour un brunch syrien libanais authentique. La carte met en valeur le petit déjeuner, le fatté, le foul, le hummus, le shawarma et le halloumi frit, avec des plats frais, généreux et parfaitement équilibrés. Le thé noir maison, la limonade et d'autres boissons complètent les assiettes et renforcent l'impression d'un repas convivial et détendu. L'ambiance est souvent décrite comme calme, propre et accueillante, avec un personnel attentif et des portions généreuses qui favorisent le partage. Le cadre, la décoration et la musique contribuent à une atmosphère chaleureuse et familiale, propice à commencer la journée ou à passer un moment sans pression. Certains avis soulignent que le rapport qualité-prix peut sembler élevé et que le service peut être lent à certaines heures, mais l'ensemble des retours met en avant l'authenticité et le soin apporté pour faire sentir les clients comme des invités chez eux. En somme, Leymoun ressort comme une adresse incontournable pour un brunch ou un petit déjeuner moyen oriental, frais, savoureux et convivial, qui invite à revenir et à partager entre amis ou en famille.
This was my first Syrian brunch, & it happened on one of those quiet girls' days that stay with you. Just me, my aunt, & my cousin, nowhere to rush off to, choosing a table & choosing each other.
We went to Leymoun, tucked along Rue Dudemaine. Walking in felt less like entering a restaurant & more like being welcomed into someone's home. No waiting, no hovering, no pressure to order fast. Just space to settle in, sip slowly, & talk as long as we wanted.
Brunch started the way it should. With tea.
A big pot of black tea, steeped in-house & ready by the time brunch rolls around. Bold, fragrant, grounding. The kind of tea that invites you to pour another cup without thinking.
What we shared felt designed for lingering.
Petit Déjeuner Platter
A generous spread of Syrian breakfast staples meant to be passed around. Creamy dips, salty cheeses, crunchy vegetables, warm falafel, juicy green olives, & a homemade fig jam that honestly tasted like sunshine. Pomegranate seeds scattered across the plate added little bursts of brightness that kept pulling me back in.
Fatté Hummus au Shawarma
This was the favorite at the table. Creamy hummus layered with yogurt & tahini, topped with tender chicken shawarma, grilled almonds, & crispy pita chips. Rich, tangy, crunchy, spiced. Every bite felt complete.
Shakshuka
Comfort in its simplest form. Soft feta-topped eggs, sautéed onions, tomatoes, & peppers. Nothing fussy. Just satisfying & warm.
Fried Halloumi with Leymoun Sauce
The surprise star. Salty, golden halloumi paired with their signature za'atar, honey, & sesame sauce. Sweet, salty, herby, a little sticky, & very addictive.
Everything tasted thoughtful. Like it was made with the intention of being shared. Plates kept moving, conversations kept unfolding, & time quietly stretched.
This is the kind of brunch that doesn't rush you out the door. It turns into an afternoon without asking.
Foxy Tip: Come with people you love, order for the table, & don't watch the clock. Leymoun is about slowing down & savoring more than just the food. The stories matter too.
I share local gems & cultural eats over on ig @foxyappetite & TikTok @foxy.appetite, & this one truly earned its place.
This meal was comped as part of a media preview. Sharing my honest thoughts above.
I haven't seen any disorganized & mismanaged place as this restaurant in Montreal or Laval so far. The place is left to be ran by three employees on the busiest day of the season (Eid & Mother's Day). Three people to usher, serve, wait, clean etc.
We called to ask if we can be seated right away if we arrived in the coming 15 minutes, & we were assured we will be. Only to be surprised upon our arrival that we were lied to.
We waited 30 minutes at the corner of the restaurant with our grandma who is 80 years old standing on her feet while we watched other people being seated (people who arrived after us).
When we confronted one of the employees instead of showing empathy & finding a solution we were met with an attitude.
The logical solution that one of the employees found was to ask one of the tables that were still actively eating to wrap up & leave.
They ruined our Mother's Day brunch with our family. All of this could have been avoided if the employee was honest from the moment we spoke over the phone & set realistic expectations.
They are dishonest & unorganized & this is going to be problematic for their business.
Really disappointing experience. We called ahead & were told the wait would be about 10 minutes, but ended up waiting over 30 minutes in a cramped corner. To make things worse, two larger groups arrived after us & were seated first. Staff said they had reservations, but we had just seen them waiting at another restaurant moments before. The lack of honesty & transparency was frustrating & definitely not appreciated.
What a treat to find this gem of a place. I am not familiar with middle eastern food, so I asked for recommendations while practicing my very limited French & was very happy with the food I received.
I left feeling I had eaten a good meal for a reasonable price served by lovely staff.
Highly recommended!
We went there at Brunch hour on a sunday for the first time...the brunch platter was super nice, tasty colorful & plenty of food. Service was precise. We will make an habit !
The breakfast was fresh & tasty, & the staff were friendly. The tables were small, so fitting everything was a bit tricky. The restaurant was also small, & people often bumped into neighboring tables when sitting down or getting up.

We went there on the weekend. It was a little crowded.. But the brunch was perfect. I can say it's the best Lebanese brunch I've ever had in Montreal. Also, the service was good & fast. I highly recommend this place for brunch.
