Lulu Épicerie is described as a vibrant, authentic Lebanese spot with fresh, flavorful dishes and a lively vibe, where shawarma and manakeesh are repeatedly praised for tenderness and bold flavors, and garlic potatoes or batata harra are standout sides. The food is seen as fresh and thoughtfully prepared, offering a sense of home, with quick service and a welcoming, friendly atmosphere and occasional Arabic music; the space is limited, lending a takeout vibe. Reviewers often call it among the best shawarma in Montreal and a top Lebanese option, though some note price concerns or inconsistent quality, and a few visits when items were unavailable. Overall, it is highly regarded for authentic flavors, good value for the area, and a warm experience that keeps customers returning.
Great Lebanese restaurant with authentic flavors. I had the cocktail mankoushe, which was perfect for breakfast or brunch. For lunch, they offer delicious taouk plates & shawarma. Highly recommended!

Incredible sandwiches & potatoes! Got there pretty close to closing & they were out of shawarma, but the kafta sandwich was really good. Garlic potatoes were incredible, super fresh & crispy with a spicy oil & great garlic sauce. The place is really brightly lit & the staff is incredibly friendly & welcoming. They gave me a free water cup without making me buy a bottle which I appreciated!
First time at this place. Had high expectations after seeing it on Instagram. I didn't give 1 star
for the vibe & because i didnt try everything. Shawarma chicken, beef, tawouk, batata were all not good. Meat is dry & garlic sauce tastes like mayo. It's not authentic compared to what we have back home. Many places in greater montreal do it much better.

Really good middle eastern food! We weren't sure what to order so the owner recommended the shawarma. It was the right choice. It was a little smaller than others I've had, though it was tightly packed & very flavourful. No complaints here. I also had the Kafka which was also fantastic. Fresh out of the fryer & delicious. If you're in the neighborhood you need to drop by.
Another amazing experience at lulu epicerie. The value for your money is always worth it when going for the mix grill As well for Mo, he gave us an absolutely amazing service & we felt very welcomed which is very rare to find in montreal restaurants (low or high end) (I had to show my appreciation to the staff)
Lulu, this time with Mo. His service was outstanding-he served us with a smile & positive energy. As always, the food was fantastic & prepared quickly. The fresh homemade pita was excellent, & the chicken & kebabs were incredibly juicy. Lulu continues to use the same high-quality ingredients they did a year ago, which I truly appreciate. The portions are very generous.
