Malak Al Tawouk is widely praised for flavorful, authentic Lebanese fast food and generous portions. The taouk sandwiches and wraps are frequently highlighted for being juicy and well seasoned, with a standout garlic sauce and affordable prices for the quality. The menu items such as the Lebanese burger are also mentioned positively, and many reviewers say the food tastes like home and evokes Beirut vibes. Service is commonly described as friendly, quick, and accommodating, and the restaurant is often noted as clean and well organized. Fans emphasize the large portions, value for money, and the comforting nature of the meals that keep them returning. A few visits mention slower or inconsistent service during peak times, not always hot or fresh sandwiches, or occasional supply issues, but these are outweighed by praise for taste and overall experience.
De fast-food normal ni plus ni moins, les sandwiches passent mais les burgers à éviter pas bon de tout, frites commercials.
J'avais juste faim mais je ne reviendrai plus
I grew up near Bliss St in Lebanon where Malak El Tawouk is a DELICIOUS go-to! The first time this Malak El Tawouk location opened in Montreal my fiancé & I made the drive from Ottawa to go try it & it was so delicious we brought back sandwiches for the whole family!!! & the place was packed! We just went back again yesterday, very excited for a taste of home, & it was so incredibly disappointing. Did not taste the same at all. It is now an edible chicken sandwich. Very meh. Very mediocre. But is definitely NOT Malak el Tawouk anymore. We will wait until our next trip to Lebanon to have it again on Bliss St because this definitely isn't it 👎
An amazing spot for authentic Lebanese sandwiches that truly deliver on flavor! The Tawook sandwich was absolutely delicious & tasted just like the ones you'd find in Lebanon-perfectly seasoned, tender, & wrapped with care. The traditional Lebanese burger sandwich was another standout, packed with rich, authentic flavors that brought back so many memories. If you're craving a taste of Lebanon, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended for anyone seeking genuine Lebanese street food done right!
As a fellow Lebanese who grew up eating Malak Al Tawouk. YOU. MUST. GO. HERE. When I heard they were opening in Canada, I freaked out & had to immediately come here to try it. Tastes just like home! & is quite affordable too. If you want fast, good & filling sandwiches.. Go to Malak Al Tawouk!
My family & I ordered the chicken tawouk sandwiches & French fries. The food was decent, but we had specifically requested that the kids' sandwiches be made without ketchup & pickles. Unfortunately, this detail was missed, & all the sandwiches included both, which we only noticed after leaving the restaurant. It would be helpful if the staff paid closer attention to special instructions. I rated the atmosphere lower due to the limited seating-no tables were available-& the space felt loud & crowded.
I tried the regular Taouk sandwiches & they were fantastic! The flavors were authentic, & the portions were really generous. You get a lot of quality food for an affordable price, making it a great value. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a delicious, hearty meal.

During my recent visit, I noticed that the taouk tasted different. Additionally, I was concerned about hygiene when I saw a woman & a man preparing sandwiches while chewing gum. For a restaurant that adheres to the ISO 22000 food safety management standard, chewing gum should be prohibited for staff to maintain high hygiene standards.
I've been twice so far & went for the Tawouk sandwich with cheese both times. The size of the sandwiches is great, the regular is quite large so you don't even need a side of fries. It's a delicious sandwich, although a bit light on the veggies in comparison to Shawarma's which I am more accustomed to. The garlic sauce heavily dominates the flavours of the wrap. This place is pretty popular so the wait times can get long. In consideration of how busy they are, seating availability can be a problem. The place is kept clean though & generally well-run.
Let me lay it as is , I'm 48 years old grew up with these sandwiches, it's close but not there, like Lebanon. Burger is good, taouk is cold & dry, it was left for too long on the grille, probably cooked in advance as you see in the pic & piled up to keep up with the rush. Soujouk is not edible , has nothing to do with Soujouk, French fries sandwich is ok, but not enough French fries in the sandwich , liver was not bad , I would have left a 3 star but bash is a friend . I left a 4 star. Quality of food needs to be worked on. This is not the Malek Al Taouk we know. Yes, I lay it as is, even if it's a friend's place... sorry Bash. I know you take pride in your restaurants . This needs work.
The food tastes amazing & come in many sizes. The service is great because the staff are very nice. The thing is that there aren't many spots & that the restaurant is a little bit tight. Other than that, everything's very impressive! You must try their Lebanese burger :) 👌🏼 But they put way too much garlic in the sandwiches. I even had a garlic trace the next morning 😅
