Reviews highlight Malak Al Tawouk as a go to for delicious Lebanese fast food with authentic flavors, especially the tawouk sandwiches and chicken shawarma, backed by generous portions and solid value. The service is repeatedly described as fast and friendly, and the staff as welcoming, with many visits noting a clean, well organized restaurant and a lively, homey vibe. While most praise the quality and consistency, a few observations mention occasional slower service, variability in heat or freshness, and occasional menu items that don't meet expectations, but the overall sentiment is highly positive and many would return for the same experience.
Chicken Taouk speciality. One of the few where you get a tasty sandwich that hold itself during eating! Price/size ratio is amazing. Will come back again.
Probably my favourite Lebanese restaurant/fast food place in Mtl, it's not always easy to find a place that gets the taste of Taouk & the garlic sauce right but they have. Big portions as well, I go there whenever i have a chance
Malak Al Tawouk is LITERALLY MY COMFORT FOOD-I order at least once a week. We went the other day & the place was amazing, the staff was amazing, & it was super clean. I can't wait to try everything on the menu, but right now I'm a bit too obsessed with the Classique with cheese. Also my favorite fries in Montreal!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
The tawouk sandwich is delicious, well-seasoned & generously portioned. But the burger was a letdown: overcooked, dry, & messy to eat. Giving 3 stars for the great tawouk, but the burger needs improvement.
I must say, a 2/3-star experience based on last night's sandwich & I'm now wondering if that's not overly generous.
Swung by last night after craving a Tawouk sandwich following a 10k run only to be utterly disappointed. I also brought a friend with who has never been before. I'm now finding myself explaining exuberant craving only to get… that.
I distinctly recall the epic bang with which this shop opened last year (I think?). Skewered marinated chicken freshly grilled, wrapped to perfection on a bed of coleslaw & crispy fries… the stuff of legends. Juicy enough for the memory to take hold deep inside your psyche & reappear as uncontrollable cravings after a miserable run. Lol
But that's not what I found last night. The juicy-tender chicken gave way, & a pre-grilled lukewarm rubbery meat took its place. The pita bread wasn't quite as fresh, & the layers of bread stacked up to make chewing more of chore than a delicious culinary experience. Midway through the sandwich, I caught myself unwrapping it to looking into its ingredients. Something definitely changed, & I felt robbed of the promise of that once-delicious memory.
The only saving grace is that the people were unmemorably courteous, & the place was clean. The sandwich is cheap enough to dull the outrage, & I guess the chances of another craving will now have to contend with this below average experience.
Very disappointed Malak Al Tawouk.
That royal title (Al Malak) needs revisiting.
INCROYABLE!!!
C'est le seul mot qui me vient en tête quand tu me parle de se fast food, le meilleure service, place très propre & surtout la nourriture est très très bonne ! 10/10 recommend!
The classic Tawouk Malak sandwich is very filling & tasty. I find that I end up removing some of the bread from the sandwich to really enjoy the taste.
Tried the Tawouk Malak Platter (enough for 2 people) & it was pretty good. Unfortunately they only give you a small garlic container. You get enough coleslaw & pickles, but definitely order extra garlic.
Definitely come try them out!

Filling & delicious meal! Would return :)
Wait times are slightly long & it's difficult to know if your order is ready if you're seated in the corridor. I would recommend ordering beforehand & getting pickup.
Hi guys I'm giving a review based on the factors that came my mind. First of all finding parking is a headache, then the location is very badly placed specially for the local lebanese (St lareurent, CDN, cote vertu). Please open a spot in Cotes des neiges or St Larent area. Also there's no space to sit when it's overcrowded.
