I had two experiences here. One was great, & the second time we ordered spicy chicken, but the spice was way too hot & almost inedible :) Overall, I still like the food & everything here. The photo here from our first time & it was perfect

We have been to Mirage almost every night during our visit to Montreal! The food, the ambience, & the service are just the best! We have tried different foods & everything is delicious. Even though it's hard to pick one, our absolute favorite is the grilled whole chicken. It's so flavorful! Everyone at mirage is so lovely, their care for their customers is amazing. If I could take Mirage Restaurant home with me, I would! If you're in Montreal don't miss out on dropping by Mirage & treating your taste buds.

I don't usually write reviews but I tought this might be necessary. Food used to be so good here & the portions would also be appropriate.The portions seems to have been reduced & customer service was the WORST.I understand it was packed but after taking our order we had to wait a long time (fasting) & had already reserved a spot.when we did get the food it wasn't the rice I asked for ( that is on the menu & that I got last time) We didn't eat the plain white rice since we never eat it because of taste preference.We then had to wait 30 more minutes for our rice to come & when it did our chicken was cold which is understandable, but we had to ask for our drink because we were waiting for 30 minutes with no drinks..They then wanted to charge me for the rice that they brought after even tho I had not eaten their white rice? I had to speak up & let them know This shouldn't be an extra because it was not my fault. I guess they realized their mistakes by not giving the option to tip. First pic is before second pic is now Anyways It's sad to know that such a good & tasty restaurant I used to love has come this far ..

I have ordered from them many times & they have always delivered delicious food.
Recently I tried their Shish taouk & rice & it was the juiciest chicken I have had in a while. Staff is always friendly & welcoming. Will definitely recommend this place to everyone.

I went here with my partner for lunch & the service was pretty lacking. Took 20 minutes to even be able to order. We got the muhammara & half chicken with biryani on the side. The dip was pretty mediocre but the bread was atrocious. The menu gives you the sense that the bread is made fresh but it was grocery store pita & they didn't even warm it up. The chicken & rice was amazing. Smoky in all the right ways, lemony & the biryani tasted really good. Miles above what you'd expect from a side. It would have been nice to have some veggies on the plate but overall the chicken & rice was a 5/5 but accounting for everything else, I could only rate it a 3.

The food was not up to my standard, the chicken was dry & beef too spicy. It took us 1 hour to be served, although the restaurant wasn't busy.

The grilled chicken was unreal. Best chicken I've had in a long time. Rest of the grilled meat were ok. Overall a little pricey, but considering the tourist location, expected.

I recently visited Mirage Restaurant, & it was a delightful experience, as always. The ambiance is charmingly Moroccan, with decor that captures the warmth & vibrancy of Morocco! I always enjoy their half chicken served with perfectly seasoned rice & as entry I love their lentil soup. The flavors were authentic & rich, clearly crafted with high-quality ingredients & traditional techniques. Our waitress was incredibly warm & attentive. Overall, the service was excellent, & the food quality consistently impressive.

The charcoal grilled chicken is very tasty but everything is expensive, little meat & lots of French fries, no generosity on the plate
