Mahrouseh is truly a gem. From the moment you step inside, you are transported to another time & place. The oriental décor is absolutely mind-blowing-filled with beautiful antique pieces that instantly remind you of an old Damascene house, complete with a charming fountain in the middle. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit.
As for the desserts, the selection is outstanding. They offer a wide variety of traditional Arabic/Eastern desserts as well as Western options, all prepared with exceptional quality & care. The taste is simply amazing. I ordered Halawet El Jibn, a very traditional Syrian dessert made from semolina, cheese, blossom water, & syrup topped with crushed pistachios-& it was perfection. They also serve Kunafeh & many, many other delicious desserts that are hard to resist.
The staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming, which adds even more to the experience. I even asked why they don't open a new branch in BC, & the answer truly impressed me. They explained that maintaining the highest quality is their top priority, & they refuse to compromise by sending their chefs elsewhere-even though they receive requests to open branches in many major cities across the USA & Canada.
That level of dedication says everything. I'm very pleased to have visited Mahrouseh, & it's a place I would happily return to again & again. Highly recommended!
(Almost perfect. Kaake blinked & disappeared.)
Mahrouse Patisserie is a public service. Everything is fresh, everything is good, & the downtown location just saved me a long, emotional drive to Acadie. My gas tank & my mood both say thank you.
I had the knafeh & it was really good. Yes, it's smaller than the Lebanese version we all grew up with. No, I'm not mad about it. Quality is there, flavor is on point, & it clearly knows what it's doing. Very tasty, very satisfying, very'okay fine I'll come back.'
Service? Impressive. Friendly, efficient, & fast, like they know you're there for serious dessert business.
One small comment though… the kaake.
It is tiny. Not'cute' tiny. More like'is this the sample?' tiny. Please make it a bit bigger. I'm not asking for miracles, just something that doesn't disappear in three bites.
Overall, amazing spot, fresh desserts, great service.
We have been customers of Mahrouse Pastry for over ten years & have always had an excellent experience. Their sweets, especially the baklavas, are always fresh, flavorful, & high quality. Each visit brings back many sweet memories for us & leaves us with a wonderful feeling. Truly one of the best Arabic pastry shops in the city.
Excellent quality sweets & desserts. Staff is friendly & professional & facility is clean & spacious. Can recommend with confidence. 🤙

Their baklava is truly exceptional-delicately crisp layers, perfectly balanced sweetness, & a rich filling of pistachios or walnuts that melts in your mouth.

Posted hours on Google & TripAdvisor defaults to the original location which opens at 9AM. However, at the downtown location on Rue Montagne the working hours begin at 11AM daily & not 9 AM. Several people came by in the morning mistaking the hours listed for the original location on Acadie for the downtown location. They are definitely worth the wait but may be losing new customers.
As far as the quality of service & of the desserts this Syrian sweets place is hands-down the best! Such a treat to visit here!
The Baklava & Arabic sweets are as good as they can get. This place rival some of the best in Syria or Lebanon. They don't stint & the use high quality ingredients.

Yes, the prices are a bit on the higher side, but you get what you pay for: quality. The pastries are absolutely delicious, freshly made, & packed with rich, traditional flavors. This is where you come when you want the good stuff-treats that actually taste like home.

I learned that this bakery is run by a family that has generations' worth of experience. The sweets offered are beyond delicious, the quality of the ingredients shines through. This is a must stop if you love desserts, a true Montreal gem. The service is exceptional, the smiling ladies behind the counter were very helpful with suggestions because there was so much too choose from.
Wow, a one of a kind place in Montreal. Amazing variety for middle Eastern pastries. Super curtious & friendly service. Knowing everything is hand made, prices are very fair & representative of the quality. Plenty of parking spots. I will be back for sure !
