Restaurant Abouda is a cozy spot in Montreal serving flavorful Tunisian cuisine. The dishes are fresh, well-spiced, & generously portioned, & the staff are friendly & welcoming. A great choice for anyone craving authentic North African flavors.
Where do I start. It's not just a restaurant but a cultural experience. We go from Ottawa to Montreal just for Abouda. The food feels like being back home in the streets of Tunisia.
The Kaftaji, the meats, the Grilled Salad, are all like the ones you'd get in your lunch hour in the busy streets of the medina back in Tunisia. I could go on & on about the place.
Even the takeaway that we had from what's left, end up making sandwiches with it & it's just sublime.
For the price, atmosphere & quality of the food, like I said, it's not just a Tunisian restaurant but far more than that, a cultural experience from start to finish. Cheers as always!
An authentic Tunisian cuisine in Montreal. The experience I felt taken me for a journey into Tunisia ! The food & service & above all the people were very good....Highly recommended if you feel homesick or wants to taste authentic Tunisisn dishes.
A colleague recommended this restaurant to me, so we went for lunch (family of 4 including 2 teens). What a fantastic experience- the food was incredible & flavourful.
Our first Tunisian meal & we felt like we'd been invited to someone's home for a bite. The staff were quick to offer insight & were very welcoming.

this was my first time trying Tunisian food & it did not disappoint!! so flavorful. it was really busy we waited about half an hour for a table, I can see why it's so popular. will definitely be returning.
This was my first experience trying Tunisian food, & it was fantastic! The plating was truly eye-catching, full of warm & vibrant colors. The dishes were quite spicy for me, but if you enjoy heat, definitely follow the staff's recommendations. The service was excellent - the staff were polite, friendly, & very welcoming.
Tried Abouda on a Tunisian colleague's recommendation. I went with the kaftagi (a popular pick per the staff). Quality was good, though a bit spicier & hotter than I prefer. I didn't love the dish itself, but it was worth trying for the experience. I did enjoy the potatoes on the side & the fresh bread. Staff were kind, & the space felt warm with Tunisian décor. Overall, a good experience.
Very delicious food I loved every meal I had as a Tunisian I think the restaurant is matching the Tunisian culture & the food is practically the same as in Tunisia it's like you've travelled through space keep up the good work ❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?

Service is amazing. Food is delicious. I didn't know what to expect, it was my first time trying Tunisian food & I am not disappointed. I am vegetarian so I got the kafteji & I quite liked it.
I've come here so many times (that's why one of the photo was different loll). The dishes represents Tunisian culture I believe, which surprisingly, as an Asian customer who had really little knowledge about the country, I was amazed by how the food tasted, must say that I found some new favourite dishes! I find it really sweet of the waiter for letting us in 10min before their opening time as it was a really hot day.
An edit update from my original review because if I can post a second review, I would. We came back again recently & now Abouda has menu with photos that assists customers who are not used to Tunisian cuisine. This is really nice of them to think of the customers for making these upgrades.
Overall, cozy place, amazing experience, friendly staffs. I highly recommended & hope Abouda will be known by more & more customers.
