Restaurant Rumi offers you a culinary experience of the Silk Road that once crossed Central Asia and the Middle East. A route that linked cities, oases and markets... great traditions, formidable kingdoms.
The Silk Road was also the route of spices, generous in fragrance and flavor. We invite you to be inspired by the spirit of the travelers, merchants and pilgrims who, for centuries, exchanged goods, riches and important cultural elements.
A spirit of discovery and openness.
We aim to create a hospitable atmosphere conducive to meaningful encounters. A setting in which to take the time to restore oneself in the sense of regaining strength and meaning.
As far as possible, our cuisine favors local, organic and sustainable agriculture. All the meat we serve is halal.
We give priority to fresh, local produce.

C'est à chaque fois une expérience tellement agréable, autant sur le plan de la nourriture que du service, & l'ambiance est inégalée. Le seul hic, c'est qu'il n'y a plus le magnifique gâteau chocolat-cardamome, qui était la cerise sur le... gâteau d'une soirée au Rumi! En attendant qu'il ne réapparaisse sur le menu, je recommande fortement le Djaj meshwy, la kefta, le labneh & les aubergines farcies.View more
This restaurant is a real gem! A delicious fusion of north African & middle east cuisines. I have had both brunch & dinner there. It is really rare to find a good brunch restaurant that offers reservations & thus no lineups! The service is very friendly & the server helped us with some special dietary restrictions to make the meal excellent for everyone. A refreshing menu in a intimate setting in the middle of the plateau. Highly recommend. 2 or 3 stairs at the entrance for accessibility.View more
We used to visit Rumi every so often before Covid & loved their brunch. We came recently to see that their menu has changed. The food is not as tasty as before. Naan break is even worse than store bought. So sad.View more
nous y sommes allés pour le brunch. Cuisine délicieuse, service impeccable, beau décoView more
I've been going to Rumi for over 15 years. I've celebrated birthday & other special occasions. It used to be my go to place for brunch, especially in the summer. However, since the pandemic the quality has gone down quite drastically. I went there last night & I am afraid to say it may be my last time. It is just not anywhere close to being on par with what it was. With the huge selection of excellent restaurants in the city, it doesn't make sense for me to keep going to a place hoping it'll be as good as it once was. It's very unfortunate as I know how hard it has been for restaurants to keep their staff but I just can't spend $120 & walk away so disappointed. Service was good, as usual.
Merci beaucoup pour l'accueil & la bonne bouffe. Un brunch très sympathique!
On a passé une agréable après midi, les plats étaient très bons, le service impeccable le serveur était gentil & souriant. Je recommanderai volontiers pour un brunch ou souper.
toujours délicieux! depuis plusieurs décennies ce resto demeure mon préféré. Un endroit vraiment different & chaleureux pour diner savoureux & que dire du brunch...ou lala!
Nous avons été bien reçu par un personnel charmant dans une ambiance chaleureuse, le repas était excellent & la note plus que raisonnable.
Une expérience agréable, un brunch du dimanche entre amis que nous avons étiré en prenant tranquillement le thé.
Parfait
We love coming to Rumi for brunch in the summer. Such a wonderful change from most brunch menus & so fresh & delish. Service was (as usual) great with our waitress yesterday. The heat kept a lot of people away so we really appreciated the staff letting us stay as long as we wanted at our table under the shade of a tree on the terrace. Chill people are the BEST! One of Montreal's most charming neighbourhoods too. So grateful that Covid has not shut this resto down, like so many other eateries in the city.
I love this restaurant. The terrasse is beautiful, the food is fantastic & the service is on point. I have been for dinner & recently for brunch, I was pleasantly surprised & can't wait to go back!
J'ai adoré mon brunch. Cependant mon mari préférait l'ancienne du chakchouka. Comme c'était son plat préféré, je ne sais pas quand nous reviendrons.
fantastic alternative to the usual brunch fair. Long live merguez. Mint tea & mint lemonade were especially good.
Decor was beautiful.
J'ai essayé Rumi tant pour le brunch que pour le souper : tout est absolument excellent. Cuisine savoureuse, de haute qualité, qui fait voyager. Bonne sélection de vin (bio, nature, etc.). Service très courtois.
Excellent food, great ambiance & fantastic service! Have tried Rumi's food for lunch, brunch & dinner & they always deliver at their best!
We had a lovely brunch at Rumi this weekend. It was our first time visiting & we were charmed by the eclectic, mystical- themed interior & friendly service. We tried two different omelettes both of which were delicious & really flavourful. We also had the Moroccan chicken pastry with cinnamon sprinkled in top (forget the name) which was like a dance on our taste buds. All the food seems to be prepared with love & care in the tradition of Sufi practice & you can really feel & taste the good energy here. We ended our meal with a pot of Persian Cardamom tea served in an exquisite silver decorated pot. It was the most fragrant cardamom tea I have ever had & a perfect way to end our meal. Would definitely recommend this place!
Très bon menu brunch! Le personnel est très accueillant & sympathiques
Awesome brunch Sunday. Everything was wonderful from all the usual favorite meze, merguez & mint tea to the tagines & omelettes. Vegetarians & meat lovers had many choices & left happy with the food, service & ambience.
