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.

Wonderful evening. Everything was perfect, awesome. I couldn't thank you enough. Thanks a thousand times. :)
Beau menu, mais un peu trop de plats sucrés avec miel ou sirop d'érable & amandes & pistaches (ex. jarret d'agneau Fez). Aussi, les artichauts en entrée sont beaucoup trop fermes.
Il fait longtemps, plus que 5 ans, je crois, que je n'étais pas venue au restaurant & je gardais une précieux souvenir de ma dernière visite. L'expérience ne s'est pas renouvelée. Je trouvais les plats principaux plutôt ordinaires, peu savoureux & & peu attrayants pour l'oeil.
Ns sommes arrivees demi heure avant notre reservation. Le service" s'est faite desiree. ". Les boulettes d'agneau gouteuses mais trop solide & trop parfumee de sauvagine. Le reste du repas bonne. gout & fraicheur. Ns serons de retour sans doute & changement de place (de la table.)
It's a great restaurant with lots of personality! Mostly Turkish food, with some Moroccan mixed in, we went on Thursday night for a history event & went back on our own on Saturday to enjoy more menu items! The waiter even remembered us! We had a wonderful experience both times, in a clean relaxed atmosphere.The lamb is maybe the best I've EVER had! I would visit again soon, but alas, we're leaving Quebec today, & so Montréal is in the rear view mirror unless we return!View more

Un bon resto quoique un peu cher. L'ambiance & le service étaient excellent, mais les plats m'ont déçu par rapport au souvenir que j'en avais quand j'y suis allé la première fois.View more
La nourriture était excellente à part le pouding un peu trop sucré à mon goût.
J'ai fait une erreur pour le pourboire en donnant seulement 10%, une erreur de ma part. Le service méritait son 15 %.
Il faisait froid dans le resto, on aurait aimé plus de chaleur.
On apprécie toujours cet excellent resto.
Nous avons pris le tagine de poulet & le couscous. Dans le cas du tagine, le poulet était coriace, tout le contraire de ce à quoi on s'attend d'un tagine, sans goût & sec!
Le couscous était aussi très décevant!
Pour quelques dollars de plus, vous pourriez proposer une version avec poulet ce qui donnerait un peu de protéines à ce plat.
Je suis souvent venue chez vous à l'heure du lunch avec des amis & les mezze m'avaient enchantée. Quand je vais au restaurant, c'est pour goûter à quelque chose que je n'ai pas envie de cuisiner tous les jours. Mais dans ce cas-ci, il aurait mieux valu que je fasse moi-meme ces deux plats. Une cliente très très déçue!
I had high expectations of this place but they weren't all met
To be fair the service was excellent, we got our order ready in less than 15 minutes & the atmosphere is great, crowded & a bit noisy but still nice
The decorations are cozy
About food:
I ordered the muhammara, it was delicious & on point but 10$ for a very small mini plate & u need to order the bread separate for 3$
I also tried the KHoudra plate it honestly lacked flavor & the veggies was undercooked, this is a main dish but it definitely doesnt fill u up i dont recommend it it was bland
The fatoush was not as it should be, barely one piece of tomato in the whole bowl & it was all lettuce!
Anything on the menu was overpriced it just felt to me like a rip off
My friends went 2 years ago & said 2 cold mezzas were offered with the plate but now u need to buy them separate for 10$ each. Thats a disappointment.View more
Tout était parfait! Ma demande de table près des fenêtres comblée. Merci à Rumi.
They accommodated a low-carb diet restriction nicely. Great experience. Atmosphere not pretentious, but good (expensive) food.View more

Tasty exotic flavors, well presented in a very cosy yet unique decor. Thanks to the staff for their friendly service
Quaint place with a big enough menu offering, impressive mocktail drink list.
Service was excellent!
A little out of the way from the metro & a bit of a walk but worth it.View more
