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.

via LibroWe've been going to Rumi for years now, it's an old favorite. We have had some nice birthday parties & other get-togethers here. I had not been since the COVID-crisis started. We caught a table near the window this time & tasteful plexiglass divisions had been suspended to isolate the tables. The terrasse was well occupied on this slightly chilly end-of-summer evening. The service was very attentive, the food was delicious as always, & we found a good & reasonable bottle of wine on the wine menu. I love their mezze & was sad to see that they did not offer the mixed mezze option any more. We opted for the hodja with some naan bread instead & it did not disappoint. We also shared a kibbeh &, again, it was incredibly good. The main, a chicken & rice dish, was good but the mezze are the real star at this restaurant.
via LibroGood service & okay food . Have wanted to go for years. Some pleasantly good surprises: butternut squash dish; halloum. But some very big disappointments: grilled chicken on fat touch was tough & over cooked. Lamb main was very salty. Chicken in puff pastry: the pastry was tough. For the price I hope to find a better Iranian restaurant as it is a cuisine I love.
via LibroNot the first time I go to Rumi; in fact, it is one of my favourite restaurants! Food is good, interesting menu, & service is first-class.
via LibroExcellent repas & service hors pair. Gardez-vous une petite ( pas trop petite!) place pour la crème glacée, à elle seule, elle vaut le détour!
via LibroWe had a very pleasant evening on the balcony, as requested. Our server was delightful & added to our enjoyment. The food was very good, including appetizers, mains & desserts. We shared an excellent & reasonably priced bottle of organic wine. Thank you, Rumi!

Une cuisine exceptionnelle. Authenticité, saveurs d'orient & souci de la présentation.
Service sympathique. Bien conseillé pour le choix des vins.
via LibroUne amie m'a fait découvrir ce restaurant. J'ai l'habitude d'une cuisine plus "traditionnelle" dois-je avouer (France, Italie, Thaïlande, Vietnam, Chinoise etc). J'ai été ENCHANTÉ de mes découvertes de cette cuisine très inspirée/inspirante. Notre serveur a été d'une aide précieuse dans ses descriptions & recommandations. Nous nous sommes régalés d'aliments extrêmement savoureux & joliment présentés sur l'assiette. Ce fut un "festival" de saveurs & de couleurs. En plus, j'ai la conscience tranquille d'avoir mangé des aliments frais & bons pour la santé. Tout le monde y trouve son compte (carnivores, végétariens, végétaliens). Ce fut donc une expérience mémorable & que je répéterai avec GRAND plaisir ! Merci à cette amie qui m'a fait découvrir ce restaurant Rumi ! Merci aussi au personnel du service & de la cuisine pour ce moment de purs plaisirs.
via LibroToujours délicieux, superbe terrasse, personnel sympathique! (& ouvert le dimanche!)
via LibroWe 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.
via LibroThis was our first visit & the four of us were really impressed with the food. We would just suggest that the staff be a bit more friendly.
via LibroRUMI est depuis longtemps, notre resto préféré pour un dépaysement & une expérience différente des autres restos. Nous célébrons l'été sur leur jolie terrasse depuis plus de 15 ans. C'est toujours le fête 🤗!

Unfortunately, the food & service weren't as great as used to be. The appetizers were as tasty as before but the main plates' quality & flavour were a bit disappointing. The service personnel wasn't attentive, not checking if we needed a second drink or not.
Overall, it was very different from the last experience I had back in the early 2020, but considering they survived during the pandemic, the new menu is adopted to the current condition. Will try again but not anytime soon.
