About us

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.

Homemade juice, Mezze, Braised lamb, Roast lamb & Middle Eastern brunch.

Rumi offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with a genuine Middle Eastern vibe, where flavorful mezze and richly spiced main dishes are beautifully presented and generously portioned. Live music, traditional decor, and a charming terrace garden create an immersive setting that many reviewers describe as memorable. The service is consistently described as attentive and friendly, with staff guiding guests through shared plates and a wide range of options that suit families, friends, and couples. While a few notes mention occasional slower service or a dish not meeting expectations, the overall feedback highlights fresh ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and hospitality that makes diners want to return. It is seen as a beloved Montreal dining destination, celebrated for warmth, vibrant flavors, and a welcoming atmosphere that suits both intimate dinners and group gatherings.

They accommodated a low-carb diet restriction nicely. Great experience. Atmosphere not pretentious, but good (expensive) food.

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.

Service was absolutely perfect!!

En tant que traiteur, si dans mon menu j’offre une trempette, le pain pour tremper ne sera pas vendu à part!
Si le client ne prend pas de naan avec son muhamara il va le manger à la cuillère? Du simple pain pita ne coûte rien… Bref je n’ai pas compris.
Il est très rare que je vais donner mon avis ainsi mais cette fois est nécessaire je crois.

Excellent evening with our friends
Their introduction to the fine food served at the Rumi did not disappoint. Friendly & responsive staff, great good & a good selection ofreasonably priced wines.
Everything was perfect. Small comment on the noise level... difficult to talk when you're just a half a meter away.
