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.
The dining experience at Rumi blends warm ambiance, generous portions, and a rich mosaic of Middle Eastern flavors that many reviewers describe as authentic and inviting. Dishes like mezze and mains are praised for their depth, with several notes on fresh ingredients, thoughtful seasoning, and creative twists that still honor tradition. Service is repeatedly described as attentive and friendly, with a welcoming atmosphere and occasional live music that enhances the mood. The terrace, decor, and overall value receive frequent compliments, making it a favorite for family gatherings, celebrations, and casual dinners alike.
Le seul bémol, c'est les quantités. La nourriture est très bonne, magnifique, rien à dire, mais les quantités que ce soit en entrée ou en plat, je les trouve moyenne à petite.

Everything about this place is great! The joint has a homie & non pretentious vibe, the wine selection & service were great as usual My favourite thing to do here is get all the hot & cold mezzeh's with fresh nan & share. f you're a group, do it! You can't go wrrong These guys have been around for over 2 decades & it shows, they know what they're doing. Thanks Rumi! It was an amazing & delicious evening once again 🙏❤️⭐️💯
Absolutely delicious food & drinks. We only tried non-alcoholic but they had some incredibly refreshing juices & satisfying teas. The food was also really fresh & came quickly. The best babaganoush I've ever had! We tried the fish, lamb special & chicken djaj & they were all excellent!
Nourriture délicieuse très bien apprêtée. Nous étions un groupe de 7 & tout le monde était content. Le restaurant était bizarrement vide pour un samedi soir par contre, ce qui crée une ambiance un peu plate. Je recommanderais quand même, mais pour un vibe relax & cozy.
Bonne cuisine & agréable ambiance,la cuisine est très bonne par contre le service à table n est pas des meilleure,mais malheureusement c est le cas partout au Québec les serveurs n aime pas trop leurs travail

Très belle soirée en terrasse hier. Nourriture délicieuse & service très sympathique. Nous avions des allergies au gluten & de nombreuses options pour nous régaler.
Décevant : ce n'est plus ce que c'était. Cela faisait environ 4 ans que nous n'étions pas allés & nous fûmes très déçus. Bon service, magnifique terrasse mais nourriture décevante en quantité & au niveau du goût. Une fattouche très peu garnie & sans airelles de pomme grenade en portion assez petite, des kebbés végétaux beaucoup trop pâteux & secs sur un humus sans intérêt. Le muhammara était somme toute assez correct sans plus. Les pains nan, pas frais frais, arrivés froids sans beurre. La soupe aux lentilles, bonne par contre mais servie tiède. Le halloumi, bien grillé mais 2 petites tranches pour...16$? Voyons... Nous aurions pris un kunefe mais bien qu'au menu, il n'y en avait pas. Bref rien de "wow" cette fois. Ont-ils changé de chef, de propriétaire? Ce n'est pas le Rumi de nos souvenirs. Y retournerons-nous? Probablement pas.
Always a pleasure to dine at Rumi's. Fairly priced, the food was delicious with fresh ingredients & portions a good size, we love the eastern atmosphere & the service was friendly & efficient. The Moroccan tea to finish is a must! All in all Rumi's is a perennial favourite. We will of course be back.
Un lieu merveilleux pour fêter son anniversaire en compagnie de ses amis!! Wonderful place to have lunch or dinner with a great chef who cooks food that you will remember !!
This place is great!! One little hidden gem in Montreal, it deserves way more attention than it gets. It's affordable for the portions, the food is amazing & the ambiance is top notch. Very underrated!!
