Nous connaissons le Sham depuis ses débuts & chaque visite est un véritable DÉLICE ✨?
Les nombreux choix sur leur menu sont tous incroyablement savoureux! D'ailleurs, le décor & la présentation des assiettes sont tout aussi merveilleux que la nourriture préparée avec soin.
En un mot, ce restaurant est inoubliable! Le Sham fait véritablement rayonner la cuisine végane. Un grand merci à Halima pour son accueil toujours chaleureux!

Quelle merveilleuse découverte!!!
L accueil ultra chaleureux de la charmante proprio, le décor feutré ( les lampes au plafond sont superbes!), la musique d ambiance qui permet de discuter tout en se détendant au son de la playlist & que dire de la nourriture... un vrai délice!

La qualité & la fraicheur des ingrédients, la générosité des plats, la présentation des assiettes & la gentillesse du personnel font de ce restaurant un incontournable pour une soirée réussie. Les cocktails/ mocktails sont exotiques & originaux, chapeau au mixologiste qui a concocté la liste des cocktails!

Végétalien ou carnivore, ce restaurant vous charmera avec ses plats débordants de saveur. Je tiens également à mentionner qu il est évident que les propriétaires mettre leurs coeurs, leurs énergies ( & leurs talents!) pour offrir une expérience exceptionnelle à chaque client qui passe la porte. J y retournerai avec grand plaisir!

Sham truly impressed me! ⭐ Their menu is excellent - a must-try for all lovers of oriental cuisine 🌙. What makes it stand out is that it's entirely vegan. 🌱 It's quite rare to find Middle Eastern dishes made accessible for those who don't eat meat, & Sham truly masters it. The flavors were exceptional, with a beautiful balance of spices & richness. ✨ I thoroughly enjoyed the food, & the decor is tasteful & welcoming. A great spot I'll definitely be returning to!

Sham m'a vraiment impressionnée ! ⭐ Leur menu est excellent - un incontournable pour tous les amateurs de cuisine orientale 🌙. Ce qui rend l'endroit unique, c'est que tout est 100 % vegan. 🌱 C'est assez rare de trouver des plats moyen-orientaux accessibles aux personnes qui ne mangent pas de viande, & Sham le fait à merveille. Les saveurs sont incroyables, avec un bel équilibre d'épices. ✨ J'ai beaucoup aimé ce restaurant, & la décoration est tout aussi réussie : élégante & chaleureuse. Une très belle découverte !

This wonderful restaurant offers a diverse plant-based menu with plenty of gluten-free options, making it a fantastic choice.

We had heard good things about this place, but we were still pleasantly surprised by just how good the food was! Each dish was a lovely combination of fresh ingredients, resulting in creative & delicious food.

During our visit, we enjoyed a mix of items from the regular menu & the brunch menu, & everything was simply exceptional. The tapas-style dining allowed us to explore a variety of flavors, & we could not get enough! One standout was the wonderfully crafted omelette with potatoes.

To complement our meal, we enjoyed their giant cocktails, which were not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The entire dining atmosphere was a treat for the senses; the decor was absolutely stunning, featuring a comfortable & zen aesthetic that made us feel right at home.

Lastly, I must mention the service, which was exceptionally good. The staff were attentive & genuinely welcoming, contributing to the overall positive experience.

They offer a unique blend of flavors & experiences in a beautiful setting, & we will be returning to try more of their incredible menu!

Very cozy restaurant with beautiful decor. I had the shawarma plate & it was so delicious. My kids enjoyed their super fluffy pancakes for brunch. The service was amazing, the two ladies working there were so friendly. It's a very kid friendly place! It was my first time there & I'll definitely be going back when I'm in the area!

Sham Restaurant in Montreal left our family with the most vibrant memories! From the very first minute, we were captivated by its unforgettable atmosphere: a cozy interior with touches of Eastern decor, soft lighting, & the delicate aroma of spices created a warm & welcoming vibe. Traditional music playing in the background added charm, transporting us to distant lands.

The cuisine exceeded all expectations! Every dish was a true work of art. We tried succulent kebabs, hummus that melted in the mouth with a smoky aftertaste, delicious falafels & crispy fries. We adored the sweet baklava, unique homemade lemonades & tea.

A special thanks to the staff! The service was impeccable: the waitstaff attentively accommodated our requests, helped us choose kid-friendly dishes, & smiles never left their faces. You could truly feel how much they value & care for their guests.

We left with full stomachs & hearts. Sham has become a gem we'll return to again & again. If you're looking for a place with soulful ambiance & food that delivers culinary bliss - this is it! We've already recommended it to friends & are planning our next visit. Thank you for a magical evening! ✨✨✨

Bonne ambiance, très belle décoration. Excellent service. Les plats étaient très bons mais chers. Les desserts étaient vraiment décevants.

Premièrement, je suis un mega fan de viande & habituellement, je ne suis jamais exité d'essayer un restaurant vegan ou végé. J'ai enfin trouver le deuxième restaurant vegan pour lequel je serais prêt à retourner me bourrer la face avec bonheur. (Le premier étant Pushap, le resto indien.) Mon expérience était satisfaisante à tout point, goût, quantité, service & ambiance. Je ne me suis pas du tout ennuyé de la viande. Les plats sont très bien exécuté & goûteux. Le plat de fruit du Jacquier façon "pulled pork" m'a frapper & le plat de style shawarma m'a juste envoyé au sol pour le compte de 1000. On ne peux pas faire la différence entre la version vegan & le kefta original. Les humus sont délicieux, le mouhamara est excellent aussi. Le thé traditionnel est probablement le meilleur que j'ai pu avoir l'occasion de boire. Ils offrent une belle & grande gamme de bières de microbrasserie. En plus les plats sont beau. Le décors est élaboré, on essaie de nous plonger dans un vibe méditerranéen. Le staff est très serviable & amical, l'ambiance est vraiment nice. Je vous conseille fortement d'essayer la cuisine de Sham & j'envoie le défi au carnivore de ce monde, vous ne serez pas déçu! Bon appétit !

We walked an hour to get here & we were definitely not disappointed. Amazing food, great taste, vibrant colors & nutritious. The decor, seating & general atmosphere was also very well done. The service was also exceptional. We had a great experience & this has been our best meal in Montreal.

We had a fabulous experience at this restaurant & will definitely be back. I'm interested to try their brunch as well. The decor is lovely/homey, food generous portions & very flavourful, a bit pricey but so are even not so good restaurants these days so this really felt worth it & we can home with leftovers. It's a huge menu so next time we will be able to try new dishes & know that it's not necessary to order so much! The lovely pot of mint tea really added to the meal. Only thing I wasn't so crazy about was the cheesecake which tasted like butter. Will try a different dessert next time. Big enough to share three ways.

I had an exceptional experience at this vegan restaurant. Whether seated inside or on the terrace, the pleasant weather made it enjoyable. The open kitchen provided an engaging view of meal preparation, & the staff maintained cleanliness with hairnets. As a vegan restaurant, its diverse, intriguing, & delicious menu is served in beautiful, high-quality dishes. Everything was clean, with fresh ingredients & hot meals. The owners, a kind Syrian & Moroccan couple, add authentic decorations, including impressive handmade artworks. Highly recommended.
