This restaurant deserves a ratings that is above 5. To take a meat-based cuisine of Syria & Lebanon & turn it into 100% vegan one with all famous'meat' dishes veganized..now that is skill. Everything was super tasty, the'kebab', the'chicken', the'shawrma', the'shish tawook' etc...all were amazing & of course traditionally vegetarian dishes were also wonderful like falafel & Fatoosh salad.

The owner Khal & server Halima were super friendly, attentive & very hospitable.

The ambiance is nice & warm.

It is a heaven for a vegan / vegetarian & highly recommended 👌 😊 😋😋😋

Wow, words can't describe how amazing the food was. We had the lentil soup, falafel, kebab (it was FIRE).. I've been grateful to try many plant based restaurants all over, this is a gem. HIGHLY recommend, plus the staff were super welcoming. PS. Don't forget to try the blueberry cheesecake as well!

Pris assiette de brochettes avec salade fattouche en entrée & falafels & sauce la menthe. Tout était excellent accompagné d'un service hors pair de Halima 🥰

Sham vaut vraiment le détour ! Leur moujaddara version boulgour était une belle surprise - parfaitement cuite, savoureuse & réconfortante. Les falafels ? Je ne me souviens pas de la dernière fois que j'en ai mangé d'aussi croquants à l'extérieur & tendres à l'intérieur. & cette sauce tahini-menthe… débile (dans le meilleur sens du terme) - j'en aurais bu un verre ! Mention spéciale aussi au babaganoush, qui éclate en bouche avec son mélange de légumes fondants, presque comme une ratatouille raffinée aux parfums orientaux. Si on me servait ce genre de plats tous les jours, je deviendrais végétarienne sans hésiter.

This is some of the best vegetarian food that we've eaten in Montreal, the food is really flavourful!

We had the falafel with mint hummus & muhammara for appetisers. For mains, we had the Mousaka. For drinks we had called for Tamarin, which just blew our minds!

Excellent vegan food, generous portions. I recommend the friki & the skewers. Standards like falafels & hummus are also excellent.

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! ✨✨✨

It was a good experience there. Service was a bit slow. They burned our falafel. The tea was bland. Waiter was polite & attentive. A bit pricey. It's a clean place. Not a fan of their music.

Excellente nourriture, les assiettes sont tellement bonnes! Le service est toujours super. J'adore le shawarma, les brochettes & les falafels. Les patates sont toujours très bonnes. Tous ceux que j'ai amenés ont adoré!

I can't even begin to explain to you how delicious the food is at Sham Vegan. I have tried their food 4 times now & it gets better & better each time. The falafel is the best I have ever tasted. The garlic sauce - just buy a jar - it is DELICIOUS. Absolutely amazing, healthy vegan food - & I am not a vegan! Who needs meat when you have the flavours of Sham Vegan.

Serveuse très aimable. Cuisine : bon mais mitigé sur certaines saveurs & c'est uniquement végétarien. C'est vite cher, allez-y pour des tapas à partager. Plats uniques servis avec du riz ce qui m'a amené à prendre une petite moussaka & des falafel ce qui est vite revenue cher.

This place was AMAZING! Everything was delicious: the salads & falafel were flavourful, fresh, & beautifully plated. The service was quick & very friendly. My dog was welcomed on the patio, which I appreciated!

Everything was colourful & delicious, one of the tastiest falafels I've tried! & the plant-based skewers were to die for. My only issue would be We felt a little rushed at the end as a reservation was waiting for our table, we didn't have enough time to rest after the meal but overall service was friendly & attentive.

What a great experience! This Syrian restaurant is vegan, but you won't notice if you're a meat lover. The muhamarra, falafel, hummus, & kabobs were all delicious. I only wish we had room for more! The cocktails were amazing as well. The staff were incredibly nice & they have outside dining right on Avenue Mont-Royal! Couldn't wish for more.
