My friends & I went here for a girls night, we didn't know what to order. So the owner ordered for us, he gave us 2 appetizers & 2 meals. For a group who is not vegan, the food & the flavour were really good. The place was nicely decorated too. 100% would go back again.

HIGHLY recommend this Syrian restaurant that is entirely vegan! My friend & I wanted to try out this place last month & we were thoroughly impressed. We ordered the'Plate 2 Skewers' from the'From the grill' section. I chose the lamb & spicy chicken flavours for the skewers - they were both so tasty! It came with crispy fries, rice, & salad. The portion is huge, but definitely doable in one sitting, so come with an appetite! What made our experience that much better was our server, Halima. She was very smiley & dancey with us. So personable, kind, & fun. She even brought us complimentary desserts. We had a blast interacting with her! We would come back solely for her!

Absolutely one of the best vegan restaurants I've tried so far. I'm not vegan myself, but this place might just convert me! The food is bursting with flavour & it actually tastes better than the real stuff. Can't wait to come back & try more from the menu ✨

If you are vegan you might like this place but if, like us, you are the friends of a vegan person who suggested this place for dinner, & if you're used to traditional Syrian food with real meat & real flavours, you will find the food unappealing & a bit gross. No amount of'fake chicken' made with soy or mushroom can replace the taste & texture of real shish taouk. Otherwise the restaurant is ok, service is friendly if not a bit pushy at times (they will push you to order specific items on the menu that are on the pricy side, & they will push you to leave a review before leaving). It's also on the expensive side & not great value for your money (Middle Eastern food is typically known for its generous portions).

The brunch was delicious, & our server was very nice & friendly! My only complaint would be the portion size for the price charged. My friend & I were still a bit hungry after the omelette, so we split the chocolate banana pancakes as a dessert (good size portion). Then we were stuffed for the day!

Could be better to have 2 omelettes on a plate (since legumes aren't super calorie-dense) or salad that takes up 1/2 the plate instead of a 1/4, & then have a separate bowl for tater totes (which were also delicious).

LOVE the flavours - just wish it was more affordable so I could visit regularly :)

Also super grateful you're open for brunch till 4 PM on weekdays. The music was fun too!

Thank you 💚

The food was incredible. The dips were awesome. The vegan kebab was epic. I've never had a tastier vegan kebab that had so much flavour & texture. All of the food here was delicious. You will be happy if you do here.

Wow what an incredible restaurant! The food was fabulous! No beyond beef fake meat. All soy/mushroom/jack fruit based. Amazing flavours. I wish this was in Vancouver!

Brunch is insane. Omelette zaatar with chickpeas is really good. The latte had a delicious nutty flavou

Unbelievable flavours, everything was fresh & well presented. I came here to try the Labneh, something I miss since giving up dairy & this vegan version did not disappoint. My non vegan hubby loved the savoury pancake at brunch. Highly recommend Sham.

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!

Really very lovely. Falafal plate was so delicious, not dry & had an abundance of flavour. Jalah juice I think it was called was the nicest juice over ever had. A very happy tourist visit, gutted there's nothing like it where I live

Overpriced, barely any flavour. The kofte dish we tasted only tomatoes & tomato paste. The mixed grills, the skewers are tiny & barely any additions in the plate. The service was slow even though only a few people were there. Not impressed at all.

By far the best vegan restaurant in Montreal! My boyfriend & I have tried many vegan restaurants over the years but none compare to sham! First of all the service is great, the employees are super sweet & cater to all your needs & questions. The food is incredible. So flavourful, fresh & good portions! We have come for supper & breakfast & we will for sure be coming back time & time again! My favourite thing to order is the lemon mint juice it is so fresh & delicious! The egg burger has a tasty sauce inside that gives a wonderful flavour to the mushrooms & onions, & the white sauce that is served on the side of the tots is so creamy! The pancakes are nice & crunchy on the outside & fluffy in the middle. The omelette tastes just like real egg but is very light! The shami kebabs are definitely something you need to try, such amazing flavour. All in all 10/10 across the board!
