Visited Shay for a brunch while in Montreal for the weekend from Toronto. Food photos online look unreal, but in real life the food was very meh… we ordered the Shay breakfast sandwhich, bun was not toasted & soggy with heavy mayo & gross iceberg lettuce… made the meal almost inedible… coffee was alright but was charged 10$ for a very small iced vanilla latte. They also charged for hot sauce, without notifying us. I wouldn't recommend skipping this spot, & exploring a different spot … overall disappointing on all fronts

I don't understand how anyone can give this restaurant a bad review. The food is incredible, the presentation is eye catching & the service & care is attentive & helpful. We had one of the best dinners there during the 2026 Montreal GP. Despite how busy the restaurant was, the staff spent the time necessary to ensure we were cared for. They recommended dishes that were spot on. Thank you Julian & Paulina for a truly exceptional experience. We will be back on our next trip to Montreal. We highly recommend Shay.

Absolutely fantastic experience every time! The food is consistently amazing-fresh, flavorful, & beautifully prepared. The service is equally outstanding, with a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.

A special mention to Aboudi, who is always a pleasure to deal with. Professional, attentive, & genuinely caring, he goes above & beyond to ensure every visit is enjoyable. It's rare to find such excellent food & service all in one place. Highly recommend!

We are foodies who frequently visit Montreal to dine. Shay was a wonderful find in Griffintown. The restaurant specializes in Lebanese dishes with influences from other Middle Eastern & Mediterranean cuisines. Every course we ordered from the mezza dips to dessert was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the Armenian kebab which was tender & tasty, so satisfying. We sat at the bar of this classy restaurant & were glad we did. Gaspard, our waiter/bartender, was a charm. He explained all the dishes & made spot on suggestions. He was attentive but not overly so. Shay offers a winning combination of delicious food & a welcoming vibe.
