Simply an amazing experience. The staff was full smiles & welcoming when we came in the door. Our waitress, Esmeralda, was all smiles, attentive & sincere in making our experience a great one. Bus boys were also amazing.

Food was very flavourful & the labneh baklava pancakes were so good, I don't have the right word to give them justice. A must try!

& warm goodbye by all when leaving. It doesn't get better than this!

The lamb in the Shawarma Benedict was a bit too meaty, & the avocado croissant was sour, which was unexpected but still light & nice. worth trying when visiting Montreal

Went to Shay for the first time to share with some friends, & Maxime truly maximized our experience! From his outstanding service to his nice smile, he made sure we had the best time. He was funny, kind, & patient - the perfect mix to make the evening feel effortless. His care added so much to an already amazing culinary experience. & the food? Absolutely delicious!

Thanks to Maxime, we got the maximum out of our night at Shay. Definitely coming back & bringing family & friends to enjoy it too!
