Food was cold. We ordered egg benedict with shawarma. The waitress took it back to kitchen & brought new ones but they were still not warm enough. My impression is that they pre-prepare a lot of things so when they put the dishes together , they are cold. Good service though. Lively atmosphere but music a bit too loud 😬

Shay is an absolute gem in Montreal! The food was simply incredible, with every dish bursting with flavor & creativity. The service was outstanding - attentive, friendly, & knowledgeable about the menu. What really impressed me was the music; it was so good that I found myself Shazamming several songs throughout the evening! Overall, I highly recommend Shay for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic dining experience in Montreal.

Really good place to eat for a date. Food is generally great (except maybe the desserts) & drinks are good. It's a bummer they got rid of me & my girlfriend's favorite cocktail which was in a big oriental tea pot.

We went for dinner on a Saturday & the food was amazing! The portions were big so we shared. The kibbe naye & hummus with lamb shawarma are a must try for starters, & our favorite dish was the lamb kebab! The mix of flavours was perfect. & it's halal:) Also the servers were nice & the food came really fast! 10/10 experience.

It's incredible. The food is a wonderful mix of flavours & textures. The service is fantastic with very kind & approachable staff & a very well timed service. My wife & I go here once a year for our anniversary & it is always a wonderful experience. I strongly recommend the Kibbe!
