Beautiful & elegant decor, delicious food & enjoyable ambiance! They probably have ONE OF THE BEST Fattouch salads I've ever had & some of the TASTIEST brussel sprouts (10/10 for both)! I highly recommend getting both these dishes! The "Octopus & Soudjouk Sausage" dish was okay (6/10), the octopus was a little overcooked & the charcoaled/grilled tentacles tasted bitter. The "Shish Taouk" plate was also quite good (8/10), the tomatoes were juicy & tasty, the toum was delicious, the potatoes were well baked but the chicken had also this little bitterness due to the grill but the overall seasoning was delicious! Will definitely come back :)

Great food, portions are okayish - don't expect Toronto level portions. & bread is served only with select few dishes, unlike Toronto restaurants where they continuously keep serving breads.

The portions are on the smaller side & I would not recommend the avocado toast (there wasn't much avocado on the bread) but otherwise their breakfast/brunch dishes are unique & flavorful! The best thing on their menu is the Baklava Pancakes, don't leave without trying them!

Mentioned to the waiter that I wanted to order vegan dishes, which he was very happy to point out on the menu. However, the kitchen did not deliver, as they left in the cheese & butter on the avocado toast, & on the replacement dish, still left in butter.

Service was good. The staff was attentive & welcoming. The food was slightly above room temperature, the lamb from the lamb shawarma benedict was dry. The tatter tots from their morning potatoes felt oily because of the ambient temperature of the dishes altogether. For the price & quality of the food, I wouldn't come back unless they fix those.

Absolutely gorgeous restaurant serving contemporary & revisited Lebanese/Middle Eastern dishes conceived to be shared. Apart from creative, the food is of excellent quality. Unfortunately, I was alone so I couldn't try as many dishes as I'd have liked. In any case, the fatoush-inspired tuna tartare is a must have. The lamb kebab, although very good, was a bit stronger in terms of taste, so it became a bit too much for only myself. They have a large selection of cocktails too. The Apricot Margarita with Zataar & Sumac was very good (although I would've preferred it to be sour instead of sweet). The one thing that could be improved is the by-the-glass wine selection.

Went with a group of 5, we shared 9 dishes, everything was amazing. Highly recommend. Best place we ate at while we were in Montreal.

If you want to experience Lebanese cuisine, then, SHAY is your place. The chefs .3631201495978E+24; menu is described great. The waiters are provided exceptional service. We ordered five different dishes from falafel to Kebab to Humus along with a Lebanese wine 🍷. Truly enjoyed our dinner at SHAY. 🙂🙂

Loved the food. Loved the attention. Loved the mock tails, but I would've rather have 2 services than one whole service. I had ordered the food. I was confirmed that it was shareable dishes, but I would've rather have my entrées together separately from my main dishes. Other than that, I loved it

We have been coming to Shay since its opening & have always loved it. This time was different. We wondered if there was a new chef & asked the server. When she asked us why we were wondering, we explained that the food tasted different. We even told her that one of the dishes we ordered was very oily (the roasted broccoli) & would to eat it. She took it away without asking if we wanted to substitute it. We were hoping not be to charged for it but it was on the bill. She confirmed that there was a new chef in the kitchen, & informed the manager of our comments, but he did not seem concerned. Even the music that we usually love & creates a cool ambiance was not the same. The owner usually greets us warmly & exchanges a few words with us when we come, but he was unfortunate not there that evening. Overall, a disappointing experience at a place we used to love. We will not be coming again.
