J'y ai brunché. Le menu est très intéressant, ce qui change des menus brunch traditionnels nord américain. Une belle découverte. Nos plats étaient bons & savoureux. Le service était parfait, chaleureux & efficace. J'aurais préféré une ambiance sonore plus calme (la musique est un peu forte, ce qui force tout le monde à parler fort.) Mais c'est une question de préférence. Pour le reste, allez-y sans hésiter.
Great food, better service. We came here on a Saturday & ordered a whole lot of food & cocktails & it was all fantastic. The lamb sandwich is exquisite & their homemade hummus is the best I've ever tasted. PERFECT zataar pita bread as well.

Even though I wasn't particularly hungry, every dish completely won me over! It wasn't just me-my companions, & even the people at the next table, kept exclaiming: "Wow, C'est tellement délicieux! C'est vraiment, vraiment bon!" I glanced over & noticed that their dishes were different from ours. We exchanged smiles, both clearly impressed! First Dish: Beef Tartare The highlight was how beautifully the flavors came together-the cheese, onion, mint, pomegranate, sweet vinegar, & beef blended so harmoniously! Each element had its distinct taste while perfectly complementing the others. It felt very Arabian & incredibly unique! Second Dish: Tomahawk Lamb Chops One bite & I was hooked-this is exactly what lamb chops should taste like! So authentically Middle Eastern & absolutely delicious. The smoky charcoal aroma mingled with spices, & the meat was perfectly balanced between lean & fatty. I couldn't resist picking it up with my hands to savor every bite! Third Dish: Dessert We ordered a random dessert, & it blew me away! I'm not a fan of desserts, but I didn't leave a single bite of this one. From the first spoonful, the cream melted in my mouth-cool but not icy, rich but not heavy. Then came an explosion of orange blossom & jasmine fragrances, so aromatic that I felt like I'd been transported to the garden of an Arabian palace. The base was light & crisp, layered with pistachio paste & nuts, delicate & flavorful. It was truly incredible! Lastly, a big shoutout to our server, Pamela, who was attentive & warm throughout the meal. Her excellent service made our dining experience even more delightful.
So I went with a friend for brunch my first time at Shay on Sunday at noon. The place is very modern, clean & chic without being pretentious about. Staff & vibe were very chill & music was good too so ambience was great . We sat at the bar as all the tables were full but it's very comfortable regardless. Ordered the lamb Reuben & their baklava pancakes which they are kind of known for & it's well merited. More a dessert than a meal but still excellent as was the lamb sandwich which came with roasted potatoes & Cole slaw sides. Bonus in summer they have a terrace but it was too cold when I went.
Shay has not disappointed on any of the visits I've made, & the most recent one is no different. From the warm greeting upon entering, the great ambiance, phenomenal service, delicious cocktails & a menu that makes it hard not to order one of everything, it all adds up to an amazing dining experience. Pamela, our server made the evening even better. With an impeccable sense of timing for when we needed things, top-notch recommendations, great sense of humour & upbeat demeanor, she is an absolute gem. Looking forward to the next time.
It was amazing, Pamela is so nice! She is supper friendly & recommended us lamb & Armenian kebab, the quality of the food was perfect! Such a luxurious restaurant!

Love the food here. Well presented dishes, tasted so good ! The staff are very lovely & friendly! The ambience is so chic! So much action to sit at the bar ! Highly recommended place for a Fun date, or group of friends Also I personally found at the table are family friendly for brunch too. Cons : Coffee ☕ is not that good ! Again it's not a place to go there to have coffee. Well at least, I hope they would get someone to really learn how to make coffee would be a plus.
This was our favorite restuarant / meal of our vacation. Atmosphere-wise - it was more fancy inside than I thought it would be. Not to say that my jeans were out of place, but it looked very high end. Our service was outstanding & our waiter was very attentive & gave great recommendations. The manager even came over to see how everything was. Food-wise - we got (in order of preference): Armenian Kebab; Mouhamara (red pepper / pomegranate); Lamb Kebab; Brussel Sprouts. The combination of all of it was a lot of food - so next time, I would ditch the Brussel Sprouts - which was our least fave. It wasn't to say that we didn't like them - but compared to the other outstanding dishes, they paled in comparison. The Armenian Kebab was fantastic & a huge dish with potatoes, too. The Mouhamara was different than what we had in the States - but even better. The Lamb Kebab was also delicious with the pickled red onions. We loved the restaurant & would recommend it to all!
I heard so many good things about Shay & it really lived up to the hype. Our serve Dom was great - super super friendly & helpful when we couldn't decide what to eat because everything sounded amazing. We popped in on a Saturday for a much needed hangover brunch & we lucky enough to be sat immediately without a reservation. It was pretty busy though. This was the perfect mix of savory carbs & sweet treats. We had the sausage hash & lamb eggs Benedict first & then moved to the baklava pancakes to finish. Definitely recommend sharing these because they are super decadent.
Had my surprise bridal party at Shay for brunch this morning, what a wonderful afternoon. I have celiac disease & the manager Damien made sure I had special catered dishes that were safe & delicious! All my guests were astonished by the food, service & ambiance. Would 100% recommend & will definitely be going again!

Great ambiance. Outstanding service from the whole team. Special mention to our waitress Dominique who took great care of us. Fair prices. I recommend.
I was visiting from out of town on Saturday & I stumbled upon this restaurant & boy am I glad that I did. Dom truly was one of the best servers we've ever had. Everything she recommended was delicious (lamb chops, tuna crudo , & drinks). The service was amazing. Food & drinks came out fast. Dom made some light hearted conversation every time she came to check on us. I'll make sure to come back when I visit Montreal again!
Place looks great, staff is friendly. They were pushing us to get the group menu at $95 a head instead of letting us order our own meals. We ended up being able to order ourselves. The lamb chops were 2 cm thick & incinerated, literally charcoal. Portions were very small, food overpriced. Very mediocre taste as well. $120 for one person. Wouldn't revisit, many better options.
Went there for the first time during brunch hour with my friends. Absolutely loved the ambiance of the place. Had the Labneh dip with pita bread as well as the Manakek Hash as my main. It was super good. Our server, Claudine, made sure that we had an amazing experience. Loved her service & I do hope to see her again in future visits at Shay.

Loved this new place. Not only they have good Taouk Sandwiches with sumak Fries but also great desserts in the donut & Pistachio Canoli. Will definitely come try it again when restaurants open, the decor looked awesome Since went twice for brunch & dinner. Brunch is nice with some good stuffs to try a mix of Mediterranean touch with local food. Tried the shakshooka & pancake baklava. Went for dinner lately & tried a mix of appetizers: The coliflower zaatar is the best Tuna tartare is great with fattoush style bread crumbles gives is a nice touch The basturma with Melon & labneh has a nice touch. Shish barak with a nice yogurt sauce is a must The batata harra & grilled asparagus are a nice addition to the main meals of Lamb, shish taouk & Fish we tried.
What a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, especially the lamb kebab & lamb chops. The hummus, eggplant dish, & falafel were also great. Staff were very friendly & accommodating. We are on vacation coming from the US & had a great time!
Nous étions deux pour souper & avons pris les falafels, la pieuvre, les choux de bruxelles, le crudo de dorade & les carottes cuites aux charbons. Tout était super à l'exception des carottes qui ne goûtaient rien. Nous avons demandé un surplus de miel qui n'est jamais arrivé à la table. Pour l'ambiance du restaurant c'est très feutré & intime, vraiment agréable. Le seul point négatif de notre expérience a été le service. Ce n'était pas une catastrophe, mais notre serveur semblait inintéressé par notre table, car nous étions 2 & toutes les autres tables étaient de 4.
