I came with my family from Ottawa to get smoked meat. We just wanted to get a take out. The Shawrrtz is making us disappointed with dry, dry, & tasteless meat! But meat from this place made us believe in Montreal Smoky meat again! The waiter told us the food will be ready in 10 min though, but it took us 45 min to get our food! I was prepared to go for 1 star, but when I tasted the food, I changed my mind! Omg what a good tasting smoke meat! Juicy, spicy & delicious! I could feel that black pepper in my month & the taste of Master omg was amazing! 👍 job guys, but you can do better!

Don't believe the hype !! The quality of the meals & the abilities of the staff have definitely been dropping recently. The prices were more reasonable.. they are now charging more.. While having live music is potentially wonderful.. For some reason the much more talented musicians no longer seem to play here. I think this restaurant is riding on its reputation & that reputation is no longer deserved. My last visit in July had myself & a friend waiting 30 minutes on a quiet day for very dry tasteless chicken. Both the food & the service was totally unacceptable. I have always enjoyed the atmosphere but the food & the service are no longer interesting.
