This is a cute little spot to pop into & the food is 10/10! The falafel plate was perfect. The pita bread was warm & seasoned just right. The plate came with hummus which was creamy, garlicky, & delicious. You can pick 2 sides to go with your plate. I chose the cucumber, tomato salad, & the cauliflower fennel mix. Both items were fresh & healthy.
The staff is kind & helpful.

The best hummus, falafel & soft pita ever! 🧆 🥙 The plate is large, the staff is friendly, the menu has options to mix & match or combos to share for a bigger group.
Highly recommended!

Sadly I was disappointed , My review is taste related & menue option oriented.

1- Falafel is to be served with tahini sauce not humus... As Falafel is made of humus...(Dip your humus in humus?) & Falafel is so cheap to make 0.10$ a ball ...that it should come with Tahini sauce even if it's pricier, when we enquired about it, the only option offered was to pay 5$ for a spoon of Tahini on top of a 25$ for a portion of Falafel.

2-You will most definitely need an extra pita bread & you will be charged... So it truly feels like a set up with missing engrients that you will need to'pay as you go' for a complete experience...

3- We also ordered the chicken & i could not finish the chicken ( & I never leave any leftovers ) so much it was oily or greecy chewy ...it Really did not feel like chicken breast more like greecy parts of the chicken, or maybe when they cut chicken so small & then fry cook it & marinate it ... It just tastes like over fried oil & burnt peppers...something was off anys...was it chicken breast? I doubt...

4- the veggies were dull felt like a fast food dull veggies... I do recall having a great experience with the betrave at this place but seems a reduced cost quality ...was tasteless

5-The service was adequate, the place was empty when we were there, nothing to complain about service wise but the limitations mentioned

... Sadly the combination behind not eating great food & over paying did not make of my review a positive one.

Falafel & Muhammara were quite delicious, for the rest, I'd say moderate

The best mediteranean food in Montréal hands down. Their falafel plate is to die for. I have also tried their hummus, salads, & fries. Everything tastes so good.

I have lost count of how many times I have eaten here or ordered online, & every single time it's the same great taste.

Great tasty Mediterranean cuisine. Muhamra & kufta were great. Falafel & shawarma were average. Salats all excellent. It's loud place so if you are looking for place to eat in quite it's not for you.

Met up with some friends who were familiar with this place. A bit of an odd structure where you order at the counter & then go to an assigned table where your food is brought out to you & the rest of your meal is table service. Seems like it would be less confusing if they just did table service, but it wasn't a big deal.

I had falafel for the first time & it was excellent! The hummus could use a little more spice, but overall it was an excellent plate.
