Great little gem in the area! We were 4 people & we shared the family sized chicken shawarma, falafel, & salads, as well as a dish of hummus, muhammara, & pitas.
Everything was absolutely delicious!
The chicken shawarma was juicy, the salads were all really great as well, but the standout was the falafel. They were warm, pillowy, & a billion times better than any pre-made falafel you can find at a Mediterranean restaurant. Definitely the best I've ever tried. The muhammara was really good too, it was my first time trying it & will definitely have it again. The pitas were also great, warm & fluffier than your typical pita.
Hands down the best shawarma I've ever had in my life! The chicken was incredibly flavorful with the perfect level of spice,juicy, tender, & cooked just right. The hummus was rich & creamy, & the pita was fresh, soft, & absolutely delicious. Every bite was amazing. Definitely a must try if you're in the area!
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!
Ordered take out. Had the garlic labneh which was the best labneh I've ever had, the hummus, eggplant, chicken, & turnips. Everything was of high quality & delicious! So worth it.
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.
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.
Fantastic Lebanese restaurant. The plates are nicely put together with a generous portion of meat, lovely salads, fresh bread seasoned with zataar & some amazingly-textured hummus. I found one piece of bread not enough for the amount of meat but that's only because the portion was so good. Flavours were all very complimentary. I think at their price point, table-service would be appropriate but the service is still great nontheless. Atmosphere leans towards the casual side, doesn't quite fit the cuisine but it's still nice. Plan to return on my lunch breaks in the future.
So I'm sure many people will disagree with my ratings but here is why. Food Fries: frozen, pasty, covered in their seasoning which lacks salt & anything to wow you. I don't like ketchup & had to use ketchup to add flavour & moisture & then realized this & stopped - waste of money period! Don't sell inferior product & sell at home made pricing. Picketed beet: very good, crisp & fresh Pita: nicely warmed with zatar seasoning was good Green cabbage salad: with lean on, dill, cabbage & some sort of creamy substance - maybe mayonnaise (mit certain) & tahini not sure, was good Hummus spread topped with seasoning & olive oil, average & too smooth. Shawarma: a big let down. It's as if they cooked the shawarma before, heated it up on a skillet with some oil to moisten it, then sprinkle shawarma seasoning all over it making it dry & over cooked. Not so good. Salad cuit (cooked tomatoes salad) was excellent. Kefta (middle eastern hamburger): not fully cooked, seasoning was so so & lacked moisture. As a non sauce person I found myself needed to dip in to ketchup to add flavour & moisture - & I don't like ketchup. & they are really small burgers so it should be easy to cook it right. Overall I round that the value to not be so good. I just recently went to a middle eastern restaurant offering the same food, & it was plentiful so much so that two people could eat it & the quality was high & fresh as can be. Shawarma moist & juicy & not recooked & overdone with powder seasoning all over it. This is not (to me) the way it is in the Middle East, it's their version. If you're looking for true middle eastern in afraid this is (for the most part) not it. It's not bad, & it's not great, it's just ok - but for the portion I feel pricing a little high. The staff are nice & knowledgeable & the interior is nothing fancy but clean & nice & people aren't packed in so you have good personal space. Parking in the area is a real challenge & for me it's not a place I would go a 3rd time. I did come here when they opened & thought the food was a little better or perhaps my memory escapes me. Nonetheless, À chacun ses goûts taste.
