Quelle merveilleuse découverte. La nourriture était délicieuse - plusieurs options viandes, fruits de mer & végétarien, chacune aussi merveilleuse que l'autre. Notre serveur Sabri était charmant & chaleureux. Nous avons tellement apprécié note expérience & avons déjà hâte d'y retourner.
Une super belle découverte au coeur du Plateau. Service impeccable, ambiance chaleureuse, plats délicieux; il faut absolument essayer l'agneau au miel. Nous avons été accueillis par Sabri, qui a été hyper gentil & professionnel. Une très bonne variété de mets au poisson, poulet, agneau, & options végétariennes aussi. C'est à refaire !
Such an amazing experience! The owner himself served us & shared cool & interesting stories about his culture & the food. Everything was fresh & delicious, & the way it was presented really made it feel like we were in Tunisia, not Montreal. Highly recommend!
My first time in a Tunisian restaurant, I loved it! I thought it had a lot of flavor but nothing strong, more like homemade food, made with patience & love. The prices are super, the whole experience. I recommend 10 out of 10

Le meilleur restaurant tunisien à Montréal (& j'en ai testé plusieurs)! Les plats sont hyper bons, savoureux, authentiques & frais! La crème brûlée est carrément la meilleure que j'ai mangée de ma vie, & le service est excellent! Le serveur (propriétaire je crois) m'a même préparé une petite assiette de couscous à emporter pour mon enfant après que je lui aie demandé, & gratuitement! On va y retourner c'est sûr & oublier tous les autres restaurant tunisiens à Montréal.
Nous étions un groupe de 8, & nous sommes ravis de l'expérience : mets délicieux, tous! Un service excellent, gentillesse & finesse. Nous reviendrons sûrement!!
Moi & mon mari sommes venu manger & le service étais excellent ! La nourriture 5 étoiles , je recommande fortement le brick au crevettes & la soupe chorba . Définitivement la meilleure en ville . en repas principale nous avons prit l'agneau & la merguez WOW super ! Nous reviendrons à coup sur je recommande :)

Everything about our experience was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, & the portion sizes were just right. The environment was incredibly cozy, especially the bench seating, which was a delight to use & added to the overall charm. Sabri provided exceptional service-he was kind, attentive, & incredibly helpful. He patiently explained every dish in detail, making our experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place & cannot wait to return to explore more of the menu.
It was perfect. It was amazing experience eating here, with a very good atmosphere & very nice staff. Sabri was a very good waiter & smiled all the time. He was very patient & answered all our questions about the foods. Food quality & portions are very good as well. I will come back for sure.
Went at 2pm on a Sunday - we were the only ones there but the two servers there were wonderful, helpful, friendly & attentive. The lemonade was tart & fresh.
