TESFA is consistently praised for bright, fresh Mediterranean flavors, with falafel pita, sabich pita, shawarma and kebabs highlighted as standout choices; the hummus is silky and the pitas are fluffy and freshly baked, portions are generous and the value is good. The restaurant also showcases vegetarian and vegan options, making it a popular spot for meat lovers and plant-based eaters alike. The atmosphere is described as cozy and welcoming, often feeling like a neighborhood gem, though the space is small and seating can be tight, especially during peak hours. Service is repeatedly praised for friendliness and warmth, while a few visits mention slow service when busy or occasional takeout packaging issues and a wrong order, which some note as solvable with a quick fix. Overall, TESFA is regarded as one of the best places for Middle Eastern/Mediterranean food in the area, valued for freshness, consistency and genuine, generous hospitality that keeps people coming back.
Excellent friendly service, beautifully decorated & clean restaurant. Had shawarma pita, falafel pita & pita chips. Everything was fresh, quick, well seasoned & delicious. Their hot sauce is top notch. Menu available in English & French.
Great quality, but I didn't enjoy the taste of the chicken shawarma or falafel pita. The falafel taste itself is very underwhelming. I'm shocked how this place is rated so highly
It is one of the best Middle Eastern sandwich places in Montreal. The food is always fresh & tasty. If you are around Plateau, & you are craving for falafel, hummus, & shawarma, sure give it a try.
Excellent quality food made with fresh ingredients & a lot of flavour. Crispy falafel, homemade hummus, fresh salad with mint, & hot soft pita bread. Everything is delicious. Service is good too & the dining area is cozy & clean. I would highly recommend!

Je n'ai jamais vue de ma vie autant de passion & d'amour mit dans la préparation d'un plat de falafel. & donc... au gout, quel régale! Frais, croustillant....gouteux! Recommande les yeux fermés & le coeur inspiré! - Guigui ami de Miri
Delicieux, pas cher, une pépite !!
J'ai mangé un pita falafel & il était incroyable. Les frites étaient vraiment bonnes. On a pas attendu longtemps. Je note l'adresse j'y retournerai, c'est dans les bons plans de Montréal !!! 🔥

Arrêtez tout ce que vous faites & allez manger à cet endroit! Wow c’était tellement bon! La photo ne rend pas justice aux délices que nous avons dégusté.
Nous avons pris un Pita falafels (meilleur que falafel Yoni) & un Mama pita (la meilleure chose que j’ai mangé de ma vie!!). Les deux sont véganes & il y a pleins d’autres options véganes 🌱ça vaut le détour 🧡 La salade falafels est aussi délicieuse!! Le rapport qualité/prix est incroyable (25$ pour les deux) & c’était généreux comme portions! En plus les personnes sont tellement gentilles & le service est parfait.
Il mérite certainement tous ces bons avis
Great prices on the pita sandwiches & amazing quality too. I had the beef pita, my wife had chicken pita both about $13 our son had Falafel. Sandwiches were packed with grilled veggies & meat. Small but welcoming dining area.

It’s pretty hard to believe that this take out spot usually does not have hoards of people lining up in front of it because its without hesitation the best falafel pita I’ve eaten in the whole city. Decent prices, superb service & amazing food! Try it!
