TESFA is described as a small, cozy, welcoming spot where the food is consistently fresh, flavorful and prepared with care, with the falafel pita and sabich pita repeatedly called standout items and the hummus noted as exceptionally smooth. Reviewers praise a wide variety of Mediterranean offerings including shawarma, shish taouk and kebab pita, with many calling it the best falafel in Montreal and the bread and sauces highlighted as especially fresh and well balanced. The staff and atmosphere receive many compliments for warmth and friendliness, giving the dining experience a family owned vibe that feels personal and inviting. Some reviewers mention the small space can make seating tricky at busy times, and a few visits note occasional inconsistencies or changes in taste, but these are in the minority compared with the overall praise for freshness, quality and value. Overall it is seen as a hidden gem in the Plateau, offering affordable, high quality Mediterranean dishes that leave diners eager to return.
J'ai découvert ce restaurant il y a 2 ans maintenant, & chaque fois que je voyage, je n'ai qu'une hâte : rentrer à Montréal pour manger un délicieux shawarma pita. C'est définitivement mon restaurant préféré. Que ce soit pour la cuisine, le service, l'ambiance, tout y est parfait. On y est tellement bien accueilli qu'on n'a jamais envie de repartir.

Super affordable & delicious cute resto to grab a sandwich. We ordered the sheed pita, shawarma pita & the side of falafels. Everything was homemade & fresh! Our favorite was definitely the sheed pita. The chicken breast was tender & the garlic sauce was chefs kiss. The falafels were also amazing. They had a nice crunch accompanied with some hummus. These sandwiches were generous in portion & are an amazing value. Will def be revisiting this joint!!
Simplement extraordinaire: frais, maison, coloré & sain. Meilleurs falafels en ville (ouioui), pita frais maison (même option sans gluten!), & le tout à prix respectueux en plus. Si rare de trouver des gens aussi chaleureux avec une qualité de nourriture si haute!

This restaurant is a true gem. The service was very friendly & the place is clean. I was supposed to eat half in the restaurant & half to go, but the Sheed pita i took was too delicious to stop eating. The meat was hot & flavourful, the vegetables were fresh & crunchy, the sauce paired delicously with everything. I also appreciate the many vegetarian options they have! I will definitely be 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.
Not your average shawarma or pita place. Tesfa is simply delicious, fresh & absolutely tasteful. By far one of the best Mediterranean food take out in Montreal.
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

Le Shawarma pita est super bon!! Best place pour des sandwichs, la viande est très savoureuse & fraiche & les sauces sont très originales !! Ça fait 2 ans que je connais cette place & je m'en lasse toujours pas!!!
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!
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
