I usually order takeout but eating in is fine if you can find a seat. The food is spectacular & truly one of my favorite places to eat in Montreal (which is saying a lot).
So many options, catering to most dietary restrictions, & they make the food in front of you quite quickly!
Highly recommend for anyone craving Mediterranean-influenced food.

Everyone I go, I take the Sabich. While being recommended practically every dish, I cannot convince myself to skip the Sabich. One of the best I ever ate, & the satisfaction of the taste follows several hours after eating (at least for me 😅)

Staff is so kind & delicious food. Service was a tad slow because they were very busy, but how can you be mad when the staff is so nice! Totally recommend.
