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.

Food here is so delicious & the two owners are very sweet guys. Service is fast but it's also a cozy place to grab lunch or dinner. Probably the best value & taste there is on Mont Royal, great local business to support.

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!
