A great Mediteranean/Eastern African restaurant ! On Plateau Mont-Royal, lowkey but well located. The taste was above the exceptations, I would suggest the kebab Pita has authentic flavour. I've had a great experience, that includes the service, genuinely nice coming from their staff. The spot is well maintaines & decorated. The vibe is very relax, no rush to leave your table or order more. You can also take out, I have ordered online & it was well packaged, warm & as fresh as when you dine-in. Give it a try !!
