Mon plat shawarma manquait de goût pour être honnête, mais la salade de poulet était très bonne. Longue attente 20min+ malgré que nous étions les premiers à avoir commandé

The reviews are NOT LYING when they say that this is a really good spot. I recently just went to Thailand & this place? oml coming from a country with very good food this is the best I've tried after coming back to Montreal maybe even the best food in Montreal that I've tried my whole life here. My husband & I got the plates, falafel & the chicken one to try both & we both loved it! we might love the falafel more tho, it is so crispy but also so soft & flavorful in the inside. Will definitely come back for the shawarma ♥?
