Best Lebanese restaurant in Montreal. My friend and I were visiting from Nova Scotia and we loved the food, staff and environment. Food was very authentic and it’s a must try.

The most authentic lebanese cuisine. The food was amazing. The bread is made fresh to order and paired perfectly with the mutabal and hummus. We will definitely be returning!

The owner is welcoming and attentive. The waiters provide excellent service and the food is outstanding, fresh, authentic and full of flavour. A great dining experience overall. By the way, the taboule is amazing. There mint, olive oil and lemon combination create a traditional fresh and vibrant aroma.

Small place, Way overpriced ... I guess it reflects rent in Griffintown ... Not authentically classic Lebanese place ... No formulas, more like tapas style... small portions (don't be surprised) ... but the hot pita bread keeps coming 😋

Thank you for your feedback — we always appreciate hearing from our guests. Our pricing reflects our commitment to authenticity: over 75% of our main ingredients are imported directly from Lebanon to ensure the true taste and quality of traditional cuisine. Lebanese food is also deeply rooted in the mezza (sharing) culture, which is why our menu offers a variety of dishes meant to be enjoyed together — alongside a full selection of slow-cooked, non-fried specialties. We’re sorry if this wasn’t your experience, but we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again. Warm regards, The Bayrut Team

The most authentic Lebanese food with the best service. Andrew was amazing and very proud to make us taste and explain the story behind the true foundation of food in his country. Even the owners greeted us with great hospitality. The food was 10 out of 10

Amazing find!! Our server was the sweetest and we got to meet with the chef who told us he cooks his mother’s recipes. Not only was the service outstanding but so was the food. We discovered a variety of flavors and we still found space for an amazing dessert. Would 100% recommend and go back. Best restaurant in a while.

Excellent restaurant and new discovery in Montreal! Apparently, they opened up just a few months ago, so kudos to the team! I took my lady there for Valentine’s day and we took the tasting menu. The food was great: delicious flavours, generous quantities, all served in beautiful dishes to share. Every thing was authentic and well executed. I highly recommend!

I don't understand how this establishment can justify these prices. It's insulting. $14 for potatoes: you get a handful of potatoes (at most) and they taste like fast food (cold, sat on a counter for hours). $60 for chicken: you get 2 legs, which are almost gray in color - not edible. Very pretentious. Service and wine was excellent though - very friendly staff.

The food was really bad and extremely overpriced. There's a plethora of Lebanese restaurants in Montreal with far superior food. I'm baffled by the high reviews.

A 'must visit' Lebanese family run restaurant. A fantastic welcome, servicw and food. Went there Wednesday in February. This family run restaurant is an unexpected gem on William St. It is authentic and charming. The food is of high quality, fresh and expertly prepared. The atmosphere is warm and the staff knowledgeable and interested in the clientele. They take a personal interest in ensuring customers have enjoyed every aspect of their meal which is impressive, even in a city where food service seems to be the norm. If we are ever back in Montreal we will be repeat customers! This restaurant absolutely deserves to succeed.

1:45h limit for 4 people AND a credit card on file to reserve. The food may be good (albeit pricey) but I do find the time limit ironically antithetical to the typical Middle Eastern hospitality that the restaurant is supposed to espouse.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — we truly appreciate it. We completely understand how a time limit can feel contrary to the spirit of Middle Eastern hospitality, which is rooted in generosity & warmth around the table. That experience is very important to us. To clarify, we apply a 2-hour reservation window for each table on busy evenings so we can accommodate all guests fairly and avoid long wait times. This reservation duration is clearly indicated at the time of booking on OpenTable, allowing guests to review the policy in advance. That said, our intention is never to rush anyone. If availability allows and we do not have another reservation waiting, we are always happy to extend the table. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and offer the warm, generous hospitality we care so deeply about. The Bayrut Team
