Staff was super great, we had an amazing waiter. He picked out our meal and explained every dish. The food was amazing! We will definitely be going back! Atmosphere, 4 cause it was crazy hot inside and they dont have air-conditioning, it was mentioned to us when we made the booking. There was a fan in the back but it didn't reach my seat.

We had a fantastic meal here today. Tania was SO kind and attentive. She was especially patient with my attempt to converse in French. The food was delicious as well. Great experience overall.

My friend and I were looking for a place to eat on a Friday night, and saw this place as we were walking. We didn’t have a reservation but they were able to seat us within 5 minutes. The food was incredible and the service was warm and attentive. I will definitely be back

This outstanding restaurant offers very tasty and well prepared Armenian and Syrian food. The staff are highly efficient and accommodating. We sat on the outside Terrace and really dined in a very leisurely way. Highly recommended.

Welcoming service, sommelier was helpful with wine choices as well. Fattouche salad and kebbe naye were good but typical. Braised Lamb tasted surprisingly plain despite the ingredients but it was passable. Prices were reasonable for what it was. Love the 80s,90s music.

Excellent Syrian food right outside Jean Talon Market. Wonderful vegetarian options. We feasted on Fattoush, and a variety of excellent dips. The spicy red pepper was another level and the broad bean soup was top notch. The service was disinterested which is why I knocked it down. Overall, I'd be back.

I came here with my coworkers and had a great time. One of the best meals I've had.However, I brought my partner here later, and we had an absolutely terrible time. The service was shockingly poor.The waiter had no intention of service us, answering our questions, or bringing our food out when it was ready (it was all cold by the time it arrived).

Most things were so delicious especially the fatoush and chich tawouk. I loved the lentil soup and kibbeh as well. However as a Syrian, the rice in the yalanji did not feel very fresh although the spicing was good

One of the best restaurants in Montreal and they are not doing it with any gimmick. Just a plain old family owned restaurant serving great food and wine with good service

Amazing food and the service is one of best in the city 🫶🏼😎 I strongly suggest the discovery menu and ask to "avoid" classics if you are used to libanese food classic as humus, muhamara or falafel. I have discovered such great options 🫶🏼 and veg ones.

Excellent, prompt service, and the food is always delicious. The spreads/dips appetizer was a wonderful way to sample a bunch of things at once! The whole menu is surprisingly affordable.

Good flavours but smallish portions for the price. Two of our party felt sick after the meal.
