This restaurant has been on my list of saved places for a while, and I finally had the chance to try it out yesterday. It’s a hidden gem on Crescent Street. The atmosphere is nice and cozy, and the various products and decorations brought a wave of nostalgia. The menu is rich and diverse, and I especially loved the creative idea of displaying the origin of each dish with the flag of its country—something I haven't seen here in Montreal. We chose the package deal, which included four options: a main dish, one side, two soft drinks, and sweets (mainly baklava, my favorite, and kunafeh). We enjoyed beet hummus, Palestinian musakhan, Egyptian moujadara, kufta with tahini sauce, grape leaves, and Arayes filled with meat. For dessert, we had baklava and ordered Turkish coffee. Overall, all the food was delicious and flavorful. The small portions of various dishes allowed us to enjoy a mix of different flavors at once. Ra’ed and his wife Hadeel, the owners, are truly the cherries on top. They are welcoming, kind, and sociable. My first experience was pleasant and enjoyable, and I highly recommend this restaurant if you love Mediterranean cuisine.

Very cute and quaint place for a home style cooked meal. The decor is very authentic and has a relaxing vibe to it. The food is very tasty and healthy showcasing many spices that woke up my tastebuds. I was given a complimentary tea after my meal that was the cherry on top. I will be back for sure because the staff made me feel welcome

I like this place a lot. I like their concept of 4 options for 20 $ I love their lentils soup, the grape leaves, the msakhan, and spicy sujok. The Iranian lady made some delicious healthy cookies which I loved a lot. She is super sweet and friendly. Today the owner suggested we try a different option since what I wanted they did not offer. I liked the sandwich he proposed. The chicken Italian Alfredo sauce sandwich was so delicious and I am not a fan of Alfredo sauce. The Mexican fahitas style was ok. My sister it was her first time she got different options and I loved the chicken potatoes lemon one. The mdardara is delicious. The spinach with meat was also yummy. I recommend this place. It has great service and attentive owner.

Super kind and welcoming. Amazing food to choose from. Great atmosphere. Authentic homemade dishes. Big portions along with offers from the owners to sample some extras. Definitely recommending to friends and family and will come back next time I’m in the neighbourhood.
