Shish-Kebab - Montréal

Not many tourists will find this place, as it’s is located out of the main tourist areas of Montreal in a commercial area of strip malls and light industry. That is unfortunate, as it is well worth the effort to visit. Plus it can be...combined with a trip to the local Costco which is right across the street. We love middle eastern food, and what we had here was top notch, and very plentiful for the price. The big bonus was that we were travelling with our medium sized dog, and the restaurant and it’s patrons were OK with our dog joining us on the patio. Two big thumbs up.

Wow! Just as the title suggests, the food we ordered was delicious. Hats off to the kitchen, the owner, and the entire staff. Excellent!

The cooks are very nice but the lady serving us was very rude with, I think she might be the owner. Its my second time there as I was trying to give a second chance to the service, but she talks to us like if...we are little kids and not treating us with respect. I am never going back there.

We are writing this review after many years of eating at Shish-Kebab restaurant. It's rare that we ever write reviews. However, the excellent experience we consistently had in this restaurant has motivated to write this review as an expression of appreciation. We also wanted others...to benefit from our good experience. HERE ARE OUR RATINGS, EVALUATED OBJECTIVELY:  FOOD CUISINE QUALITY: Excellent! The meat of the grilled Kofta and Kabab [beef cubes] are very tender, taken from high-quality cuts. The seasoning, cooking, and grilling are made by very experienced cooks, using old-fashion charcoal grilling to produce a special flavor.  FOOD QUANTITY: The main plate portions are very large generous. As well, there are several free side portions included in the meal's price.  THE SERVICE: This is a family-owned operated business. The owners are very cordial and friendly. They offer exceptional service. The orders are prepared in a relatively short time.  THE SETUP AMBIANCE is warm, clean, agreeable, and well lit. This restaurant is suitable for couples, families, and groups who like to sit and be well served. In the summer, there is a pleasant area to eat in the open air. PS: the owners have recently performed an extensive renovation modernization of the restaurant and the kitchen, which has significantly added value to the restaurant's environment and effectiveness.  THE PRICING is more than reasonable, given all the above strong points.  CONCLUSION: If we were to be the judges of an Academy Award Contest for the Best Lebanese Egyptian Cuisine Restaurants, the OSCAR would GO TO SHISH-KEBAB RESTAURANt !!

This Middle Eastern restaurant serves the best, freshest tasting food around. They prepare their dishes daily in-house, and it is simply amazing. The staff, who are all family, are very pleasant. This is a place I will definitely be returning to with my friends.
