Outstanding! Out-freaking-standing

I just moved around the corner from this place and I am in trouble. I am gonna need a second job to pay for how often I’m going to eat here. The shawarma and the shish touk were amazing. My partner’s kefte and lamb kabob were excellent. I am in trouble.

Pros: Flavors, Freshness, Wonderful service. Like top notch

Amazing selection of plant based dishes. Everything was flavoursome and balance. The portions are generous and the textures are spot on.

Nice experience

Lovely service, large portions, and overall very tasty.

I'm not used to dining out in Montreal but it did seem a tad expensive. We got a second meal out of our leftovers though, so that made it a better deal.

I definitely recommend if you're in the area and not too concerned about your budget.

Service impeccable, bonne bouffe

Service impeccable!
Le chef cuisinier est venu nous voir pour nous aider à faire nos choix et à répondre à nos questions. Ils nous ont accommodés sur la terrasse quand la pluie a commencé et lorsqu’il est venu le temps de changer le bébé.

Nourriture excellente, bon goût épicé à point. Je suggère les grillades et la crème glacée au chocolat enrobé de barbe à papa!

Cons: Pas de table à langer

Hit and miss

I was torn between 3-4 stars but gave four because it’s hard to down vote a vegan restaurant. The food here is a little hit and miss. I found the falafel bland, the tempeh gyro excellent, and the grape leaves a little soggy and over seasoned. The baklava, however, is really wonderful. I will give it another try because I might not have chosen the right menu items. They seem to do a lot with mock meats, which I wasn’t in the mood for. I will update when I eventually go back.

Never disappoints

I love this place so much, especially the steak plate. Very satisfying without being junky! I can also recommend: falafel sandwich, poutine, hummus, burgers and baklavas. This is the ideal spot for a casual lunch with friends. And the owner is always so nice!

Big Choice

Lots to choose from, authentic flavours, helpful venders. I really enjoyed by big bowl (huge bowl in reality) fresh salad, rice and the shish taouk…I didn’t get a chance to try ‘the best falafel in Montréal‘ I’ll definitely have to return.

Pros: Huge range of options, Cosy restaurant/café

Plats vraiment excellents, difficile de choisir!

Les plats sont tellement excellents et copieux que j'ai à chaque fois du mal à me décider, cependant le propriétaire est un amour qui te guide à travers ses plats. C'est tellement bons et frais. La petite terasse en avant l'été est parfaite. Bref, succulent et agréable, que demander de mieux! & La sauce à l'ail : oooh mon dieu!!!

Shish

We were like kids in a gelatin free candy store. Everything vegan? Too good to be true. The server was incredible and helped us pick our wraps.
Fairly tasty but neither were that spicy. The falafel side we got was good though!
Very fast, and fair portions.
Overall, definitely worth a visit and to support these friends.😄

Always amazing!!!!

Second location of Sham and it’s just as good as the one located on Mozart street. The owners are super nice and the food is amazing!!! There are a lot of different choices (falafels, hummus, salads, rice, mock meats, etc.). I have been there many times and what I really like taking is a plate with a few mock meats. I try different ones everytime, they are all good. The vegan yogourt sauce is a must.

Tasty but far too expensive.

Great vegan shwarma but wow, 17.99 for a trio? Forget it. Any other falafel place I can get a falafel pita for 5 bucks and change, maybe 8 with a trio and are easily vegan as long as you double check the sauces. Not sure I'll be back.

Pros: Vegan

Cons: Too much money

I don’t think u can write a bad review because something is expensive if u like the food, maybe ur just too poor to afford it 😉

Imagine being that classist as to shame someone for being poor. Fucking low. Got alot of compassion for a vegan

A real treat

I had the skewers with rice, potatoes, and salad. It was amazing! My spouse had some veggie nuggets.
The service is a tad slow, but that is because they make every plate to perfection.
