First time at Mezza, a new Lebanese restaurant in Laval. It's located across from Adonis market on…read morehighway 440 east in Laval. The restaurant has two levels, with the upper level overseeing the lower one. We walked in without a reservation and they accommodated us (party of 7). Very professional staff to say the least. They offer food by both a menu and per person formula, where you can pick a salad (tabbouleh or fattoush), two cold mezza, two hot mezza, 4 skewers of grilled meat of either filet mignon, chicken kafta, beef kafta, or shish taouk, and a dessert, all for two people for 60 Canadian dollars per person. You can pick any combination of skewers, cold mezza and hot mezza. Food came quickly. Everything was perfectly prepared, from the mezza to the grilled meat on charcoal, and finally the dessert. Will come back later for sure.

I tried the chicken shawarma on saj, and was happy to see the wrap come as a thin roll, with the essential fillings only (no lettuce, tomato, etc.). The crisp crunch of the grilled saj made every bite a pleasure. The thin bread cracks away with the creamy toum and pickles bringing great flavour to the savoury meat. I would probably try beef next. Other options are with pita, or as bowls. Maybe one day, lamb shawarma will be more common in Montreal...

Both the chicken and potatoes were very dry. The chicken was lacking in flavour... The potatoes were definitely not seasoned like other Basha's I've eaten at.

So unfortunately my shish taouk craving was not fulfilled. Not sure if I'll be coming back to this location.

Upon entering the restaurant, I'm instantly reminded of the late nights waiting at a halal cart in nyc after a night out. This restaurant itself is not the cleanest and rather chaotic on weekend nights. Theres usually a long line to order, but it moves rather quickly and efficiently. The staff members aren't the friendliest, but they get the job done LOL. You'll find a bunch of hungry and probably drunk people sitting at the cafeteria styled seats at night. The food is the main selling point here though. I've gotten the mixed platter and shawarma platter; both with generous servings of protein all doused in a flavorful sauce. Ordered the poutine recently and was also impressed how much they loaded the protein. It was a little on the saltier side and wished they had more cheese curds, but still pretty enjoyable. The fries were also more like small potato wedges. I've recommended this place countless times for almost any point of the day, but they especially hit the spot after a long night.

My mom is gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, 100% olive oil... lots of dietary restrictions, and Damas accommodated for her so kindly! The staff were super kind and welcoming. My mom had come here once before, and the waitress remembered her by name and was incredibly gracious and patient as my mom explained her diet. As for the food, just WOW. The pomegranate salad was incredible, and we got the lamb, chicken, mushrooms... everything was so beautifully plated with vibrant colors and burst of many flavors. Each perfectly cooked. It's amazing how they can turn something as "simple" as mushrooms and chicken to be so incredibly delicious. We celebrated my mom's birthday here, and the ambiance was perfect for it. 10/10 would recommend this place, especially for anyone with allergies.
