First time at Balila, a new Lebanese breakfast place in Laval north of Montreal…read more Service was quick. We came in without reservation and we were seated without any delay. We tried the foul (fava beans), fatteh, lahm b ajin, fried eggs with tomato. All were delicious and made to perfection. When we're done eating, the server offered us a dessert on the house. It included halawit el jibn and ousmalieh in addition to riz b halib and jello. The place is not that large but it can probably fit about 100 people. Fairouz songs were playing in the background bringing back memories of homeland. It was a great experience. Will definitely come back again to try other items on the menu.

Servers are very nice and they kept check in. The ambiance is welcoming and they have nice murals around. Their "foul salad" is so good and very well seasoned. The Fatayer is super thin and nice (maybe too thin lol) their fatteh is good and so was their grilled cheese. Overall it was a pleasant meal and if you are in the area it's a nice spot to check out

Plates are pretty generous. The salad overflowed.

If I had to be a bit nit-picky, I would say that even with the quality of the entire experience taken into account, the prices could have been a bit better. I think we spent about $60 per person and were still a little bit hungry after all was said and done.

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.

I went with the Lahmajin which consist of a round, thin piece of dough topped with minced meat, minced vegetables and herbs including onions, tomatoes and parsley as well as the Za'atar manakeesh which consists of thyme, sesame seeds and the sumac spice. Both were fantastic! Why? Well, they prepared it right in front of me, popped it in the oven for a few minutes then rolled it up NICE AND WARM into my eager hands. The Za'atar was good, the Lahmajin was out of this world good. The price tag? About 2 bucks each... and they were pretty fulfilling. They sell packs of 6 for $10, this is a steal of a deal! I looked around while waiting and the prices were phenomenal. How is there not a line-up out of the door for this? There's even about 15 seats to enjoy your meal....

We wanted to try the sharing menu but we were refused because we were only 2 and there was no notes of that on the menu. We ordered our food, mezze and mains.... they didn't wait abit to bring the mains, we were still eating the mezzes when that came, we felt rushed even tho there was so many ppl at the restaurant. The eggplant dip was not good at all. But the rest of the food was good. When we finished eating we waiting approximately 30 mins to come clean up the table, we weren't even offered to get some dessert, we asked about getting one of there dessert but apparently they didn't have. We asked to get 2 bills but we only got 1, we wanted to pay and leave but the waiter was nowhere to be found. I think the service was not good at all and for that I don't think I'll be coming back. We didn't feel welcome at all.
