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.

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

The food is always fresh and tasty and gets a thumbs up from all of my Armenian relatives, even after all these years! Our go-to items are the filet mignon, shish taouk and the kebbe naye. The first two are cooked on a charcoal grill which gives them a nice smoky flavour. You can also tell they are great cuts of meat and it is always tender. As for the kebbe naye, it may seem odd at it is basically a raw meat paste that they form into these little nuggets. They are typically eaten with mint and raw onion. It is a must for me to have this especially in the summer time, super refreshing! Portion sizes are always big and we leave satisfied every time.

District 961 has been a go-to place for a night with shishas and good drinks…read more I've been there three times and have had three different experiences. The first time I was there was for a friend's birthday. The restaurant isn't very big but it makes it cosy and when it fills up with the music and the lights dimmed, it gives a pretty nice atmosphere. The food we had that night was a pre-chosen mezza for 35$ each. I wasn't VERY happy with the mezza just because it didn't include a lot of variety for the price (for example, there was no tabboulé, the fattoush came in a weird bowl and the manakish (which aren't part of the usual mezza) were made on this weird pita bread that made it hard to eat). It also took a long time to get the meat and fries. Now for the drinks, I have nothing to say. The drinks are good and the alcohol in them is generous. I've tried the red sangria and a mojito (10$ each), both were delicious! The music on that night was fun and although you can't really dance because of the tight space, we found a way to do so and to celebrate! The second and third time I was there, I was with less people and we ordered food from the menu directly. Let me tell you: it made a huge difference!!! The nachos were delicious, as well as the vegetarian sandwich I had the second time. I also reordered every drink I've had the first time since they were so good and even 9 months later, they didn't disappoint. The shisha service is good. They have multiple flavours and there's a designated waiter that goes around tables to check on every shisha. If you're with a small group of people, you can ask for a backgammon board or a deck of cards. They also have TVs to watch the games and other.

Rouby provides some authentic Lebanese/Armenian styled cuisine. The menu is quite big with a huge…read morevariety of hot and cold mezzes (tapas) as well as a variety of cooked meats to yourself indulge in. The menu is ideally suited to be shared in a friend or family setting. My extended family knows of this place quite well over the years as they've all been here in past events for birthdays/weddings or special dinners at some point in their lives. My recent visit is nothing so exciting however and I brought some work colleagues with me to introduce them to this type of cuisine. Here's my opinion on the plates that we shared: Hummus : Excellent! (5 stars). This menu item tends to be prepared so differently in a variety of cuisines but the Armenian way... is the best way! :) Fattouch : Fantastic!!! (5+ stars). My favorite salad without a doubt and Rouby does it justice. The salad ingredients are fresh, the fried pita pieces crunchy (freshly prepped) and the dressing makes this dish really come together. Truly spectacular. Soujouk : Decent 3/5. Soujouk (or sujuk depending where you're from) is a dry, spicy sausage that I swear is always prepped different at every single restaurant that services it. Unfortunately, I wasn't overly fond with the version provided here, a bit too dry for my taste and the portion less than expected. Meat Plate : Good (3/5). We took a family plate which consisted of 1 stick of kafta, shish-taouk and filet mignon. The meats were good, I was especially fond of the filet mignon. The plate comes with a selection of salad or fries/rice. Service is friendly albeit a little standoffish. Good was prepared quickly and efficiently. The establishment is clean and well presented, our banquet table was comfortable. Overall the food is good, with some of my particular tastes showing clear bias in my opinion of them, some of the mezze plates are not as generous as they should be and this went in particular for the Soujouk which didn't fill out a full plate. I also regularly find plates of meat at Lebanese restaurants being quite overpriced. The meat plate which was close to $25 only held 3 sticks of meat and anyone knows we could get these at Adonis for about $2 to $3 dollars each. I would hope to see more generous portions in the meat plates but alas that challenges seems to be seen everywhere. Conclusion? Worthy of a taste, try it out and enjoy this cuisine.

Service was friendly and we ordered our food without issues. I went with the filet mignon and soujouk sandwiches. The filet mignon sandwich was decent but I'll be honest and state I've had far better. It didn't feel like it was grilled on charcoal but more so on propane which clearly doesn't taste as good. The soujouk was completely off, I've always enjoyed soujouk and I'll be honest... it was pretty bad. I got another sandwich for my Lebanese boss and she came to me later on in the afternoon wondering what I tried to feed her! The Aryan drink she got was watered down as per her opinion. With other options in this area, I don't see myself coming back here. Price-tag is pretty expensive as well.

The chicken was so dry I could not eat it. The beef was dry but had absolutely no flavor at all. Thé been salad I did not even try as it looked slimly. Thé iceberg lettuce was old and brown.
