77-A Boulevard Saint Jean Baptiste, Châteauguay, Quebec J6J 3H7, Canada
Bienvenue chez Baba Hamdi, le meilleur restaurant égyptien, situé à Châteauguay. Opéré par nul autre que le chef Hamdi (plus de 40 ans d'expérience et l'ancien propriétaire de La Villa Bella, Coin méchoui), le restaurant vous propose un menu alléchant, à travers ses plats colorés et savoureux. Grillades mixtes, shishtaouks, shawarmas, plats égyptiens authentiques tels que moussaka et shakshuka, poulet, salades...tout est à faire saliver!
I went to Baba Hamdi’s for breakfast while I was waiting for my car to be ready, and it was the best breakfast I’ve had in a long time. The food, and the service was amazing. A must if you’re in the area. I’ll definitely be going back regularly.
Highly recommended; nice and warm environment ; kind; friendly staff, fresh food , high quality of ingredients; smell so good 😋and tasteful Such a lovely place.🌹 The lady who was serving us got 5 star service from us. 🌺So friendly and professional
Excellent food and service! Warm and friendly staff and atmosphere. We really enjoyed our evening. We tried the Egyptian specialities and they were awesome. I highly recommend the Baba Hamdi restaurant!
Great experience. Amazing service, hospitality, decor and delicious authentic Egyptian food.
First time trying this place. We took a shawarma platter and a combo platter. They come with rice, potatoes and a choice of salad. Everything was fresh and delicious 😊 We waited about 15-20 min (which is expected for fresh meat) and the lady at the front brought us Kunafa (a dessert) to try, it was sooo good ! I recommend this place.
Excellent food and service. We used to order using a delivery service but last week we went over there to try it out physically. Nice restaurant, great staff, the specialties are awesome. we shared our plates to taste a little bit of everything.it was all tasteful.
I really like the food special the koshary it was yummy and the same taste like in Egypt. the portions is big and the price is very reasonable , the place is very nice and big . I really recommend this place
*** EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE *** Honestly its the 1st time, I've ate a beautiful EGYPTIAN meal since I'm in Canada. Thus might be a longer review than the ones I post usually. The restaurant is very clean and cozy, staff are very friendly and very welcoming. The kitchen is open to the lobby, you can easy see what they are doing inside easily. I ordered a plate of Koshary and to be honest the portion is good enough for 2 persons, also I ordered konafa and tea with mint and it was amazing . Cons : konafa was too sweety for me but it doesn't mean it wasn't delicious i liked a lot. I recommand it to those who wants to try a real egyptian cuisine.
Food
Consultation of the menu for delivery, lack of details and no clearer when calling to ask questions. Reception of our dishes, major disappointment for the plate of grilled meat supposedly for two people. 1/2 the amount of meat was missing. Supporting photo. Hefty bill, a real steal!! Baba Hamdi never again. We are far from the quality and care of Coin Méchoui.
Good place. Tasty dishes. Incredible hummus!
Its a little expensive but food, ambiance and service all is superb.
Very good and very clean super courteous
Best restaurant in town! Fresh and excellent food!
Waitress not very bilingual. Kind owner.
Multiple delicious choices, Good quantity, inexpensive. Great service Like at home. Vegetarian options: Yes Kid-friendliness: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Great place for an excellent supper.Service is fast and professional. Bravo
I knew it was going to be excellent but it exceeded my expectations. Amazing!!
Really clean and a warm welcome!
Good quality of food, we eat very well
Best restaurant in Châteauguay at an affordable price... Very highly recommended... Reservation for 38 people and no errors. Everything was beyond excellent! The duck is the best I have eaten... Thank you, thank you, thank you.... Thank you Baba
Excellent restaurant, I recommend it, good Egyptian and Turkish meal, very good. Very good AAA service.
Great food and great service!
Great food and great service. I really loved their hummus and their baladi bread. Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible as it is on the first floor.
Great restaurant, the food is really good, and the waitress doesnt spend her time coming to see if youre okay, looks at you from time to time, and comes to fill your water when you need it
@June, 2023 - evening Full service restaurant that offers a good amount of authentic Egyptian dishes. There are some overlaps such as shawarma and falafel, however, what folks really wanna try are the main dishes. I had the Hawashi and here, they do not fry it but instead grill it and in that process the fat from the meat is absorbed in the bread. The meat was seasoned just enough so as to not to lose its taste. The Egyptian bread is a special kind of bread that is more wholesome than the Levantine bread and these folks get it from a local bakery and it s fresh and made right. With all that said and done, unfortunately, the hummus wasn t at par. Unfortunately, most places used canned chick peas and the water from the can, which makes for a subpar experience. We had to pay $1 extra for the salad, which was supposedly included with the main course. Woohoo post Covid inflation. The owner and his son run the pace and it s fairly well decorated. I didn t get a chance to take pictures!
Exceptional flavors!!! I loved it!!!
Best Food and service, very respectful staff.
I recommend. Hot fresh and good service.
Very disappointed, from my order Shawarma ,I enjoyed just garlic potatoes and rice, Meat was way too dry,not tasty at all. Also got extra falafel, also didnt enjoy,
Very good little Egyptian restaurant. The meal was good and the atmosphere was friendly. We had typical Egyptian meals and were very pleased with the spice blends in our dishes. Wishing great success to these restaurateurs who bring diversity in quality to Châteauguay!
Great food and service
Delicious food Kind people The place is absolutely beautiful Would eat there again <3 Food : 5/5 |
Amazing Egyptian food just like I had in Egypt
Amazing Egyptian food experience.
Excellent, great discovery We will come back 100%
Nice hidden sport for local food
Probably the best chicken in the region..
We shared 3 Egyptian dishes as well as a kebab dish. Everything was very good. The desserts are also delicious. I recommend the qonbela, for dessert, which is a mixture of each of the desserts on the menu. I definitely plan to go back for a culinary trip to Egypt. Vegetarian options: There are typical vegetarian dishes.
Intimate restaurant. Delicious hummus, warm and fresh bread. Good portions. I tried the Moussaka which was tasty. The kebab koftas are excellent. I recommend. It s a BYOB.
Tasty cuisine where each dish is refined and prepared with care.
Not only is the food amazing, but the service is excellent, the chef goes above and beyond, and the atmosphere is quite pleasant. The portions are more than generous, but it wouldnt matter, because each mouthful is an actual experience.
Incredible experience. Great service, best food, affordable price.
Very good place
Very nice place, authentic Egyptian food. Baba Hamdi was very nice and welcoming! Staff was very nice and welcoming especially that we had a child with us! Will go again!
Thank you for your delicious food in abundant quantity
Im disappointed!! Today is my birthday, so I wanted to try this restaurant, which opens at 11:00, I show up at 1:30, AND ITS ALREADY CLOSED!! I admit its a weekday, but still Not sure Ill go back, Jean-Paul
Truly wow! Authentic Egyptian taste.. the chef behind the scenes is extraordinary.. i recommend
Went to this hidden gem last night. We had the mixed grill special for 4 people and wow it was truly a delight. 4 choices of salad all were delicious (my favorites were the artichoke salad and the cabbage salad). The mixed grill plate came with lamb chops, kefta, filet mignon and grilled chicken. As well as heaping portions of rice and garlic potatoes with a garlic sauce. The food was so delicious all the meat was cooked to perfection and we even had leftovers to take home because of the generous portions. The ambiance of the restaurant was so warm and comforting. The Egyptian decor was beautiful. The service was some of the best service I have had in a long time. The waitresses were friendly, quick and always close by if we needed anything. They were able to make recommendations for the dishes that we did not recognize and were warm and friendly throughout the entire dinner service. We asked for our mixed grill platter family style and it came beautifully presented. It looked so good we didnt even grab a picture before diving right in. The establishment is bring your own wine as well. Perfect for a date night, family meal or night out with friends. We will definitly be returning again. I would highly recommend. A true hidden gem in the area.
Great local place to try! The food was delicious i got the toshka pita wow
Nice delicious food but because i am Egyptian i compare the taste to what i know from Egypt and here is the weakness for the restaurant not really the original Egyptian food taste. But still nice delicious food
The Taouk pita is really very good!! Fresh taste! The chicken is excellent. The portion is very generous. It was the first time I ate the (delivered with skip) not disappointed! I will recommend.
Egyptian food isnt the easiest to find in the Montreal-area so this was a fun quest with my friends. I really liked the interior, they made good use of the high ceilings. Service was also great as well. Unfortunately I cant say I was amazed by the food. Not that it was bad but just did not impress me to any degree.
First time at Baba Hamdi for me and my family it was amazing, the place is so warm and nice, food is delicious and the young girl who was working there did us khena! My girls were so happy! Thanks a lot
Very nice atmosphere. Very nice place and so delicious food. M Hamdi Very nice person for sure we return back again Food
Great restaurant. Quiet during the week. Super friendly staff. Go cheer!!
The portions compared to the price charged are very very exaggerated so as not to go into too much detail, the photos that I shared: a plate of mixed grill at $46.99 + taxes and the other plate of shishtaouk at $26.99 + taxes!!!!! plates at other comparable restaurants are almost half the price. Plus there were only two waitresses to do everything!!! (both are very nice) for a restaurant where all the tables were occupied in addition to the customers who were waiting for a place.
The best Egyptian/Arab food in the region hands down and not just in Châteauguay! Hamdi cooks with his heart and makes sure you re always happy with the food. Thanks Hamdi for the years of great meals and experiences!
Delicious and good service!
Amazing chicken, packed with flavours. Very generous portions too. Our go to in Chateauguay. Very yummy but healthy too.
First time this evening for us. We didnt really know what to expect. The service was quick. The place is pleasant. For food you have to love spices. Its a question of taste but it didnt reach me.. The meat was very good and very tender but I would have liked a sauce to accompany it. A filet mignon without sauce even if it is tender it is still missing a few things. The garlic potatoes really dont taste like garlic but they are good, a bit like a breakfast potato. The salads and rice once again if it hadnt been for the spices they added in I would have eaten it all. The water they serve is room temperature. The price is $85 for 2 people with small portions. In short for me its a 5/10 My boyfriend gives it a 7/10
excellent brunch! Lots of choices for all tastes.
I loved the decoration of the restaurant and the food was tasty! Plus this restaurant is a BYOB. Excellent service, I will definitely return.
The food is excellent! The staff is very helpful. I loved it
Thank-you! Third time we have dinned here. The food was delicious! The service was awesome! I highly recommend without any hesitation.
Good place, good choice for vegetarian.
Nice warm ambience, receptive, kind staff and authentic cuisine.The food is Fresh and delicious, you can never get enough of no matter what you choose from the menu. Experience this for yourselves. Will post pictures next time i visit. Kid-friendliness: Eventhough this was a busy day, the staff was patient, kind and playful with the kids.
Best chicken in the city for sure. Great ambiance and their homemade hummus is to die for !! Definitely recommend this restaurant. Not too pricey either for the quality of the ingredients.
Great food are super friendly employees...will go back for sure
A very warm welcome, a family restaurant and what can we say about the cuisine! Absolutely delicious! Go there, you wont be disappointed. We tasted the foul starter for the first time. It was so good that we would have licked the plate at the end This is the 2nd time weve been back and its still just as good!
Parking: Très bien Kid-friendliness: Oui cest bien Wheelchair accessibility: Ouï
Delicious meals, good ambiance and friendly service. A nice cozy place to enjoy dinner with the family!
A great experience.
Excellent food and service. Warm welcome and resplendent food. The decoration is authentic and charming. A beautiful jewel located in Châteauguay
Check before you order a plate. All of them come with rice and potato. I would suggest you mix and match your order.
Fresh home made taste. Courteous service. Reasonable prices.
Impeccable service, warm place but the food is ordinary, nothing special.
Always delicious!
Best hummus and garlic sauce. YUMMY
Excellent meal!! Our taste buds were ecstatic with every bite.
Excellent food excellent service... Loved it
Excellent food , the staff was extremely friendly , I had the combo plate and I cant wait to go back .
Great service and excellent food
Excellent authentic Egyptian food my experience was amazing. The Lamb was to die for and top notch service and very well priced.
Second time that I am very disappointed by the portion size. Both times I ordered chicken for 4 persons ( $ 60 + tx). Today I. did not even have enough potatoes for 2 persons. I received a little container with 2 dates inside, for 4 persons!! Sorry, will no longer order from you.
A bring your own wine. Very nice place Its cheap, very good service and the food is excellent. Vegetarian options: The salads are excellent Parking: Large parking lot
Cest delicieux. I will try to come taste the sandwichs this friday january 22nd.
Super nice experience!!! Very rare to find an authentic Egyptian restaurant at a good price and this one was worth it. Great friendly service and everything my husband and I ate was delicious and so fresh. The cooks are also extremely courteous and professional. I recommend to everyone!!
Very good value for money. It s fun to have diversity in Châteauguay.
Amazing authentic Egyptian experience. Beautiful vibe and friendly owner
I went all the way from Laval to Baba Hamdi to try it out and it s worth it !!! Loved the food and the atmosphere .Their prices are reasonable. Must try restaurant !!
Very delicious and fresh cooked food, highly recommended
Just amazing, well enjoyed everything, we will return soon!!
Fantastic meal, never had Egyptian food before but I will be back for sure. Excellent food and even better service. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Place that Chateauguay needed. Excellent service and food was terrific and filling. Wheelchair accessibility: No steps just roll on in
Authentic Egyptian cuisine with exceptional service. Must-try falafel and molokhia. Highly recommend Baba Hamdi!
The dishes were very good, great welcome , attentive waitress, I recommend!!
The waiter managed to provide very good service despite being alone and there were a lot of people. I asked him for advice on my meal choice and it was delicious. The decor is really pretty. I will definitely go back!
Best restaurant of middle east food in chateauguay and big Montréal I love it Food
They offer an amazing service in top of that I came all the way from Montreal to try the Koshary and they did not disappoint. And I really recommend the mix grill as well. Would come back again
Overall great experience! Tasty food and friendly staff
The food is so fresh. Love the tabouleh salad and the chicken thigh plate. Their rice pudding is delicious. The potatoes with garlic sauce are to die for. I have ordered takeout and delivery, but I am reviewing for my dining experience. When it gets to be quite busy, the service is a little slow (understandably so). The times Ive dined here, there was 1 waiter or waitress. Im assuming they also need to deal with people coming in for takeout, door dash, etc., in addition to waiting tables. Maybe they should hire another helper for busier evenings? Parking: Parking lot shared with another restaurant (a breakfast place). This place is BYOB and there is an SAQ within walking distance.
Very good in every way. Reasonable price.
Best service and falafel in town!! The chef is an amazing man
Service a little slow at first, but food excellent. Beautiful ambiance that enhances the experience. We will return there.
Highly recommended recommended. Imagine Disneyland in your mouth tantalizing your gustatory pallet. Food
We really enjoy this place for its original and authentic atmosphere, the dishes and great staff.
We enjoy it every time and what can we say about the service: impeccable
The food is excellent. The portions are normal and without exaggerations. The employees are kind and very professional. I recommend.
Discovered during the pandemic, we have never been disappointed! Both take out and on site! Our favorite: Egyptian Fetar! Lots of delicious little dishes to share!!
Amazing authentic Egyptian food, the staff are really nice. The service can be a little slow depending on where you are but otherwise all good.
Food is amazing, great experience
Good quality of food. Exceptional flavors. Courteous and warm services. Prices still reasonable.
The best Hummus I have eaten The pita was hot and succulent Salads were good Meal: potato ouf, a pure delight with garlic sauce Meat a little too dry for my taste Otherwise the rice was delicious too Light but tasty dessert after such a big plate Really good tea but expensive $3.99. Per person for a small cup A little music was missing Bring your own wine
Great experience, 5 star meal in my opinion. I ordered takeout for the first time and they offered small desserts/snacks in my bag, on the side, which I wasnt expecting. I was pleasantly surprised. The meal was very good. I will go back to eat in a restaurant next time. I recommend
Excellent service! Relaxing atmosphere. Would definitely go back. You can bring your own wine.
Like at home... Magnificent I recommend and I go back often...
Very expensive and the food was really bad , wont go again
Delicious. A unique restaurant to Chateauguay with really approachable Egytpian cuisine.
Vegetarian options: Lots of choices Kid-friendliness: All tastes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Rarely tasted food that is so good Simply amazing, I absolutely recommend Food
I received a gift card from a friend. What a wonderful spot. From the salad to the tea, everything was to perfection. I will definitely be going back. What are friends for? I think I will also buy another friend a gift card too. Yummy!!!

This restaurant is amazing, they have the most fresh food, tasty and really delicious. I tried hwaoshi, Saturday breakfast and also shawrma ( the best beef shawrma you can find in quebec).
I wish there was a way to encompasse my fathers reaction after I surprised him with 2 of his favorites authentic Egyption meals..... FOR ANYONE SEEKING DELICIOUS FOOD, MADE WITH TRUE LOVE I ASSURE YOU.....YOU WILL NOT REGRET VISITING BABA HAMDI. This beautiful space is tucked away in Chateguy in the most humble of locations....IS A GEM!!!!
Great food and amazing service
Amazing egyptian food, just like ur in Egypt, amazing service and friendly staff. Highly recommended. Love the Kushari
Great experience to discover
Very tasty authentic Egyptian food with a wonderful service and terrific. Environment. Highly recommend
Amazing restaurant, best hummus and falafel I have tried so far. I recommend 100%
Great food, get takeout regularly. Excellent chicken.
Wonderful discovery.
Quiet and pleasant restaurant, warm atmosphere, delicious meal, smiling and welcoming staff... very nice experience, to do again!
Petit endroit intime. Une profusion de plats à partager. Un délice! Déjeuner extrêmement copieux, savoureux, comme ceux que jai adoré en Egypte. Nos invités ont tellement aimé, quils ont même commandés des plats à emporter pour la maison. Cest tout dire. Excellent service, accueil chaleureux. Hâte dy retourner pour découvrir les autres plats.
Very good food, nice variety, very tasty and very good service!
The salads were a bit disappointing (beetroot salad was JUST beetroot, for example), but mains were really tasty!
Excellent breakfast and great service
Good food and service. I like the different exterior and interior look.
Try the famous chicken cooked on the coals
The food was good. The chef adapted to our taste and the atmosphere was perfect.
I recently discovered an Egyptian culinary treasure at this exquisite restaurant. The delicious food transported me to the heart of authentic Egyptian flavors, while the traditional decor added a magical touch to the experience. The exceptionally friendly waitress Assala made our evening even more memorable with her attentive service and thoughtfulness. I highly recommend this place for an unforgettable taste immersion into the culinary culture of Egypt.
Really delicious!!!!!!
The waitress is very welcoming and warm respect for her service I dont recommend the pizza, its bad to avoid any taste, Im sorry for this comment I regret my visit.
Great levantine/Egyptian food at a reasonable price. Portions are generous. You can get a lot of authentic foods here like Koshari and Molokhia which are not often available at fast food options like Boustan or Amir. Restaurant is clean and very well decorated. Food arrives quickly and is priced reasonably.
Alright lets get the obvious out of the way. In this place you will pay in 30$ + However, you do pay for quality. They specialize in grilled and roasted meat with vegetable. Their rice recipe is one of a kind. And their salad are jist as much of a success. The atmosphere is perfect for a familly outing and it look larger on the inside tjan seen from the outside. Definitely recomanding .
The waitress was phenomenal!!! Walked us through the menu. She was super sweet and helpful. Went with her recommendation and did not regret it.
We had a 60th Birthday at Hamdis we were around 25 people everybody just loved the food and the service is excellent and freindly, would deffenetly recommend it!!!
Amazing place , good service, affordable prices and the food is so so good , it s really take me out of Quebec while I was enjoying my food !!! Something that U can t miss it !! And if all this isn t enough, the Service of Vanessa is of another level !!
Very cute restaurant with delicious food and friendly staff. Their salads are amazing. Not the quickest service. The prices are reasonable but they have gone up.
Excellent!
Great place to visit, good food, great service and delicious rice! Everything was stunning!
Love theres food and service
Really good experience
Very good restaurant, lovely ambiance and the food is so tasty. I will definitely return.
I fell for everything. I will go back there
Love everything about it
The little meat that was in the sandwiches was burned for the money it cost!!!! Plus 45 minutes of waiting for two shawarma sandwiches! Really disappointed
Fantastic! It was my first time eating Baba Hamdi. The portion size for my delivery was huge, and definitely worth the $22. The food was seasoned really well and the rice was delicious. Ill definitely eat here again :D
Very delicious food! Never disappointed when I eat there or do take outer delivery.
Wow! is all I can say for my recent experience at Baba Hamdi s. The food and service is incredible. High quality ingredients and fresh food that is absolutely delicious. This restaurant is a must for anyone looking to experience authentic Egyptian cuisine!
Everything was excellent! Beautiful atmosphere, beautiful decor.
I cannot be happy more with the quality, taste, and great service we received from the restaurant owner, and server, best Egyptian food I have yet tried in overall toronto, montreal, and Atlantic provinces.
Wow you have to try and youll be back again and again and again even for take out mmmm
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
One of the best restaurants I ever tried. The food is more than great, the service is amazing. Price is really reasonable. Parking: A lot of spaces
I loved the taste.
