I love this place, a little pricey but delicious! I just ordered a sishtak pita sandwich with no beets and hot sauce. I was dissatisfied when I started eating.. no hot sauce in sandwich!

Got stomach bug after eating pita shawarma. On top, everytime i am ordering here, its too salty and too garlicky. Last time buying the food here. Better i drive extra mile and buy a good food in Boustan.

Super delicious Lebanese food. Amir can be a bit hit and miss but this location was definitely a hit. Got the shawarma plate to share plus a side of tabouleh and we couldn't finish it all. If I have any complaint, it's that they didn't give us enough of their awesome (and potentially homemade) pickled turnips because I absolutely adore those things.

I went there to meet up with an old friend. Wanted to use bathroom but was not allowed before I ordered. I just drove 400km ... and all I want is to realive myself...has to buy a Coke to go and My friend showed up minutes later. Food was good. Great portions... kafta kababs took 15 minutes to prepare and that was very salty. But I like salty so thats okay I guess. Over all okay for a fast food joint but just a bad experience overall.

Excellent food beating all expectations by a wide margin. Can be highly recommended and is worth of a small detour from both major highways nearby. Polite and helpful staff, very good cook as well. Should come back here some time later.

The food is perfect compared to other restaurants in this genre. The chicken was well cooked and the nutrients inside were fresh. Not to mention the excellent customer service I was given! Very nice and warm people! I highly recommend!!

I have been eating couscous for at least 50 years... I also ate it in Morocco... So I know couscous and its broth very well. I can tell you that what you are served...is not couscous broth but only chicken broth. Several years ago I ate it in one of their branches in downtown Montreal and it was pretty good for a fast food but there! They dont care about the customers! Its almost a shame to serve this to customers! Too bad they no longer pay homage to one of the best meals in North Africa!

Ca fait 2 fois que je viens acheter de la nourriture dans votre restaurant. Lorsque je demande l assiette avec les brochettes de b uf, les 2 hommes au comptoir me demandent de choisir autre chose car c est trop long. Il faudrait l enlever de votre menu si vous ne voulez pas servir cette assiette ou si vous êtes trop fatigué pour la préparer.

Hands down the best Amir restaurant Ive been to. Been to lot of franchises in Montreal and Laval but this takes the crown compared to those. I had pita mix of beef and chicken with potatoes. The potatoes were soft and pair with garlic sauce tasted really good. The pita was full of flavour and I could tell the ingredients were fresh. I must have been lucky or the food is simply amazing here. To top it off, the guys at the counter were very friendly. Would definitely come back and see if I have the same experience another day.

Standard, honest and tasty meals. Very clean in the restaurant section, but leaves something to be desired in the bathrooms.

December 22, 2021

Very disappointed, last time... Ordered three ShishTaouk plates, I asked if it was possible to put the salads separately, no problem until the time to pay when I realized that the bill was much higher than expected ... I ask the cashier the reason and he tells me that I asked for separate dishes and that they cost more... but $7 more is excessively excessive. He should have informed me beforehand when I asked the question that there was a supplement, when I told him about it, he simply told me that it is like that everywhere and that he does not never notifies customers. Regarding the food it was good but I have seen much better

★★

I order a mixed plate and ask for no hummus, so I ask for more garlic sauce to compensate. I arrive to pay and there is an extra $2 for a measly extra spoonful of garlic sauce. $2 for a teaspoon of garlic sauce is a steal for me.

A smile? Just a smile. That would have added an extra star. And for the rest, when we ask for a threesome, we necessarily want something to drink. If one of the menu items does not come as a trio, say the information up front, not after preparing the order and pretending that nothing happened. A blatant lack of good manners... a big sigh for having repeated it when he asked me a question. A second big sigh for not knowing in half a second if I wanted potatoes, rice and salad. It was a VERY bad experience. Not 0, but -100 for the PITTABLE service I received.

We stopped to get two chicken shawarma plates but we received one with chicken and one with beef. I mentioned that I wanted chicken but the boor at the checkout told me that it was the sharwama dish without want to modify it. We often stop at the one in Beauharnois or the one in Hudson and we can tell you that the food is much better and that the staff at these two places listen carefully to what we order from them. We are really disappointed with our stop, the food was not up to par with the other Amirs we go to and above all the staff did not have the courtesy and kindness to serve the customers well. Its lucky that weve already eaten at other branches of Amir because we wouldnt go back there again. Next time we will stop at the one in Beauharnois, the service and cleanliness are of better quality.

Horrible service! My family and I always buy here and have been since it s opened. The quality of the food is incredible but the people serving are rude and unpleasant. I get we all have bad days (I work in public service so trust me I understand) but it s every single time. It s unfortunate because I always recommend this Amir s in particular to people I know but I won t be anymore.

December 22, 2020

We are in COVID times and the staff hardly cares: NO protective equipment! I should have turned around and gone somewhere else but I was there. Politeness, smiling and giving customers time to choose their dishes does not seem to be part of the service... but I was there. I should have listened to my feeling and changed restaurants because I ended up in the emergency room with food poisoning! I will never set foot in this place again.

Stay away from this Amir. Condescending staff with no manners. If you take a 5 choice vegetarian plate they force you to take the hummus. Even the Amirs parent company confirmed that they are not supposed to operate this way. Hey the big ques that you dont understand in the word choice??
