Pas beaucoup de sauce et en plus elle est fade... le riz goute la vieille graisse de boeuf, la salade ne dégage pas la fraicheur , et la viande beaucoup trop seche.

J’adore ce restaurant, j’y vais pendant mes heures de dîner et aussi c’est vraiment pratique après avoir fait ses commissions au Walmart ! J’ai jamais été déçu, c’est toujours bon et le service est super super! En plus c’est super super propre! Je le recommande et le shistaouk est super bon !

Très agréable découverte !! Quel bonheur d'avoir un restaurant avec de si bon plats, aux saveurs libanaise !! Tout était frais et de très bonne qualité et il y a une belle variété de salade de toute sorte !! Nous avons adorés et reviendrons avec grand plaisir ! Merci et bravo

We gave this an honest try & it backfired.... Potatoes were under cooked some potatoes even tasted off with little seasoning... just under fried potatoes, 2 potatoes tasted like a fart in my mouth upon mixing it with the horrifying excuse for hummus. I AM SERIOUS I CAN FIND BETTER HUMMUS IN WALMART!! Garlic sauce was actually good (thank god), rice was fine & chicken was fine but uninspiring and lacked any taste besides being Chicken... Beef was horribly cut for us or they just leave to much fat on the Beef rod, but had better seasoning & taste then the chicken. Overall disappointing & one of the worst amir's I have had the displeasure of "trying". Might be cheaper then Sante Taouk but even at a cheaper price the sacrifice in quality is too profound. Save yourself from a tastebud massacre & pay the average 4$ more to get a QUALITY meal. Even the service is poor they are stingy with the amount of garlic & hummus they give you (which is not enough) before charging extra.

We ordered and my partner and I were in heaven. Its been a long time since we ate real Lebanese. I would have given it 5 stars but my partner found the tabbouleh dry and I found the rice a little dry. I would also have liked to have the lentil rice option. But our shish taouk and potato pitas with garlic sauce my god it gave us memories when we stayed in Montreal/Longueuil. Definitely better than santé taouk

The food is excellent, when paying in money the cook did not take off his gloves and then did not issue an invoice or give the change. 2 glitches which can simply be improved without that I would have been at 5

The pita was so wet that nothing held together, like a leaf in water. Very disappointing.

Very low level Lebanese. Cold chicken, poorly balanced sauce, salad not fresh, crispy rice. The potatoes were good by all accounts. I strongly advise you to go a few more km and try Santé Taouk in Shawinigan Sud.

The food was good but the service was very poor. They also got angry when I asked for extra sauce (which I obviously wanted to pay for) since they put the size of a $2 on my plate.

Assiette shish-taouk le poulet était froid , lassiette nest pas généreuse, il ont prépare mon assiette avec les mêmes gants en nitrile quil ont servi a recueillir largent de la personne avant moi... Je ne suis pas trop dédaigneux mais ça en dit long sur leur critères de salubrité. Allez encourager santé taouk qui sont en tout point supérieur à Amir.

An Amir I am very happy that there is an Amir in Shawinigan, I have been eating Amir for over 20 years and sincerely slightly disappointed not necessarily by the choice or the quantity but more by the quality, the potatoes and the rice are lacking of taste and the beef was burnt. I compare it to what I am used to and honestly the quality is below what Amir usually offers, I will redo my rating in a few weeks but for the moment it is not an Amir.

The service is horrible, puts almost nothing in the pita and gets angry when we ask for more garlic sauce because they barely added any. Very stupid and very bad service I do not recommend it to anyone

First try, disappointed with the service...on the health side the employees pass their hands in their faces near their mouths, make people pay with nitrile gloves and dont wash their hands before returning to handle the food, thats it. is a big NO. When you are in a restaurant, you leave the kitchen, you come back, you wash your hands. As for the food, cold potatoes and cold rice, little meat in the pita. I dont know if Im going to go back to safety, its heartbreaking to see employees handling anything and then touching my food!
