Better fast food alternative, Convenient location and great Lebanise cuisine. Two guys at the counter made ordering it fast and pleasant. Place has tables for dining as well. Definitely will come for more of that fresh salad taste.

Was in Varennes for a Blood drive, very nice service, but food lacks a little bit of love. Did not tase very fresh, and could have been warmer when served. I made suggestions for menue , but very clean, a little over priced, but still ok for a lunch.

The falafels are super dry and not very good in my opinion (cooked in the microwave) I have eaten in many other Lebanese restaurants and I cannot compare the quality of the service at this very disappointing restaurant. The positive point is that the potatoes are good I prefer to take a detour to Boucherville for better quality ingredients, especially for a larger portion and many more vegetarian and vegan options!

I ordered the shich taouk pita with garlic potatoes, really disappointed with the soft and cold potatoes, the pita was very dry and the meat too, I dont think I would recommend it

I went to get my supper. No smiles from the two people who were present (employees). I had a plate of shish taouk, potatoes and house salad. I liked the chicken, it was tender and large pieces. The potatoes had not been peeled and were dry. The garlic sauce (2 small cups/plate) was lumpy and had an aftertaste. I was disappointed. Having tried other Lebanese restaurants (Amir, Bacha), this is the place where the portions are the smallest.

Billing error, I have to argue to pay the right price. Vegetarian plate but we forgot to put the falafels. Dry shawarma and soggy salads. Disgusting, I dont understand how this restaurant survives by selling unsanitary food.

The food is good, the food is fresh, but small portions, few meats, too expensive good job

★★★

Plate of shish taouk, Why limit the client to 2 accompaniment choices only...? It would be so simple to accommodate your customer, Charge extra if necessary, but please give us the choice rather than imposing

★★★★★
December 23, 2022

Excellent service from the employees, but the star of the show was the food!!! Nothing to do with Amir or Basha, its in a totally different class. Being of Lebanese origin myself I can say that if you want to eat traditional food with real flavors of Lebanon I highly recommend Taouk!!

I always found the meal good, the fresh ingredients. I have trouble with sauces every time. The garlic sauce tastes like old garlic and the sesame sauce is very bitter. I make my own garlic sauce when I get home. To work because the rest is great!!

Unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience today. Sunday afternoon, empty room. The man behind the counter didnt seem to want to be there. Forced smile. No pleasure in doing his job. Sad. The pita breads were dry, the chicken bland and limp...I ate but didnt enjoy it. Lack of taste, texture. I have often had much better shish taouks elsewhere. The place, the server and the food were sad. I wont go back there again. It seems to me that it was better before. New administration? Too bad they dont take more pride in serving good Lebanese food.

I find it very unfortunate when the company makes an order error where they forget to deliver part of our order. I called to advise of the situation and asked that they send us 4 desserts since it was a family 4 pitas and no they refused, they only wanted to give me 1 dessert. Ive been waiting for almost 20 minutes for my potatoes to go with the pitas. Not very good customer service.

I ordered at 3:00 p.m. to have a meal delivered at 4:00 p.m. to an address located 15 minutes drive from their restaurant. At 4:25 p.m. still no meal and they have the nerve to tell me that the delivery guy is new and that he probably encountered traffic..it was well worth getting an hour early, frankly not reliable, too bad . I will no longer do business with this restaurant.
