a closeup of a sandwich
Angela G.

I love places that are just about the food. Tiny and not alot of space to eat which is just fine - I ate in my car! Service was quick - I ordered a spicy falafel and it was pretty tasty! Super jam packed with all the toppings. A great sandwich on the go and super filling and cheap! Keep Eating, Angela

We're sure you've heard of and have probably been to @falafelstjacques before. The very tasty falafel pita are always delicious and very satisfying and the long list of Vegan menu items never dissapoint. Falafel Pita

Falafel sandwich all dressed. And spicy. And some potato wedges. Yum.

"I am going to take you for the best falafel of your life." That's what my friend said when I told her I was visiting Montreal. She arranged it so my last meal before my flight home was at Falafel St Jacques and I'm so, so glad she did because it was honestly one of the best things I ate during my last visit to the city! And, yes, it may *actually* be the best falafel I've had in my life (so far, anyway). The place is VERY small; they expect their customers to make decisions and order VERY fast. So be prepared for that. I was not. I felt like I didn't have enough time to take everything in (like: there's this entire glass case of glorious salads... I definitely would have gotten some potato salad and some of the vegetarian orange ginger chicken if I had been able to process what was going on and ask what was in the case as nothing was labeled). My dining companion had my back though... She ordered us: 1. Falafel Pita "all dressed" and spicy (this doughy pita was overloaded with an abundance of flavorful, moist falafel and a whole bunch of other stuff... hummus? tahini? cucumbers? tomatoes? red and white cabbage? love? I couldn't eat it all but I tried so desperately to because it was just. so. darn. good.). I ordered us: 2. Baked House Potatoes (you know the kind: they look like little wedges and have a nice brown, spiced coating on the outside, and are all fluffy on the inside? Well, when we first walked into the restaurant there was a dad and a young daughter eating at a table and they must have overheard me ask my friend what I should get. He quickly interjected that I *had* to get the potato wedges and then forced me - in the friendliest way possible - to try some of his. So that's how that magic happened). The place is busy, busy, busy. People are constantly streaming in and out of here, so my advice to you newcomers is this: look at the menu beforehand, go in, shout your order as quickly as possible, grab it the literal moment it's ready (and not a second after), and head out. I can see why this place is locally loved, and trust me: if it was in my neighborhood I would also be taking my outta town friends for "the best falafels of their lives" (so far).

Falafel pittas, wedges, vegan chicken pitta . Delicious.

Tucked away in a corner of a busy street, falafel St.jaques is a hidden, delicious gem. The interior itself gives the impression of a fast food , hipster joint that's always packed full of people, and contains a varied menu of tasty treats. The greatest element of this place is that everything is fully vegan, as impossible as that is to believe with items such as General Tao chicken on their menu, so caters to any individuals tasebuds. I ordered the falafel pitta with the wedges and mint lemonade. The pitta itself was packed full of falafel, salad, hummus and more, making it well worth the price (which is incredibly reasonable) and really filling! I couldn't even finish mine! The lemonade was refreshing and accompanied the meal well, and the wedges were crispy and fluffy. Would definitely give this place a visit again!

As much as I used to love this place & gave it a 5 star two years ago, my experience today seemed to have gone downhill. I had the falafel plate which came with 4 falafels and a choice of three salads. The falafel didn't taste the same, the salads were so-so. I've had much better and fresher falafel at other places which I will not mention in this review. Definitely not a 5 stars in my books.

I've been meaning to check out this spot for ages! I've only heard good things but alas, hidden off away my usual prowling grounds, I never got the chance. Well along comes the pandemic and hello at home delivery! I ordered a combo which included the pita sandwich, two salads, and a soft drink; price was beyond reasonable and the food was fresh and oh so so good!! That shawarma pita sandwich was what dreams are made of! Soft pita, creamy hummus, tender meat and burst of delicious Mediterranean flavours. Sigh, my pita was devoured in record time and I already want more....

Upon entering the restaurant, I'm instantly reminded of the late nights waiting at a halal cart in nyc after a night out. This restaurant itself is not the cleanest and rather chaotic on weekend nights. Theres usually a long line to order, but it moves rather quickly and efficiently. The staff members aren't the friendliest, but they get the job done LOL. You'll find a bunch of hungry and probably drunk people sitting at the cafeteria styled seats at night. The food is the main selling point here though. I've gotten the mixed platter and shawarma platter; both with generous servings of protein all doused in a flavorful sauce. Ordered the poutine recently and was also impressed how much they loaded the protein. It was a little on the saltier side and wished they had more cheese curds, but still pretty enjoyable. The fries were also more like small potato wedges. I've recommended this place countless times for almost any point of the day, but they especially hit the spot after a long night.

She was also on her way back home that day so we wanted to send her off with some good food memories. We needed spicy, vegetarian, and filling. The way I was googling, flipping through Eater. Woo - the pressure! Sumac was it because like who doesn't love falafel?? (If you don't, then be quiet and keep scrolling). We kept it simple with 3 pitas and a large order of spicy lamb fries without the lamb, but with the spice. I've never seen such huge pita in my life. Even at the very bottom there were still falafel. And the fries. I could cry. The pita was very soft and flavorful. The food was a work of art. Things: -chair and bench style seating. I was comfortable in the chair which is always a win. -service was excellent. You choose a seat then order at the counter. Someone clears your plates and mess. -they don't take AMEX
