The prunes lend a mild sweetness to the rich flavorful sauce spiced with cinnamon etc. A bowl of rice on the side and pita allow you to soak up the juices. The meat falls off the bone.

Go there and you won't regret it. Unfortunately, we were too full to try the baklava. Thumbs up.

Our orders were 2 x lamb Gyros, one beef and cheese, and one chicken. Ordering at the counter was quick and all of our orders were ready for garnishing in under 5-minutes. The veggies were fresh, the sauce flavourful, and the flatbread warm and wonderfully crisped. The sandwich fit perfectly into our hands and went down deliciously. About half way through our meals everyone agreed that what we were having tasted like 'another one'. However, by the time we were done everyone had their hunger satisfied. (We were a bit disappointed that another one was no longer needed.) Decor is utilitarian yet on the warm side, the restaurant is not large but we there was enough seating for our party of 4 to sit together comfortably. We'd definitely come back.

Located up a small road off of Rue Saint-Jean, the restaurant is but a small pocket…read more I came for the lamb couscous but apparently they don't serve that anymore (despite it still being on the menu). I opted for the prince's couscous which had lamb and chicken, she got the pastilla. We also got some Moroccan mint tea. The tea came out pretty sweet, like a southern sweet tea. But the mint was fresh and tasted great. Unfortunately, we had to suffer through some fairly loud and high-pitched Moroccan music while waiting on our food. I'm sad to report that my food was basically reheated leftovers. I heard the microwave door slamming and could tell my chicken was definitely reheated because it was dry, hard, and not warmed all the way through. The couscous itself was fresh but wasn't fluffy-- it had enough wetness to it that it just wasn't right. My wife got the pastilla, a new dish for her. It was probably the freshest-made item, but not her thing since it was basically ground chicken and parsley in a pastry dusted with cinnamon and almonds. The wife was our waitress and she was sweet. She spoke very little English, so her husband translated from the back of the restaurant. The husband running the restaurant was snapping green beans and dropped one, I watched as he picked it up off the floor and placed it into the bowl with the other beans. The issue for us is that he seemed to have very little care for his restaurant and his customers. In all, we would not return.

We were wandering around the old city of Quebec looking for someplace to enjoy a nice meal. We did…read morenot have any reservations but thought it would not be difficult to find a place on Sunday night. Boy, were we wrong!! After much aimless wandering around we found this place. It was definitely not on the list for tourists as it was only half full when we got there, and everyone but us were local (speaking French). We had not planned or even thought of a Moroccan restaurant while in Vieux Quebec but (spoiler) we were very glad we did! We ordered the mixed sampler for appetizer, and a couscous royal and lamb and artichoke tagine. The appetizer was excellent! A mixture of clearly homemade items, all of which were delicious without exception! The lamb tagine was excellent, as was the couscous. Both were hearty plates infused with subtle spices leading to an excellent result. Better than most places I have eaten in Morocco. Like most Moroccan restaurants, alcohol is not served. However, customers are welcome to bring their own. As for the main courses, both were outstanding! If you like Moroccan food, or want to try something different and delicious, this place is for you!! Very reasonably priced, intimate interior atmosphere, and highly personal service by the wife of Redouan the owner/chef, Khadija. Highly recommended!! 5/5.

Loved Shady Cafe!…read more This was my first Lebanese experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's clearly a popular spot with the locals too. We got there about 15 minutes before the noon lunch rush and were served almost immediately, but by the time we sat down there was a line all the way to the street! It probably didn't help that us Americans couldn't read the menu and our translator had to order all of our food :-) This is a premade type of place so food is already prepped you order at the counter and your plate is done by the time you get to the end of the line. This makes it a great spot for lunch. I had the falafel, potatoes, and some sort of cucumber feta salad... all delicious. I could've eaten an entire plate of those potatoes with the garlic sauce :) Highly recommend!

There were pita wraps on the menu as well as couscous, but my choice was the mixed meat platter, which came with sliced chicken breast and a meaty, tender slice of roasted lamb leg, along with fried potatoes tossed in seasoning, a spicy aioli for dipping, and three different kinds of salads: a white cabbage slaw, a carrot slaw with cranberries, and a mixed bean salad. The chicken was on the dry side, but the lamb was tender, the potatoes were nicely seasoned, and the salads were all fresh and delicious. Though slow, the service was super friendly, and the atmosphere felt exotic with oriental decorations throughout the dining room.

Definitely a spot to visit to shop and have a bite to eat while shopping. Zeitoun has almost the whole second floor and the mezzanine for their patrons. There are many two seaters on the stepped mezzanine dining area, many long tables and entire sections for larger parties to use. They serve Lebanese fusion and we were there for their take on poutine. For 14$ + 7$ (extra chicken), you get a large poutine topped with chicken kebab and sauce, a nice meal for two for the large portion. They serve other foods like pita wraps and hummus and is fully halal. Definitely will be visiting again just for their La Poutine Zeitoun.
