    Lylac has it all: from food to shishas to dessert. Not only can you go to Lylac on a study date, but you can also go on a family dinner or lunch. The menu selection is huge, their meat is outstanding and the potato fries are just out of this world. I would also recommend trying their pizzas. The portions are generous, the service is quick and friendly. The prices are also very reasonable for the portion and quality. You can also ask the waiter to bring you a deck of cards, or traditional board games. As the place is almost always full, I would definitely recommend calling first to make sure there's room for you, I believe you can also make reservations. Overall, Lylac brings the Middle East to Montréal in a very cosy atmosphere.

    One of my favourite places for good food and good ambience. We always take a variety of plates to share and usually at dinner. Tried it last time during lunch and the taouk I took was delicious. I have yet to try the brunch menu. A reservation is. Must on weekends so not to have a long wait. Prices are ok for what you get and the desert is to die for . I highly recommend this place.

    One word to describe this place..it's different. Different, in the most amazing way possible. When I first walked in, I didn't have very high expectations seeing as it was also a lounge (and most lounges I've been to don't serve good food). But this place isn't just a lounge. Their Pizza Soujouk is really good, there are no words to describe it. Along with their garlic sauce, it's superb. As well as their chicken shawarma, just amazing.

    We came here for breakfast! Great clean Lebanese food! We came in at 10:45 the waitress let us sit down until the kitchen was open! Many choices! We also ordered hookah. I wish they used real regular coals . But, it is a good place for good food and hookah! Highly recommend it!

    I've been grabbing cakes from here for a while and they're always a hit!…read more The cakes are nice and moist without being too sweet, though the buttercream can be a bit much for some. I've also tried most of the pastries and they're just as good as the cakes. My favorite is the coffee éclair, it's light, airy and sweet. Honestly, I like it more than the classic éclair. The coffee flavor just takes it up a notch. The icing on top can be a little sweet on its own, but it balances out well with the whole éclair. I always grab one or two when I'm in the area. The lemon raspberry cake is another favorite. It's light with just a hint of tartness, and the poppy seeds in the cake are a nice touch. The zeppoles are perfectly light, not greasy, and just sweet enough. I've also had the vanilla and caramel cake, and it's super soft and moist. The buttercream is on the sweeter side, but it goes really well with the cake. Black forest cake is lightly sweetened and I feel like I can eat a huge slice without it being overwhelming. Overall, this bakery is awesome, with a ton of variety. They've got baked goods, sandwiches, salads, and more. Definitely worth checking out!

The cupcakes were gorgeous, taste was nothing to write home about-- a bit dry and bland. But the cheesecake was very yummy.

    This is a MUST TRY if you are ever in the Montreal area. I saw this on Instagram and I'm sure lots…read moreof other people did since the place was very busy. Every location I went to was full but the line goes by quickly. This specific location is in old Montreal so if you're doing sightseeing it's a great spot to chill. The cafe crema is insane. The texture and flavor of this is something I've never had before. The coffee flavor is strong but not offensively strong. Even if you're not a fan of coffee I'd still suggest you try it. The affogato was lovely with the espresso and gelato mixing it creates that lovely icy texture on the outside. It is more pricey so I'd say the safe crema is the way to go.

    I stumbled upon this gem around the corner from my hotel under less-than-ideal circumstances--we…read morewere heading out at the crack of dawn for a 13-hour tour to Quebec City, and my hotel's breakfast (promised at 6 AM) was MIA at 6:20. Panic mode. Thankfully, this place saved the day with its warm and inviting ambiance. We grabbed coffees and croissants, and the owner was quick and efficient, getting us sorted in no time. Even at that ungodly hour, there were already two locals and a dog chatting with the patron--always a good sign of a neighborhood favorite. Can't complain at all. I'm in Vieux Montreal for a few more days and will definitely be back.
