It is always a great experience to dine at Elissar.
The staff is friendly and respectful. Their pandemic protocol is impeccable.
I will return.
The food was delicious as usual. We tried different foods on the menu all extremely good.
Such a nice family who own this restaurant. . Definitely one of my favorite restaurants.
A feast. Very intimate (we were there on a Tuesday evening) and our waitress was excellent!
First time eating at Elissar and would definitely highly recommend this restaurant. The owners were so friendly. The food and wine were delicious. As a matter of fact I am bringing some friends with me there Friday night for dinner. Outstanding
Elissar is a hidden gem. The food and service are always perfect. The staff is friendly. The overall experience is always pleasant. They have implemented a COVID protocol that made me feel safe. I am looking forward to my next visit at their establishment.

Great food, great service and great ambiance!! We enjoyed our night!!
We enjoyed everything about Elissar. The food was excellent, very fresh and elegantly presented. The service was pleasant and efficient and the Lebanese wine has become our new favourite. I especially like the quality stemware, flatware and dinner service. A visit from the owner to ensure that we were enjoying our meal was much appreciated.
The food was good and very fresh, which is important and the saving grace for our experience dining here on Mother's Day. I had made the reservation well in advance and stopped by to confirm it 3 days earlier and to see if I could choose a table because we were 7 people. When we arrived our table had been given out. Strike 1. There was not a single flower on the table, no Happy Mother's Day greeting. Strike 2
The waiter who was super frazzled, wished me a Happy Birthday! So we just srtarted to laugh. Olives and pickled turnips were given out to diners who arrived after us and we had to ask for ours. We really did enjoy the food that we ordered. We had to ask for our bill. When the waiter brought it he suggested we check if it was accurate. It was not. We didn't expect it to be. Anyways the food was good, wait staff frazzled, quite a few hiccus and actually quite comical. There seemed to be chaos everywhere, not a good sign. Strike 3?
We loved our experience at Elissar. The food was delicious. We had various appetizers like hummus and fattouche. For the main course, we had the shish kebab and it was amazing. We tried Lebanese wine for the first time and it was very nice. Last but not least, our server was extremely attentive and helpful with his suggestions. We will definitely be going back!
Outstanding, as always. If you haven’t at least TRIED Elissar, you need to put that right, immediately - and you will instantly become a regular.
Authentic Lebanese food, prepared with skill and love; friendly and knowledgeable service; decent wine list too.
Be prepared for the temptation of licking your plate clean, and always say ‘yes’ to pickled turnip!
This was our third visit to Elissar. My wife and I are both of Syrian descent and we make many of the dishes on the menu, which makes us even more difficult to please when it comes to fine Lebanese/Syrian cuisine. So we mean it when we say that we've never been disappointed in Elissar. It's more than not being disappointed - we are delighted to eat here. The ingredients are always fresh (the fatouche is amazing!), the presentation outstanding, the prices (including the wine) very reasonable, the decor charming, and the service, above all else, incomparably friendly and courteous. We have the good fortune of living about five minutes away, but we would urge anyone to make the trip to enjoy the food, the staff and the ambiance of this little jewel of Lebanese dining.
Absolutely lovely experience! The food was amazing, the service exceptional and the ambiance very relaxed. I will definitely want to go back soon!
We had a lovely evening despite the horrible weather. Not many people but the food was excellent as always as well as the attention to details.
A Real Gem!!!
Fresh, Delicious Lebanese Food. As good and authentic as Lebanon.
Service was also exceptional.
The food and service were outstanding. Authentic Lebanese food. The servers and owner explain everything and checks on you often. Fresh, fresh fresh!
Best Lebanese food in Montreal!

Wonderful food and service. Would definitely recommend
As usual, superb food, quality ingredients, attention to details and good service. Also you can have a real conversation without screaming at your neighbor or missing half the comments. What a total pleasure. Thank you. An oasis of peace and gastronomy.
Elissar is a gem and helps us discover good Lebanese cuisine. Nice owners !
Really nice option driving from Montreal! The 30 minutes drive is worth the service.
